Police responded to reports of cars being driven dangerously near Marrowbone Millennium Park on the Oldpark Road late on Wednesday. Officers found one abandoned car in the area and a second car leaving the scene at speed. The police gave chase and the helicopter was called in when speeds reached in excess of 100 mph. The car, a Volkswagon Golf, sped off through Newtownabbey, Doagh, Ballymena, Broughshane and Carnlough. The pursuit ended when the vehicle crashed on the Munie Road, between Glenarm and Ballymena, at about 01:10 BST. The occupants of the car made off as police arrived at the scene, but the vehicle was seized and is being examined by forensic officers. Insp Paul Noble said: "The car has now been recovered and will be forensically examined. "The gates to the Millennium Park were damaged as a result of the earlier incident and the abandoned car set alight in the grounds of the park. "Enquiries are ongoing at present and I would appeal to anyone with any information to contact 101."
A PSNI helicopter was called out during a high-speed police chase across 40 miles of road in County Antrim.

The Public Accounts Committee says "it is not convinced" that the first phase of the £56bn rail line - linking London and Birmingham - will open at the end of 2026 as planned. It also urged the government to clarify the route and costs for the second phase, linking to Manchester and Leeds. A government spokesperson said the project was "on time and on budget". "We are keeping a tough grip on costs, and pressing ahead with plans for Phase Two - with further details due to be announced this autumn," the spokesperson for the Department for Transport added. HS2 - waiting for clarity on phase two HS2 boss quits to join Rolls-Royce New transport secretary backs HS2 In its report the committee acknowledged there had been "considerable progress" on HS2 since its first report on the project in 2013. However, committee chair Meg Hillier said both parliament and the public were "still in the dark about crucial details - not least when the railway will open, how much it is expected to cost and precisely where it will go". The biggest question hanging over HS2 is quite basic really. Where's it going to go? The route for phase one linking London to Birmingham has been nailed down, but the part that forks off to Manchester and Leeds is still up in the air. We were meant to get details in 2014. That slipped to 2015. Now it's "by the end of the year". The latest proposal, announced just a few months ago, cuts through hundreds of homes on a brand new Doncaster housing estate which isn't even finished yet. Local MP Ed Miliband (remember him?) is furious about it. Three years ago I interviewed a Cheshire farmer called John Keleher who wasn't sure if the line would cut through the middle of his land. He got back in touch recently saying, "obviously we know nothing more today than we did when you were with us nearly 30 months ago, as the decision for HS2 Phase 2b has been put off yet again". The government's under a lot of pressure to remove at least some of that uncertainty from ordinary people's lives. The committee said the cost estimates for the second phase for the rail link were "volatile", and £7bn higher than the agreed £28.5bn funding. It noted that £9bn of potential savings had been identified, but said it was unclear whether these could be made without "adversely affecting the expected benefits of the programme". HS2's recent recommendation of a new route through South Yorkshire, scrapping a proposed station in Meadowhall in favour of a stop in Sheffield city centre, was cited by the committee as an example of the "significant uncertainty that remains about plans for phase 2". "Lack of clarity over plans for HS2 in South Yorkshire highlights what is at stake for communities and local economies, and why government must explain its intentions and the basis for its decisions in a transparent manner," added Ms Hillier. HS2, the firm building the route, said in a statement that it was "making good progress in building confidence in our programme plan, and will continue to do so over the coming months". The report comes just days after HS2 announced that current boss Simon Kirby would leave the firm to take up a senior post at Rolls-Royce. Yates, 47, made over 200 appearances for Rovers as a player between 1988 and 1993, helping win promotion in 1990. He returned as the Pirates' kit man in 2013 and was made first-team coach by manager Darrell Clarke in 2014, but is now leaving to move back to Greece. "I will always be grateful to Darrell for giving me a coaching role at this, my club," he said in a club statement.
MPs say the HS2 rail link needs a "realistic timetable" and believe the current schedule is "overly ambitious". [NEXT_CONCEPT] Bristol Rovers first team coach Steve Yates will leave the club at the end of the current season to return to Crete.
Provide a concise summary of this excerpt.
Clark drilled in a shot on 26 minutes after Lee Ashcroft's effort had been blocked following a free kick. The win lifts Dunfermline up to eighth place, while the hosts are still seeking a league win this season. The Pars almost snatched a second goal on the break when Michael Moffat struck a post in stoppage time. It was Dunfermline's first league win since beating the Buddies in September, but again the home side will be wondering how they did not win a match in which they created the bulk of the chances. The defeat leaves St Mirren seven points adrift of Dumbarton. The last time the teams met in the Saturday evening game they conjured up seven goals and it looked like they might deliver another cracker after a brisk opening. Jason Naismith had a shot well saved by Sean Murdoch in the visitors' goal inside four minutes, then Lewis Morgan nodded just wide before Clark tested Saints keeper Scott Gallacher with a header. Clark then put Dunfermline ahead with his fifth goal of the season, the striker providing a clinical finish in the box after some poor defending provided him with the opportunity. Kyle McAllister saw a good effort saved by Murdoch before the Dunfermline keeper produced a sensational stop from a flashing David Clarkson header right on half time to preserve the narrow interval lead. Saints continued to press after the break and Stevie Mallan brought out another good save from Murdoch before Clark should really have put Dunfermline further ahead but Gallacher did well to block the striker's effort. Referee Nick Walsh was attracting the wrath of the home support as the game became tense and he lectured both Saints boss, Jack Ross and Pars assistant, Sandy Clark, for a row in the technical area after yet another contentious decision. Both men continued their bickering at the final whistle. John Sutton should really have done better after Murdoch spilled a 70 minute Lewis Morgan effort but time and time again the home side just could not convert the chances they made despite throwing Tom Walsh and Lawrence Shankland on as second half substitutes. Moffat hit the woodwork in the dying seconds when a counter-attack caught the hosts short but there was no time for St Mirren to benefit from the reprieve. St Mirren manager Jack Ross: "The goal we conceded was poor and while we did not play particularly well in the first 30 minutes or so, we did much better after that. "But we need to be much more ruthless when the chances come our way and although Sean Murdoch had some good saves we probably did not do enough to win the game, but could easily have got something out of it. "The performance levels in the last three home matches have improved. We just need to finish the chances we make to make some real progress." Dunfermline boss Allan Johnston: "I'm delighted to get our first away league win of the season and it is nice to dig one out in terms of a result for a change. "St Mirren put us under a lot of pressure in the second half and the players deserve a lot of credit for showing character as in big games, big players step up and ours did that tonight. "But it is only one game and one result and we now need to put a strong run of those together to get up the table. I'm confident we can do that." Match ends, St. Mirren 0, Dunfermline Athletic 1.

Shereen Mirza, 21, had denied between 15 May 2012 and 2 April 2013, falsely claiming she had been sexually attacked and raped in the King George V park. The jury of 12 women and three men, however, found her guilty after a nine-day trial earlier this month. She was sentenced at Edinburgh Sheriff Court. Sheriff Michael O'Grady told Mirza: "In many years in these courts in one capacity or another, I have come across the whole range of hateful, hideous and downright bizarre things that people do to each other and the world at large, but I doubt, however, in all that time that I have encountered a course of conduct so strange, so needless and so hard to fathom as yours. "It is also a course of conduct that is selfish, devious and persistent to a truly remarkable degree." During the allegations Mirza was a pupil at Edinburgh Academy. Det Sgt Michael Leask, of Police Scotland, said the investigations into Mirza's claims of rape placed a huge strain on resources. When she was called in to be charged and searched before being detained, the officers found a journal she had been keeping. It contained names of rapists and sexual offenders from around Scotland with details of their crimes and sentences. There were reports on the effects of marijuana and alcohol on sexual behaviour, and quotes such as "I will kill you".
A woman who claimed she was raped twice by the same man in the same Edinburgh park, five months apart, has been jailed for two years.

It follows its publication of a report claiming Alamuddin's mother objected to their marriage on religious grounds. The story, published earlier this week, led Clooney to accuse the Mail of "irresponsibility". "We accept Mr Clooney's assurance that the story is inaccurate," said a statement from the Mail Online. "We have removed the article from our website and will be contacting Mr Clooney's representatives to discuss giving him the opportunity to set the record straight." Earlier this week, the Mail claimed Alamuddin's mother, Baria, wished her daughter to be married within the relatively small Druze sect. The Druze are a religious sect with an estimated 700,000 members, mostly in Lebanon, Syria, Israel and Jordan, whose beliefs are based on Islam but also incorporate elements of other religions. The report, published online on Monday and then in print on Tuesday, in an amended form, said "close family friends" had told them that Baria Alamuddin had been "telling half of Beirut" that her daughter "could do better". In a piece published by USA Today, Clooney denied his fiancee's mother was a member of the Druze community and asserted that she was "in no way against the marriage". He went on to accuse the Mail of putting his family and friends "in harm's way" and potentially "inciting violence" with its "completely fabricated" story". "The irresponsibility, in this day and age, to exploit religious differences where none exist, is at the very least negligent and more appropriately dangerous," the actor wrote. Clooney's engagement to Alamuddin, a London-based barrister who specialises in human rights cases, was confirmed by her chambers in April. In its statement, the Mail Online insisted its story had not been "a fabrication" but had been "supplied in good faith by a reputable and trusted freelance journalist". "She based her story on conversations with a long-standing contact who has strong connections with senior members of the Lebanese community in the UK and the Druze in Beirut." "We only became aware of Mr Clooney's concerns this morning and have launched a full investigation." MailOnline is the world's most-read English newspaper site and receives more than 11 million visits each day.
George Clooney has received an apology from the Mail Online "for any distress caused" by a story about his upcoming marriage to Amal Alamuddin.

In his column in The Rugby Paper former Wales and Ospreys wing Williams said he spoke to the Ospreys flanker, 26, "a week after" the incident in March. "He said he briefly lost his sight at the hospital, which is just frightening," wrote Williams. Tipuric missed the rest of last season and Wales' June tour to New Zealand. The 2013 British and Irish Lion suffered a heavy blow to the head as he fell from a line-out in Wales' 67-14 Six Nations win. Ospreys and the Welsh Rugby Union both declined to comment. Concussion has become an often controversial topic in collision sports, including rugby union and American Football. Williams referred to Tipuric's experience while backing his former regional and international team-mate to be a regular in the Wales line-up. Tipuric has returned to training ahead of the 2016-17 season. Williams wrote: "He was probably the most skilful forward I ever played with. "Wales talk about expanding their game and doing what New Zealand and Australia do between forwards and backs. "Tipuric is the ideal man to do exactly that." Dr Barry O'Driscoll, a former medical advisor to World Rugby, says he is alarmed by Williams' comments about Tipuric's concussion. "It doesn't surprise me and it does scare me," he said. "It's very common in concussion that on the field straightaway you get stars and you get visual disturbance. You're much, much less likely to get loss of vision, but maybe afterwards you can. "It's significant that he was off for a significant length of time. "We're stabbing in the dark to a greater extent about concussion because we are not quite sure exactly what the consequences in the medium to long term are going to be. "We don't know exactly what to look out for as far as warning players that this may cause you trouble in the future. "We know so little about it that the more we're getting to know about it, the more worrying in a way it is because there's no good news coming out about it."
Justin Tipuric told Shane Williams he "briefly lost his sight" after the flanker was concussed playing for Wales against Italy in the 2016 Six Nations.

Media playback is not supported on this device Around 90,000 people will pack into Wembley Stadium on Saturday to see IBF heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua attempt to add the vacant WBA belt to his collection when he faces the division's once dominant force Wladimir Klitschko. A 14-year age gap between the 27-year-old Briton and a fighter he once assisted as a sparring partner means some pundits have styled the bout as apprentice meets master. But it's Joshua who starts as odds-on favourite. Does he justify that status? BBC Sport asked some familiar faces from the world of boxing about how they see things shaping up and, of course, we want your verdict too. If you are viewing this page on the BBC News app please visit the BBC Sport website to vote. Media playback is not supported on this device Lennox Lewis, the last man to be undisputed heavyweight champion, told BBC Radio 5 live: "Now is the perfect time for Joshua, because Wladimir Klitschko has a chink in his armour in getting beaten by Tyson Fury. "With the age aspect of Klitschko, he doesn't have the legs, the power that he used to. There are a lot of different factors going on in his life as well. "I believe Joshua is more focused. Does he want to be undisputed champion? Absolutely." Did you know? Lewis, Joshua and Klitschko all won Olympic gold but only Joshua and the late Joe Frazier became world champions while still Olympic champion. Former world super-middleweight champion Richie Woodhall: "Klitschko controls the fight better when people are going to him. He's a master at adjusting his feet and keeping a gap, an absolute master. "I think the victory for Joshua will come by boxing at a distance and making Klitschko come forward. "I see Joshua winning the fight in the mid to late rounds, around the seventh or eighth. I think Joshua will stop him eventually and catch him with a solid shot. "At 41, you have to ask how long Klitschko can go on at this level. It will take a hell of a performance to beat Joshua, who I don't think will come out swinging, but will box intelligently. If he goes wading in, he could walk in to a trap." Did you know? Joshua has spent less than two hours in the ring as a professional on his way to 18 knockout wins in 18 fights. Former super-middleweight world champion Carl Froch, who beat George Groves at Wembley Stadium in 2014: "This is Joshua's first real test at world level. This is his acid test and against a veteran who can punch, box and move to survive when he needs to. "I think Joshua will be nervous. Wembley Stadium will add to those nerves and I don't think they will help him. I don't think he will enjoy it like I did. Purely because there is a lot of pressure on him - he's expected to win and has this massive task. "He needs to try and enjoy it. They say cometh the hour cometh the man. He really needs to switch on and live up to what everyone expects of him." Did you know? Joshua's weight of 17st 12lbs is the heaviest of his career to date. Peter Fury, who trained nephew Tyson to beat Klitschko, told BBC Radio 5 live: "Klitschko probably folds his bed sheets a certain way. So what do you give someone who is a perfectionist? Give him everything he hates. Upset his rhythm, fire shots from all angles. "I think it's too soon for Joshua. I think his boxing skills leave a lot to be desired. I think he gets hit far too easy, especially with the jab. On a world level you can't be open like that. "I think a lot of it is inexperience. Ultimately if you've got a leaky defence in the heavyweight division, I don't care if you have dynamite in both hands, you are coming unstuck sooner or later." Did you know? Klitschko has knocked out 53 of his 68 opponents. Former two-weight world champion Paulie Malignaggi: "It's a matter of how much Klitschko has left. At his age, it's probably not a good thing to have had a long lay-off. If he has anything left, he can trouble Joshua. The flicking of the jab, following it with the right hand - it can hurt Joshua, who doesn't have a lot of head movement. "I think Joshua is going to try to take it to Klitschko and be the boss. Joshua will try to counter the jab with his own right hand. In the end, I think youth will be too much, but Klitschko does have that dynamite right hand." Did you know? Klitschko could become one of the oldest world heavyweight champions, though George Foreman leads the way, capturing the honour aged 45. Media playback is not supported on this device Former world heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko told BBC Radio 5 live: "I've never seen my brother so concentrated. "I want to say that Joshua is a great fighter, and has great skills, but he has never been at such a high level. He looks relaxed, like it will be easy. It will not be. "Everyone has weaknesses; Wladimir's is his concentration. If he is 100% concentrated, Joshua has no chance. Ask me about speed, power, experience, Wladimir is better." Did you know? Vitali had three spells as world heavyweight champion. Wladimir has two to his name so far. Media playback is not supported on this device BBC Radio 5 live analyst Steve Bunce: "I don't think Joshua can outbox Klitschko. I want to see a little bit of nerves, I want to see him sucking in some air, I want to see some sort of fear. If we don't see that then whisper it, it makes him almost inhuman. "Can Wladimir look like any of the old Wladimirs? Even a bad old Wladimir should be enough to beat this kid Anthony Joshua. I think an awful lot has been placed on the assumption, the dream, the hope, that Wladimir at 41 has nothing left. If that's not the case then we are in for a tricky night. "Joshua used his brain at the Olympics. That side of his game is there. Has he enough brain against a decent Klitschko?" Did you know? Anthony Joshua only took up boxing in 2007, five years prior to his Olympic win. He had athletic pedigree though and ran 11.6 seconds for 100m aged 14. Media playback is not supported on this device WBC world heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder: "My heart is with Joshua, my mind is with Klitschko. I think experience will play its part. With experience you've seen things before and are more able to capitalise when you face them again. "Can you pull the trigger? Can your body react as fast as you see it? That's the only thing with Klitschko. Sometimes age is nothing but a number and it's about what's in your head." Did you know? Klitschko weighed in 5lbs lighter than when he lost to Tyson Fury in 2015. Promoter Eddie Hearn told BBC Radio 5 live: "There is a chance in this fight Joshua could be completely out of his depth. And there is a chance he goes out there and is the fighter we believe he is and he dismantles Klitschko. "I love Klitschko because he's a competitor. To tame the young lion would probably be the greatest night of his career. "If Joshua wins he becomes the biggest star in British sport and in the world of boxing."

It is hoped the regeneration - including the partial pedestrianisation of Union Street - could create 5,500 jobs and an extra £280m in income a year. Dozens of projects have been put forward by architects BDP after a public consultation. Council leader Jenny Laing told Wednesday's meeting it was a "once in a generation opportunity". A delegation of leading city figures started the meeting by offering support to the masterplan, with Prof Ferdinand von Prondzynski of Robert Gordon University saying it was time for action after a "number of false starts". Francis Glare, of BDP, told councillors that all city centres were responding to the challenges of competing for investment. He said Aberdeen needed a city centre for a "global city". Mr Glare said 85% of respondents wanted more space for people in Aberdeen city centre. He said that Union Street could become "elegant" and attract new business. And Mr Glare stressed the "spectacle" of the working Aberdeen harbour should be opened up, describing it as "relatively unique" compared to some other cities, and a "very attractive feature". Councillor Alan Donnelly expressed fears that pedestrianisation could be "challenging" due to the significant amount of displaced traffic. Councillor Marie Boulton said it was a "momentous day for Aberdeen", and that it had been made clear to BDP that the council did not want another plan to "sit on the shelf". Councillor Ross Thomson said he took heart from the "political unity", and that it was time to repair the city's "broken heart". Councillors had agreed not to comment on the plans before the meeting. The plan pulls together key housing, building, transportation and regeneration proposals to transform parts of the city. The report says the focus is on areas that are less well used or failing to deliver the scale of activity expected in a thriving and successful city centre. Proposals include an expansion of the Union Terrace Gardens and a new urban quarter at the head of the "valley". The vision for Queen's Square includes cafes, shops, apartments and pedestrian friendly streets. The city redevelopment is designed to cement the west of Union street as "an elegant city quarter", with focus around the refurbished Music Hall and new City Rooms. A redesigned "gateway" between Union Street and the station aims to "radically improve first impressions of Aberdeen". The idea for Castlegate is to position it as Aberdeen city centre's main civic square, forming a crossroads between Union Street, the harbourside and the beach. Plans for North Dee aim to cement an identity as the city's business quarter, with a Global Energy Hub at its centre. Visions for the waterfront include a link to the city across a new pedestrian bridge to create a new residential community "like no other" in Aberdeen.
Aberdeen councillors have agreed a masterplan for the city centre.

The Tories swept aside Labour, which had held the Cumbria seat for 80 years, to record the first by-election gain by a sitting government in 35 years. Mrs May said the success showed her party's broad appeal across England. Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has insisted he will stay on after it won a separate by-election in Stoke Central. But one Labour MP has urged him to consider his position following the Copeland loss. On a visit to the constituency, Mrs May said newly elected MP Trudy Harrison had upset the odds in a seat held by Labour since the 1930s. Speaking in Millom, Mrs May told supporters: "What we've seen from this victory is this truly is a government that's working for everyone and every part of the country - and that's the message that we bring here to Copeland and we'll take across the country." She praised Mrs Harrison as "such a fantastic candidate", one who does not just talk about things, but who "actually rolls up her sleeves and gets things done". Labour had held both Stoke and Copeland since their creation but was forced to defend them when two former frontbenchers, Tristram Hunt and Jamie Reed, resigned as MPs. Copeland, created in 1983, and its predecessor constituency Whitehaven have returned Labour MPs since 1935. Mrs Harrison got 44.3% of the vote, increasing the Conservatives' vote share by more than 8%. She overturned a Labour majority of more than 2,564 to take the seat by 2,147 votes - a swing of more than 6%. Professor John Curtice, of Strathclyde University, said the Copeland result was the best by-election performance by a governing party in terms of the increase in its share of the vote since January 1966. In her victory speech, Mrs Harrison said: "It's been very clear talking to people throughout this campaign that [Labour leader] Jeremy Corbyn doesn't represent them. By Norman Smith, assistant political editor Theresa May finds her grip on British politics hugely strengthened. For a governing party after seven years of austerity to be sweeping aside Labour in a heartland seat and to see their share of the vote increase in another is an extraordinary achievement. It will be taken by her supporters as a vindication of her hard-edged drive towards Brexit and her break with the more metropolitan politics of David Cameron. As for Labour, relief that it has at least repulsed the perceived threat of UKIP but its slow painful anguish under Jeremy Corbyn seems set to continue. In normal times, both by-elections should have raised barely a flicker of concern and while the slide in support may not ignite a further leadership challenge, the convictions of Mr Corbyn's critics that he is leading the party into the wilderness will only have been strengthened. "They want a party which is on the side of ordinary working people, which will respect the way we voted in the referendum and which will build a country which represents everyone. That's why they voted for me tonight." Mr Corbyn said Labour's "message was not enough to win through in Copeland" but hailed victory in Stoke as a "decisive rejection of UKIP's politics of division and dishonesty". He added: "Labour will go further to reconnect with voters and break with the failed political consensus." But Labour MP John Woodcock, a critic of the leader, said as things stood the party was on course for a "historic and catastrophic defeat" at the next general election. In Stoke-on-Trent, UKIP had hoped to capitalise on voters' leanings towards Brexit - the area voted strongly to leave the EU in June. But in his victory speech, the new Labour MP Gareth Snell said voters had "chosen the politics of hope over the politics of fear". "This city will not allow ourselves to be defined by last year's referendum and we will not allow ourselves to be divided by the result," he said. Labour's share of the vote was 37% - slightly down on the 39.3% it got in 2015. UKIP got 24.7% of the vote and the Conservatives, who came a close third, 24.4% - both slightly higher than their 2015 vote shares. Speaking to journalists after the result, UKIP leader Mr Nuttall said his party's "time would come". "There's a lot more to come from us," he said. We are not going anywhere, I'm not going anywhere." The by-election results mean the government's majority is now 12 - the same as it was immediately after the general election, as the Conservative's new Copeland seat makes up for the one they lost to the Lib Dems in the Richmond Park by-election. With Sinn Fein's four MPs not taking their seats, Mrs May's working majority is 16.
Theresa May has said the Conservatives' "astounding" victory in the Copeland by-election shows her government "is working for everyone".

It didn't take long for him to dive into his celebrations, popping into an ice bath with the Wimbledon trophy. Andy's mum Judy was also close by to join in with the triumph. Not all Murray's family were able to witness his big day first hand - his grandfather Roy missed the Wimbledon final to look after his dog. The morning after, twice Wimbledon champ Murray revealed on a Facebook Live that there had been some good celebrations and he now can't wait to go to Rio for the Olympics. Meanwhile, all the jubilation brought to mind some of Andy Murray's other high times on social media. The film's co-directors, Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, said they "couldn't be more excited to work with an artist with as much depth and range". Donald Glover, who won a Golden Globe on Sunday for his US TV show Atlanta, will play the young Lando Calrissian opposite Alden Ehrenreich's Han. Emilia Clarke will also appear in the film, scheduled for release in 2018. The British actress is best known for her role as Daenerys Targaryen in Game of Thrones and also appeared in 2015's Terminator: Genysys. Harrelson, best known for playing barman Woody in Cheers, was more recently seen as Haymitch Abernathy in the four Hunger Games films. Lord and Miller, who also directed The Lego Movie, said Harrelson's "ability to find both humour and pathos, often in the same role, [was] truly unique". The film-makers did not give any details about his role in the film - although they did reveal on the official Star Wars site that "he is also very good at ping pong".

The footballer, 28, has been told he faces jail after being found guilty of sexual activity with a girl aged 15. He had been playing for Sunderland until the start of his trial but was sacked after changing his pleas and admitting two charges on the first day. "The club only became aware of the change of plea on the first day of the trial," it said in a statement. "Had the club known that Mr Johnson intended to plead guilty to any of these charges, then his employment would have been terminated immediately." Johnson had denied all four charges he faced up until the start of his trial. After admitting to two offences, he was found guilty on one count and cleared of the fourth. However, the trial at Bradford Crown Court heard evidence that the club's chief executive, Margaret Byrne, met with Johnson and his barrister in May 2015 where he accepted he had kissed the girl and exchanged messages with her. Johnson continued to play for the side despite those admissions, the court heard. The player had been initially suspended by the club following his arrest in March 2015 but that was lifted two weeks later. Following the end of the trial on Wednesday, Sunderland issued a statement which said Byrne was only "present during part of that meeting" in May 2015. The Premier League club also denied they "knew all along that Mr Johnson was intending to change his plea just before trial to enable him to continue to play football for the club and that the club may also have been involved in tactical discussions about the plea". The statement added: "This is utterly without foundation and is refuted in the strongest possible terms." But the club "still has questions to answer", according to Claire Phillipson from support group Wearside Women In Need, who said Sunderland's statement was "disingenuous". She told BBC Radio 5 live: "They knew at the very least he had kissed this child and had contact with her, that was the evidence he gave. He may have been lying but they need to clarify that. "If Sunderland categorically say 'he told us he did not have contact with this child' then fine - but they haven't said that."
Sunderland say they would have sacked Adam Johnson immediately had they known he was to admit to child sex offences.

Eleven blocks of Cheddar, each weighing about 20kg, were taken from the Yeovil Show at the weekend. A £500 reward has been offered by one cheesemaker for the safe return of his two winning cheeses. Show organisers said the most valuable cheese stolen was mysteriously returned to the site on Tuesday. Event director Sam Mackenzie-Green said her team was "shocked" to discover two separate thefts during Saturday night and Sunday afternoon. She said "nothing like this has ever happened before" but added they had a "strong lead" as to who the culprit may be. "It's such a mean thing to do," she added. "It's a great disappointment and next year we will absolutely improve security by moving the cheeses to a secure unit overnight." Richard Clothier from Somerset-based Wyke Farms saw his champion and reserve champion blocks, or truckles, stolen overnight on Saturday. He said it "beggars belief" the two blocks, which each weighed the same as a bag of cement, could have been stolen. He has offered a £500 reward for their safe return. "One of my ancestors had his cheese stolen in 1879, but it has not happened to me and I've certainly never heard of thefts like this from a show," he said. "It's such a shame for the team to lose the cheese and the certificate to reward their work." Avon and Somerset police confirmed they were investigating the theft and inquiries were "ongoing". The Yeovil Show began in the 19th century. It closed in the 1960s but was revived last year. The show attracted 23,000 visitors over Saturday and Sunday with the prize Cheddar marquee one of the key attractions.

Southend Hospital in Essex said the fire service had been called after the leak on the third floor of its Cardigan Wing just before midday. The hospital has been closed to patients and visitors as it "is currently not safe", the hospital said. Patients have been moved to other areas of the site while the leak is assessed by fire crews, the statement continued. More updates on this story and others in Essex Essex Fire and Rescue Service said two crews and a hazardous material team had been sent to the hospital. Work is ongoing to stop the leak and crews are monitoring carbon dioxide levels on all floors, the service said. Ambulances are being diverted to other hospitals in the region while the leak is dealt with. Constable Daniel Woodall, 35, and another officer were shot while serving an arrest warrant at a home in west Edmonton on Monday night. Woodall, an eight-year veteran of the police force who had been recruited from the Greater Manchester Police, died at the scene. Police said on Twitter that they are "no longer looking for a suspect". Woodall worked for the Edmonton Police force's hate crimes unit, and the arrest warrant he was serving was for criminal harassment. Another officer, Sgt Jason Harley, 38, was shot at the same time, but was protected by his bulletproof vest. He has since been released from hospital. Shortly after the shooting, a fire erupted at the home where the officers were serving the warrant. Prime Minister Stephen Harper said in a statement, "Constable Woodall's service to Edmonton and to Canada will be remembered and honoured. We grieve his loss today with Alberta and the rest of the country." The CBC reports that the last member of the Edmonton Police force to be killed while at work was in 1990. Edmonton Police Chief Rod Knecht is expected to offer more details at a news conference on Tuesday.

The 39-year-old Warwickshire all-rounder intends to finish his career in September - at the end of his 20th summer in first-class cricket. Maddy was with Leicestershire, his native county, for 13 years, during which time he played three Tests and eight one-day internationals. He signed for the Bears in 2007, taking over as skipper within a month of his debut. After relinquishing the captaincy at the end of the 2008 campaign, during which time he was recalled by England to play in the World Twenty20, he has carried on playing under Ian Westwood and Jim Troughton. But he has so far been limited only to YB40 games this season, having made just one County Championship appearance. "I realise that it's the right time for me to bow out and give more opportunities for many of Warwickshire's promising youngsters to come through and help build on the success of recent seasons," said Maddy. "I've enjoyed a fantastic career, which I never thought would be possible when I signed my first professional contract with Leicestershire in 1991." After making his professional debut in a Sunday League match for Leicestershire against Derbyshire in 1994, Maddy has since gone on to play 282 first-class games, as well as 361 List A and 87 Twenty20 appearances, compiling a combined 39 centuries in all formats.
Former England player Darren Maddy is to retire at the end of this season.

The wreckage of the helicopter that disappeared this week while delivering aid near the Chinese border in Nepal was found on Friday morning. Six US marines and two Nepali soldiers were on board. Three bodies have so far been recovered. Tuesday's 7.3-magnitude quake killed at least 110 people. It came as Nepal was reeling from the devastating 7.8-magnitude earthquake of 25 April which killed more than 8,000 people and injured many more. The editor of the Nepal Times, Kunda Dixit, said the helicopter wreckage was found 56km (35 miles) from Kathmandu. Lieutenant General John Wissler, head of the US task force in Nepal, said it was "unlikely" any survivors would be found at the site, which he said was in dense forest near the village of Charikot at an elevation of 3,352m (11,000 feet). The helicopter went missing in the hours after the second quake. Although the cause of the crash is not yet known, a nearby Indian helicopter heard radio chatter about a possible fuel problem, said Pentagon spokesman Steve Warren. The marines had been working in the vicinity of Charikot, a village that was hit hard by the first quake, a spokesman for the US Pacific Command said. The helicopter had been flying from Kathmandu airport as part of the US Operation Sahayogi Haat, which means "helping hand" in Nepali. More than a dozen US military aircraft have been deployed to help carry out deliveries to areas cut off by the earthquakes. Two Nepalese army helicopters were deployed in the search for the missing UH-1Y Huey helicopter, as well as 400 troops on the ground.
The US military says no-one is believed to have survived the crash of one of its helicopters in Nepal.

Ellie Jackson was in Australia when her brother went missing during a solo trip from Portsoy in Aberdeenshire. But when his body was found after a four-day search, she said she did not receive the news from the police. Instead she was told of the discovery by a "lovely, kind lady" who watched his body being pulled from the water. Ms Jackson told BBC Radio Scotland the woman saw the operation unfold from a cliff top at Lybster in Caithness. Speaking on The Stephen Jardine Programme, she said: "She was in touch with me on social media and she said, 'I'm standing on the cliff top, I can see the helicopter, they're hovering over and here comes Wick lifeboat and yes, I'm sorry to say they're pulling him out of the water and they're heading back straight up to Wick. "I could hear it as she was describing it to me so I felt that connection for him with the people who were there at the last part of his journey. "My first instinct was relief, I was so glad they found him. I couldn't imagine the pain of not knowing where he was and never finding him." Ms Jackson said her younger brother loved nature and the outdoors and he had learned to kayak while he was a scout. It was not a hobby he had actively pursued over the years but he bought himself a kayak as a "Christmas present to himself". She said it was his third or fourth trip out in the vessel when he loaded it onto his campervan and drove from his home in Fettercairn to Portsoy in February. When he did not return home as planned, his flatmate posted a note on Facebook asking people to look out for him. Ms Jackson said she spotted the post after dropping off her son at his first day at pre-school. She knew "straight away" that it was out of character. "Instantly we knew this was something much, much more serious," she said. While family members in the UK travelled to Aberdeenshire, Ms Jackson quickly took on a co-ordinating role from her base in Australia. "While my family were organising travel arrangements, I could be looking at things on the internet - maps, weather forecasts those kinds of things," she said. "I could instantly get all this information and relay it straight back to my family over Skype and Dom's friends who also volunteered to come up to search. "I felt like even though I was so far away, I actually had a really key role in the whole search and while everyone was going through their own ordeal on the cliff top, I was going through my own version of that. "I was literally stuck to that computer for 22 hours a day for at least 11 days." Ms Jackson also paid tribute to local communities around Portsoy who quickly offered to help the family. "That, from the other side of the world, was overwhelming," she said. She said the family get comfort from the fact that he died doing something he loved. "Far better that than some awful long-suffering illness," she added. "It was his own choice, it was his own passion, he was surrounded by nature, which he loved and he was at peace, I think, when he went." Since Mr Jackson's death, the family have set up the PlanB charity in a bid to promote the use of personal locator beacons (PLBs) to prevent similar deaths in the future. Ms Jackson said the small, wearable devices can be activated in an emergency situation and can help rescuers quickly and accurately locate someone in difficulty. "I'd like to share the awareness of these beacons through the charity to try and make sense of the tragedy of my brother and have some good come out of this," she said.
The sister of kayaker Dominic Jackson learned that his body had been found from a woman she met through social media.

Media playback is not supported on this device The hosts made a flying start, with Dan Baker and Olly Cracknell scoring excellent team tries to give them a commanding 14-0 half-time lead. Prop Nicky Smith powered over for a third try, before Sean O'Brien earned Connacht a late consolation score. Even with fly-half Sam Davies in the sin-bin, Ospreys sealed the bonus point with Ashley Beck's last-minute try. That gave Steve Tandy's men a Pro12 double over Connacht for the season, and added a final gloss to their eighth successive victory in all competitions. Starting the game in third place and two points behind leaders Munster, Ospreys blew Connacht away with a high-octane first quarter. The home side attacked with purpose and pace, fly-half Davies setting the tempo and the forwards carrying powerfully. It was that combination which paved the way for the opening score, as Davies' perfectly-timed flat pass allowed flanker Cracknell to gallop deep into Connacht's half. Ospreys maintained that momentum with a slick sequence of phases, and number eight Baker was on hand to plunge over from close range. They had a second try with just 15 minutes gone, with Cracknell picking another fine angle and accelerating clear to touch down. After encountering a little more Connacht resistance in the second half, Ospreys scored their third try as Smith wrestled his way over. They were already 24-0 up when Davies was shown a yellow card for a high tackle on John Cooney, rendering O'Brien's score from a turnover a mere consolation for the visitors. Ospreys' confounded their numerical disadvantage to score their bonus point-securing fourth try with the final play of the game, as Beck squeezed over in the corner. Ospreys: Dan Evans; Dafydd Howells, Ashley Beck, Josh Matavesi, Hanno Dirksen; Sam Davies, Tom Habberfield; Nicky Smith, Sam Parry, Ma'afu Fia, Lloyd Ashley, Alun Wyn Jones (capt), Olly Cracknell, Justin Tipuric, Dan Baker. Replacements: Scott Baldwin, Paul James, Rhodri Jones, Adam Beard, Sam Underhill, Brendon Leonard, Dan Biggar, Kieron Fonotia. Connacht: Tiernan O'Halloran; Niyi Adeolokun, Rory Parata, Peter Robb, Matt Healy; Jack Carty, John Cooney; Denis Buckley, Tom McCartney, Finlay Bealham, Quinn Roux, James Cannon, Sean O'Brien, Jake Heenan, Naulia Dawai Replacements: Dave Heffernan, JP Cooney, John Andress, Lewis Stevenson, Eoin McKeon, Caolin Blade, Danie Poolman, Ciaran Gaffney Referee: John Lacey (Ireland) Assistant referees: Gary Conway (Ireland), Ben Whitehouse (Wales) TMO: Neil Paterson (Scotland)
Ospreys climbed to the top of the Pro12 with a convincing bonus-point win over reigning champions Connacht.

The trio are among 26 individuals whose files were published by hackers Fancy Bears on Monday. Spanish tennis player Rafael Nadal also features in the latest release. The records mostly detail therapeutic use exemptions (TUEs), which allow banned substances to be taken for athletes' verified medical needs. There is no suggestion athletes named are involved in any wrongdoing. The other Team GB members included in this fourth batch of hacked data are hockey players Alex Danson, Crista Cullen and Samantha Quek, rower Peter Reed, and track cyclist Callum Skinner. The latest release suggests Farah, who completed a second successive Olympic 5,000 and 10,000m double in Rio, had a TUE in October 2008 for the use of triamcinolone - a long-acting synthetic corticosteroid used for the treatment of a number of conditions including eczema, arthritis and allergies. The 33-year-old also received a TUE in 2014 after he collapsed following training at high altitude and was put on a drip. Farah has reportedly said he had only ever had one TUE given to him, although it has been suggested he was answering a specific question about his time with coach Alberto Salazar. A spokesperson for Farah said the athlete had "nothing to hide". They added: "He doesn't have a problem with this information being released - as evidenced by the fact that he voluntarily shared his blood data with the Sunday Times last year. "Mo's medical care is overseen at all times by British Athletics and over the course of his long career he has only ever had two TUEs." The files were stolen from a World Anti-Doping Agency (Wada) database. Fancy Bears say TUEs are "licenses for doping" and Wada is "corrupt and deceitful". Wada director general Olivier Niggli has strongly criticised the leak. Last week, Rio 2016 gold medallists Sir Bradley Wiggins, Laura Trott and Nicola Adams, and three-time Tour de France winner Chris Froome, were among those named as having utilised TUEs. Fifty-three British athletes from the Rio Olympics may be at risk of having their medical details made public, according to the head of UK Anti-Doping (Ukad). The vast majority of the TUEs released on Monday are for asthma medication and many of these drugs no longer require special permission as they were reclassified by Wada in 2010. Rower Glover was allowed to use salbutamol to treat her asthma from 9 November 2009 to 30 November 2013, while golfer Rose had authorisation for daily doses of the anti-inflammatory drug prednisolone he took to treat a back injury that caused him to miss several weeks of action in May and June. Nadal, a 14-time tennis Grand Slam winner who won Olympic men's doubles gold with Marc Lopez in Rio, had exemptions in 2009 and 2012 for the use of betamethasone - a steroid medication used to treat a number of conditions, including rheumatic disorders. A TUE allows an athlete, for medical reasons, to take a prescribed substance or have treatment that is otherwise prohibited. British athletes must contact their national governing body or follow Ukad guidance before applying for a TUE. There are strict criteria for one to be granted: Ukad says it has "a number of robust controls in place to make it as difficult as possible" for athletes to misuse the system.
Olympic gold medallists Mo Farah, Helen Glover and Justin Rose are among the latest British athletes to have medical files made public by hackers.

Rotherham MP Sarah Champion was speaking after 17 men were convicted of forcing girls in Newcastle to have sex. Mostly British-born, they are from Iraqi, Bangladeshi, Pakistani, Indian, Iranian and Turkish communities. Ms Champion said asking if there were "cultural issues" was simply "child protection". Northumbria Police said society "can't be afraid to have this discussion". Speaking on BBC Radio 4's Today programme, Ms Champion, Labour's shadow women and equalities minister, said gang-related child sexual exploitation involves "predominately Pakistani men" were involved in such cases "time and time and time again". "The government aren't researching what is going on. Are these cultural issues? Is there some sort of message going out within the community?" she said. Ms Champion said the "far right" would attack her comments for "not doing enough" and the "floppy left" would call her racist. "This isn't racist, this is child protection," said the MP for Rotherham, where at least 1,400 children were found to have been exploited between 1997 and 2013. The issue was not being dealt with because "people are more afraid to be called a racist than they are afraid to be wrong about calling out child abuse", Ms Champion said. Mohammed Shafiq from the Ramadhan Foundation said the debate needed putting in context. "Amongst these criminals there is a mindset that they think that white girls are worthless," he said. "They don't have any regard for their standing within society and therefore they think they can be used and abused in that way. "But the vast majority of child sex abuse carried out in this country is carried out by white men - through the home, through family networks and through the internet." Northumbria Police Chief Constable Steve Ashman said the force did not ask about religious background on arrest. As those arrested under Operation Sanctuary were from a number cultural backgrounds, "who do I point that finger towards to say you have an issue here, culturally?" he said. Some communities' attitude to "women, principally white women" needed addressing, he said. "But the discussion has to take place beyond policing." Former director of public prosecutions Lord Macdonald said there had been a reluctance in the past to investigate gangs from some Asian communities targeting vulnerable white girls. "Some recognition that this is a problem" was needed, he said. All communities needed to address it, "not pretending it's something else, not shying away from it, recognising it for what it is, which is profoundly racist crime", he said.
A fear of being called racist is preventing authorities investigating the reasons behind child abuse cases, an MP has claimed.

Francois Hollande had left the creature with a family in Timbuktu for safekeeping, after it was presented to him by local residents in February. But it was promptly slaughtered and used in a tagine. France sent troops to Mali in January to regain the north from a loose coalition of militant Islamist groups. During the young camel's handover ceremony, Mr Hollande had joked about using "it as much as I can as a means of transport" around the Parisian traffic jams. French officials had originally planned to transport the animal to a zoo in France, but because of the complex logistics it was decided instead to entrust the beast to a local family. The French defence minister informed the president of the camel's death during a recent cabinet meeting, Valeurs Actuelles magazine reported. "As soon as we heard of this, we quickly replaced it with a bigger and better-looking camel," Reuters quoted an unnamed Malian official as saying. "The new camel will be sent to Paris. We are ashamed of what happened to the camel. It was a present that did not deserve this fate." France currently has 4,000 troops in Mali, backed by thousands of Malian, Chadian and other African forces. France's defence ministry said this week it had started the withdrawal of its forces from Mali. A new body called the UK Trade Remedies Organisation will be set up to tackle allegations of unfair competition and investigate complaints. The online advert for a digital design lead said the organisation needs to be up and running by October 2018 - ahead of the UK's exit in March 2019. The UK can then enforce its own trade rules - a job currently done by the EU. "This is a challenging deadline and the Trade Remedies Implementation Team is being formed to ensure this is effectively delivered on time," read the advert. The organisation will be an "arm's length body" of the Department for International Trade. The group's implementation team - which the new recruit will join - will be responsible for hiring 130 staff and designing the organisation, including its IT, HR and finance structures. However, prospective candidates have been warned they will be working in a "changing and uncertain environment", with changes to policy possible as "thinking develops", as legislation moves through parliament, and because of the on-going negotiation with the EU. "This is a brand new function in the UK and delivering a fully functional and fit-for-purpose organisation by October 2018 is a huge challenge," read the advert. The job offers a salary of between £48,483 and £56,370.

The global addressing system needs to be updated because the older scheme, IPv4, is running out of space. The small-scale trial involves BT staff being switched to a network that runs only on IPv6 technology. News about the test leaked because the technical changes made to BT's network for the trial accidentally included some customers' connections. A small number of customers who use BT's Infinity fibre optic service spotted that they had been given an IPv6 address rather than one for IPv4, reported ISP Review. In a statement, BT explained that the address change came about when it tinkered with its network to test IPv6 equipment. "For some tests, we have to fully enable very small parts of the network for IPv6 for a limited period of time," it said. "During this window of time, a very small number of customers who are not BT employees may get an IPv6 as well IPv4 address." It added: "They are not included in the trial and they should not notice any issues at all with their internet experience." BT would not be drawn on when IPv6 would be used for all customers. It said the technical change would be made "in good time". The BT test comes soon after Sky started to update the internal software on some customer routers to support IPv6. The small-scale test is being conducted before Sky uses the protocol across its entire domestic broadband network. The switch to IPv6 is being made because almost all the 4.3 billion addresses available via IPv4 are used up. Everything connected to the net needs an IP address to ensure data reaches the right place. Progress towards switching to IPv6 has been slow because it would cost so much to swap equipment in homes and businesses that can only handle IPv4. Statistics gathered by Google suggest about just over 6% of all net traffic travels using IPv6. Adrian Kennard, boss of ISP Andrews & Arnold which has offered v6 services for years, said most ISPs currently mix the two addressing schemes. "Each device on the network can use either protocol to connect to the internet," he said. "Devices will typically try to use IPv6 where possible, using IPv4 only if there is no choice." ISPs use technology inside their networks to handle translation between the two protocols, he said. "This has a number of detrimental effects on the way things work," he added. "It adds unnecessary complexity and restrictions to the way things work and can mean some things break. "It is a shame that ISPs have left it so long to deploy IPv6," said Mr Kennard. "Had this been done decades ago then IPv4 would have become unnecessary before addresses had run out and started to cause problems."
BT has started trials of the next version of the net's addressing scheme known as IP version 6.

Cae Post will stop working in Welshpool and the north of the area after the local authority decided to take on the work itself. While Powys Council took on workers, 17 staff have been made redundant. Cae Post is a social enterprise which employs disabled and disadvantaged workers. Chairman of trustees John Harrington said the loss of the contract would cause "difficulties", but the charity would look for other opportunities. The 30-year-old operation plans to distribute 3D printer filament and offer a trade waste collection service. Powys Council has distributed new boxes and plans to run collections in line with collection work around the county.
A charity which has made kerbside recycling collections from 5,000 Powys properties for 10 years will cease the operation on Saturday.

The event, which runs from 10 to 16 July, features 48 men's and 16 women's teams from 52 countries. Three football pitches and seating for 3,500 spectators is being built in George Square, ready for the 14th year of the cup. Scotland last hosted the tournament in 2005, in Edinburgh. The first took place in Graz, Austria, in 2003. The aim of the competition is to inspire homeless people to change their lives. It was set up by the International Network of Street Papers and Mel Young, founder of the Big Issue in Scotland. Scotland's men take on Hong Kong with the women's team playing against Norway in their opening fixtures of the competition. The matches follow the opening ceremony which starts at 12:30 on Sunday. The Scotland teams are managed, selected and coached by social enterprise Street Soccer Scotland. They include players from across Scotland picked after a series of selection days throughout the year. Ally Dawson, manager of Team Scotland, said: "The Homeless World Cup is a very special event for everyone involved and being host nation brings an added honour. "The men's and women's squads have been training very hard over recent weeks in preparation for the start of the tournament. Every year the Scottish teams are determined to do their country proud but this year has an added edge as they look forward to playing in front of what will be a very noisy home support." Scotland's men's team won the tournament for the first time in Denmark in 2007 and again in Paris in 2011. The women's team finished 5th in Paris in 2011 and 7th last year in Amsterdam. About 100,000 spectators are expected to come to watch matches during the week-long tournament. Entry is free and no tickets are required.
Glasgow's George Square is being transformed into a tournament arena as it prepares for the Homeless World Cup.

Such is the status of Tehran. No sooner was a landmark nuclear deal announced in Vienna on 14 July than senior officials started checking and changing their diaries to come here. The first to reach the Iranian capital was Germany's Vice-Chancellor and Economy Minister Sigmar Gabriel, who flew in with a 100-member delegation, including many captains of German industry and finance. Now it's the turn of the EU's foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini, who's just arrived for her first official visit. Europe's top diplomat played a key role in the final stages of the intensive talks which stretched over nearly two years, sometimes hovering on collapse. "It's good to be here," Ms Mogherini remarked as she slipped into a waiting black limousine bearing Europe's flag in a mid-length coat and an obligatory head scarf in shades of coral and pink. In sparkling sunshine, the convoy of sleek Mercedes, flanked by motorcycle outriders, ferried Europe's top diplomat and her closest aides down wide, sweeping boulevards and through crowded streets towards the elegant mansion housing the foreign ministry for her first meeting of the day. Her maiden drive through the capital takes her on a tour of the symbols that define Iran: the face of Iran's revolutionary leader Ayatollah Khomeini painted on soaring walls; the iconic white monument built during the Shah's reign, now renamed "Azadi" or freedom; and the national flags that seem to flutter everywhere. Tehran's streets are still festooned with the brightly-coloured bunting from recent celebrations from the Islamic Eid al-Fitr festival. But this month, it was the news from Vienna of a deal that caused Iranians to take to the streets in an eruption of joy. Now they wait for results. And Ms Mogherini wants to play a leading role in the implementation of the deal, which will also be demanding and difficult, to ensure the agreement holds: that Iran carries out significant curbs to its nuclear programme to cut off all pathways to any possible development of a nuclear bomb - and that world powers reciprocate with the lifting of sanctions. And that's not the only reason why Iran will now be under the world's microscope. Even Ms Mogherini's itinerary underlines another concern. Her diplomacy this week began in Riyadh with her first official meeting with Saudi Arabia's Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir, who on Monday condemned what he called recent "aggressive statements" by Iran. That means Ms Mogherini arrives in Tehran fully briefed on the deep-rooted concerns in many Arab capitals over a nuclear deal they fear that will embolden Iran in its regional political ambitions. Before she set out on her trip, Ms Mogherini told the BBC she hoped the deal could be "a great opportunity to open the country". When I travelled to Tehran a year ago with her predecessor Catherine Ashton, no-one could say for sure if a deal would be done, but Tehran felt like a city willing it to happen. Everywhere we went - from popular bazaars to business offices - Iranians approached us to say how much they hoped this long period of punishing sanctions would soon come to an end. Many expressed hope Iran would re-engage with the West, and take its rightful place at the world's top tables. But there was also sensitivity among more conservative Iranians that the nuclear deal was a Trojan horse to allow the West to start meddling in Iran's internal affairs, including human rights and issues of personal and political freedoms. And yet there were, and are, the slow but certain signs of change. A year ago, European tourists were starting to trickle back in greater numbers. At the sprawling Grand Bazaar with its exquisite traditional mosaics, we ran into a group of delighted German tourists who were gushing in their praise of Iranian hospitality. Now even countries like Britain, whose embassy has been closed since attacks on the property in 2011, recently relaxed its travel advice for most areas of Iran, saying there had been "decreasing hostility under President [Hassan] Rouhani's government". A year ago, in bustling hotel lobbies, we met people from Asian and Arab and African countries who spoke of keen interest in a nation with a big population, and big potential. Iran, under sanctions, was already a destination in the diary of many officials and investors. Now a fast-flowing stream of visitors is swelling with the arrival of more business executives from the West, as well as Russia, China and many other nations hoping to exploit business opportunities and make this new opening to Iran even wider. When the EU in Brussels unanimously approved the nuclear deal earlier this month, Ms Mogherini again hailed this diplomatic triumph in resolving, peacefully, a major security problem of our time - without a shot being fired, without it being a zero-sum game. So great was this sense of achievement that the EU's top diplomat moved to build on this momentum and establish a similar diplomatic forum to deal with an even more protracted problem: the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. But the challenges for the world's top diplomats on a still controversial deal are only beginning. We'll get an inkling of what lies ahead through official remarks on Tuesday, what we hear on the streets, and through the coverage in Iran's often outspoken media. Ms Mogherini will hear even more behind closed doors with she meets Iran's top leaders on her one-day trip. And hours after Iranian officials bid her farewell, they'll welcome France's Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius to Tehran. In September, Austria's president will become the first head of state to visit after a deal clinched in his own fine capital. There's a real sense here that a page is being turned. But there's still no real certainty about how this new chapter will be written, even if most Iranians dare to hope there's a happier ending in store.
When a city suddenly moves to the top tier of foreign ministers' travel itineraries, you know it has notched up new political significance.

From listening to music and running, to colouring a picture and spending time with your family, you have sent us your photos and messages of your personal stories and how you manage day-to-day. To bring more awareness of mental health issues, Josh recorded a video on YouTube about suffering from depression. "I wouldn't wish depression on my worst enemy," he says. "You shouldn't be ashamed to say you have depression - you are not alone." "Joining a running club encourages social interaction and builds a support network," says Carolyn. But she gives a tongue-in-cheek warning. "Running can be addictive," says the 36-year-old. "Competitiveness can take hold and once you enter races, you are at risk of developing an awesome sense of fun, and a sense of achievement, as well as building camaraderie, determination and resilience." Megan says her illness is "debilitating". "There are good and bad periods. It's like there is someone living in your brain constantly telling you how useless you are. "Colouring and baking have helped me to relax and distract my brain from negative thoughts." Jennifer Rowland, Crewe: "Make sure you eat at least two meals a day - meals, not junk food. Look out of the window, got outside, remember the world outside your own head. Talk to your friends. Don't tell just one person everything, tell a few people some things that are on your mind. Smile at a stranger." Laura, London: "At the end of each day, write a list of positive things from the day. Maybe something you've enjoyed, a compliment, something you achieved, or something beautiful you saw. Try to think of three, or more if you can. I write them on my phone - I've downloaded a diary app that reminds me." Gemma Wilson, Tameside: "I keep a box that holds positive memories like a favourite perfume or body spray, a song or album, maybe even a good book/DVD that helps escape from reality for a little while. The slightest break gives you time to try and readjust enough to maybe think a little clearer." Nineteen-year-old George Hodgson describes how his anxiety affected him. "I couldn't leave my bedroom let alone the house, until I became so mentally ill, I had to go and see a specialist. "Eventually after months and months of seeing a psychiatrist and a cognitive behavioural therapist, there was light at the end of the tunnel and I started my recovery. "During this period I had the idea of Maison de Choup, my fashion label born out of my anxiety." Rachel, Sandy, Bedfordshire: "Break things down into small, manageable chunks, with a reward for yourself for each thing you complete, even if that is just getting out of bed." "I struggle with depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder and obsessive compulsive disorder," says Charlotte. "I am by no means cured but these tips all help me to manage my problems and take control of my life so I can be truly happy; which, right now, I am." Singer-songwriter Abigail Blake, aged 21, says: "I have been struggling on and off with severe depression and anxiety for the last several years. "Music has helped me stay positive, calm, and ultimately alive." She wrote Epiphany, a song about her experiences with depression.

Survival reached this view after speaking to its own sources, the group said. Reports emerged in August that illegal gold miners had killed up to 80 people. Venezuelan officials said a team sent to the area had found no bodies and no evidence of an attack. The attack was alleged to have happened in the remote Irotatheri community, close to the border with Brazil. Survival carried reports from Yanomami organisations which described how illegal gold miners had set fire to a communal house, and how witnesses said they had found burnt bodies. There were said to be three survivors. On Monday, Survival International said this account did not appear to be correct. "Having received its own testimony from confidential sources, Survival now believes there was no attack by miners on the Yanomami community of Irotatheri," said a statement from Stephen Corry, Survival International's director. Yanomami in the area, where many illegal gold miners are operating, had heard stories of a killing in July and this was reported, by some, as having happened in Irotatheri, Mr Corry said. "We currently do not known whether or not these stories were sparked by a violent incident, which is the most likely explanation, but tension remains high in the area." The Venezuelan government said teams sent to investigate the reports had found no evidence of an attack. Indigenous rights campaigners said the Venezuelan officials might have failed to find the community in question, which is based in a remote jungle location. Journalists were then taken to the area on Friday and Saturday, where Yanomami villagers said there had been no violence. "No-one's killed anyone," a Yanomami man said through a translator. "Here we are all fine." The Yanomami number an estimated 30,000, with their communities spanning the Venezuela-Brazil border area. They have been resisting encroachment by gold miners for decades, accusing them of destroying the rainforest and introducing diseases. In recent years the soaring price of gold on world markets has driven a surge in unlicensed gold-mining in many parts of the Amazon. Survival called on the Venezuelan authorities to do more to evict miners from Yanomami land. Military officials sent to the Irotatheri village said they had not found signs of mining activity in the area. "That was over a year ago and that was the decision to change," he told ITV's Good Morning Britain. "I look back at all the work I'd done - four days off that year and five the year before and I thought something's got to change." Martin left Saturday Kitchen in March last year. It is believed the man who died was a singer who was performing at the BBC Good Food Middle East Awards in 2015 in the UAE. Martin told Susanna Reid and Piers Morgan that after the shock of the man's death and his subsequent decision to change his work priorities, "for the first time in my life I'm content and happy". When asked about rumours he would join the new Great British Bake Off when it moves to Channel 4, Martin said: "I tried to put a bet on myself twice but they're not taking odds so I don't think that's going to happen." A number of guest hosts have presented Saturday Kitchen since Martin departed, including chefs John Torrode, Angela Hartnett and Lorraine Pascale. When Martin fronted the show, he asked celebrity guests for their "food heaven" and "food hell" - to have one of the dishes, voted for by viewers, cooked at the end of the programme. It also saw chefs compete against each other in the omelette challenge - creating a three-egg omelette in the fastest time.

The latest sequel to the influential game will go on general release after months of testing by those who backed it on Kickstarter. After launch, the game will face stiff competition from other space-based games currently in development. Many of those offer players very similar experiences to the fighting, trading and exploring in deep space seen in Elite. Plans to make the fourth instalment in the Elite series of games emerged in November 2012 when the project appeared on Kickstarter seeking to raise £1.25m to develop the game. Elite: Dangerous is being made by Cambridgeshire-based Frontier Developments, the game studio headed by David Braben who co-developed the original Elite game. He said he used Kickstarter because it would have been hard to get a publisher to back the idea. The December release date is later than originally planned and the game will initially only be playable on PCs. A Mac version is due to follow three months after the original release. Frontier is planning an event on 22 November at which some players will get a look at what the finished game will look like. On porting the game to consoles, Mr Braben told the BBC's Waseem Mirza: "It is important we make a great game first, but then we will look at other platforms." After the end of its Kickstarter campaign, Frontier continued to raise funds via its website and from gamers who have paid to take part in the testing phases of the game. This week Frontier announced that this fund-raising activity had helped it raise £7.5m and more than 140,000 people had taken part in its alpha and beta testing programme. "Elite has a fabulous heritage," said James Binns, managing director at gaming news site PCGamesN. "The loyalty that people have to it comes from playing it in the 80s." However, he said, it faced strong competition from another title, Star Citizen, that was also calling on a strong community to back it. Currently, Star Citizen has raised more than $60m (£38m) from its backers and had a "super engaged" community who were fans of its creator Chris Roberts' earlier Wing Commander games. Star Citizen was trying to be a bit different, said Mr Binns, as it was planning to let spaceship pilots get out of their craft and fight gun battles in space stations, on planets and inside ships themselves. Star Citizen is scheduled to be released in 2016 though some parts of it are available to backers already. Also a rival, said Mr Binns, a game called No Man's Sky made by Guildford-based Hello Games. "If you are looking for a game that was inspired by the original Elite then No Man's Sky is that game," said Mr Binns. It too will let players use a spaceship to explore a Universe that has been created using a technique called "procedural generation". Trailers for the game generated huge interest at the E3 convention and it is expected to be released in 2015. At first it will only be available on Sony's PlayStation 4 but a version for PCs is expected to follow. Each of the games was appealing to a slightly different audience, said Mr Binns, but there was no doubt that these pools of players did overlap. However, he said, Elite, Star Citizen and No Man's Sky could all face competition from a very well-established title. "Right now," he said, "the most exciting space game that has shipped is Eve Online." Mr Braben welcomed the presence of rivals, saying: "Competition is always a good thing for the players, as it gives choice, but also it keeps the competitors on their proverbial toes." Hampshire fire service said about 1,000 litres of milk came off the lorry on the A3024 at Bursledon. The service said it had sent its Hazard Area Response Team to the scene to prevent the milk from getting into nearby watercourses. The road has since reopened between the Windhover Roundabout and the B3033. Drains were blocked to contain the milk on the road and vacuum tankers were used to remove the milk from ditches to stop it getting into the watercourse. Mike O'Neill, from the Environment Agency said: "Milk has a big environmental impact because its so high in nutrients. "Bugs in the water use the oxygen to break those down and then there's no oxygen for the fish. "If the milk had got into the river, it would have been a really significant incident." The driver of the 44-tonne lorry is not believed to be injured.

His mother agreed for relatives of her ex-boyfriend to become her son's guardians when she gave birth aged 17. The man who the boy now looks on as his father is currently serving a lengthy prison sentence for drugs trafficking, the High Court heard. Two of the man's sons have also been jailed for drug dealing. The boy's mother, who is 23 and from Surrey, told the hearing she was worried about the lifestyles of her son's new family and wanted to have him living back with her. She began her legal fight in 2013 and has represented herself at a series of family court hearings because she cannot afford lawyers and is not eligible for legal aid. On Wednesday Mr Justice Jackson ordered a new investigation into the boy's circumstances. He said a family court judge must oversee a new trial and said "hard questions" had to be asked to find out whether the boy was being harmed. Speaking outside the court, the boy's mother said: "He's living with drug dealers. That just can't be right. "I agreed to him living with this family after he was born. I was 16 when I got pregnant and 17 when I gave birth. "I've grown up since then. I can look after him now and I want him back," she said. The Italian side stated that his birth certificate is "absolutely legitimate". Lazio added: "We reserve the right to take action against those responsible for the protection of the good name of the company and the footballer." The midfielder also issued a statement via the club's website denying he told an African website he was 41. He said: "I have read the alleged statements posted on the website senego.net in which it says I confessed my real age which was different to what was stated in my [official] documents. On his face there is sign of his previous life, which was not a happy life. That is it. Period. There is nothing else that makes you think he is 41 "They are false statements that have been attributed to me by people who do not know." Minala joined the Rome club last summer and recently played for them in the Viareggio Cup youth tournament. Italian journalist Max Evangelista, who reports on Lazio's youth team, said any suggestions the player was 41 were "unbelievable". He said Minala had scored five goals and made six assists this season for Lazio's youth team, who are the holders of the national title. "He is a very reactive player. You could never say he is 41," he told BBC World Service." When you are surrounded by players running like devils around you, in my opinion it is very tough to be 41. He runs, he is fast. It is unbelievable news, that is why Lazio felt the need to deny it. "He was in an orphanage for a couple of years in Cameroon, then he had to face the situation here by himself. It is a controversial story because the face of the player is not that of a 17-year-old guy. "On his face there is sign of his previous life, which was not a happy life. That is it. Period. There is nothing else that makes you think he is 41. "He is a kid with the head of a kid. He only wants to play football as he did on the road years ago barefoot. That is the only thing he is focused on and being a talent because he is a talent." Colin Gale, 39, from Worthing, is accused of murdering Mark Manning, 54, of Brighton Road, Lancing, who was last seen in April 2014.

He is due to appear at Lewes Crown Court on Friday. Mr Manning's family reported him missing on 22 April 2014, and police launched a murder investigation two months later, even though extensive searches had failed to find his body. Det Ch Insp Max Ashcroft, from the Surrey and Sussex Major Crime Team, said police were still keen to hear from anyone with information about Mr Manning's disappearance or whereabouts.

Mr Bale failed to get re-elected as Labour leader - and thereby council leader - a week ago with the vote tied. But on Monday he was re-elected despite a challenge by councillor Lynda Thorne. Mr Bale told BBC Wales he was "happy with the result" and "excited about the city's future". Opposition councillors have previously called for him to resign and several people within his own party felt he should have stepped down. The Llanishen councillor survived a vote of no confidence in March after he struggled to pass his budget. Norbert Hofer has about 36% of the votes for the mostly ceremonial role - not enough to avoid a run-off in May. He is likely to face Alexander Van der Bellen, an independent contender backed by the Greens, who is polling 20%. For the first time since World War Two, the candidates from Austria's two main parties did not make it to the run-off. Rudolf Hundstorfer from the Social Democrats and the centre-right People's Party Andreas Khol are each thought to have taken about 11% of the vote. Both parties have governed Austria for decades - either alone or in coalition. This is a big shake-up in Austrian politics, the BBC's Bethany Bell in Vienna reports, as the country has had a president from the centre-left or centre-right since 1945. The clear victory of the far-right candidate reflects widespread discontent with the status quo, as well as concerns about immigration and the economy, our correspondent says. Support for the Social Democrats and the People's Party has been falling in recent years. In the last general elections in 2013, the two parties won just enough votes to govern in a "grand coalition" If no candidate secures a majority of the votes in the first round of the presidential elections, the run-off will be held on 22 May.

Patrick Gillespie, of Craigvar Street, Glasgow, is charged with committing the offence between 2006 and 2016. The accused, who also has an address in Donegal, was remanded in custody. Mr Donaldson, 55, was once a key figure in Sinn Féin's rise in Northern Ireland politics. He was shot dead at an isolated cottage near Glenties. Gurney, 29, took the first set of a high quality match 3-2 in legs with an average of 100 but lost the second to the world number two by the same score. Gurney missed darts for the third set and lost it 3-2 and Anderson wrapped up the match by winning the last two sets. The Londonderry man has lost four times in the second round of the tournament. Gurney, ranked 36 in the world, beat Jamie Lewis 3-1 in the first round to set up the Boxing Day encounter with the Scot.

The 26-year-old joined the Cherries from non-league Woking in June 2010 and has been part of two promotions. He made 21 appearances in the top flight last season and was unfortunate to be ruled out of the Republic of Ireland's Euro 2016 squad with injury. Arter follows team-mates Adam Federici, Adam Smith and Steve Cook in signing new deals at Bournemouth. The 28-year-old woman called Farkhunda was accused of burning the Koran, although witnesses say she did not. Of the defendants who appeared in court in Kabul, 19 were police officers accused of failing in their duty to prevent the attack. The death led to widespread protests against the treatment of women. Farkhunda was beaten to death and her body then burned on 19 March. She had argued with a mullah, or religious teacher, about his practice of selling charms to women at a shrine. In the course of the argument she was accused of burning the Koran and a crowd overheard and attacked her. In confession statements read in court some of the accused admitted they were drawn in by the claims. An official investigator has said there is no evidence she burned the Koran. At the opening of the trial at Afghanistan's Primary Court, the judge called for the Kabul police chief and the head of an interior ministry investigating team to attend court on Sunday. The accused wore dark clothes given to them in prison. Two of them said they had been forced to sign confessions under duress. The proceedings were broadcast live on national television. The BBC's David Loyn in Kabul says that although Afghanistan is a country where women's lives are often fragile, the murder of Farkhunda has led to nationwide condemnation. The Northumbria Police officer has been found guilty of two charges of rape and three indecent assaults involving vulnerable women he met on duty. The 42-year-old, from Glasgow, was also convicted of six counts of misconduct in public office. He was cleared of nine counts of misconduct in public office, three of indecent assault and three of rape. The woman was involved in one of the misconduct in public office charges for which Mitchell was found guilty. She first came into contact with the officer in 2003 when a friend she was with was arrested for shoplifting. The woman was a drug addict and had non-prescribed diazepam which she said Mitchell had given back to her when she was released. They then exchanged numbers. She said he had rubbed her leg and tried to kiss her in an interview room at Newcastle's Pilgrim Street police station and asked if he could take her out before he drove her home. "I was shocked at first. But at the time I didn't really think about anything like that because at the time I was an addict and I was just going along with anything just to get the tablets back," she said. "And he also said he could get them for me off people who he took them off in the street and he would help us out giving us money and stuff." She said she had not had a sexual relationship with Mitchell but it had been difficult to keep him away. The woman met him about seven times, which she said she knew she should not have done but did so for the sake of getting drugs and money from him. The Pc's victim said he would call at night and ask her to go to a hotel with him, but she would only meet him during the day and started ignoring his calls. After a while he stopped giving her tablets. She said: "I think it was disgusting. He totally abused his authority and took advantage of vulnerable people." But she said she had not reported what was happening. "I just thought, who would believe someone who had a criminal record, someone who was on drugs over a police officer?" When she was contacted by detectives investigating an officer she said she immediately knew who it was Speaking after the verdict, she said: "I feel relieved and just glad and happy that he is going to get punished for what he has done. "I am happy for all the officers involved for all the hard work they have put into the case. I wouldn't have really been able to do it if it wasn't for them." She said she was now settling into a new home, was hoping to start a family and had put drugs behind her.

The 27-year-old, who scored three goals in 52 appearances for the Exiles last season, has agreed a two-year deal with the Gills. The Irishman has previously played under Gillingham boss Justin Edinburgh at Rushden & Diamonds and Newport. "When I found out there was interest from Justin, I was more than happy to work with him again," he said. Edinburgh signed Byrne from Barnet in summer 2014, when he was in charge at Rodney Parade, and considered a move for the former Nottingham Forest trainee in January. Byrne becomes Gillingham's first signing of the summer. Find all the latest football transfers on our dedicated page. Residents were moved out of Westbury House near East Meon, Hampshire, following a Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspection. Inspectors said potential abuse had not been investigated, the home smelt of urine and staff were not vetted. Owner Dr Usha Naqvi called the CQC "extremely unfair and unreasonable". The March inspection, published in June, rated the home as inadequate and put it in special measures. It found that its 33 residents "were not protected from abuse, because safeguarding concerns were not appropriately reported or investigated". It added: "We found that staff had gaps in their employment history, references from friends and girlfriends, and one person had a criminal record which had not been risk assessed. "People were not protected by the prevention and control of infection. "Carpets were frayed and dirty and smelt of urine, floors were visibly soiled, walls and floor coverings indicated visible stains and discolouring with dirt and grime." However, it highlighted that "people and their relatives felt that staff were kind and compassionate and treated them with respect". Dr Naqvi said the home was usually "spotlessly clean" and criticised inspectors for visiting early in the day. He added: "We have very good staff, but they wanted us to have even more staff. What more do they want? Blood? "The residents were very sad to leave. It's a beautiful building in exquisite countryside and it was their home, the longest had been here for 30 years. "They didn't want to go, they were crying, they wanted pictures taken with me. I said there's nothing I can do about it. "Quality is important, not the quantity of the nursing staff."

The League Two side's injury list now contains 14 players, also including defenders Tom Eastman and Frankie Kent. Guthrie, 23, has 12 goals this term, but requires ankle surgery after going off against Hartlepool. Slater, 22, has played 32 times, but has had an operation after playing with double hernia and groin problems. The freak weather ripped the guttering and tiles from roofs in Park Bottom, Illogan, in Cornwall and left them in a nearby field on Tuesday night. Stunned residents described a "massive whirling noise" as windows were blown in and debris smashed into cars. Weather experts said it was "plausible" that a tornado was whipped up during a severe storm. The freak weather struck at abut 21:15 GMT, said John Budd, whose 6ft (1.8m) by 8ft (2.4m) wooden summerhouse was ripped from his garden. "All of a sudden there was a loud roaring noise and then a bang," he said. "I thought a plane had come down." Mr Budd's summerhouse roof had been blown four houses down the street and landed in Trev Harris's garden after striking his conservatory and roof. Roof slates were piled on the ground outside. A large trampoline had also been catapulted four houses down the street. Mr Harris said: "I said to my wife we have a shed-load of material in the garden and then I realised it was a shed." Neighbour Dave Crabtree said: "There was an almighty sound of the wind whistling. The window was vibrating and all the glass shattered into the living room. "It went everywhere. It missed my wife Lynne by an inch or two." BBC weatherman Kevin Thomas said: "It sounds like a tornado; the clues are the roaring sound and the localisation of the damage and the fact that weighty objects have been picked up." A lightning strike blasted a hole in the roof of a house in Hayle during the storm. Snow caused hazardous driving conditions in Cornwall, especially around Launceston, and the A3074 near Lelant was closed after high winds brought down trees and power cables. Thieves targeted the private property in High Street, Old Town, Hastings, on Monday between 16:00 and 18:00 GMT. The large picture, painted by artist Stella Vine and measuring about 5ft by 4ft, was taken from the living room. It is not known whether it had been bought as an investment or whether the owner had links to the Yates' family. But after floods wreaked havoc across Northern Ireland, the school has turned their field into County Fermanagh's newest canoe polo venue. Students took on their teachers in a game of canoe polo played in kayaks on Thursday. The pupils had the bragging rights after winning that match 4-2. They celebrated by dunking their teachers and capsizing their boats. Water levels on the pitch are currently two to three feet deep. Teacher Colin Lyons said there was "banter" between the staff and the students in the lead up to the game. "The pupils have benefited from six weeks practise, the staff have some experience and inexperience." Mr Lyons said that a number of safety precautions were in place for the match. "There's a good flush of water from Lough Erne through there, which means the water is clean and safe," he said. Mr Lyons said the only concerns around the match related to the cold. Flooding has affected how Devenish College students travel to school each day. "A lot of the pupils are from rural areas so it has been quite difficult to get in," Mr Lyons said. "Thankfully people have been able to find a way, people in Fermanagh have been quite resourceful in finding ways of getting people back into schools."

The event sees revellers chase a wheel of Double Gloucester down a steep hill and has seen some participants injured. Diana Smart, who makes the 7lb (3kg) cheese for the event at her Churcham farm, said police warned her about her responsibilities as organiser. She said: "It made me feel pretty angry... there's not a lot we can do," Mrs Smart, 86, who has made cheese for the event for 25 years, said police had warned her she could be regarded as responsible if anybody was injured. The cheese-rolling at Cooper's Hill dates back to at least the early 19th Century and this year's event is set to take place on Monday. Some 15,000 people turned up for the last official cheese-rolling event in 2009 but the hill, near Brockworth, is only suitable to host about 5,000 spectators. Unofficial races organised by local enthusiasts have been held during the late spring bank holiday each year since. A Gloucestershire Police spokesman said: "Advice has been given to all those who have participated in any planning of an unofficial cheese rolling event this coming bank holiday. "This included the individuals who provide the cheese. "We feel it is important that those who, by law, could be constituted as organisers of the event that they are aware of the responsibilities that come with it so that they can make an informed decision about their participation." Police said they had visited Mrs Smart to advise her that, in the absence of a recognised organiser, anyone who facilitates the event could be deemed to be an organiser by default. "In this case that person could then attract the legal liability issues that come with hosting the cheese-rolling," a spokesman said. 7 November 2015 Last updated at 10:10 GMT It's called an Eastern Coyote and weighs in at 25kg. It's twice the size of a traditional coyote, it's jaws are bigger and it's got stronger muscles to help it hunt and target different types of prey like rabbets and even deer. Researchers say that 10% of its genetic material is from a dog which means it survives better near people than wolves or coyotes, and can sometimes be seen in city environments. Dr Roland Kays of North Carolina State University says the animal is one of the great success stories of inter-species animal breeding. He says "the animal is so smart it even looks both ways before crossing the road". Speaking at the launch of the EFL's Every Player Counts initiative, Mills said the sport must resist becoming "set in its ways". More than £1m from the Wembley National Stadium Trust will be shared by 25 EFL clubs to increase opportunities and get 10,000 more disabled people involved. "Football is huge for everybody. It brings people together," said Mills. "People are still a bit scared of disability. Anyone who is a bit different, we fear. We've got to create safe environments and encourage people to get involved. It's hugely rewarding." The donation is the Wembley National Stadium Trust's largest single donation and its first England-wide grants programme. The Denmark international, 21, has played 161 games for Ajax and scored 32 goals since joining in 2008. "Everyone has followed the development of Spurs and it's something I want to be part of," said Eriksen. He became Spurs third signing in 24 hours, following Romanian defender Vlad Chiriches, 23, and Argentina striker Erik Lamela, 21 to White Hart Lane. Chiriches became the club's fifth summer purchase when he completed his £8.5m move from Steaua Bucharest. In a statement, Spurs said they were "delighted" with the deal for the player, capped 19 times by his country. Later in the day Lamela signed from Roma in a deal that the Italian Serie A side claimed to be worth £25.7m. It also includes up to £4.2m in bonus payments. The purchase of Eriksen is likely to take their summer spending to just under £105m in this transfer window and paves the way for Gareth Bale to join Real Madrid in a world-record move.

The body of 46-year-old Sharon Greenop was found by police in her home in the town on 10 November, after neighbours reportedly complained of a bad smell. Earlier this week, following a post-mortem examination, police said they were treating her death as "suspicious". The women were due to appear at Ayr Sheriff Court on Monday. They were detained in police custody. Most of the internet company's $33bn (£21.8bn) value is attributed to its shareholding in Alibaba. The decision is the opposite of the strategy announced in January to spin off its 15% stake in Alibaba. Yahoo's internet business will now be put into a new company to be listed on the stock market. Investors in Yahoo will get shares in the new company on a pro-rata basis. Yahoo bought 40% of Alibaba in 2005 for $1bn. The current holding is worth about $30bn. Chief executive Marissa Mayer said the new plan would help ensure that Yahoo's internet business was "accurately valued". She also said she was "taking further steps to tighten our focus and prioritise our investments to drive growth". More details about the move will be outlined in late January when Yahoo announces its fourth-quarter results. The plan to spin off the Alibaba stake hit a hurdle in September when US tax authorities denied a request from Yahoo to decide whether the deal would be tax-free. Yahoo shareholders could have ended up paying billions of dollars if the deal was ruled to be taxable. Analysts said Wednesday's announcement could make it easier for Yahoo to sell its internet business. They include websites, mobile apps and advertising services and could be worth between $3bn and $5bn. Roger Kay, analyst at Endpoint Technologies Associates, said Yahoo's internet business still had some value, given its huge global audience and expertise in online advertising. "I don't know if Marissa Mayer is the right person to lead to company out of the desert, but it can be done," he said. "I think after the spin-off, it will establish its own level of value." Yahoo chairman Maynard Webb denied there were plans to sell the internet businesses. "We believe that we are tremendously undervalued and we think the best path to unlocking that value is by separating the Alibaba assets from our operating businesses and also turning around the performance in our operating business," he said. Obtaining the necessary shareholder and regulatory approval meant the Alibaba transaction could take as long as a year to complete. After initially rising, shares in Yahoo fell 3.1% to $33.76 in afternoon trading in New York. Ms Mayer, 40, is expecting to give birth to twin girls this month, but plans to take only a short period of time off work. She returned to work just two weeks after giving birth to her first child in 2013. The famously blue-blooded creatures come to the tidal flats in southern and western Japan each year to lay eggs, and some normally die off. But this year conservationists say up to 10 crabs have died each day, eight times higher than normal, according to the Japanese newspaper Asahi Shimbun. Some think the die-off means the crabs will lay fewer eggs next year. The creatures are not true crabs, being most closely related to spiders and scorpions. They are classified as an endangered species in Japan, where their habitat is being destroyed. Experts cite the effects of global warming, a lack of places to lay eggs and disease as possible causes for the crabs' demise. Horseshoe crabs are one of the world's oldest creatures and are prized for their blue blood. Scientists have harvested the horseshoe's blue blood since the 1970s to test the sterility of medical equipment and intravenous drugs. The blood coagulates around tiny amounts of bacteria, immobilising the pathogens. One litre can sell for $15,000 (£11,360).

The Met said its central e-crime unit would investigate the claims, including three that were made outside London. On Wednesday, four female journalists, a student and a social media manager said they had received bomb threats. A Labour MP and a feminist campaigner were separately threatened with rape. Police have made two arrests in connection with the rape threats. In a statement, the Met said a centralised investigation of all eight allegations, even though outside its "operational remit", would "make the most effective use of resources, avoid duplication by separate investigation teams and use the expertise and national reach of the [e-crime unit]". The Guardian's Hadley Freeman, the Independent's Grace Dent and Time magazine's Catherine Mayer all said they had received identical bomb threats on Wednesday. Anonymous tweets warned that bombs would explode outside their homes. The Telegraph's Emma Barnett revealed the following day that she too had received the same threat, and had responded by shutting down her computer and "rushing out of the office to meet an old contact down the pub". The anonymous Twitter accounts were suspended and the threatening tweets deleted shortly after they were reported, but not before screen-grabs of the threats had been widely circulated online. Labour MP Stella Creasy and campaigner Caroline Criado-Perez, who successfully fought for a woman's face to appear on £10 bank-notes, were threatened on Twitter with rape in separate incidents last weekend. Two men arrested on suspicion of harassment in connection with the allegations have been released on bail by police. A 25-year-old was held by Northumbria Police on 30 July in connection with both allegations, while a 21-year-old was arrested in Manchester on 28 July over the threat against Ms Criado-Perez. Twitter has said it plans to make reporting abuse easier, by bringing a "report abuse" function already available on the iPhone app version of the micro-blogging site to other phones and platforms. Ms Mayer said at the time of the threat she had been tempted to ignore and delete the "not very credible-sounding" tweet. "Dick Dastardly might have scripted the threat," she wrote later. "It was a cartoonish warning and in notifying the police, I set the weighty analogue wheels of justice in motion in pursuit of a puny digital miscreant."
The Metropolitan Police have said they are investigating allegations by eight people of "harassment, malicious communication or bomb threats" suffered on social networking site Twitter.

The ban was imposed in 2012 - the trust said it was a "sin" to allow women to touch the tombs of male saints. Women's activists campaigning to enter the shrine have described Monday's development as a "huge victory". "We are grateful the courts are standing by us in our fight against the patriarchal attitudes of men running religious shrines," Zakia Soman of the rights group Bharatiya Muslim Mahila Andolan (BMMA), which has challenged the ban on women entering the 15th Century shrine in the court, told the BBC. Although women were allowed into the compound and other parts of the Haji Ali mosque, the 2012 ban barred them from entering the inner sanctum which housed the tomb of a Sufi saint. Many Islamic mosques belonging to the Shia and Sunni sects also allow women inside, though many keep them in clearly demarcated areas. India women fight to enter temples In recent months, India has seen a number of campaigns to allow women into religious shrines that bar their entry. Activists - both Hindu and Muslim - have dragged patriarchal managements of shrines to courts all across India. On Monday, the Haji Ali shrine trust told the court that it would allow women to enter the shrine within a month. Ms Soman said the trust should not have challenged the high court order in the Supreme Court since "their stand to keep women out is not tenable - legally or morally". Most Sufi shrines across the country, and globally, allow women into the sanctum, and until the ban, they were allowed to touch the tomb of the saint at Haji Ali, Ms Soman says.

Brokers say that, in recent years, the best deals were only available to those offering a large deposit, but there were now signs of change. However, a new record rate five-year mortgage, newly on sale, still requires a 40% deposit. The HSBC mortgage, with a rate of 1.99%, also comes with a ??1,499 fee. Earlier this month, lenders told the Bank of England that demand for new mortgages had fallen for a third successive quarter. The bank's Credit Conditions Survey found that demand for mortgages for high-value property saw the biggest fall since the third quarter of 2008. Having been concentrated on this market, there are now signals that banks and building societies are casting their net a little wider. The survey found that lenders were showing a greater willingness to lend to borrowers who were only able to offer a deposit of less than 10% of the property's value so far this year. "The lenders are stepping up the fight to attract new borrowers and rates are still getting cheaper," said Aaron Strutt, of broker Trinity Financial. "First-time buyers with a 5% deposit can take a fixed rate just over 4% and if they can raise a 10% deposit the rates are as low as 2.69%. "A few years ago borrowers needed a 40% deposit to access a really good mortgage, but now rates are cheap for most new buyers. "HSBC's latest fixed rate really takes the mortgage price war into new territory and even cheaper deals may well filter through to the market." Nearly two-thirds of mortgage holders are sticking to a variable rate as the Bank of England's base rate is showing no signs of rising from its historic low of 0.5%. Charlotte Nelson, of financial information service Moneyfacts, said that 15 lenders had cut mortgage rates in a week - partly to try to tempt some variable rate customers back to fixed rates. "The competition to be the lowest in the mortgage market shows no signs of stopping and is great news for borrowers," she said. All this appears to be good news for first-time buyers struggling to afford a property. Yet, there are still significant hurdles for these, generally young, potential property owners. The most eye-catching deals - such as HSBC's home loan which is said to be the first five-year mortgage with a rate of under 2% - can still come with significant fees and deposit requirements. Ms Nelson said borrowers needed to consider the whole package to work out the cost of the loan. Borrowers also face strict affordability checks that test whether they are able to cope with an interest rate rise. Property website Rightmove also reported a rise in average asking prices, suggesting homes are becoming less affordable for first-time buyers. It said new sellers' asking prices increased by 1.6%, or ??4,381, in April compared with March to reach ??286,133 on average across England and Wales, surpassing a previous peak reached last June. The event in New York's Lincoln Centre Plaza will be attended by 200 guests, including GSA alumni and expatriates. They will be told of plans to restore the Grade A-listed art nouveau Mackintosh building that was badly damaged in the blaze on 23 May 2014. Ms Sturgeon is on a four-day visit to the US - her first as first minister. Earlier, the first minister appeared on one of American television's top chat shows. She took part in The Daily Show, hosted by Jon Stewart, and questioned her billing on the show's website as a "comedian". The GSA reception she will host aims to boost the profile of the Mackintosh appeal which hopes to raise £20m towards the eventual cost of restoration of the building and its contents. The New York event will also provide a platform for sharing details of the planned restoration project with existing and potential new supports. Patrons of the appeal include the American actor Brad Pitt as well as Scots actor and former GSA student Peter Capaldi. Director of Glasgow School of Art, Professor Tom Inns, told the BBC that the fundraiser is the first outside of Scotland. Speaking on BBC Radio Scotland's Newsdrive programme, he said: "We have always had great links into North America. A lot of our students are from the States and many of our students work in New York. "There is also huge interest in Mackintosh and the building and there has been a lot of interest in the last 12 months." Prof Inns said the school intends to update, as well as restore, its building following the devastating fire last year.

Sean Williams (51) and Sikandar Raza (50) hit half centuries but Murtagh's four wickets helped bowl Zimbabwe out for 187 in 49.2 overs. After Paul Stirling hit 51, Ireland slid to 160-8 as a home win loomed. But the late partnership from Murtagh and McBrine ensured Ireland's victory with 3.1 overs to spare. The win keeps Ireland in 11th place in the ICC rankings - just ahead of Afghanistan, who start their series against Zimbabwe later this week. Ireland started the three-match Harare series 10th in the world rankings but Zimbabwe's two opening victories saw them move above their opponents. Murtagh's best one-day international bowling figures contributed to Zimbabwe collapsing from 159-4 to 187 all out. Williams stroked eight boundaries in a fluent 51 before being dismissed by Paul Stirling while the dangerous Raza was bowled by Murtagh immediately after reaching his half century. George Dockrell then produced two brilliant run outs in the space of six balls as the Zimbabwe innings imploded. William Porterfield got the Irish run chase off to a fast start as 18 runs came off the first over before he was out for 20. After Ed Joyce (7) went cheaply, Stirling's knock helped take Ireland to 94-2 before Balbirnie (24) ran himself out for the second game in succession. Stirling reached a cautious 50 from 92 balls but after the opener's dismissal, Gary Wilson (19), Kevin O'Brien (10) and George Dockrell (13) all departed despite getting starts as Ireland slumped to 160-8. However, Murtagh helped settle Ireland nerves with two boundaries in his unbeaten 19 and was supported by Donemana's McBrine with an unbeaten 14.
A ninth-wicket partnership of 29 by Tim Murtagh and Andy McBrine helped Ireland edge a consolation win in the last game of their one-day series in Zimbabwe.

Signalling equipment was damaged in the blaze, temporarily cutting Euston's power supply and leading to its evacuation, Network Rail said. Engineers hope to restore services as soon as possible but delays are likely, after the fire in South Hampstead. The whole of the West Coast mainline was affected, as far as Liverpool. Customers on London Midland, Virgin and Southern trains were all disrupted, with services affected at Clapham Junction and Milton Keynes Central. The fire, which broke out on Wednesday afternoon, also had an impact on a stretch of the London Overground line between Euston and Harrow & Wealdstone. Network Rail said: "Train customers are impacted in London and the length of the West Coast main line, including Birmingham, Manchester and Liverpool." It said emergency generators had been brought in to provide temporary power to signals and help get trains moving. "Engineers are preparing to work through the night to install 100 metres of 11,000-volt power cables, with the aim of getting services back to normal [on Thursday] morning," it added.

But for all his recent success, Betts says "you are only as good as your last play", which means all eyes are on The National Joke, a "tragi-comic" tale of an MP's "very dysfunctional family who come together on the south coast of England to view a total solar eclipse". Betts says the idea for the play came to him while reading a book about eclipses. "I was reading Totality, which is about total eclipses and had all the myths that have sprung up around them and what they meant to people in cultures before we understood the science. "You are often looking for a reason to trap a group of individuals together or have them gathering together. "So as I was reading it, I thought this would be an interesting way to frame a play." And he says that while it tells the story of a Tory MP on the periphery of the party, he is "not promoting a left or right-wing view". "A lot of my recent plays have been explorations of the left-wing and I thought I'd have a look at the other side. "But it looks at the fact that there's no point having these values and identifying yourself with a position when you are unable to love each other properly. "That's what the play looks at. There's a definite lack of nurture and love in it." Ultimately though, he says the work, like "most of my plays - or even most plays full stop", is about the "symptoms of human madness". "Most of us are slightly mad. The human mind is a dysfunctional entity in many ways and the system we're forced into can make us mad and make us unable to live in the present moment and love each other properly. "I'm trying to demonstrate this is what we're like and there is a way to make ourselves slightly more sane. I'm trying to lay it bare and show what is going on. "Maybe there is something beyond personalities sticking to fixed political positions, which is where the eclipse comes in - there's this huge natural event which dwarfs all these petty squabbles that the family have and makes them put things into context. "It's an examination of where we are at the moment." Associate artistic director Henry Bell, who is helming the production of The National Joke at Scarborough's Stephen Joseph Theatre, says when he read the play, he "found it really funny". "I was taken on a comic journey with it, which then becomes a more intense experience,," he says. "It wasn't until I finished that I went 'ah, this is actually a state of the nation play' - that wasn't running through my head when I was reading it. "That was a good sign, because if you can see what the playwright is trying to do, that's usually a sign that it's a preachy play or an ego piece." He says he thought about bringing Betts's new work to his stage because of the playwright's history with the theatre, which he admits he used as a "carrot to dangle in front of him and say 'it's been a while and you're grown - come back to what you know'". Betts became the theatre's writer-in-residence in 1999 at the invitation of then-artistic director Sir Alan Ayckbourn and says it is "nice to be back", though he finds the comparisons of their work "a bit trying". "Even when I'm being praised, it's always because Alan mentored me in the correct fashion, which is slightly galling because he was just the artistic director of the theatre that put my play on. "I'm 50 in a couple of years and in reviews, I'm still the protegee. But there can't be that many reviews that haven't mentioned him. "My plays are very different to his. Some of them do cover similar landscapes - middle-class dysfunction with laughs and a bit of tragedy - but they are angrier and darker." Bell says the comparison "reduces how prolific Alan's been as a writer and it does the same to Torben". "There's crucial differences - Torben's much more interested in the actual specific political landscape of this country, whereas I think Alan tends to be more universal in how he presents things. "If you see this play, you won't think that it's an Alan Ayckbourn play. But the one thing I will say they have in common is that they have an ability to make the dark seem comic. "Alan's a master at that and Torben has that in his plays too." Betts admits when he's in Scarborough, "there's no avoiding it, so I just go with it". As far as he's concerned though, he has more important things to consider, like writing his next work. He says the burden of success "doesn't weigh on my shoulders", though admits "you always put a pressure on yourself to make your stuff as good as it can be". "I've been trundling along with maybe a production a year, but the last couple of years, it's got a lot busier," he says. "The nice thing is that the more exposure and the more success you get, the more chance you've got of getting something else on." The National Joke is at Scarborough's Stephen Joseph Theatre until 20 August.
With his critically-acclaimed play Invincible being translated into several languages and his recent adaptation of the iconic film Get Carter garnering great reviews, playwright Torben Betts is at "a really good moment" of his career.

The Iron, under new manager Graham Alexander, dominated a scrappy first half as goalkeeper Adam Davies saved George Williams' low effort and Jim O'Brien twice shot wide. Conor Hourihane came close for Barnsley after the break but goalkeeper Luke Daniels tipped his effort over the bar. Josh Brownhill's strike in the final minutes then went wide for the Tykes. The draw keeps Barnsley in the final League One play-off position, just one point ahead of Bradford City. Scunthorpe United manager Graham Alexander told BBC Radio Humberside: Media playback is not supported on this device "We were the better team in the first half. We caused some problems and mixed the play up really well when we had possession. "I don't think some of the decisions helped. There were too many nothing 50/50 goings against us. But I want to have a good relationship with referees and he was good enough to have a proper chat with me. "For the team and the players the effort was fantastic. You could see the determination to get a result." Raven was first aired in 2002 and last shown in 2010. The fantasy adventure children's game show involves contestants being guided on a quest by "an immortal shape-shifting Scottish warrior". The revamped show, which is filming in the Cairngorms National Park between July and September, stars River City's Aisha Toussaint. She takes over from original Raven, James Mackenzie, who will be returning to feature during the "new quest to find an ultimate warrior". Toussaint, 21, said: "I'm absolutely thrilled to be the new Raven. "I was a massive fan of the original series and remember rushing home from school so I didn't miss an episode - it was always so exciting. "I used to dream of one day being a warrior contestant - I never for a second imagined that I'd one day be Raven. My 11-year-old self would be gobsmacked." "Pulling on the costume for the very first time was a very special moment." Cheryl Taylor, Controller, CBBC, said the overwhelming response was testament to Raven's popularity. She added: "Raven has always inspired a passionate and loyal following from CBBC fans and it's clear from the number of children keen to participate in the new series that its enduring and powerful appeal lives on. "The return of Raven has caused great excitement and we wait with anticipation to meet the new cast and immerse ourselves in this legendary battle." The series is expected to be aired later in the year.

The 16-mile route runs between Bewdley in Worcestershire and Brignorth in Shropshire but part of it has been closed due to repair work. Staff have been repairing and replacing the tracks at Arley in Worcestershire and restoring the waterproof membrane on the viaduct by Bewdley. Six tonnes of copper were stolen from the Bridgnorth site in January. At the time of the incident, police described the theft as "audacious" after thieves apparently broke in at night and hot-wired a crane to take the metal from the boiler works.

Mark Crockett made the explosive device after checking into a chalet at Logierait Pine Lodges near Pitlochry, Perthshire, in February. The 53-year-old wrote a suicide note and a letter to police explaining how the nail bomb had been constructed. Crockett, of Falkirk, admitted making the device. Sentence was deferred. The High Court in Aberdeen heard that concerned staff called out paramedics before the caterer carried out his plan to end his own life at the holiday park. Managers had visited his lodge when he failed to check out of the chalet and discovered he had a head injury and was under the influence of alcohol and drugs. One of the paramedics called to the property read a note in the lodge which said: "I am dead. Please do not enter. "There is a nail bomb on the light blue bag. This is for London Borough Barnet social services. You are blessed. Change your ways." The holiday park was evacuated. Advocate depute Alyson Forbes said Crockett had contacted his local social work department and informed staff that he was not coping well at the end of 2014. He was involved in a dispute with family and concerns were raised about his mental health. On 2 February he headed off on a two-day trip to stay in the chalet near Pitlochry. Police were called after he was discovered in the lodge two days later. Glue, screws and a metal container filled with sugar were recovered during a search of the lodge. The device had a fuse which could be set alight causing it to explode. However, further examinations showed that the device would have failed to work properly. More than 400 morphine tablets were recovered during searches of the lodge and his Falkirk home, along with cannabis and Tramadol. Some of the drugs had been prescribed to his late mother before she died in 2011. Defence lawyer Tony Lenehan said his client had reached the point of "emotional collapse" when the incident happened. He said: "He simply went there with the intention of ending his own life with his mother's morphine tablets and he had assembled the device. "The metal cylinder is an aftershave tin. I think it would be reasonable to describe the construction of it as somewhat inept." Crockett also pled guilty to being in possession of morphine, cannabis and Tramadol. Sentence was deferred until 7 January.
A former hospitality manager sparked a major incident at a Scottish holiday resort after building a nail bomb with sugar, a court has heard.

Ond dywedodd Llywodraeth Cymru fod disgwyl i'r tri chyngor - Casnewydd, Blaenau Gwent a Thorfaen - ddangos gwelliant sylweddol yn eu perfformiadau o ran ailgylchu. Cafodd penderfyniad Llywodraeth Cymru ei feirniadu gan y gwrthbleidiau, gyda rhai yn dweud fod strategaeth y llywodraeth wedi colli hygrededd. Mae gweinidogion ym Mae Caerdydd wedi gosod targedau ailgylchu heriol ar gyfer yr awdurdodau lleol - gyda bygythiad o ddirwyon i'r rhai sydd ddim yn eu cyrraedd. Ar gyfer 2015-16 y targed oedd ailgylchu 58% o wastraff, gyda 19 o 22 o gynghorau Cymru yn cyrraedd y nod. Ar gyfartaledd llwyddodd cynghorau i ailgylchu 60.2% o wastraff. Roedd Casnewydd a Thorfaen ychydig yn fyr gan gyrraedd 57%, ond Blaenau Gwent berfformiodd wanaf gyda 49%. Pe bai'r cynghorau wedi derbyn cosb o £200 am bob tunnell oedd yn uwch na'r targed, byddai Blaenau Gwent wedi derbyn cosb o £537,000. Dywedodd Llywodraeth Cymru - wnaeth osod y targedau statudol cyntaf ar gyfer ailgylchu yn y DU - fod disgwyl cynnydd sylweddol ar gyfer perfformiadau'r tri chyngor yn 2016-17. "O ganlyniad fe wnaethpwyd penderfyniad i beidio dirwyo'r tri yma," meddai llefarydd. Yn ôl y ffigyrau diweddara' sydd ar gael hyd at Fedi 2016 mae Casnewydd wedi llwyddo i ailgylchu 60%, a Thorfaen 63%. Dyw ffigyrau diweddara' Blaenau Gwent heb eu gwirio eto, ond mae'r ffigyrau yn awgrymu fod y canran wedi codi i tua 57%. Nid dyma'r tro cyntaf i Lywodraeth Cymru beidio â gosod dirwyon am fethu targedau ailgylchu. Yn 2015, gwnaed penderfyniad tebyg yn achos Caerdydd a Rhondda Cynon Taf. Yn y dyfodol bydd targedau Llywodraeth Cymru yn fwy uchelgeisiol ac erbyn 2020 bydd disgwyl i awdurdodau ailgylchu 64% o wastraff, gyda hyn yn cynyddu i 70% erbyn 2025. Dywedodd Rebecca Colley-Jones, cyfarwyddwr gydag Ynys Resources, fod Blaenau Gwent wedi gwella ei berfformiad dros y blynyddoedd diwethaf ac "os mai pwrpas y dirwyon yw gwneud i gynghorau gyrraedd y targedau, yna maen nhw'n bendant yn gwneud y peth cywir, ac nid y peth anghywir". Ond dywedodd Simon Thomas AC, llefarydd Plaid Cymru ar yr amgylchedd: "Mae'n ymddangos i mi fod y llywodraeth yn colli hygrededd yn y fan hyn, pan 'dyn ni'n mynd trwy ddau gyfnod o osod targedi, a bod rhai awdurdodau yn methu ddwywaith, ac yna nad ydych chi'n gweithredu." Dywedodd Gareth Bennett AC, llefarydd UKIP ar lywodraeth leol, fod y polisi ddim wedi ei lunio'n dda ac y byddai gosod dirwyon ond yn "taro awdurdodau lleol a threthdalwyr y cyngor yn eu pocedi". Yn ôl David Melding AC, llefarydd y Ceidwadwyr ar yr amgylchedd, "dylai fod yna anogaeth ar gyfer cynghorau sy'n tanberfformio i wella eu perfformiad". Ychwanegodd fod y llywodraeth "mewn peryg o fod yn gi sy'n cyfarth ond ddim yn brathu". Dywedodd llefarydd ar ran Democratiaid Rhyddfrydol Cymru: "Ni all Llywodraeth Cymru obeithio cwrdd â'r targedau ailgylchu os yw cynghorau yn gwybod y gallant fethu targedau heb wynebu cosb." Ychwanegodd Plaid Werdd Cymru fod prinder cyllid ar gyfer cynghorau wedi arwain at fethu targedau. Mewn ymateb dywedodd llefarydd ar ran Llywodraeth Lafur Cymru: "Mae Cymru yn arwain y ffordd wrth ailgylchu, ac yn ôl adroddiad diweddar gan Resource ni yw'r drydedd wlad orau yn y byd o ran ailgylchu." Ychwanegodd fod pethau yn edrych yn hynod addawol o ran cwrdd â'r targed o 70% erbyn 2025. Yn ôl Duncan Smith, o Gyngor Torfaen, mae'r awdurdod yn ffyddiog o gyrraedd a gwella'r targed o 63% erbyn 2016-17. Ychwanegodd Cyngor Casnewydd eu bod yn ddiolchgar fod Llywodraeth Cymru wedi cydnabod "yr ymdrech sylweddol sydd wedi ei wneud i leihau gwastraff a chynyddu ailgylchu yn y ddinas".
Bydd y tri awdurdod lleol yng Nghymru wnaeth fethu eu targed ailgylchu o 58% o wastraff y llynedd yn osgoi cael eu cosbi.

It claimed several hundred fares, at just £69, were available on each of three new US routes. They were also offered for new transatlantic links with Cork, Shannon, Dublin and Belfast. The flights were advertised in other countries at even cheaper rates of 69 euros and $65. The rush for cheap seats led to 20,000 tickets being sold within three days. Prices now range from £160 to £280 one-way, with about £65 more to check in one piece of luggage. The marketing method, pioneered by Ryanair, has been criticised in the New York Times, which said the airline "offers a kind of bare-bones intercontinental travel that American travellers may be unused to". The introduction of Norwegian into small airports for transatlantic flights was met with lobbying resistance from other airlines and labour unions in the USA. A Norwegian airline spokesman said the ultra-low fare was only intended as "an introductory price", and that affordable tickets were still available. The Edinburgh routes will connect from 15 June with small, low-cost airports in Rhode Island, Connecticut and an airbase north of New York City. He replaces Brazilian coach Marcos Paqueta, who was sacked on Sunday. Mido will be working alongside Hazem Emam, who has been appointed as the club's football director. "We'll work towards the future, to rebuild the team, maintain discipline and set a new clear working system," Mido told Al Ahram newspaper. Emam is also a former Zamalek player and while they did not play together at club level, they played alongside each other for Egypt at the 2004 Africa Cup of Nations. The duo were in Qatar working as TV analysts when the decision was taken and are set to return on Monday and start work immediately as the team prepares for Tuesday's league match against Dakhlia. "Time is limited which makes it impossible to make any changes before tomorrow's game. I will depend on the current formation for the game against Dakhlia," he said. "Then I will focus on the determined players, who'll be selected to play based on their effort and determination to play and win." The former Libya coach Paqueta had only been in charge since November and oversaw just five games during which time they won just once, drew twice and lost twice. The results left Zamalek fifth in the Egyptian Premier League, one place and one point behind their great rivals Al Ahly. "I still believe that Zamalek is the strongest team this season, even more than Al Ahly, and is capable of defending its title," Mido insisted. "It's still too early to tell who will win this season's title - it is only in week 12 and both Ahly and Zamalek have three games in hand." Mido retired from playing in 2013 and took on his first coaching role in January 2014 when he took over at his former club Zamalek. During his first season in charge, Zamalek finished third in the league and secured a place in last year's Confederation Cup. He also won the Egypt Cup, making him the youngest Egyptian manager to win a major trophy. But at the end of July 2014 Mido was replaced by Hossam Hassan following some modest performances and results as well as differences with the club management. A year later, he took over at Ismaili but after just six months Mido once again started having differences with the club's board regarding the team's star player Hosni Abd Rabou. A row between the two on the touchline during a league match recently did not go down well with the club's fans and prompted Mido to step down from his post.

Maloney, who had two previous spells at Celtic, will be a development coach with the Scottish champions' under-20s. He made 215 appearances for Celtic, scoring 52 goals, winning five league titles, five Scottish Cups and three League Cups. Capped 47 times for Scotland, Maloney also featured for Aston Villa, Wigan and Chicago Fire. "I think he'll bring a lot," said Celtic first-team coach John Kennedy. "He's decided himself he wants to stop playing and move into the coaching side. "The manager and the club had a chat with him and decided they were happy to bring him on board. "He's a guy who brings a wealth of experience in terms of starting at the club as a young player and moving into the first team and being very successful. "He's a model professional, a player our first team players will look up to, never mind our young players. "When he does things he does things properly. He'll bring a lot to the table."

He was arrested on 8 February and appeared at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Thursday. No pleas were entered and he was remanded in custody to appear at the Old Bailey on 23 February. Mr Saunders is charged with five counts of possessing a record of a kind likely to be useful to a person committing or preparing an act of terrorism. The material allegedly contained details of how to carry out terror attacks, including using a knife and driving a vehicle towards a large crowd of people, the court was told. A copy of The Anarchist Cookbook was also allegedly found on his phone, containing information on how to make explosive devices. The 27-year-old Algeria international spent one season at West Ham after joining the Premier League club on a three-year deal from La Liga side Valencia last year. Feghouli scored four goals in 27 appearances for the Hammers, including one against NK Domzale in the Europa League in West Ham's first match at the club's new London Stadium last July. After the deal was announced, Feghouli expressed his gratitude to West Ham supporters following his brief spell at the club. Paris-born Feghouli came through the ranks at French club Grenoble before joining Valencia.

Mr Corbyn will address music fans in the Left Field area, the line-up for which is organised by singer and activist Billy Bragg. The festival, which has already sold out, runs from 22 to 26 June - coinciding with the in-out referendum on the UK's EU membership on 23 June. Labour's shadow chancellor, John McDonnell, has also been invited. Left Field, which mixes "pop and politics", said Mr Corbyn would be given a platform to discuss issues including social justice, the economy, gender and "and the possibilities for genuine change". Politicians have taken part in debates at Glastonbury before, such as the Greens' Caroline Lucas and Labour MP Tom Watson - but Mr Corbyn is the first leader of the opposition to do so. The headline acts at this year's festival includes Adele, Muse and Coldplay. Nottingham City Council makes £60 from each penalty charge notice (PCN) issued in Shakespeare Street in Nottingham - or £30 if the fee is paid early. The Institute of Highway Engineers said the signs could be confusing and the council was on "dodgy ground". But the council insisted its signs were up to standard. It said in a statement: "The Shakespeare Street bus gate was only introduced last year, is properly signed and we would expect to see the numbers drop as people get used to the changes." Although this part of the road is not used by any scheduled bus services, the council said it was used by buses taking students to Nottingham Trent University. The western end of Shakespeare Street is described as a "Pedestrian Zone" at both entrances but other signs warn there is "24 hr Bus Lane Enforcement". When asked what this was classed as, a council spokesperson said: "There's a bus gate on a section of Shakespeare Street which means only buses are allowed through. This therefore creates a pedestrian zone beyond." The council explained: •A bus lane generally runs alongside other traffic on a road allowing buses to gain priority over other traffic •A bus gate is an entry point across a road which means only buses are allowed to go any further •A pedestrian zone is an area where most vehicles are not allowed Richard Hayes, chief executive of the Institute of Highway Engineers, said Nottingham's signs could be confusing. He said the "box brownie" camera symbol on the approach to bus lanes should also have the words "bus lane cameras", like those used in other cities. "I do think we owe a duty of responsibility to any motorist, whether they be from the local area or from outside, to make sure we sign and line in a standard format," said Mr Hayes. "If that's not being done, then I think they are on very dodgy ground in terms of trying to enforce those restrictions." Last year Dr Stephen Sutcliffe from Liverpool won an appeal against a fine for using the lane, on the grounds signs were not clear. He said: "Since we were there they have put a temporary sign at one end of the bus lane in addition to the fixed signage that was there at the time, which suggests a tacit admission to the assertion the signage is inadequate." Nottingham City Council said: "There is absolutely no doubt the signs warning motorists about camera enforcement in Nottingham are up to standard, comply fully with Department for Transport guidelines, and that areas enforced by cameras in the city remain fully enforceable. "Motorists have a duty to observe all road signs and must comply with the restrictions - the vast majority do and are not issued with fines." It added it had challenged the ruling in Dr Sutcliffe's case and the matter was subject to judicial review.

It was Mr Flanagan's first visit to Northern Ireland since the formation of a Fine Gael minority government. Earlier, he met Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness. Speaking after the meeting, Mr McGuinness said he had had a "very wide-ranging discussion" with Mr Flanagan. The Irish foreign minister also met the new Stormont speaker, Robin Newton. Mr Flanagan did not meet First Minister Arlene Foster as she was not in Belfast at the time of his visit. The Irish foreign minister also met the victims' commissioner, Judith Thompson, to discuss the outstanding difficulties concerning the legacy of the Troubles. During his visit, Mr Flanagan raised the Irish government's concerns about the referendum on the UK's membership of the EU. Mr Flanagan met representatives of the Ardoyne community in north Belfast, including the widow of Michael McGibbon, who was murdered in north Belfast in April. He also met Irish Football Association (IFA) officials ahead of what he called the "hugely positive participation" by both the Ireland and Northern Ireland teams in next month's Euro 2016 championships. The sites are three of 56 across the UK that will be sold as part of a long-term strategy to reduce costs and improve efficiency. The sites are in County Down - Abercorn Barracks, Ballykinler; Kinnegar Logistics Base, Holywood; and Volunteer Gliding School at Newtownards Airfield. The move was announced by Sir Michael Fallon, the defence secretary. Sir Michael said it would deliver better value for money and release enough land to build 55,000 homes. It is estimated that about £140m will be saved over the next decade by selling off the sites, which Sir Michael said would be reinvested in creating "areas of military expertise" in locations across the country. However, Strangford MP Jim Shannon described the moves as "backwards" and "illogical". The MoD previously said it is considering knocking down the 200 houses at Abercorn Barracks. "It would be a rather backwards step because I think they should be retaining the accommodation for use as social housing," he said. He added that it appeared that the Kinnegar base would move to Palace Barracks nearby and it was "unconfirmed" as to whether any jobs would be lost because of the move. He said the decision to sell two hangars at Newtownards Airfield was an "unbelievable step". "There is no potential for housing to be built at this site. The decision hasn't been thought out clearly, particularly as we recently got funding for the air cadets." Officers were called to the school in South Lanarkshire on 21 December. It is understood parents were notified about the incident before the end of term. South Lanarkshire Council said it was aware of the incident. Police said a decision had still to be made on whether to refer the matter to a social work-led team or the Scottish Children's Reporter Administrator. A spokeswoman for Police Scotland said: "An 11-year-old male pupil at a primary school in South Lanarkshire has been referred to the Youth Justice Co-ordinator (a police officer within the Restorative Justice Department) for alleged drugs offences. "A decision has still to be made as to disposal - whether a referral to the Early and Effective Intervention Co-ordinator - a multi-agency team with a social work lead - or a police report to the Scottish Children's Reporter Administrator."

The film, about an alliance between gay rights campaigners and pit workers during the 1984 strike, collected three awards in total. Andrew Scott and Imelda Staunton won the best supporting actor and actress prizes for their roles in the film. Brendan Gleeson was named best actor for Calvary and Gugu Mbatha-Raw won best actress for Belle. Accepting the top award of the night, Pride director Matthew Warchus said: "We're getting reports from up and down the country of audiences standing up and applauding. That doesn't really happen in British cinemas. "It's just extraordinary. It's a real tribute to the source material." Writer Stephen Beresford added that the film had one "simple, compelling message: unite". "When I was first told the story I was blown away by it - people ask 'is that really true?' "It took 20 years to convince anyone that a film about vegan lesbian activists was a sure-fire hit." Confession Northern Ireland thriller '71 went into the awards with nine nominations but only picked up one prize on the night - best director for Yann Demange. Frank Sidebottom-inspired film Frank won best screenplay for its writers Jon Ronson and Peter Straughan. It also picked up a second award for technical achievement, for its music. Sameena Jabeen Ahmed was named most promising newcomer for her role in thriller Catch Me Daddy. "Independent film allows subjects to be approached that are not massive crowd-pullers," Gleeson said, after winning his best actor trophy for Calvary. "Fantastic films are made in the independent circuit. It's whether people want to pay for something that's going to challenge them," he added. Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard won best debut director for Nick Cave film 20,000 Days on Earth and drama The Goob won best achievement in production. The best documentary award went to sports film Next Goal Wins, while The Karman Line was named best short and the Raindance award went to fantasy drama Luna. Richard Linklater's Boyhood won best international film. The director accepted the award, giving a "a big shout-out to my friends on table one". He dedicated the award to If... and This Sporting Life director Lindsay Anderson. Although he lost out on winning the best actor prize, Benedict Cumberbatch was awarded the Variety award for helping "focus the international spotlight on the UK". The 38-year-old told the audience: "This award will inspire me to work harder, to make me feel like I deserve it - which won't be difficult, because I love my job." Oscar-winning actress Emma Thompson was presented with the Richard Harris award for outstanding contribution to British film. Joking about being given the award by a body honouring independent film, the actress - whose career has included a role in the blockbuster Harry Potter franchise - confessed: "I have taken small roles in big studio films for money, and I am sorry." The 61-year-old will have only 43 days to prepare the team before the country hosts the Africa Cup of Nations, which starts on 14 January. Camacho, who has been out of football since he was sacked as China coach in 2013, has signed a two-year deal to fill the vacancy left by Jorge Costa's dismissal last month. His former coaching jobs include Real Madrid, Sevilla, Espanyol and Benfica. Camacho enjoyed a highly successful playing career, the former left-back was capped 81 times by his country and made over 440 appearances for Real Madrid. His first competitive match as Gabon coach will be the Nations Cup opener against Guinea Bissau. Camacho will also be tasked with trying to qualify Gabon for the 2018 World Cup finals in Russia when, qualifiers resume in August. Anthony Churton, 67, was found dead at his home in Crescent Close at about 08:20 BST on Monday. North Wales Police said Mr Churton, former owner of Churtons wine bar in Rossett, lived alone at the property and was a "vulnerable man". Three other people have also been arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender.

Francis O'Connor, 41, from Carfin, North Lanarkshire, was caught during a police operation at the M80 Stirling Services on 30 September 2014. He was seen putting two boxes into a van which were later found to contain 200 blocks of cannabis resin. O'Connor's fingerprints were found on the boxes and he later admitted being concerned in the supply of the drug. Jailing him at the High Court in Glasgow, judge Graham Buchanan told O'Connor: 'This is a very serious offence because of the quantity and value of the cannabis resin. "I have decided because of the seriousness only a sentence of imprisonment applies." The court heard that the organised crime and counter terrorism unit of Police Scotland were conducting an undercover surveillance operation at Stirling Services. At about 09:45, O'Connor was seen in a white transit van outside the Travel Lodge Hotel. He moved items inside the van before driving off. Five minutes later he returned and parked beside a Mercedes Vito van. O'Connor then met up with the driver of the Mercedes van, John Donaldson, and handed him two large cardboard boxes. These were then placed in the back of the Mercedes van. Donaldson drove off and was stopped by police at 10:00. Officers found 50 kilos of cannabis resin divided into 200 blocks and forensic examination showed that O'Connor's fingerprints were on the boxes. O'Connor, who has 13 previous convictions for assaults and road traffic offences, admitted being concerned in the supply of cannabis resin. Donaldson, who was sentenced in January 2015, also admitted being concerned in the supply of heroin. He was jailed for 30 months.
A man who helped transport 50 kilos of cannabis resin with a street value of £142,850 has been jailed for 16 months.

The party gained two seats, overtaking the independents to become the largest group on the island's authority, with 14 seats. Meanwhile in Gwynedd, Plaid held its majority, with 41 seats, Llais Gwynedd won six and independents got 26. Labour and Liberal Democrats had one each. Conwy remains in no overall control. Independents took 20 seats, Conservatives 16, Plaid Cymru 10, Labour eight and Lib Dems four, while one seat went to a candidate with no named party. Turnout on Anglesey was 45.9%, down from 51% in the previous local election. In Gwynedd, lots had to be drawn after a dead heat between Plaid Cymru's John Wynn Jones and an independent candidate Richard Medwyn Hughes for the Hendre ward seat. The council's chief executive Dilwyn Williams drew the lot - and Richard Medwyn Hughes was duly elected councillor for Hendre. In Conwy, actor and TV presenter James Lusted was voted in as a Conservative Councillor for Rhos-on-Sea. Mr Lusted, who has dwarfism and is 3ft 7in, featured in a 2014 BBC Wales programme called Real Families: Born Small, which looked at his condition and his life.
Plaid Cymru increased its majority on Anglesey but fell short of a majority with the council remaining with no party in overall control.

The spacecraft is expected to crash into the planet's surface at 20:26 BST on Thursday; it made its final powered manoeuvre on 28 April. After reaching Mercury in 2011, Messenger has far exceeded its primary mission plan of one year in orbit. It is only slowly losing altitude but will hit at 8,750mph (14,000km/h). That means the 513kg craft, which is only 3m across, will blast a 16m crater into an area near the planet's north pole, according to scientists' calculations. All of Messenger's fuel, half its weight at launch, is completely spent; its last four manoeuvres, extending the flight as far as possible, have been accomplished by venting the helium gas normally used to pressurise actual rocket fuel into the thrusters. The high-speed collision, 12 times faster than sound, will obliterate this history-making craft. And it will only happen because Mercury has no thick atmosphere to burn up incoming objects - the same reason its surface is so pock-marked by impact craters. During its twice-extended mission, Messenger (MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, GEochemistry, and Ranging) transformed our understanding of Mercury. It sent back more than 270,000 images and 10 terabytes of scientific measurements. It found evidence for water ice hiding in the planet's shadowy polar craters, and discovered that Mercury's magnetic field is bizarrely off-centre, shifted along the planet's axis by 10% of its diameter. Messenger traces a highly elliptical orbit around Mercury, drifting out to a distance of nearly twice the planet's diameter before swinging to within 60 miles (96km) at closest approach. To maintain this pattern in the face of interference from the Sun, it needed a blast of engine power every few months - but its fuel tanks are now empty. After circling the planet 4,104 times, Messenger made its penultimate pass at a distance of between 300 and 600 metres - one or two times the height of the Eiffel Tower - at about 13:00 BST on Thursday. "If you could see that, it would be a real spectacle," said Jim Raines, the instrument scientist on the craft's FIPS instrument (Fast Imaging Plasma Spectrometer) and a physicist at the University of Michigan. "It would cross the horizon in just a second or two, flying low overhead at ten times the speed of a supersonic fighter." The next time it swings back close to Mercury's surface, eight hours later, it will be curtains for Messenger; the impact has been precisely modelled using maps produced by the craft's own data. Mercury has towering cliffs left by its shrinking, wrinkling history, but the predicted path has Messenger missing these. "It's a pretty flat area of the planet," said Nancy Chabot, the instrument scientist on the Mercury Dual Imaging System (MDIS), Messenger's twin cameras. "It's going to be a skimming impact." But it will leave a mark. "It will probably be an oblique crater... because the impact angle will be so shallow, so grazing to the surface. But at over 8,000 miles per hour, it's going to make a crater." The impact will happen on the side of the planet facing away from Earth. This puts the craft out of contact, and means it will probably carry more than 1,000 unseen images to its final, explosive resting place. MDIS can take hundreds of photos every day. Earlier this month, mission scientists released fresh images which superimposed years of spectrometry data about the chemistry of the planet's surface, illustrated by different colours, onto black-and-white images built up from thousands of smaller MDIS photos. The planet has been mapped and studied to a level of detail far beyond the original mission plan. Many of the results themselves have also been surprising. "A lot of people didn't give this spacecraft much of a chance of even getting to Mercury, let alone going into orbit and then gathering data for four years instead of the original scheduled one-year mission," said William McClintock from the University of Colorado Boulder, principal investigator on MASCS (the Mercury Atmospheric and Surface Composition Spectrometer, another of the seven scientific instruments on board). "In the end, most of what we considered to be gospel about Mercury turned out to be a little different than we thought." Dr Chabot remembers the tension of processing the first image ever recorded by a spacecraft orbiting Mercury, back in 2011. She had only recently taken over as the instrument scientist on MDIS. "It was exciting but for me personally it was also a bit stressful," Dr Chabot, who works at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory, told the BBC. "But then the first image came back and it looked amazing and beautiful, and we realised we were here at Mercury to stay. I take a lot of pride in that image." Despite being able to look back with pride, Dr Raines said this is still a sad day for Messenger scientists. "Pretty much all the instruments are still doing great, so that makes it a little harder," he told BBC News. But the mission was always going to be limited by the fuel needed to maintain its difficult orbit. "To be honest, I've seen this day coming for a long time and it's just one of these things that I've not been looking forward to. I'm really going to be sad to see it go." Follow Jonathan on Twitter
After more than a decade in space and four years orbiting Mercury, Nasa's Messenger mission is set to reach its explosive conclusion.

The Waterboys, Lucy Spraggan and Tide Lines are to perform at the music event which is held annually in Stornoway on Lewis. Next year's festival will be held from 19 to 22 July. This summer's acts included Julie Fowlis, King Creosote, Astrid, Runrig and Bella and the Bear. Rebecca Minnock, 35, and her son Ethan have been missing from Somerset for more than two weeks. Andrew Butt, the partner of Rebecca's mother Louise, was arrested on Wednesday and charged with contempt. During a hearing at Bristol Crown Court Judge Stephen Wildblood said: "Mr Butt has told a string of lies." The case centred around Butt's car - a black Ford Focus - which Judge Wildblood said the defendant had driven Miss Minnock and Ethan to Cheltenham in. But the court heard the defendant had "continued to tell lies" after his arrest. "The only reason is that he knows precisely where they went and that he took them to Cheltenham in his motorcar that morning [27 May]," Judge Wildblood added. Butt is due back in court on Friday for sentencing. The court also heard a black Ford Focus was seen at Asda, where Rebecca took money out of a cash machine on the same day. At a previous hearing, Louise Minnock confirmed Butt owned a black Focus and stated that neither she nor her daughter were drivers. Since their disappearance, Miss Minnock and Ethan have been seen in Cheltenham and Birmingham where the police effort is now believed to be focused. Ethan has lived with his mother since his parents separated in February 2013. On 27 May, a district judge ruled Ethan should live with father Roger Williams after finding Miss Minnock had made false allegations and obstructed contact between the father and son. A child psychiatrist recommended Ethan should live with his father and have supervised contact with his mother - a view shared by a social worker and a guardian. At the hearing earlier, Judge Wildblood stressed: "I think it is important to put right, so the public can understand, the seriousness with which the court takes in approaching the task of ensuring that both parents, if at all possible, maintain an effective relationship with the child." The budget airline will run two flights a week from Glasgow International to Lisbon, Valencia, Zadar (Croatia) and Palanga (Lithuania). The new twice-weekly route from Glasgow Prestwick will be to Barcelona Girona. There will also be five new routes from Edinburgh Airport to Barcelona Girona, Ibiza, Milan, Porto and Vigo. Ryanair said the new routes would help deliver about two million customers per year and support about 1,500 jobs at Glasgow and Prestwick airports and 1,800 jobs at Edinburgh Airport. The airline said it would also add six new summer routes next year from Glasgow International to Alicante, Brussels, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, Malaga and Sofia. It is also increasing the frequency of flights to Berlin to six times a week. From Prestwick, Ryanair will also increase the frequency of summer 2017 services to Ibiza, Palma and Tenerife. A new summer route to Warsaw will leave Edinburgh Airport three times a week, and there will also be more flights to Palma, Rome and Tenerife.

"Sardine" was trapped by volunteers in Newmarket who had seen his injuries. After treatment, also partly paid for by volunteers, he was taken to a rescue centre for care and eventual rehoming. However, centre owner Joanne Evans said Sardine "won her heart" and made himself so at home that she could not bear to be parted from him. About 15 people helped to rescue Sardine after Mick Smith, who runs a Newmarket lost and found pet page on Facebook, became aware of the cat's plight. It took them four days to lure the injured animal into a cage using tinned sardines as bait. He was treated by a vet for an abscess on a bite. His flesh had rotted down to his jawbone. At the time a veterinary nurse treating him said the cat "stank the surgery out, bless him". Instead of naming him Stinky they called him Sardine. Miss Evans took the cat to her rescue centre, Animal Craziness, in Ashley to care for him until he was well enough to be rehomed. However, she said she "fell in love" with Sardine. "He just fitted in so well here and gets on with almost all the other animals we have," Miss Evans said. She described the once very poorly cat as "like a big furry panther, now". Sardine sleeps on her bed but his presence is not welcomed by two of her other pets. "My Jack Russell terrier and big Labrador are a little scared by Sardine. When he's sitting in a doorway they won't cross his path," Miss Evans said. "But when I look at him now, and think this time last year he out there in the cold all alone, I just think how lucky I am to have him here with me now." The Glasgow-based Eritrean, who claimed asylum in 2008, secured an Olympic marathon place after coming 12th in April's London Marathon. He will be joined in the Netherlands and Rio by Scottish brothers Callum and Derek Hawkins. Dewi Griffiths, Scott Overall and Jonathan Hay make up the men's team. Sonia Samuels will run the marathon in Brazil but is skipping the European event to focus on her Olympic preparation. However, Rio-bound Ally Dixon is in the women's team, along with Tina Muir, Charlotte Purdue, Gemma Steel, Susan Partridge and Lily Partridge. Neil Black, British Athletics performance director, said: "These are two very strong teams and we firmly believe both can finish on the podium in Amsterdam. "With a firm focus towards Rio, we have liaised with athletes selected for the Olympics, and their coaches, before making a decision on selection. "As will be the case with selection for all track disciplines at the European Championships, we believe, for some athletes, running in Amsterdam will benefit their performance in Rio, whilst for others, as in Sonia's case, this competition was never part of the season plan."

A total of 325 employees lost their jobs when Tullis Russell Papermakers, based at Markinch in Fife, called in administrators last month. A further 149 positions were said to be at risk. More than 360 people attended a recruitment fair for Tullis workers on Wednesday. The fair was organised by Pace, which comprises bodies including the Scottish government, Fife Council and the UK Department of Work and Pensions. Joint administrators Blair Nimmo and Tony Friar of KPMG said that although interest had been expressed in the business, there remained a "number of challenges" to overcome. The administrators said they had re-established contact with parties including other paper manufacturers and paper merchants across the world who had earlier declined the opportunity to buy the business. They said they had also marketed it for sale to the wider investor community. A deadline has now been set for bids after they received a number of "notes of interest from parties worldwide, both for the business and assets as a going concern and for individual assets or brand names". KPMG said an information memorandum had now been issued to a small number of parties who have signed a Confidentiality Agreement. Mr Nimmo said: "We have been contacted by a number of parties that have expressed an interest in the business, which reflects the company's long history, strong reputation for high quality products and the high regard in which it was held by its customers and within the industry. "Nevertheless, there remain a number of challenges to overcome should a purchaser wish to acquire the business and assets and recommence paper manufacturing. "We have set an initial closing date for indicative offers for the business and assets for 12pm on Monday 18 May, after which we will be better able to assess the level of interest. In the meantime, we would like to thank the company's staff for their ongoing assistance." Bill Knight commissioned artists to paint the wall of his home in Northload Street, Glastonbury, to deter taggers. He was told in June to remove it after a planning inspector ruled its "scale, colours and style" was "harmful" to the area's heritage. But Mendip District Council has agreed it can stay after more then 3,500 people signed a petition. The work features some of the myths and legends the Somerset town is famous for. It was commissioned after Mr Knight got fed up with vandals painting graffiti on the side of his house. Councillor Tom Killen said a number of factors had been considered including the "significant drop in the levels of graffiti" on the wall after the mural was painted. "The petition was one of the largest the council had ever received," he said. "The location is a gateway site to Glastonbury town centre and the mural had been, and continues to be, appreciated by locals and tourists alike." The mural will be allowed to stay on the listed building for two years, after which time the situation will be reviewed. Mr Knight has been contacted for comment.

The visitors led 0-9 to 0-3 at half-time and McHugh's double, plus another goal from Patrick McBrearty, saw Donegal take total control of the game. The Mournemen had Donal O'Hare red-carded in the 65th minute for an off-the-ball incident with Eamon McGee. McGee was one of five players who received black cards during the match. Donegal duo Neil McGee and Michael Carroll were also black-carded, along with Down pair Joe Murphy and Conaill McGovern. Neil McGee was penalised for bringing down Ryan Johnston in the 18th minute, but O'Hare's resulting penalty was saved by young Donegal goalkeeper Peter Boyle. For Down and new manager Eamon Burns, it was a rude awakening to the realities of life in Division One following their promotion last season. Early long-range points from Ciaran Thompson and Michael Murphy, the latter from a free, set the tone for the match and Murphy continued to play a pivotal role with a series of frees and an expertly executed point from an acute angle. Five unanswered scores in the run-up to the break saw Rory Gallagher's side lead by six points at the interval and McHugh found the net with the deftest of touches after 40 minutes. His Kilcar clubmate McBrearty fired home the second with a clinical finish into the bottom corner two minutes later and Leo McLoone got in on the act with two points in as many minutes to leave the score 2-12 to 0-7. McHugh's second goal of the evening on 58 minutes extended his side's advantage further and O'Hare's dismissal completed a miserable evening for the hosts. Donegal, who introduced the returning Rory Kavanagh as a second-half substitute, play Cork at Ballybofey in their next fixture on Sunday 7 February, with Down away to Monaghan in another Ulster derby. Donegal manager Rory Gallagher: "When we got the first goal, the game kind of ran away from them. We would expect Cork to be stronger next week.

Fly-Tipping Action Wales (FTAW) said there were more than 36,000 incidents of illegal dumping of waste in Wales last year. The Welsh government is now consulting on bringing in new measures to tackle the crime. Every 15 minutes rubbish is fly-tipped or illegally dumped somewhere in Wales. FTAW programme manager Gary Evans said: "It equates to 100 incidents every day. That's far too many. "The Welsh taxpayer has to foot the bill to clear-up. That money could be far better spent on other services like education and health." Across the UK, it is estimated that waste crime costs £568m a year in clean-up costs and lost tax revenue. The cost to Welsh councils is approaching £2m a year. Figures obtained by BBC Radio Wales' Eye on Wales programme suggest the annual cost to the Welsh fire services of attending waste fires is around £5m. To further the fight, the Welsh government is consulting with the UK government on plans to follow Scotland and introduce fixed penalty notices. Currently cases have to be taken to court, which is expensive and time consuming for councils. Natural Resources Minister Carl Sargeant said: "We're very keen to pursue this illegal activity. "We're saying, 'if you fly-tip in Wales, we are coming looking for you' and we will actively seek to prosecute you. "We just need to ensure that the consultation comes back giving us the tools to deal with the job." Horne, 26, is in the women's track squad for Brazil and in contention to be part of the team pursuit line-up. She is one of five Welsh cyclists selected by Team GB and cannot wait to be part of the Olympic Games. "I'm completely obsessed by it," Horne told BBC Wales Sport. "Not long ago I had a folder of old bits and bobs of paper cuttings and I used to make scrapbooks of the Olympics when I was younger. "The Olympics is the pinnacle of any athletes' career and to say that I'm going to the Olympic Games has made everything worthwhile. It's a huge honour." Horne was a swimmer but had to give up at the age of 18 following shoulder surgery before switching to triathlon and later cycling while at Birmingham University. She won team pursuit bronze along with Elinor Barker, Joanna Rowsell Shand and Laura Trott at the Track Cycling World Championships in London in March. The women's team, having won six out of eight team pursuit world titles, salvaged a bronze medal following a disappointing qualifying performance. But Horne insists lessons have been learned in time for Rio. "It was a steep learning curve and emotions were high after that race," Horne added. "We were all absolutely gutted but to come back from that shows our strength of character. "We broke the British record and had two solid rides. "It's better to have learnt there than in the Olympic Games and messed up that qualifier." Horne's fellow Welsh rider Barker, 21, admits she is still not sure of her place in the final team that will ride in the pursuit. Katie Archibald has also been included in five member squad vying for a place in the four-strong team pursuit line-up. "Five of us are training for the spots and we've known for quite a long time it would be us," Barker said. "But the real selection will be on the day when four riders will be chosen to race." 15 January 2016 Last updated at 12:46 GMT Major Peake and his colleague, Tim Kopra, will try to repair a power unit on the outside of the station.

Provide a concise summary of this excerpt.
A week before the people of Salford choose their first mayor, nine of the 10 candidates filed into MediaCityUK to discuss a range of community issues broadcast live on Radio Manchester. And with the first question the floor opened to a lively debate. Answers ranged from pledges of zero to £75,000 - there is no national system yet to set the salary for directly-elected mayors. The question not only relates to manifesto pledges, it is one of the first issues the mayor will have to deal with once in office. At the lowest end of the spectrum, independent candidate Paul Massey said: "I will do it for free; I will do it for the voice of the people." The highest salary came from BNP candidate Ed O'Sullivan who expected to get £75,000 - with a pay rise if he brought enough money into the city. Liberal Democrat Norman Owen said he would look to get the same salary as he gets now as an engineer, £42,000 plus council allowance, which rounded it to about £60,000 to £70,000. More modestly, Michael Moulding of the Community Action Party committed himself to £35,000, as did Bernard Gill, for UKIP. As the salary will be decided by an independent panel which hasn't been set up yet, the figure won't be decided until the panel presents its findings to a full council meeting. Leicester council took nearly a year to set their mayor's salary. Green Party candidate Joe O'Neill said he would take half of what was offered and said "some of the figures that have been offered today are absolutely scandalous." Adding colourful variation, Michael Felse of the English Democrats said he would take it all but give 26% to charities in Salford so he could "have a confrontation with George Osborne on how much people can give to charity". Two candidates would not commit themselves to a figure: Conservative Karen Garrido said the salary had to be important enough for people to do the job but it would never be £100,000. Independent candidate Pat Ward said she would take "what you think I'm worth". Labour's candidate Ian Stewart said he wanted nothing to do with the setting of the salary for elected mayor. Liverpool, which will also be electing their mayor on 3 May, has already set up an independent advisory pay panel which will present its recommendations on 23 May. Doncaster, an early adopter of the directly-elected mayoral system, pays its mayor Peter Davies £30,000. He took a wage cut from £70,000 when elected. As Mayor of London, Boris Johnson is paid £143,911, a wage higher than Prime Minister David Cameron. Sir Peter Soulsby was appointed Leicester's mayor last year on a salary of £56,000, an independent panel later recommended this rise to £100,000. This was rejected and he is now paid £65,000 - similar to the wage of an MP. A full list of
Salford mayoral candidates were recently invited to a BBC public debate asking them, among other things, how much should a mayor get paid?

4 January 2016 Last updated at 11:57 GMT The explosion happened in the early hours of Monday at the post office in Long Ashton, near Bristol. Avon and Somerset Police said three people were arrested and are being held on suspicion of causing an explosion with intent to endanger life. "Cash was taken but it is not yet known how much," a spokesman said. "Anyone who was in the area at about 03:30 GMT is asked to call police," he added. Surveyors reported a "worrying decline" in local schools, hospitals and roads contracts due to public spending cuts. But they said Northern Ireland's building industry has seen an overall increase in workloads over the period. The survey was carried out by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and Belfast law firm, Tughans. They found that despite the overall increase in workload levels from 1 January to 31 March, Northern Ireland's construction industry was still lagging behind other UK regions. Surveyors also continued to report a construction skills shortage within the Northern Ireland workforce. RICS Northern Ireland director, Ben Collins, said that the "small uplift" in overall construction workloads had been driven by the private sector, including private house building and private commercial activity. "When it comes to public sector work, though, surveyors are reporting a worrying decline," he said. "We understand that public money is finite and becoming more scarce. But we would encourage the politicians to recognise the paramount importance of investing in infrastructure and to prioritise funding capital expenditure where possible." Michael McCord from Tughans Solicitors, said: "It continues to be the case that a sizeable amount of the work that local construction businesses are doing is in the English and Scottish markets. "What we really want to see is the local construction sector experiencing sustained growth within Northern Ireland itself as well, and infrastructure activity is a very important element of this." The Dark Blues won the race, held over 2,000m on a straight course, by four lengths in five minutes and 50 seconds. From 2015, the event will be staged on the same day and course, along the River Thames, as the men's competition, which this year takes place on 6 April. The Women's Boat Race was first staged in 1927 and has been held at Henley-on-Thames since 1977. However, women's rowing received a huge boost at London 2012 when three crews - Helen Glover and Heather Stanning, Katherine Grainger and Anna Watkins, and Sophie Hosking and Katherine Copeland - all won gold. And a cash injection from a new sponsorship deal for the Women's Boat Race meant rowers from both universities would no longer have to raise money themselves to pay for kit and training camps. It also meant the two crews could have a proper set-up with full-time coaches. Following discussions between the universities, it was then agreed to hold both races on the same day.

French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said the man, named by French media as Ayoub El-Khazzani, had links to the "radical Islamist movement". He was restrained by passengers, including three Americans, two of whom are members of the US armed forces. They have been praised by the French and American presidents. Mr Cazeneuve said on Saturday that the identity of the suspect had not been "established with certainty", but official sources later said he had been identified through fingerprints. The suspect, who is being questioned near Paris, was flagged up to French authorities by their Spanish counterparts in February 2014. He is reported to have lived in France, Spain, and Belgium and to have travelled to Syria. What we know The incident happened on a high-speed Thalys service near the northern city of Arras on Friday. When a French passenger tried to enter a toilet, he encountered the gunman and tried to overpower him. A gun was fired and a French-American passenger was injured by the bullet. The gunman was carrying a Kalashnikov rifle, an automatic pistol with ammunition clips, and a box cutter knife, Mr Cazeneuve said. One of the Americans, Spencer Stone, seized the gunman, while a second, Alek Skarlatos, grabbed his guns, according to accounts from the passengers. A friend of theirs, Anthony Sadler, and Chris Norman, a British man who lives in France, also helped restrain the attacker. Mr Norman told reporters on Saturday that he initially hid when he saw the gunman running down the aisle, before deciding that "perhaps the only chance was to act as a team". "He had a Kalashnikov - I don't know how many magazines he had. My thought was: 'I'm probably going to die anyway so, let's go'," he said. "I jumped up and I was actually the fourth person to begin working on the terrorist." With Mr Stone holding the gunman in a headlock, the passengers hit him until he fell unconscious. The gunman injured Mr Stone with a knife. Mr Stone and another man, who received cuts to his neck, were treated in hospital. "I don't know why [the gunman] could not fire, but I think it was because his gun was jammed," said Mr Norman. "We were all enormously lucky." Mr Stone and Mr Skarlatos are members of the US Air Force and the National Guard respectively. Mr Stone has now been discharged from hospital and has joined his countrymen. They were all due to spend the evening at the US embassy in Paris. US President Barack Obama has telephoned the three men to commend their "extraordinary bravery". US Secretary of Defence Ashton Carter praised the three, saying that the two servicemen had shown why "on duty and off, ours is the finest fighting force the world has ever known". The 554 passengers included French actor Jean-Hugues Anglade, the star of Betty Blue and Nikita, who was lightly wounded breaking glass to sound the alarm. In an interview with Paris Match magazine, Mr Anglade said train staff had entered a private cabin and locked it when they heard gunshots, leaving the passengers alone. "I thought it was the end, that we were going to die, that he was going to kill us all," he said. However Agnes Ogier, the boss of Thalys, denied Mr Anglade's allegations, saying train staff had "fulfilled their duties". One member of staff found himself under fire and took five or six passengers with him into the baggage car, where he sounded the alarm, she said. French President Francois Hollande telephoned Mr Obama on Saturday to thank him for the "exemplary conduct" shown by the three US citizens. British Prime Minister David Cameron also praised their "extraordinary courage". The American men and Mr Norman were awarded medals for bravery by authorities in Arras. Anti-terror investigators in Paris now have 96 hours to question the suspect. The suspect boarded the Thalys train in Brussels, and Belgian prosecutors also opened an anti-terror investigation on Saturday morning. France has been on edge since the attack on the Charlie Hebdo magazine and a Jewish supermarket in Paris in January, which left 17 people dead.
A heavily armed man who was overpowered on a train in France is a 25-year-old Moroccan known to the intelligence services, officials say.

Andrea Beacham, 30, from Goldings House, Hatfield, stole money from the Cricketers Pub in Redbourn, Hertfordshire. She also took more than £200 from the business by altering bills. Beacham received a two-year jail term, suspended for 18 months, and was told to carry out 250 hours unpaid work. She pleaded guilty to theft and three charges of false accounting. Beacham cried in the dock at St Albans Crown Court on Thursday when Judge Marie Catterson told her: "A cash loss of this magnitude risks sending the business under. "The owners have borrowed money and laid staff off. They have worked every hour God sends to keep the business afloat. "Your actions can only be described as very, very selfish, without having a thought for the impact on others." The court heard shortly after she started working at The Cricketers, on 31 October 2015, Beacham did not turn up for work. CCTV footage showed her arriving at 09:00 GMT, taking a till from the safe and emptying it. She had also altered bills at the restaurant. A confiscation hearing will take place later in relation to the theft from the pub. The court also heard Beacham had been given a community order and unpaid work in Gloucester in April 2008, after she admitted refunding money to herself from her job at the British Waterway Museum. In March 2015, she was sacked from her job as an assistant manager at the Cowper Arms in Letty Green, after voiding transactions and stealing almost £200.
A bar worker who stole more than £7,500 from a till has been told she jeopardised the future of the pub that employed her.

The party has also proposed an industry-wide levy, dubbed a "Twitter tax", to fund "preventative activity to counter internet harms". Labour said it had "pressed for tough new codes" in the past but the government had "categorically refused". The Liberal Democrats said more needed to be done "to find a real solution". The Conservatives said the levy, proposed in their election manifesto, would use the same model as that used in the gambling industry, where companies voluntarily contribute to the charity GambleAware to help pay for education, research, and treating gambling addiction. All social media and communications service providers would be given a set period to come up with plans to fund and promote efforts "to counter internet harms". If they failed to do so, the government would have the power to impose an industry-wide toll. The Conservatives say the exact details, including how long the industry will be given to comply and the size of the levy, will be consulted upon. A Labour spokesman said: "If the Tories are planning to levy a new tax on social media companies, they need to set out how it will work, who it will affect and what it will raise. "Labour has pushed for a code of practice about the responsibilities of social media companies to protect children and young people from abuse and bullying." The Conservatives have also pledged to introduce "a sanctions regime" that would give regulators "the ability to fine or prosecute those companies that fail in their legal duties, and to order the removal of content where it clearly breaches UK law". Social media platforms and internet service providers would have clearer responsibilities regarding the reporting and removal of harmful material, including bullying, inappropriate or illegal content, and would have to take down material. "It is certainly bold of the Conservatives to boast that they can protect people on the internet," Liberal Democrat home affairs spokesman Alistair Carmichael said. "Government and technology companies must do more to find a real solution to problematic content online." And Labour's digital economy spokeswoman Louise Haigh said: "The Home Office were crystal clear they did not want to legislate and that they believed the voluntary framework was sufficient. "The fact is that in government the Tories have been too afraid to stand up to the social media giants and keep the public safe from illegal and extremist content." The bid is a partnership between NewcastleGateshead Initiative, Newcastle City Council, Newcastle United Football Club and Newcastle Rugby Limited. If successful, United's St James' Park will stage the Champions Cup final and Newcastle Falcons' Kingston Park will host the Challenge Cup final. A final decision will be made in April 2017. The next stage of the bidding process sees a shortlist of candidate cities drawn up by 16 December, followed by venue visits and a selection process through to March 2017. St James' Park, with a capacity in excess of 52,000, staged international matches in the 2015 Rugby World Cup as well as playing host to rugby league's Magic Weekend for the past two seasons.

Mick Hogan, managing director of Newcastle Rugby Limited, said: "Securing the 2018 finals would be another significant boost for the development and growth of rugby in the region. "The city has two great venues in St James' Park and Kingston Park Stadium, which would ensure a fantastic weekend of club rugby. "When it comes to major events, Newcastle-upon-Tyne always delivers to the very highest levels." Lee Charnley, managing director of Newcastle United, added: "We have a strong recent history of hosting major rugby events at St James' Park. "The sell-out crowds we have welcomed pay testament to our ability to excel at the hosting of such high-profile sporting events."

It means the BBC could lose coverage of the Games in the UK from 2022, although Eurosport's parent company Discovery may lease back some of the rights. The European rights are currently split up, country by country. The deal will be effective for most of Europe from 2018, and in France and the UK from 2022. Discovery and Eurosport confirmed they will develop a new Olympic TV Channel across Europe. Media watchdog Ofcom lists the Olympics as a category A event, which must have live coverage made available to free-to-air channels. In a statement, Discovery said it was committed to broadcasting a minimum of 200 hours of the Olympic Games and 100 hours of the Olympic Winter Games on free-to-air television, during the games period. Thomas Bach, the president of the International Olympic Committee, said: "The revenue generated from this long-term partnership will be redistributed by the IOC across the Olympic Movement to support the development of sport around the world." The BBC had in previous years been awarded the rights as part of a deal between the IOC and a group of public broadcasters across Europe. If the BBC wants to broadcast the Olympics in future it will now have to negotiate with a rival broadcaster, Discovery. The BBC said the Olympic Games remain "a priority" and that it has already secured the TV, radio and online rights to the next three Games in 2016, 2018 and 2020. It will be "seeking further discussions with Discovery about the UK free-to-air rights to the 2022 and 2024 Olympic Games in due course". "More than 90% of the UK population watched the BBC's coverage of London 2012 and it remains one of the most popular free-to-air, sporting events for UK viewers," the BBC said. "It is not unprecedented for sports rights to be sold on a pan-territory basis, and the BBC has acquired other sports rights via sub-licensing deals with either agencies or broadcasters," it added. In a conference call with the BBC, Mr Bach, said: "Public broadcasters have played a significant role in spreading the Games and broadcasting the Games... (but) Eurosport has contributed a lot to this in the past. "In Great Britain, BBC has the rights to 2020. There is ample time before 2022 and 2024 to have discussions with Discovery about their cooperation. This deal at the moment is not excluding anyone, but it is showing a new broader approach to Olympic broadcasting." The first Olympics to be broadcast on the BBC came from London in 1948. Since then, it has broadcast the Games continuously since Rome 1960. The 2016 Olympics will be held in Rio de Janeiro in Brazil and the 2018 Winter Olympics will be Pyeongchang, South Korea, while 2020's event will take place in Tokyo, Japan. The host city for the 2022 Winter Olympics will be announced at the end of July.
The European television rights for the Olympic Games have been awarded to Eurosport and its parent channel in a 1.3bn euros (£922m) deal.

Bath and North East Somerset Council had shortlisted two sites close to the A4, but a "huge public outcry" followed that decision. It said it would now look at a raft of "joined up transport improvements". Council leader Tim Warren said the eastern park-and-ride had been "challenging" but said ultimately it must put the safety of road user first. He said some of the other transport measures the authority would look at included: Two preferred sites for a park-and-ride to the east of Bath were chosen from a shortlist of eight. A greenbelt site on the west side of Mill Lane at Bathampton Meadows was eventually chosen over neighbouring council-owned land because the 800-car site would be less visible and have potential for a future rail link. Mr Warren added improving transport and tackling Bath's traffic problems "remain one of our highest priorities". "In light of the issues with site access, and taking into consideration all the various factors with these two sites, it is therefore recommended that the council should not proceed with either of these sites and we should instead commit all our efforts to pursuing the other traffic and transport measures we have set out." The proposed eastern park-and-ride would have joined the city's other three at Newbridge, Lansdown and Odd Down. Police were called after reports the £180,000 supercar was being driven too fast around Newport. Traffic officers did not catch the 25-year-old driver speeding in his bright green Lamborghini Huracan - which can go 0-60mph (97km/h) in 2.5 seconds. But police said he was driving in an "anti-social manner" and confiscated the Italian supercar. The driver was given a legal warning which meant the car, which has a top speed of 202mph (325km/h), was seized by police on Wednesday night but handed back the following day. A spokeswoman for Gwent Police said: "The driver was driving in an anti-social manner - speed not recorded but was excessively speeding in a built-up area." The man was warned his car could be seized again if he is caught for a second time. 17 September 2015 Last updated at 12:58 BST You programme where you want to go and this driverless pod will take you there.

The large rodents travel around bogs, lochs and moors in order to join, or establish, new colonies. Although the findings were based on a species adapted to a "patchy" environment, the work could help biologists understand how habitat fragmentation may affect other animals. The research was presented at the British Science Festival in Aberdeen. Water voles living in the north-west of Scotland live in small family groups of five to 10 individuals separated from other small populations by kilometres. By studying the behaviour of the mammals, Prof Xavier Lambin and his colleagues from the University of Aberdeen discovered that far from remaining isolated, young members of the family groups wandered huge distances away from their "home" territory. "We were astounded," Prof Lambin told the BBC. "Those animals typically have a home range of a few hundred square meters, and we found them moving two to three kilometres, a few even moving 15 kilometres between [the site of] their birth and their first reproduction." The vast journeys are extremely hazardous for the voles, during which they are exposed to predation away from the safety of their burrows. The dispersal strategy appears to be very effective in allowing the voles to thrive in such small numbers and at such great distances from each other. Individuals arrive at a "patch", wait five or six days to see if a potential mate arrives, and then move on if no other voles appear. "They will hit the road, and again face predators and take the chance, and hopefully find another patch. They can do this for seven weeks - if they're lucky," Prof Lambin said. BBC Nature: Watch baby water voles released into the wild He told the BBC how he and his team employed a citizen science team of interested members of the public as well as members of the university to help monitor individuals and whether they were present in appropriate habitats. "For the last 13 years, we've had a team of volunteers that roam the hills for six weeks a year, students and researchers. We visit all the patches that has habitat that would be suitable... Then we use capture-marking-recapture techniques with a little e-tag, and we also take a small piece of tissue from which we can extract DNA, so we can reconstruct the dispersal behaviour," he said. The results from the work indicate the ability to travel large distances, creating links in a network of colonies, enables the mammals to persist at very low densities in the hills of north-west Scotland. The researchers also concluded that the movement of voles from one patch of habitat to another spread diseases or pathogens to the newly explored areas. But it also led to populations in danger of "crashing" being rescued by colonising individuals. "It's actually this movement of individuals moving and colonising patches that lets these populations persist for long periods of time," said doctoral student Chris Sutherland who co-presented the research. "It's a balancing act of the colonisation process when they move huge distances compensating for the fact that, because these populations are naturally small, they're more likely to go extinct," he said. Although the water voles have evolved this behaviour in a naturally fragmented habitat, the research team hope their work will allow them to understand how important movement across corridors and between patches is for the survival of other species that find themselves in an increasingly fragmented world. "Humans keep chopping up big pieces of landscape into smaller and smaller patches. And the ability of species to persist in those fragmented landscapes really requires them to be able to disperse and find each other," Prof Lambin said. Professor Lambin and Chris Sutherland appear on the special British Science Festival edition of Material World broadcast on Thursday 6 September and will be available on the iPlayer.
Scottish water voles have been found to travel enormous distances, enabling them to persist in fragmented habitats.

Richard Pearson, 56, from Sunderland, passed off 14 drawings and pictures to a gallery in Northumberland, leaving it more than £50,000 out of pocket. He admitted fraud and forgery charges at Newcastle Crown Court and was jailed for three years and seven months. Cornish was known for his paintings of industrial life in the North East. The court was told Pearson was caught out after he made a "school boy error" when he used post-decimalisation prices on a fake receipt he claimed was from the 1960s. Prosecutor Mark Giuliani said: "What was instantly and readily apparent was rather than being in pounds, shillings and pence it was in decimal pounds and pence." The telephone number he used was also too long to be real. Four of the fakes were sold on to private collectors, who the gallery in Corbridge has since had to refund. Previously Pearson pleaded guilty to nine charges of fraud, two of forgery and two of using a false instrument with intent between December 2011 and February 2014. Jailing him, Judge Edward Bindloss said the fakes were "convincing" and had caused confidence in the art market to diminish. The family of Mr Cornish were present in court and in a pre-prepared statement said they hoped the conviction and the destruction of the fakes would restore confidence within the market. Paul Currer, defending, said Pearson wanted to apologise for his behaviour and would pay back the money through a fleet of cars he gained from an inheritance. Prosecutors said they would use the Proceeds of Crime Act to recover the money he owed. Cornish, who died in August 2014, was a former miner who learned his craft at an art course run for pitmen at Spennymoor Settlement in County Durham. His works have sold for five-figure sums. A drug for treating prostate cancer that has spread was found to save lives when offered earlier, a study found. The trial looked at abiraterone as an additional treatment in patients with prostate cancer who were about to start long-term hormone therapy. Abiraterone improved survival, according to results published in the New England Journal of Medicine. Prof Nicholas James, from the University of Birmingham, who led the research, said: "These are the most powerful results I've seen from a prostate cancer trial - it's a once-in-a-career feeling. "This is one of the biggest reductions in death I've seen in any clinical trial for adult cancers." Abiraterone, also known as Zytiga, is a hormone therapy. Unlike chemotherapy which kills the cancerous cells, it stops more testosterone from reaching the prostate gland to stifle the tumour's growth. The trial involved almost 2,000 patients. Half the men were treated with hormone therapy while the other half received hormone therapy and abiraterone. Of the 1,917 men in the trial, there were 184 deaths in the combination group compared with 262 in those given hormone therapy alone. Prof James added: "Abiraterone is already used to treat some men whose disease has spread but our results show many more could benefit." Each year around 46,500 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer in the UK, and around 11,000 men die from the disease. The results of the trial were presented at the 2017 ASCO Annual Meeting in Chicago and published in the New England Journal of Medicine on Saturday. Sir Harpal Kumar, Cancer Research UK's chief executive, said: "These results could transform the treatment of prostate cancer. Abiraterone can clearly help many more prostate cancer patients than was first thought." The Institute of Cancer Research also "strongly welcomed" the new findings. Prof Johann de Bono said they showed that when used at the start of treatment, abiraterone had "clear benefits for patients". In March, patients with prostate cancer in England were told they could have early access to abiraterone. The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) previously said the treatment was not cost-effective for the NHS until cancers were more advanced. Prof Paul Workman, chief executive of the Institute of Cancer Research, said he was keen to now see abiraterone reassessed by NICE for use in patients "as early as possible".

The world's most decorated Olympic swimmer completed 100m in open ocean off South Africa in 38.1 seconds to the shark's 36.1. Discovery Channel aired the "race". But what viewers actually saw was a montage of Phelps swimming alongside a computer-generated Great White. Before Sunday's broadcast, Discovery had the 28-time Olympic medallist, who is now retired, and the shark swim the course separately. Computer-generated footage of a shark was then superimposed over the swimmer to look like they were racing alongside each other. Some social media users loved the "race" idea, but many said that they felt "robbed" by the simulation. Phelps himself tweeted that he was ready for a "rematch"... but in warmer waters. Although the US athlete represents the peak of human athletic prowess, he can only swim at a top speed of 5-6mph (8-10km/h) without a monofin, while a Great White is capable of doing at least 25mph in short bursts. But humans have long pitted themselves against dangerous animals, often ones they know are much faster. They have done this for money; to draw attention to a cause; to create a spectacle, and perhaps also out of an inflated sense of what humans are capable of. Here are four other instances when man has raced beast. Bryan Habana, one of the fastest players in international rugby, decided to take on the world's fastest land animal in 2007 as part of an event sponsored by a conservation group. Habana is quick, but not Usain Bolt quick - running the 100m in 10.4 seconds at his best (compared with Bolt's 9.58 world record). Still, the then 23-year-old, keen to raise awareness about the decline of the cheetah, fancied his chances. The cheetah was tempted with a dangling leg of lamb which it chased during the race, while Habana, who was given a significant head start, gave it all he had. The end was close but the cheetah just got over the line first. Habana asked for a re-run and was soundly beaten. Filippo Magnini, a former world champion in the 100m freestyle, took on two dolphins in a pool near Rome in 2011. Given the animals' clear advantage, the Italian only had to swim one length of the pool, while they had to swim two. But that didn't make a difference and the man nicknamed "Superpippo" was pipped at the post. He said later that he fell "a bit in love" with Leah, one of the dolphins. The black US track and field athlete won a string of victories at the 1936 Berlin Olympics in front of Adolf Hitler, who had been hoping for a games that would demonstrate the Aryan superiority he believed existed. Owens later struggled financially back home in a country where racism remained rife and his sport was not professional. To make money, he competed against racehorses in front of dazzled crowds. He is said to have had the starting gun go off close to the horse, stunning it and allowing him to take a strong lead (he also had a head start). Though this strategy worked most of the time, he didn't always win. Later, more opportunities became available to Jesse Owens and, among other roles, he served as Ambassador of Sports under President Eisenhower. NFL wide receiver Dennis Northcutt easily beat an ostrich named Thelma in 2009 for a TV show called Sport Science. But in that initial race, a fence separated the pair and it was obvious the animal wasn't giving it her best. In a second race, this time inside the ostrich's enclosure, Dennis was soundly beaten, as the ostrich leapt away and he was left chasing it through the dust.

Media playback is not supported on this device Wright lost both her legs in the 7/7 bombings in 2005, but fought back to compete in the Paralympics. Since the terror attack, the 40-year-old Londoner, who played sitting volleyball for Team GB, has had a baby, got married and learned to fly a plane. "I count myself lucky that I have done the journey," she says. The award, presented at Sports Personality of the Year in memory of the BBC presenter who died in 1999 at the age of 43 after suffering from cancer, is given for outstanding achievement in the face of adversity. Of the many stories around the Paralympics that could be described as inspirational, Wright's truly fits the bill. She lost 80% of the blood in her body, was in a coma for 10 days and had surgery over a 10-month period while learning to walk again with prosthetic legs, which she removes for volleyball. Wright was sitting just feet away from a bomber on the London Underground at Aldgate when his device detonated. "It was a normal day. I was just a little bit late and unfortunately I chose the carriage the bomb was on," she says. "It's quite a miracle I'm here as I was only three feet away from him and 52 people there that day didn't survive. "I did lose my legs. I had to learn to walk again, but opportunities have come my way that never would have if I had not been involved that day. "My attitude to life, and I think anyone who goes through anything traumatic like that, is grabbing every single opportunity. Lots of people didn't get that chance." Wright has learned to ski again, parachuted out of an aeroplane and played sport for Great Britain at a home Games. In 2010, five years to the day after the bombings, she flew out to her first sitting volleyball World Championships in the United States. Media playback is not supported on this device "I do believe in turning things around. Anyone who goes through something so dramatic, and maybe so negative, you get so many positives afterwards and this is definitely one of them," she says. She featured as the British women's sitting volleyball team made their Paralympic debut, losing all five matches but almost taking sets off Ukraine, Brazil and Japan. "To be part of one of the biggest things that has ever happened, and represent my country, was amazing," she says. "No-one should underestimate the power of sport as a rehabilitation tool. For me, it gave me my confidence back. It gave me a goal again, a dream - something I could work towards. "I've been given a rare opportunity that I never ever dreamed of when I had legs." The finding came in a confidential, preliminary report by the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA), which emerged in a court case. It said 2Day FM acted illegally by airing the phone call without consent. Lawyers for 2Day FM's owner, Southern Cross Austereo, are seeking to block the report, according to local media. The document came to light as part of their Federal Court hearing, in which they argue the ACMA does not have the power to make a criminal finding, only the courts do. Australian Federal Police are currently investigating the call. Nurse Jacintha Saldanha was found dead in December, three days after DJs Mel Greig and Michael Christian duped her into transferring a call to the Duchess of Cambridge's hospital ward. A ward nurse at King Edward VII's Hospital then gave the DJs details about the condition of the Duchess, who was being treated for severe morning sickness at the time. Christian returned to work two months after the prank call, while Greig remains off air and is suing her employer for failing to provide a safe workplace.

The body of Andrea Lewis, 51, was discovered at a property on Fairyland Road, Tonna on 30 January. Rhys Hobbs, 44, of Tonna, was due to stand trial for murder but pleaded guilty to manslaughter. Keith Thomas, 46, was found formally not guilty of murder after the prosecution offered no evidence against him at Swansea Crown Court. The hearing was told how all three had been drinking at the St Ives pub in Neath the previous evening. Ms Lewis, from Resolven, had been in a relationship with Rhys Hobbs and often stayed at the house that he rented from Keith Thomas. The court heard how Hobbs began attacking her inside the property, before dragging her outside, where she died of her injuries. He found her the following morning and took her inside before calling for an ambulance. Ms Lewis suffered a fractured skull, broken ribs and 41 separate areas of bruising. Roger Thomas QC, prosecuting, said the relationship was "at best tempestuous, at worst violent". Vincent Coughlin QC, representing Hobbs, said: "He accepts full responsibility for the violence that was inflicted on the deceased." The court heard that Hobbs had "little or no recollection of what occurred as a result of his extremely drunken state". He will be sentenced on 11 August.

"Terror unexpectedly hit the heart of London, at the beginning of a cheerful Saturday night," Spain's daily ABC said. A headline in Germany's Die Welt said terror had "undermined the self-confidence of Britons". Iran's state radio told listeners that "fear has overtaken London" and Saudi funded Al-Arabiya TV said the assailants attacked "under the cover of darkness" prompting "pure fear". Hashtag "London" has been trending on Russian Twitter since last night and the Arabic hashtags "London", "Britain" and "London Bridge" are among Twitter's top trending list in many Arab countries. The media were quick to note that the attack came only days before the 8 June elections. Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung said: "It was a bad awakening for Britons shortly before the election... Prime Minister May reacted with a tough course and a note of self-criticism." Al-Jazeera TV's correspondent said it was possible that further attacks could take place and "affect the voters' mood ahead of the general election". An article in The New York Times surmised that "as Britain prepares for national elections in less than a week, it must cope with more attacks in the most ordinary of places". Russian state-owned Channel One discussed trends in attack tactics and said the scenario "resembled the recent attacks that happened in Britain's capital and other European cities". On Israeli Army radio, Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan drew parallels with attacks in Israel that have also involved "car-rammings and stabbings". Countries around the world have issued safety warnings to their nationals in London. Some have issued emergency numbers for people to call. In reacting to the attack, some social media users feel the West is not tough enough on extremists. "London has become the capital of horror, due to the multiplicity of acts of terrorism because of the stupidity of its authorities, which give shelter and support to the top theorists of terrorism in the world," Bin Khaled (@a_1k2), a Saudi, tweeted. @Alfiadkins tweeted in Persian:" If Kabul, London, Paris and Baghdad were in China, Daesh [Islamic State] would have been eradicated long ago.

It's called "electionitis" and the main symptoms are a feeling of fatigue from and boredom of political campaigns. Next week's general election will mark the fourth time voters have gone to the polls in 13 months. So, it's hardly a surprise that this election campaign has been a low-key one, with little to capture the imagination of the public. In spite of that, we still managed to find political nerds discussing and debating at an event hosted by the political blog Slugger O'Toole in a Belfast bar on a damp weeknight. According to Alan Meban from the website, there is still an appetite among the anoraks for election chatter, but even their patience is beginning to wear thin. "There's quite a lot of people who are willing to turn up - you can get 100 people out on a wet night to talk about politics," he said. "But somehow I do wish it would slow down the number of elections because it is getting quite tiring!" People are "a little bit fatigued at electionitis", he said, So, why has this campaign been so lacklustre, especially compared with the Northern Ireland Assembly election in March? Political commentator Brendan Mulgrew describes it as "non-existent", and puts that down to a number of factors, including the suspension in campaigning last week in the wake of the Manchester bombing. "In an assembly election, every vote counts because there are five seats per constituency and the fifth seat especially is up for grabs and the turnout is quite strong," said Brendan. "But in a general election, we could probably call 12, 13, maybe even 14 of the seats and the motivation's not there to go out and vote like it was in March. "The assembly election also came off the back of [the] RHI [scandal], the sad death of Martin McGuinness and it was fought in a one-off context. "A Westminster election coming out of the blue doesn't have the same context and people aren't fired up as much." What can we expect next week in terms of a turnout then? Alan believes that the assembly result in March will trigger a push to the polls from unionist voters in tight constituencies, but a dip in voting in those areas where the result of the contest is a foregone conclusion. "There was quite a lot of talk tonight that the nationalist surge has perhaps created a grassroots unionism surge to counteract that," he said. "The fact that the [unionist/nationalist] vote count got very close last time is perhaps scaring people to some extent. "Fear in Northern Ireland politics tends to drive a turnout. "It will be very interesting to see early on Friday morning how many people have come out." It seems it's not just the voters and political pundits who have almost had their fill of pottering to the polls. Colum Eastwood has only been the leader of the SDLP for 18 months but he's already something of a veteran when it comes to taking his party into elections. This is the fourth campaign - including last year's EU referendum - that he's faced since he defeated Alasdair McDonnell in a leadership contest in November 2015. "Everybody is a bit fed up with elections and none more so than politicians and political activists," he said on BBC Radio Ulster's Talkback programme. "But it's an election nonetheless and we know that a lot of these issues - around tax, around welfare, around Brexit - are resolved at Westminster. "This will be a very key couple of years and this will be an important election." Elsewhere on the campaign trail on Friday...

Write a concise summary for the following article.
Charles Mumbere was arrested last month after a government raid on his palace in which more than 80 people died. It is not clear whether the terrorism charges relate to the recent clashes or to existing charges he faced over the murder of a police officer in March. The king denies any involvement in the violence. Extra charges of aggravated robbery and attempted murder were also laid against him during the court hearing in the eastern town of Jinja, where he was remanded in custody until 28 December. Twelve others, including royal guards and a witch-doctor, have also been charged. They have not been asked to plead. More than 100 people were arrested following the security forces' deadly raid on the king's palace last month. The government has accused the Rwenzururu kingdom in Kasese district of recruiting and training militants that are seeking secession from the rest of Uganda to create their own republic, to be called Yira. The region, which lies on the border with the Democratic Republic of Congo, has been plagued by clashes between the army and armed groups, which have claimed dozens of lives in recent months, including members of the armed forces and civilians. Before becoming king, Mr Mumbere spent many years living in the US, where he worked in a Pennsylvania nursing home. Eden, 25, started his career with the Tigers before moving on to Huddersfield Giants and Hull KR and will return to Super League for the 2017 season. "I am delighted to say we have signed Greg Eden for the next two years," coach Daryl Powell said. "His athletic ability is exceptional which is key in order to play at full-back in our team."

Media playback is not supported on this device The Briton continues his Olympic build-up in Cardiff against several athletes he will face in Rio this summer. Kenyan Geoffrey Kamworor is seeking to defend the title he won in 2014. "A world medal would be amazing," said Farah, 33. "It's going to be like a mini Olympics because you have all the guys who'll be competing in Rio." Kamworor leads a strong Kenyan contingent in Wales that is likely to provide the stiffest test to Farah this weekend. "The field is really strong. You have the Kenyan team I'm going to be competing against in Rio. It doesn't get much tougher than this," added Farah. "After a good block of training it's important you race and test yourself. In my heart I wouldn't be turning up if I didn't want to win." Farah held off Kamworor's challenge at the World Athletics Championships in Beijing last year as he successfully defended his 10,000m title. However, the British athlete believes his opponent - and his compatriot Bedan Karoki - have the pressure of being the favourites over the half-marathon distance. "It was a close race in Beijing and Geoffrey will go out there and push all the way - but that's what I need," he said. "He's the favourite along with Bedan Karoki - which is nice as there's a little bit of pressure off for a change." Kamworor, 23, is also the world cross country champion while Karoki, 25, won his last half marathon. Farah has twice won the Great North Run over the half-marathon distance and has increased his training mileage from around 100 to 120 miles a week as he looks ahead to a future away from the track. "I'd like to see how Rio goes. I really want to do the 5,000m and 10,000m double again, then come back to the World Athletics Championships in London in 2017," Farah said. "I'm not sure what I could do after that but when I finish on the track I'd like to see what I can do on the road." The figure includes spending on credit cards, bank borrowing and student loans, but excludes mortgages. It would be the largest amount in cash terms that consumers have been in debt. However, a survey conducted alongside the report suggested that most consumers are confident about paying off those debts. One reason for such confidence may be the continuing low level of interest rates, which means that borrowing is cheap. According to PwC, unsecured borrowing increased by £19.7bn last year, or 9%. It said the average household owed "close to £9,000" in 2014. The most recent report from the Bank of England put the figure at £8,000. One reason for the increase is the amount of money being borrowed by students. Nearly half of the increase - 46% - was accounted for by student loans. Borrowing on credit cards was responsible for 22% of the rise, with the rest from other sources, such as loans and overdrafts. The PwC report said that even though most people were in control of their debts, that could be tested when interest rates eventually rose. It warned that the size of debts in relation to household income could exceed its peak, which occurred in 2008, just before the financial crisis. "Consumers could begin to feel squeezed once again," said Simon Westcott, a director in PwC's financial services business. As far as secured lending is concerned, the Bank of England has previously said that a sudden rise in interest rates could leave more than 600,000 families vulnerable to a rise in mortgage rates. However, it said in December that overall household debt levels were below the long-term average. Have you been affected by the issues raised in this story?

Summarize the provided information.
Gray, who was playing in the sixth tier of English football with Hinckley United in 2012, netted his first after a defensive mix-up between John O'Shea and Papy Djilobodji. The striker rounded Vito Mannone for his second before completing his treble with a low shot from Ashley Barnes' pass. Barnes converted a penalty to make it 4-0, before a consolation goal from Jermain Defoe after good play from Adnan Januzaj. 31 mins (1-0, Gray): Centre-halves O'Shea and Djilobodji both challenged for the same ball, it hit O'Shea's shoulder and bounced backwards. The ball fell to Gray who ran through and his shot was too powerful for Mannone. 51 mins (2-0, Gray): A speculative ball was hit forward and Gray held off a challenge from Djilobodji and got to the ball before Mannone, who had sprinted out of his penalty area. Gray rounded the keeper and put it into an empty net. 53 mins (3-0, Gray): Sunderland substitute Steven Pienaar stood on the ball and that allowed Burnley to hit a ball into Barnes, who had time and space to pick a pass to Gray and he steered his shot past Mannone. 67 mins (4-0, Barnes): Barnes converted a spot-kick after Seb Larsson had bundled Scott Arfield to the floor in the penalty area. 71 mins (4-1, Defoe): Januzaj dinked in a pass to the back post that evaded the head of Ben Mee. Defoe took a touch to set himself and shot from close range past Tom Heaton. Sunderland end 2016 in the relegation zone and boss David Moyes will surely be furious with a woeful performance from his side. They have a lengthy injury list that includes Jordan Pickford, Paddy McNair, Lee Cattermole, Jan Kirchhoff and Duncan Watmore and they suffered more problems at Turf Moor. Defender Lamine Kone went off after clattering into an advertising hoarding, before striker Victor Anichebe pulled up with a hamstring injury. Kone's injury proved crucial as Sunderland were terrible defensively from that point onwards. Three of the four goals came from simple balls forward that should have been dealt with, while the fourth came after a rash challenge. To make things worse for the Black Cats, they could now lose Wahbi Khazri (Tunisia) and Didier Ndong (Gabon) to the Africa Cup of Nations in January, with Moyes unlikely to have much money to spend in the transfer window. Sunderland are in their 10th successive campaign in the top flight and only avoided relegation from the Premier League in the penultimate game of last season. Many more defensive performances like this will see them ending 2017 in the Championship. Burnley manager Sean Dyche: "This has been a good week for sure, the end of a good calendar year for us at Burnley. "I'm pleased with our calmness today, and we felt we could get the ball down more. We want to mix our football and we were productive. Andre Gray got his hat-trick today, great for both himself and the team. "We'd like to think we are a persistent team, though the Premier League is a tough division and whoever you play won't make it easy. We have to do what we can, be effective, and I think we were today. We are learning about how to deal with this league. "We don't overthink every game, but we always want to challenge. You have got to get points on the board and so far this season we have done that. As a unit, we think we can be effective, can be a real team and take this challenge on." Media playback is not supported on this device Burnley striker Andre Gray, who also scored in the 1-0 win over Middlesbrough on 26 December, added: "It's been a massive week, two big wins against the teams around us. "It's massive for me to score a hat-trick - four years ago I never thought I'd be playing in the Premier League, never mind scoring three in one game. I have had to work hard, do the right things and hope that it'll pay off. Today, obviously it has. "We are only halfway through the season though - a lot can change. We need to dig in and stay up." Sunderland manager David Moyes: "We were dire today, really, really bad. It was a poor performance, and defensively especially we were all over the place. "You have to do the old-fashioned defensive things well and we didn't. My players were well-briefed on the opposition and you just have to hope they take that into the game. "We made the same mistakes time and time again; missed headers, missed bouncing balls, the same stuff. The players have to take responsibility as well as me, and that was dire, as bad as anything I have been involved in here. I can't walk into the dressing room and say "Yeah, that was great lads." It wasn't. "We have to stick together, but today defensively we were poor. We threatened at times going forward but we couldn't defend. You can ask me questions about myself and my future, that's fine. We're in the bottom three, I know that."

The Scots have been drawn in the same pool as Six Nations rivals Ireland and World Cup hosts Japan. Two teams will come through the qualifying process to make up the section. "It's certainly the best one I've seen in my years of playing," said Lamont, who won 105 Scotland caps. "I definitely reckon we'll qualify, if not qualify top. There's not that one big team that you always think, 'oh, that's going to be a real tough one' - the New Zealands, South Africas, Australias even Englands at the moment. "All the pools will be tough, but for us it's been a good draw. "It's one of the more even pools. It's a great, great opportunity to qualify, and qualify top. It's teams we know and have beaten before. "We should be looking for at least semis. That's the standard we need to start aiming for, especially the way we've been playing recently." Gregor Townsend takes over from Vern Cotter as Scotland head coach for this summer's tour, which will take in matches against Italy, Australia and Fiji in the southern hemisphere. "If Gregor comes in and continues to build on Vern's basis and [with] the squad we've got and the depth we now have in positions, there's no reason we can't be aiming for semis and onwards," said Lamont, who worked with Townsend at Glasgow Warriors. "We've got to be aiming big. "Gregor is very meticulous in his planning. He's very concise on what he wants from the players. He demands a high level and he expects the players to conform to that. "Gregor's a good coach, he knows what he wants and he'll do well with Scotland." Scotland toured Japan last summer and won both Tests and also beat Ireland during this year's Six Nations. "They have come on massively," recently retired Lamont said of Japan. "Rugby's growing massively over there. "You look at last World Cup, they beat South Africa. After that game they went from a viewing population of 500,000 to a couple of million. "Whoever's in the pool with Japan, you'll always be the enemy. You're going to come up against the crowd, which can make a big difference on the referee. Japan are going to be really fired up. "Our record's not always the best against Ireland. They've got a lot of quality players, they know how to win. They are a tough team. For top of the group, they're probably favourites at the moment. They're the ones to beat. "We've improved massively as a nation, but we can't be thinking we've made it already and qualified. We have to fight for everything." Thomas drew the 1949 sketch of a friend who had apparently collapsed during a pub crawl through London and gave it to another, saying: "Remember me". It is part of a private collection due to go under the hammer in Cardiff on Saturday. Auctioneers Rogers Jones & Co said the drawing had attracted "worldwide interest". Ben Rogers Jones, from the firm, said: "Dylan Thomas has a huge following both in the UK and in the United States. "This simple drawing gives us a fantastic, detailed account of a bohemian night out in Soho, 65 years ago almost to the day." The drawing, which has a pre-sale estimate of £1,500 to £2,000, dates back to 4 September 1949. "At this stage of the poet's life, it is safe to say that he was often drinking... and he was fully immersed in the London bohemian-set," a spokesman for the auctioneers said. They said it was during a visit to Soho's Gargoyle Club that Thomas decided to draw a "symbolic picture" of his slumbering companion, Mably Owen, with a waiter and a staggering woman. He is then believed to have folded the pencil sketch, before handing it to Mr Owens' wife, Daphne, saying: "Remember me". The drawing is accompanied by a letter from Daphne Owen explaining how it came about. Thomas, originally from Swansea, died in 1953 in New York.

The board's London landmarks, and its Community and Chance cards, have been swapped for places and events important in Turing's life. Players can move their pieces from his birthplace in Maida Vale to Hut 8 at Bletchley Park. Search giant Google has bought 1,000 of the sets and donated them to Bletchley Park to help raise funds. The board of the special edition is based on a hand-drawn variant of Monopoly created by William Newman in 1950. William was the son of scientist Max Newman who was a key figure in Turing's life. The hand-drawn version was thought to have been lost but was rediscovered in 2011 and donated to the Bletchley Park museum soon after. "Bringing this board to life has been one of the most exciting and unique projects we've been involved with here," said Iain Standen, head of the Bletchley Park Trust. The special board has Bletchley Park, the wartime centre of the Allied code-cracking effort, taking the place of Mayfair, swaps houses and hotels for huts and blocks and has Turing's face on all the banknotes. The commemorative edition also includes a facsimile of William Newman's hand-drawn board. Google has helped with the production of the board by buying up the copies of the game. Funds raised by the sale of the game at Bletchley Park will aid the heritage site's reconstruction project.
The life of computer pioneer Alan Turing has been commemorated in a special edition of Monopoly.

The coin sold is known as a "Pattern" version, as it was presented as a prototype, but never went in to production. It is the first time that any of the Pattern coins have come up for auction. Commenting on the record price, a spokesperson for the auction house, AH Baldwin and Sons said: "No other bronze coin has ever come close." "I think the last was in the region of £15,000," he said. The coin was bought by a private collector. It is not known whether it will be kept in the UK, or taken abroad. A further seven pennies, known as currency coins, were produced in 1933 for ceremonial purposes, but none has recently come up for sale. It is thought the currency coins could be worth twice as much as the Pattern versions. The reason so few were produced was that the Royal Mint had a surplus of penny coins in 1932, and did not need any more in the following year. Most of the 1933 pennies are in private hands, although one of the Pattern versions is in the Royal Mint's museum. Others, it is thought, have been buried under buildings as part of a "time capsule". The eventual price achieved was nearly double initial estimates.
A rare 1933 penny - one of only four in existence - has sold for a world record price of £72,000 at a London auction.

Although the sitcom is partly set at California's Caltech, the fund will sponsor studies in science, technology, engineering and maths at rival UCLA. Series star Mayim Bialik earned a PhD in neuroscience from the university in 2007. The first 20 scholars will be announced on the Big Bang Theory set this autumn. "We have all been given a gift with The Big Bang Theory, a show that's not only based in the scientific community, but also enthusiastically supported by that same community - this is our opportunity to give back," said the show's creator, Chuck Lorre. "In that spirit, our Big Bang family has made a meaningful contribution, and together, we'll share in the support of these future scholars, scientists and leaders." The programme, which documents the achievements and obsessions of four science nerds and the (mostly) successful women who tolerate them, has just finished its eighth season. Prof Stephen Hawking, Nobel Prize laureate George Smoot, astronaut Buzz Aldrin, Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak and theoretical physicist Brian Greene have all made cameos on the show, along with the cast of Star Trek and other sci-fi franchises. It was nearly derailed by a pay dispute last summer, which saw principal cast members Jim Parsons, Johnny Galecki and Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting negotiate a reported fee of $1m (£650,000) per episode. UCLA said the scholarship endowment was the university's first to be created by the cast and crew of a television series. A total of $4m has been raised to date for the fund, according to scholarship partner Warner Bros TV. That includes an initial donation from the Chuck Lorre Family Foundation combined with gifts from people associated with the show, including its stars, executive producers and crew, and TV companies CBS and WBTV. After the initial intake of 20 students for the 2015-16 academic year, the scholarship will support five further students every year in perpetuity.
The cast and creators of TV comedy The Big Bang Theory have created a $4m (£2.6m) scholarship fund to support low-income science students.

Police say that the two foreign suspects - identified as Adem Karadag and Yusufu Mieraili - they have arrested are thought to be part of a group responsible for the 17 August blast, but do not appear to be the main protagonists. "Evidence has showed that Yusufu was probably not the yellow-shirt," national police spokesman Prawut Thavornsiri told reporters in Bangkok. He said that furthermore "nothing had confirmed" that Mr Karadag was the chief suspect. Both men have been charged with possessing "illegal bomb weapons", police say. Police have yet to confirm the nationalities of the two arrested men because they suspect that both used fake identity documents. Police on Saturday arrested Mr Karadag in a raid on a flat on the eastern outskirts of Bangkok. It was their first blast-related arrest and he has since been subjected to DNA tests. The samples taken from him do not match the DNA found on evidence that the bomber is believed to have left behind on the night of the attack, police say. Police say that seven other people are wanted over the crime. Earlier on Friday repairs to the shrine were unveiled - its centrepiece being a four-faced golden statue of the Hindu god Brahma. It was damaged in at least 12 places, most obviously the chin of one of the faces. The shrine is also considered sacred by Thai Buddhists, and attracts many foreign visitors. The unveiling was attended by worshippers and Thai soldiers. The repairs were carried out by the culture ministry's fine arts department. Margaret Lee flew from Tennessee to Amsterdam to meet someone she had been chatting with online. The 16-year-old was arrested by Dutch police in the city of Zwolle over the weekend on suspicion of identity theft. Police say she used her sister's passport to leave the country after hers was confiscated by her family. Ms Lee ran away from her home in Clarksville on 1 April, according to the Montgomery County Sheriffs office. She then flew to Amsterdam, via Iceland, by herself. Dutch police began searching for the girl near The Hague, based on her details from her social media accounts. Ms Lee was found by Dutch police at a train station in Zwolle, located about 75 miles (120km) east of Amsterdam. She was reunited with her mother, who flew to the Netherlands to join the search. Police have yet to reveal the identity of the person she travelled to meet. It is also unclear whether she will face any criminal charges in both the Netherlands and the US.

The 24-year-old joined the Tykes from Sheffield Wednesday in June 2014 and has made 88 league appearances. Boss Paul Heckingbottom told the club website: "I'm delighted that Adam has decided to commit his future to the club and there is no doubt that he thoroughly deserves this deal. "He has been a massive part of our recent success and he is constantly improving as a player." Carter, 20, is a product of the Cards' youth system and made his senior debut last August. "It is a difficult step up into the National League. I did find it difficult but I think I just grew into it," he told the club website. "I think next season, as I've got this past year of experience under my belt, I can now really push on." Ebbw Vale schoolboy Page and 18-year old Tyler Rees from Llanelli have been invited to the qualifying rounds at Ponds Forge in Sheffield in April. Both received wildcards to compete at last month's Welsh Open in Cardiff with Page reaching the last 32 stage. "We look forward to welcoming Jackson to Sheffield," said World Snooker's (WPBSA) chairman Jason Ferguson. "Jackson is an example of a player who has taken the opportunity presented to him with both hands already in 2017. "Having qualified through the WPBSA's development work with national governing bodies and during the Welsh Open last month he won two matches against current professionals and gained enormous exposure in the media. "Last week he became the 2017 European U-18 champion in Cyprus and he continues to battle it out in the European Championships to try and earn that golden ticket to the World Snooker Tour. "We look forward to welcoming him and the other successful qualifiers to Sheffield next month and seeing who will be able to take full advantage of the opportunity and perhaps even make it all the way to the Crucible." Coal use fell by a record 52% in 2016 on the previous year in the face of cheap gas, higher domestic carbon prices, renewables and other factors. The drop was partially offset by increased emissions from oil and gas. The results are based on analysis of government figures by the website Carbon Brief. The Department of Energy, Business and Industrial Strategy (Beis) is due to publish its own estimates on 30 March. One of the main reasons for the drop in coal use is the carbon price floor. This carbon tax doubled in 2015 to £18 per tonne of CO2. In his budget on Wednesday, the Chancellor Philip Hammond is expected to set out the future path for the tax. This could have wide-ranging implications for the planned phase out of coal and the cost of low-carbon power subsidies. Coal use has fallen by 74% since 2006 and is now 12 times below the peak of 221 millions of tonnes (Mt) burnt in 1956. While CO2 from coal fell drastically, carbon emissions from gas increased by 12.5% in 2016 as utilities switched from burning coal. CO2 from oil also went up, by 1.6%. Carbon emissions in 2016 reached 381 millions of tonnes (Mt) of CO2. With the exception of sharp dips caused by general strikes in the 1920s, this represents the lowest level since 1894, when Nicholas II became Tsar of Russia.

Ahmad Jarba said the Syrian National Coalition saw talks as a step towards "leadership transition", meaning President Bashar al-Assad's removal. The Syrian government has also said it would attend but would not negotiate a handover of power. Rebel groups involved in the fighting have said they will not take part. Heavy clashes were reported on Thursday in eastern Damascus and Golan in the south-west. Activists reported six dead after a surface-to-surface missile fell on the jihadist-controlled northern city of Raqa overnight. More than 100,000 people have died in the violence since peaceful protests against Mr Assad began in March 2011. Almost nine million others have been driven from their homes, around two-fifths of Syria's pre-war population. The Syrian National Coalition has previously set conditions for attending peace talks - including the setting up of humanitarian corridors and release of political prisoners. Mr Jarba said on Wednesday night that he would go to the conference, but reiterated that National Coalition rejected any future role for President Assad. "Our position on Geneva is clear - in our last meeting of the National Coalition we presented a comprehensive and clear vision towards attending Geneva 2. This vision was agreed upon by the majority in the coalition," he said. He said that "genuine democratic transformation" was needed, but that Mr Assad could not be part of it. "There is no way that the individual responsible for the destruction of the country [meaning Mr Assad] can be responsible for building the country," he added. Earlier the Syrian government confirmed it would attend the talks, but dismissed the opposition demand that Mr Assad should play no role in any transition. The foreign ministry said its delegation to the talks would pursue "the Syrian people's demands, first and foremost eliminating terrorism". Officials routinely refer to all opposition in these terms. The UN, US and Russia have been trying for months to get both sides to agree a political solution to the conflict. UN chief Ban Ki-moon has said he expected both sides to come "with a clear understanding" that the goal of the talks was the full implementation of the Geneva Communique, issued after a meeting of the UN-backed Action Group for Syria in the Swiss city in June 2012. He reiterated that the peace talks would seek to establish a transitional government with full executive powers - as envisaged in the Geneva Communique.
The head of Syria's main opposition group has said he will attend planned peace talks in Geneva in January aimed at ending the civil war.

Richard Johnson, 24, was convicted of killing Joshua Bradley, 19, in the fight on 8 February by a jury at Nottingham Crown Court. The court heard Mr Bradley had been trying to help a friend who was being assaulted when he was fatally injured. Johnson, of Hyson Green, was told he must serve at least 25 years before he is eligible for release. Mr Bradley was pronounced dead at the scene in Thurland Street, Nottingham. A second defendant, Zaiem Zulqurnain, 19, of Newlyn Drive, Aspley, was found not guilty of murder and also cleared of violent disorder. The jury was earlier instructed to find Muhamed Adnan, 22, of Middleton Boulevard, not guilty of murder. He had already admitted violent disorder and will be sentenced later. Mr Bradley had been a boxer since he was seven years old. He was a Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire youth champion and represented England at youth level, according to the Nottingham Post. After his mother's death in his early teens he gave up the sport but continued to help young members at Bilborough Boxing Club, the newspaper reported. Det Supt Kate Meynell, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: "This was a wholly unnecessary death of a young man in the prime of his life. "Johnson purposefully took out a knife into the city centre, and brandished it when the fight broke out in a state of bravado. "Joshua, who was an accomplished boxer, went to help a friend who was being assaulted but tragically ended up losing his life. "For Joshua's family and friends, that night changed everything. "They will never see Joshua again, they didn't get a chance to say goodbye and now have to try to go on without him." Inverewe Garden, near Poolewe in Wester Ross, has been named as UK Garden of the Year.

Mull in the Inner Hebrides was also second-place winner in the Holiday Destination of the Year category, while Skara Brae on Orkney took the runner-up spot in the heritage site category. Balephuil Bay on Tiree, also in the Inner Hebrides, was second in the best beach prize. Author Amy Liptrot's book, The Outrun, which gives a personal account of a journey from alcoholism in London "to salvation in her Orkney homeland" won second place in the Book of the Year section.

For the first time researchers showed climate to be having a similar, significant impact on bird populations in large, distant areas of the world. Their study used population-predicting models and three decades of field data, gathered by bird-watching volunteers. The findings are published in the journal Science. Led by Durham University scientists, the team developed models that related each species' habitat to long-term climate patterns. Using annual climate records - from 1980 to 2010 - these models were able to predict where a species had experienced an improvement or a decline in suitable climate. "We then had this amazing data set collected by thousands of volunteers over decades - where people have gone out and counted birds across different countries in Europe and the United States," explained lead researcher Dr Stephen Willis. "We can use that to see to what extent our predictions match what people are finding on the ground." The outlook is different for each species. Increasing temperatures in the UK, for example, allow some species to expand their range and increase their population, while the same temperature patterns have made the UK a less suitable habitat for others. But the overall trends, this study shows, are strikingly similar in the US and Europe; populations are increasing in species predicted to benefit from climate change and decreasing in those predicted to be negatively affected. "One important thing is that we're looking at the most common birds," said Dr Willis. "These birds are doing a lot of good in the countryside - eating crop pests and helping our ecosystems work. "So we need to understand how they'll respond." The research shows how the climate is gradually remapping the avian habitat across two continents. In Europe, for example, birds such as the wren have been increasing in northern areas as winters become milder, but declining in some southern countries. The American robin has declined in some southern states, but increased further north. "This is really the first time anyone's ever looked at changes in climate across two really extensive parts of the world," said Dr Willis. "So we're getting an idea that [the impacts of] climate change on wildlife are more far-reaching than individual countries." David Noble from the British Trust for Ornithology, who was also involved in the study, told BBC News that the findings highlighted the value of such extensive data sets generated by volunteers. "The similarities in results between the two continents, despite very big differences in their landscapes, geographic barriers and patterns of vegetation, are compelling evidence for the climate change effects," he added. Dr Willis agreed, saying: "This is work carried out by thousands upon thousands of volunteers; it really demonstrates the power of citizen science." The study was carried out in partnership with the RSPB and United States Geological Survey (USGS).

Ch Supt Adrian Watson, divisional commander for Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire, said the operation would continue. A trial jury was directed to find Asif Aurangzaib, from Derby, not guilty over the botched robbery of a fast food warehouse in Birmingham. Judge Philip Parker said there was "insufficient evidence" against the 25-year-old, and he was found not guilty of conspiring to rob Direct Source 3. Two others are still on trial accused of murdering Akhtar Javeed, 56. Suraj Mistry, who is accused of being one of two gunmen, and Lemar Wali, who is alleged to have been the getaway driver, deny murder, conspiracy to rob the warehouse and two counts each of possession of a pistol with intent to cause fear or violence. A third man, Tahir Zarif, of Osmaston Road in Derby, is said to have "played a central role" by the prosecution, with the Crown's barrister alleging it was he who shot Mr Javeed as he tried to flee the scene. At the start of the Birmingham Crown Court trial earlier this month, the jury heard that Zarif was believed to have fled to Pakistan after the 3 February raid in the Digbeth area of the city.

Education Secretary Nicky Morgan has written to the Electoral Commission warning of "underhand tactics". The watchdog said it did not regulate the content of campaigner websites. Vote Leave have been contacted by the BBC but have yet to comment on the row, which comes ahead of the deadline to register to vote on Tuesday. The Vote Leave web page asked users to enter their personal details, including their address, and click a "Register To Vote Now" button. By clicking the button, it suggested people would "find all the information they need" about voting and be "on the way to registration". The result, though, was a page thanking them for signing up to support the campaign itself. This later changed, with users directed to a generic page about how to register, including a link to the official www.gov.uk website. But the Britain Stronger in Europe campaign group suggested their opponents may have "manipulated" online advertising listings in an attempt to mislead voters. Ms Morgan and Labour MP Stella Creasy have written to the watchdog calling for an urgent investigation into whether this was a breach of the code of practice on data, which is overseen by the Information Commissioner. "It has come to our attention that Vote Leave appear to have paid for online advertising to ensure that their campaign website regarding registration is promoted ahead of the government website that directly enables citizens to register to vote," they wrote. "This website does not enable people to register, and therefore could easily mislead people in to thinking that they have secured their ballot paper. "By securing a ranking for this site higher than the official registration site, Vote Leave's underhand tactics could disenfranchise citizens without their knowledge who have in good faith used this site to try to register." In a statement, the Electoral Commission said it did not have the remit to investigate and said anyone who was not registered to vote should do so online by the 23.59 BST deadline on Tuesday 7 June.

The Nottingham Forest Supporters Trust (NFST) has successfully applied to register the ground as an Asset Of Community Value. Elliott Stanley, the chair of NFST, said fans and the local community can now help safeguard the club. The Reds moved to the ground, the site of a double European Cup win, in West Bridgford, in 1898. Lives updates from the East Midlands The City Ground has been part of Nottingham life for about 120 years with many watching Brian Clough's team carry out their European Cup heroics in 1979 and 1980. Mr Stanley said: "The City Ground is undoubtedly one of the most iconic grounds in the footballing world. "The ground being formally registered an Asset of Community Value is something that we set out to secure, not only because it aligns with our vision of safeguarding the future of the club but, perhaps more crucially, it ensures that fans have a voice on that future." Registering the stadium as a ACV means supporters can bid for the ground should it ever be put up for sale. The stadium belongs to the club, but the land is owned under freehold by Nottingham City Council. The authority has said it would never sell the land without the support of fans. Nicholas Randall QC, Nottingham Forest's chairman, said the club had supported the move and that it underlined its commitment "to place the club at the heart of the community". Nottingham Forest was facing a uncertain future before being sold to Greek shipping magnate Evangelos Marinakis, in May. Blackburn's Ewood Park stadium, Manchester United's Old Trafford and Charlton Athletic's The Valley have all been listed as ACVs. Assets of Community Value Source: Civic Voice

The couple, one of whom is a student at the University of Sussex, had been shopping at the New England Street supermarket in the city on Saturday. A customer complained after one of the women gave her partner a peck on the cheek. Sainsbury's later apologised and offered to donate £100 to a charity. The protest was organised by the university's students' union, which has urged the supermarket giant to review its policy on equality and diversity. About 200 people gathered outside the store before some of them turned to kiss each other, saying they wanted to "turn the negative into the positive" and highlight equality in the city. The women were asked to leave the store by a security guard, who was not directly employed by Sainsbury's. In a statement, a spokeswoman for the supermarket chain said the couple "were not behaving inappropriately and we are very sorry that they were treated in this way". She added: "Had a senior manager been made aware of the original customer complaint, they would have followed our guidelines and no action would have been taken." The Students' Union said the supermarket's response was inadequate. It said the "Big Kiss In" was open to everyone, regardless of sexuality, "to highlight that whomever you wish to kiss, it is to be celebrated".

The Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) said the government had been blowing "hot and cold" on its commitment to cut carbon emissions. That caution had made the energy sector jittery about investing, it concluded. The government said its proposed Energy Bill would provide "certainty" for investors in the electricity market. Energy Secretary Ed Davey said last month climate change goals could be met by banishing coal and gas in the 2030s. But launching the draft Energy Bill, the government said it wanted to retain flexibility on the target date. It had previously indicated it could make energy clean within two decades. IPPR research fellow Reg Plant said: "An ambitious decarbonisation policy offers a route to long-term sustainable economic growth, and productive British businesses. "But businesses need to know the government will provide consistent support for their investments. "And at the moment ministers blow hot and cold on their commitment to a green future." The IPPR said there were "mixed signals" because the government initially promised ambitious targets before seeming to waver about their effect on the economy. It also said the Treasury should ditch plans to introduce a "carbon floor price" - a green energy tax setting a minimum price for greenhouse gases. Mr Davey has said the scheme would encourage companies to develop more green technologies, but critics argue the tax would be passed on to consumers. A Department of Energy and Climate Change spokesman said: "The government is proposing to reform the electricity market and give certainty to investors with the Energy Bill and revolutionise the energy efficiency of millions of homes and business across the UK through the Green Deal. "This approach will deliver the best deal for Britain and for consumers, cutting energy waste and helping get us off the hook of relying on imported oil and gas by creating a greener, cleaner and ultimately cheaper mix of electricity sources right here in the UK." The IPPR report comes amid lobbying from environmental campaigners to cut subsidies to onshore wind farms further. They argue their spread across the UK has been a blight on the countryside. Mr Davey has already indicated the government wants to cut wind farm subsidies by about 10%. Prime Minister David Cameron has said the growth of renewable energy is vital for the British economy. He has promised to lead the "greenest government ever".

Special Report: The Technology of Business Hey you, get on to my cloud Domain shift sends cyber world dotty How to cash in with off-the-peg apps Taj Mahal comes to your living room Sochi 2014: Hi-tech Winter Games The BBC dropped in on the Lotus F1 Team in Enstone, Oxfordshire, to see how it is preparing for the 2014 race season, due to start in Melbourne, Australia, on 16 March. With a budget less than half that of the top F1 teams and other problems to grapple with, Lotus needs all the help technology can give it. It is coping with the recent loss of its team principal, Eric Boullier, to McLaren and a new boss trying to deal with last year's £140m hole in the company's finances that led to the defection of star driver Kimi Raikkonen to Ferrari. As every tenth of a second counts in F1 racing, the way technology is optimised can ultimately make tens of millions of dollars' difference to a team's annual revenue, says chief executive Matthew Carter, parachuted in by owners Genii Capital to try to stabilise the business. "We are operating on half the budget of some of the big boys, so we have to think of different ways of making that work and being competitive," he says. That means making better use of technology in every part of the business. The latest rule changes - involving a smaller turbo-charged engine with a more powerful electric battery and energy recovery system, as well as a narrower front wing and lower chassis to reduce downforce - have necessitated thousands of new drawings, parts and tests. "They're the biggest rule changes I've seen in 20 years of working in the sport," says Nick Chester, chief technical director for Lotus F1 Team. "We had to start developing this car two and a half years ago." To help improve efficiency, the team has jettisoned its piecemeal approach to software - different packages doing different jobs - and entered into a £4m, four-year contract to use Microsoft's Dynamics enterprise resource planning (ERP) software across the whole organisation, says Mr Chester. The nature of the Microsoft partnership - although not exclusive to Lotus - allows the team to tailor the software to suit its needs and gain access to the technology giant's research and development team in Redmond, Washington, he says. The ERP helps plan and manage the highly complex process by which computer-aided designs, informed by computational fluid dynamics, eventually end up as wind-tunnel-honed carbon-fibre speed machines hurtling round a track. "It helped us cope with an increase from 12,000 to 14,000 drawings that the new car required," he says. "It also enables us to run parallel design programmes and allocate resources accordingly." During a season, a car might receive 200 to 250 aerodynamic and mechanical upgrades, he says, requiring an additional 6,000 drawings, all of which need to be planned for, resourced and delivered to the tracks on schedule. Development costs have been reduced by the introduction of laser 3D printing, which can turn designs into prototype parts far more quickly and cheaply than before. Better technology also helps reduce time wasted on basic administration by automating common processes, according to IT director Michael Taylor. "If you can free up an aerodynamicist's time by just one minute a day, over the course of the year that's a significant amount of time. And if you can extend the design lifecycle, in theory, you create a better design," he says. And when a part fails, the team needs to identify exactly what caused the problem and at what stage the weakness occurred, from the moment the purchase order for the materials was placed right up to the second it broke. "We need a single source of truth," says Mr Taylor. Data is a huge part of the sport - the car's on-board computer and the many sensors that wirelessly communicate with the team will generate up to 50 gigabytes of data per race, all of which needs to be analysed immediately. While the car is zooming round the track at up to 200mph in Abu Dhabi, say, the team back in Enstone is monitoring the real-time data flow remotely using VMware's virtual desktop technology. All this commercially sensitive data is stored in two concrete bunkers at the Oxfordshire site - external cloud storage services are not trusted enough yet, although Mr Taylor does envisage such a move in the future. Top-secret files are shared securely between partners, such as engine provider Renault, using EMC's Syncplicity software. "It's like a commercial version of Dropbox," he says. "IT enables everything inside this business. And the be-all and end-all of our IT strategy is to give us a competitive edge," says Mr Taylor. In-season testing on track, in wind tunnels and simulators has been restricted by the sport's governing body, the FIA, in an attempt to cut costs and allow the smaller teams to survive. While these restrictions were "absolutely essential", according to boss Matthew Carter, it puts far more emphasis on IT to plug the gap. "The lack of testing in F1 means we have to do an awful lot of work back here, making sure there's a real good correlation between the information we get from the simulator and wind-tunnel testing and what happens on the track, so that we can continue punching above our weight," he says. "If you stop investing in technology and stand still, others overtake you very rapidly in this sport."
Formula 1 is the most technologically advanced sport on the planet, and the latest radical rule changes have imposed a whole new set of challenges on the teams.
