Can you summarize this content? | Armed with just a revolver, Sergeant Edward Cooper single-handedly stormed an enemy blockhouse during the Battle of Langemark in Belgian Flanders.
Sgt Cooper made them think they were surrounded and took 45 prisoners.
A stone has now been unveiled at the cenotaph next to Stockton Parish Church to mark a century since his heroism.
The ceremony was led by the Chaplain to the Durham Light Infantry Association, the Reverend Kenneth Crawford.
Sgt Cooper, from Stockton, was only 21 when he showed the "most conspicuous bravery and initiative", on 16 August 1917 near Ypres.
His unit, the 12th Battalion of the King's Royal Rifle Corps, was under heavy machine gun fire from a concrete blockhouse, causing a number of casualties and holding up the advance of his comrades on his left.
His Victoria Cross citation read: "Sgt Cooper, with four men, immediate rushed towards the blockhouse, though heavily fired on. About 100 yards distant he ordered his men to lie down and fire.
"Finding this did not silence the machine guns, immediately he rushed forward straight at them and fired his revolver into an opening in the blockhouse. The machine guns ceased firing and the garrison surrendered.
"By this magnificent act of courage he undoubtedly saved what might have been a serious check to the whole advance, at the same time saving a great number of lives."
Seven machine guns and 45 prisoners were captured.
Stockton mayor, councillor Maurice Perry, said: "It was a real privilege to have been present for the service to dedicate a memorial stone to honour one of the borough's most courageous men.
"It is only right that his memory is being commemorated in such a way befitting a war hero who sacrificed so much for his country."
After the war, Sgt Cooper returned to Stockton and married Iris. The couple had three sons, eight grandchildren and many great-grandchildren.
He became manager at the Co-Op in the town but the family lived in Thornaby until his retirement.
He missed only one Remembrance Day commemoration in 68 years until his death in 1985 at the age of 89.
Spieth birdied the final hole to lift the duo alongside Australian Ryan Ruffels and American Kyle Stanley.
The event changed to a team format this year with 80 pairs competing.
They play foursomes (alternate shots with the same ball) in the first and third rounds and fourballs (playing your own ball) in the other two rounds.
Stanley, whose lone PGA victory came at the 2012 Phoenix Open, and 18-year-old Ruffels reeled off four consecutive birdies to begin their round before also shooting 66.
England's Ian Poulter, who lost his PGA tour card last week, carded a three-under-par 69 with Australian Geoff Ogilvy, to sit in an eight-way-tie for 11th place.
Olympic champion Justin Rose, playing with the man he beat in Rio, Open winner Henrik Stenson of Sweden, carded an opening round of 72.
The Professional Golf Association (PGA) is trying to create renewed interest in the sport by introducing varied tournament formats.
The Classic of New Orleans is an official counting tournament for the rankings worth $7.1m (£5.5m) and has attracted six of the world's top 10 players to the TPC Louisiana course.

Last month Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby called for a "visionary debate" on the EU referendum and said there was no "correct Christian view" on it.
Archbishop Welby called on those who want to leave the EU to set out what Britain would be like after leaving in a variety of respects, including its international "attitude" and its values.
"And from those who want to stay, how would we change the European Union? How would we make it more effective if we remained in it? What's our vision?" he said.

Please summarize the given passage. | The legislation came into force in 2012 after the SNP used its then-majority to pass it, but a majority of MSPs now back a repeal of the law.
Labour MSP James Kelly has tabled a member's bill aimed at repeal, which is being studied by the justice committee.
More than 200 submissions from people and organisations were sent in.
Football fans' organisations and legal groups including the Law Society of Scotland raised concerns about the legislation in the consultation, while others spoke out against repeal.
The Offensive Behaviour at Football and Threatening Communications (Scotland) Act was voted through in 2011, without any support from opposition parties. It aims to tackle sectarian behaviour around football matches and online, but opponents argue it is unnecessary in light of existing laws and unfairly targets football fans.
In November 2016, the Conservatives, Labour, the Greens and the Lib Dems - who all campaigned that year on Holyrood manifestos pledging opposition to the Act - united to urge the government to repeal.
Ministers argue that opposition groups have not put forward viable alternatives, and insist that repealing the bill would send the wrong message about the importance of tackling sectarianism.
More than 200 submissions from individuals and organisations were received by the justice committee, of which more than three quarters were in favour of repeal.
The Law Society of Scotland said it had "commended the intent of the bill to address the serious issues" involved, but said they "continue to be concerned about aspects of the Act".
They said that offensive behaviour covered by the Act "is likely to be caught by the substantive criminal law" already in existence, and said all 287 charges brought under Section One of the legislation in 2015-16 "could have been prosecuted under pre-existing legislation". On this basis, they said the legislation "has not been fundamental to tackling sectarianism".
The submission also said that repeal would not "leave a gap in the criminal law", and said the Act may in fact "have caused some confusion with particular reference to what type of behaviour is now considered offensive and unacceptable" - something that could lead to cases in the appeal courts seeking clarification.
Supporters Direct Scotland, recognised as the lead football fans' group by the game's managing bodies in Scotland, formally agreed with the proposal to repeal the bill, citing their own surveys of supporters - the majority of which backed repeal.
Their submission said there were "sufficient provisions within criminal law to prosecute offensive behaviour related to football" without the Act, arguing that it "targets and singles out football supporters".
The Glasgow Bar Association, meanwhile, argued that the legislation was poorly written, saying the definition of offensive behaviour was "unclear and broad", which had led to difficulties in implementation for the police and lawyers.
And civil liberties organisation Liberty said the Act "poses a threat to human rights", saying the provisions set out "extend the reach of the criminal law too far into the realm of free expression without offering meaningful additional protection".
However, others wrote in support of the legislation, or at least to oppose repealing it.
Victim Support Scotland agreed that "laws should be rational and enforceable", but they said there should be no repeal of the Act "unless there is a viable alternative to support victims of threatening communication and religious prejudice".
They said repeal of Section Six in particular - the section dealing with threatening communications - would "leave an unacceptable gap in Scottish legislative protection for victims of religious prejudice".
Glasgow Caledonian University law lecturer Andrew Tickell wrote in his submission that while he retained "significant concerns" about the legislation, with a review of hate crime legislation ongoing, proposals to repeal it would be "to take a sledgehammer to a task designed for the scalpel".
The Church of Scotland said it would be "wise to await the recommendations" of the review, led by Lord Bracadale. They also voiced concern that "repealing the Act without replacement would be a symbol that our elected representatives do not think that behaving offensively or sending threatening communications is problematic".
They added: "At a time of rising levels of anti-Semitism and Islamophobia, and where sectarianism remains a reality of life in Scotland, the wider implications for repeal should be taken into account."
And the Scottish Council of Jewish Communities said that repeal "would send exactly the wrong message", calling instead for the legislation to be extended, so that it relates to more areas than just football. | Hundreds of views on whether Scotland's Offensive Behaviour at Football Act should be repealed are to be considered by MSPs. |
Give a brief overview of this passage. | About 80 firefighters are dealing with the fire in Transport Avenue in Brentford.
It started at 12:08 GMT.
BBC London Travel reports there are delays on the M4 eastbound from Heston Services to junction 2 at Brentford. The smoke can be seen from Heathrow Airport about six miles (10km) away.
Fire crews are also dealing with a large at an industrial unit in north London.
About 70 firefighters are tackling the fire in Bernard Road, Tottenham, near Seven Sisters Overground Station.
They were called at about 10:00 GMT to a fire in a range of single storey units, the largest of which measures 30m (90ft) by 10m (32ft).
London Fire Brigade said it did not know the cause of the fire but half of the ground floor and roof had been badly damaged. | A large fire has started at a recycling centre in west London, with thick smoke billowing across the M4, causing delays. |

De Lange, 26, admitted his international career is over after becoming a 'home-based' Glamorgan player.
The fast bowler made his last international appearance five years ago.
"It's the end of my international career in South Africa," said De Lange.
The ex-Proteas paceman took seven for 81 in the second innings of his Test debut against Sri Lanka in 2011.
He has not been involved with South Africa since 2012, having played two Tests and 10 limited-overs games.
"I'm done with international cricket. That's a chapter in my life I'm closing," De Lange told BBC Sport Wales.
"My goals are different and I'm eager to be part of a county team.
"I haven't been picked in the last five years. My commitment, vision and goals have changed.
"Basically if I go back, I'll play as an overseas player. I'm a local over here now, which is nice to say.
"I'm focused on Glamorgan and privileged they've given me the opportunity to play for this side."
Glamorgan had initially hoped to sign De Lange under the Kolpak ruling, which allows players from countries with associate trade agreements with the European Union not to be classed as overseas players, but he had not played enough international matches to qualify.
De Lange can play on a UK visa through his wife's British passport, but that leaves him unable to play as a "local" player in more than one country's domestic competition.
So he would be classed as an overseas player if he returned to South African domestic cricket.
De Lange revealed Glamorgan captain Jacques Rudolph was the catalyst in bringing him to Wales.
"Jacques asked me if I was interested in coming over," added De Lange.
"It's definitely a long-term commitment. It was a bit of a process, but it's nice to be here after a lot has been happening with paperwork.
"My wife has a British passport and I came over with a spousal visa, which made everything easier."
De Lange admitted finances played a part, but was not the primary reason for his arrival.
"It's definitely part of it, but mainly I'm still young," said De Lange.
"I've still got a lot of cricket in me so I've got a lot of playing time and opportunities to be out there.
"I've always wanted to come and play county cricket and now the chance has come and presented itself, I don't want to let it go by."
De Lange is in line to make his Glamorgan debut in the county championship opener away against Northamptonshire which starts on Friday, 7 April.
"If I can play Friday, the sooner the better to get out of the park and I'll be ready," said De Lange.
"I'm quite aggressive, I like to intimidate some of the batters if I can say that.
"I would like to to make the batsman jump around a bit and create something different. Some of the wickets here are slower and lower but I'll adapt."
De Lange will feature in all formats and has played T20 cricket for Kolkata Knight Riders and Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League (IPL) as well as Guyana Amazon Warriors and Barbados Tridents in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL).
He believes the new city-based domestic tournament set to start in 2020 will be beneficial for the county game.
"I think it's about time the idea came over this side of the world, especially with the IPL, Big Bash and CPL," added De Lange.
"It's a great goal for all the cricketers this side so for guys that specialise in the shorter format it's a great opportunity." | A 26-year-old man has died and two others are in hospital after a mass street brawl in south London.

Summarize the following excerpt. | Hamilton Academical's McGovern, soon to be out of contract, impressed in the 1-0 loss to Germany at Euro 2016.
"He's a very modest and humble lad, we're delighted he's been able to perform to this level on this stage," Andrew Evans told BBC Scotland.
"The phones have been a little bit busier over the last 12 hours."
McGovern will decide his future when his contract at New Douglas Park expires at the end of June.
Evans added that English Championship and Scottish Premiership clubs, as well as teams from other leagues in Europe, also have an interest.

"On a domestic, Anglo-Scottish level it doesn't necessarily change too much," said Evans. "It reinforces certain clubs' belief in Michael as a good quality goalkeeper.
"But it has opened opportunities on a European level. It has opened the door to a number of clubs in Europe that without this exposure of Euro 2016 may not have come to the fore.
"His performances in the whole tournament have been excellent. Last night was a barrage of attacks against the Northern Ireland goal and one in which he was able to showcase his ability with some magnificent saves."
Enniskillen-born McGovern started his senior career with Celtic and, after loan spells with Stranraer and St Johnstone, joined Dundee United.
However, it was not until he moved to Ross County in 2009 that he became a first-team regular. McGovern subsequently moved to Falkirk and then Hamilton.
The option of him staying at New Douglas Park has not been ruled out.
"Michael has really enjoyed his time there and he has a good relationship with the management and ownership at the club," said Evans. "So I wouldn't say that's out of consideration at all."
Hamilton chairman Les Gray is confident his club can match any offers from Scottish Premiership rivals.
"We'll be trying as hard as we can to keep him," Gray told BBC Scotland.

"If there isn't a move for Michael that is attractive for him to move away [from Scotland], then I think Hamilton Accies could be pushing the boat out as far as we can to match what anyone in Scotland could offer.
"We have a great relationship with Michael and we'll be the first people he speaks to if he decides to move on because he's an honourable guy.
"I've watched all of Michael's games and I was delighted for him. His performance was fantastic - everyone was talking about him and rightly so.
"It's tinged with a wee bit of disappointment that he'll probably get his big move on the back of it, but that's what Hamilton Accies are all about - it's a platform for players to do well and progress into the next stage." | Northern Ireland goalkeeper Michael McGovern's agent says Premier League clubs in England have expressed interest in the 31-year-old. |

In an email to Papa Massata Diack, a former IAAF marketing consultant, before the 2013 World Championships in Moscow, Davies wrote about the need to discuss "Russian skeletons in the cupboard" with the anti-doping team.
The Englishman said to the son of Lamine Diack - the former president of athletics' ruling body - that "we need to be smart" about releasing names.
In a statement released on Tuesday, Davies said: "I have decided to step aside until such time as the Ethics Board is able to review the matter properly and decide if I am responsible for any breach of the IAAF Code of Ethics.
"What has become apparent is that I have become the story."
Davies denied any wrongdoing and explained he had shown emails sent to Papa Massata Diack in 2013 and statements to the IAAF Ethics Board.
The email which had been obtained by the BBC contains a "very secret" five-point plan and was sent on 19 July, 22 days before the start of the 2013 World Athletics Championships.

Later this month the committee will hold an evidence session.
It will hear from businesses and the public sector likely to be affected by last month's vote to leave the EU.
European and External Relations Committee convener Joan McAlpine said: "Sixty-two per cent of voters in Scotland voted to remain in the EU.
"For that reason alone, it is important to understand what the possible options are to safeguard Scotland's place in Europe.
"Our meetings in Brussels will seek to open channels with key European decision makers to discuss how Scotland's interests can be represented as discussions go forward."
She added: "Our session later this month provides us with an opportunity to hear from key sectors, including higher education, finance and industry.
"We will raise the questions and concerns of those sectors in our meetings with the Scottish and UK governments."
The evidence session will be held on 28 July, with witnesses expected to include members of the Scotch Whisky Association and Virgin Money.

Summarize this article briefly. | This is the third defection by a North Korean soldier via the DMZ in the last three years.
But how do you get over one the world's most heavily guarded strips of land without being spotted?
The North Korean soldier, who has not been officially identified, approached a South Korean guard post to surrender himself at around 19:50 (10:50 GMT) on Tuesday.
"We are holding him to investigate the motive and the process of his defection," the defence ministry said in a statement.
There was no exchange of fire during the incident, according to the South's Office of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS).
It said the soldier crossed the military demarcation line (MDL) in the middle sector of the DMZ.
The last time a North Korean soldier defected via the DMZ was in September 2016 and before that, in June 2015.
In 2012 two soldiers from the North made it through the dense security net and handed themselves over.
Yes. The DMZ is a strip of land 250km (155 miles) long and 4km (2.5 miles) wide that runs across the Korean Peninsula, heavily mined and fortified with barbed wire, rows of surveillance cameras and electric fencing.
It is also closely guarded by tens of thousands of troops on both sides, making it almost impossible to walk across.
Swathes of bare land are littered with large rocks and anti-personnel landmines.
If the North Korean military spot movements across the area, it is likely that they will open fire.
The border and its fortifications have been in place since the Korean War ended in an armistice in 1953. North and South Korea remain technically at war as the fighting did not end with a peace treaty.
Since he took power in 2011, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un is believed to have ordered tightening border control between the two sides and with China, including by laying more landmines.
In recent months, North Korea has also flown drones over the border, mainly for reconnaissance purposes in the wake of South Korea's deployment of the US anti-missile defence system, known as the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD).
On average, around 1,000 people from the North flee to the South each year but only a handful picked this highly dangerous escape route across the military demarcation line (MDL) during the last decade.
Successful defection cases prove that it can be done. However nobody knows the number of unsuccessful attempts made by desperate defectors-to-be.
If spotted and arrested by the North Korean military, those trying to cross the DMZ would certainly be taken to a detention centre to be interrogated. They could be tried and sentenced to lengthy terms in labour camps.
One of the two North Korean defectors in 2012 had to kill his platoon commanders before fleeing.
But the crossing is sanctioned by both sides, not only the North.
In July 2012, South Korean officials arrested an activist, Ro Su-hui, after he walked back across the border from visiting the North to promote reunification.
The first South Korean unification activist to cross the border was Lim Su-kyung, who visited North Korea in 1989 and was jailed after returning home.
Defectors usually approach South Korean border guard posts to express their intention to defect. But there are also telephones on the South Korean side so those who have fled from the North can call seeking help.
Most North Korean defectors choose to flee using easier routes than over the DMZ.
Seoul says more than 30,000 North Koreans have defected to the South since the end of the Korean War, the majority via China, which has the longest border with the North.
Some defectors travel on to countries in Southeast Asia and elsewhere in the hope of resettling in South Korea or a third country.
After reaching the South, most North Korean defectors are first held at an interrogation facility to screen for potential spies and then put through a state resettlement programme.
They can get help from the government and there are also non-profit and non-governmental organisations that seek to make the transition easier for them. However this is a process that often proves not only difficult but also traumatic.
Some escapees find that escaping North Korea is just the start of their journey. They then have to try to cope with the brutality of the regime, and the years of physical and psychological hardship they faced. | A North Korean soldier defected to the South by walking across the heavily protected Demilitarised Zone (DMZ) separating the two sides. |
Provide a brief summary of this section. | Mohamed Fahmy, a Canadian citizen, filed a lawsuit at a court in Canada last week seeking 100m Canadian dollars ($83m; £53m) in damages, Joanna Gislason said in Cairo.
Mr Fahmy and two other journalists were jailed last year for spreading false news to help a terrorist group.
But their convictions were overturned on appeal and a retrial was ordered.
The journalists strenuously deny collaborating with the banned Muslim Brotherhood after the overthrow of President Mohammed Morsi by the military in 2013. They say they were jailed simply for reporting the news.
Ms Gislason, a Vancouver-based member of Mr Fahmy's legal team, said she had filed a lawsuit at a court in British Columbia on 5 May.
The lawsuit asked the court to declare Al-Jazeera negligent in its conduct towards its English channel's Cairo bureau chief, and sought punitive and remedial damages for its role in his conviction and subsequent imprisonment, she was cited as saying by the Reuters news agency.
After his release on bail in February, Mr Fahmy accused Al-Jazeera of "epic negligence".
"It is an infringement on freedom of speech to silence three innocent, recognised journalists," he told the Associated Press. "Yet a very important aspect of this case is Qatar abusing its Al-Jazeera Arabic platform in waging a media war against Egypt."
The network has denied allegations by the Egyptian authorities that its Arabic channel and local affiliate, Mubasher Misr, served as mouthpieces for Mr Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood, which were both backed by Qatar.
In the AP interview, Mr Fahmy also accused senior managers at Al-Jazeera of failing to provide the English channel's staff with enough security, to explain to Egyptian officials that it was different from the Arabic channels, and to provide the required press passes or equipment permits.
Al-Jazeera has stressed that "nobody takes safety more seriously", and said that lacking accreditation is an administrative matter that should never have landed the journalists in criminal court.
Prosecutors are expected to begin their closing arguments in Mr Fahmy's trial on 1 June.
His two co-defendants are Baher Mohamed, an Egyptian producer, and Australian correspondent Peter Greste, who was deported to his home country in February.
Mr Fahmy gave up his Egyptian citizenship to also qualify for deportation earlier this year, but only received a temporary Canadian passport at the end of April.
The first trial of the journalists, at which they were sentenced to between seven and 10 years in prison, was widely condemned internationally and Egypt's Court of Cassation ordered a retrial after ruling in January that the original court had been "hasty in pronouncing its verdict". | An Al-Jazeera journalist on trial in Egypt is suing the Qatar-based network for negligence, his lawyer says. |
Provide a brief summary for the information below. | The blaze at the Love Lei shop in John Street broke out in the ground floor of the building at about 17:00 GMT.
A 48-year-old women was taken to Sunderland Royal Hospital suffering from the effects of smoke inhalation.

Give a brief summary of the provided passage. | They are accused of killing hundreds of Bosnian men and boys in a single day at a warehouse near Srebrenica.
It is the first time a Serbian court has charged anyone over the massacre of 8,000 people by Bosnian Serb forces.
The authorities in Bosnia and an international court in the Hague have carried out all previous prosecutions.
The men charged on Thursday belonged to a special Bosnian-Serb police unit that was operating in the eastern village of Kravica when the killings took place just over 20 years ago.
They herded the mainly Muslim victims into a warehouse where they were killed with machine guns and grenades in an assault that lasted all night, the prosecutor's statement said.
Those charged included the unit's commander, Nedeljko Milidragovic, also known as Nedjo the Butcher, who was accused of giving the order for the killings and saying that "nobody should get out alive".
Mr Milidragovic is already facing genocide charges in Bosnia but has been able to live freely in Serbia because of the lack of an extradition treaty, says the BBC's Guy De Launey in Belgrade.
But this changed in March when he and the seven other suspects were arrested as a result of co-operation between the war crimes court in Belgrade and its counterpart in Sarajevo, our correspondent adds.
Prosecutor Vladimir Vukcevic said the charges were a "message that there will be no impunity for war crimes and that the victims will not be forgotten".

Can you provide an overview of this section? | Paul Coleman from the Weekend Wanderers Detecting Club discovered more than 5,000 coins buried inside a lead bucket two feet under a field near Aylesbury.
The hoard contains specimens dating back to the 11th Century - the late Anglo Saxon, early Norman period.
The coins will now be examined by the British Museum.
Mr Coleman, from Southampton, was taking part in a dig in the Padbury area on 21 December when he found the 5,251 coins depicting the heads of kings Ethelred the Unready and Canute.
A spokesman for the national club said those on the dig had "agreed this was the most exciting day of their detecting lives".
"Without a doubt this is the best find ever made in the Weekend Wanderers Detecting Club's 25-year history," he said.
Peter Welch, who was at the dig, said Mr Coleman had seen some fragments of lead, picked off the top one and saw the "layers of coins".
"He didn't touch them, he knew it was important," he said.
Mr Welch, who was immediately notified, said he was "shellshocked" when he realised "it was real".
"There was general silence and a sharp intake of breath of the people watching," he said.
"This is something you dream of witnessing, let along digging up.
"They looked almost uncirculated, like they were straight from a mint."
The old Buckingham mint would have been within a day's walking distance so a possible link with that will be explored, he said.
The coins have been taken to the British Museum and a coroner must now rule if they are "treasure" under the Treasure Act.
A museum could then buy them with the proceeds being split between the landowner and the finder.
The largest UK hoard of Anglo Saxon treasure was found in a field near Lichfield in Staffordshire in July 2009, by metal detector enthusiast Terry Herbert.
The 7th Century hoard of 1,600 items including sword pommels, helmet parts and processional crosses was valued at £3.285m.

What is the brief summary of the provided content? | Bony has scored more Premier League goals in 2014 than any other player, finding the net 18 times for the Swans.
The 25-year-old has scored six times so far this season, but Monk says the Welsh side do not have to sell the Ivorian.
"It would take an astronomical fee for Bony to go anywhere," said Monk.
"We are not a selling club, we don't need to sell.
"We are very much committed with our players and they are committed to us and that's how we move on."
Bony scored 25 goals in his first season after signing for a club-record £12m from Dutch side Vitesse Arnhem.
He scored twice for the Ivory Coast at the 2014 World Cup finals and was the subject of transfer speculation during the close season.
Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham were all reported to be interested in Bony, but Monk insisted the striker was not for sale.
In November, Bony signed a one-year extension to his contract with Swansea, a deal which could keep him at the Liberty Stadium until 2018.
Monk, whose side lie eighth in the Premier League, says Bony's goalscoring record in 2014 is well deserved.
"It shows that the work that we are doing with him is paying off," said Monk.
"He works very hard on his finishing and his fitness, so all credit to him and long may it continue."
Bony will be away at the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations finals in January and February.
Monk says Swansea, who host Queens Park Rangers on Tuesday in the Premier League, are looking to add to their options up front.
"With Wilfried being away for, I think it's a six or seven-game period, we'll obviously be looking to bring in cover in that position," said Monk.
In October Bony said his likely involvement in the Africa Cup of Nations would put clubs off bidding for him.
People can take firearms and ammunition into their local police station anonymously for two weeks, until 24 November.
In particular, the force said it was looking to stop antique guns falling into the hands of gangs.
Det Ch Supt Dean Haydon said gun crime in the capital in 2013-14 was at its lowest since 2008.
"[But] we are not complacent; our primary aim is keeping Londoners safe and we recognise the considerable and devastating impact of gun crime on those affected by it.
"The surrender provides an opportunity to significantly reduce the number of firearms in circulation on the streets of London."
The Met is concerned about gangs exploiting a loophole in the law surrounding old firearms.
Rules for buying working antique guns were tightened in July, preventing convicts from buying or owning one and soon dealers will be required to keep computerised records for at least 20 years.
Mr Haydon said: "Make no mistake, these are live weapons which can be used to hurt or injure someone.
"We have welcomed the tightening of laws around antique firearms which now means that someone who has served or received a criminal sentence can no longer possess an antique gun."

Give a concise summary of the following information. | Seasiders striker Mark Cullen got the ball rolling when he turned Brad Potts' deflected angled shot from outside the box into the far corner out of the reach of diving keeper Luke McCormick.
Three minutes later Potts made it 2-0 when he swept home a Colin Daniel cross as the Tangerines pressed home their advantage.
Argyle's misery was compounded in the 63rd minute as Jordan Flores was first to a loose ball in the penalty area and hammered home from 15 yards.
It could have been worse for jaded Plymouth as Yann Songo'o was forced to clear Nathan Delfouneso's 61st-minute cross-cum-shot off the goal-line under pressure.
Plymouth's opportunities were limited to an eighth-minute Matty Kennedy shot, which curled just outside the post and long-range efforts which rarely troubled Blackpool keeper Dean Lyness.
Blackpool's win lifts them to 10th in the table, four points from the play-off places.
Argyle remain second, six points ahead of third-placed south coast rivals Portsmouth.

Summarize the passage below. | Neil Urwin who suffers from obstructive sleep apnoea, "should not have been on the road" when he struck Andy Charlton in Northumberland on 9 August 2014.
The experienced cyclist, 43, from North Shields, suffered "catastrophic brain injuries" and died in hospital.
Newcastle Crown Court heard Mr Urwin's condition was interrupting his sleep.
The 56-year-old fork lift truck driver, from East Acres, Barrasford, sought advice from his GP months before the collision due to his night-time breathing from his sleep apnoea waking him up.
A specialist at the sleep clinic at Hexham General Hospital on 8 August, the day before the crash, told him he should not drive, the court heard.
The jury heard Mr Urwin was driving his Ford Fiesta on a straight section of the A6079 near Chollerford at 50-55mph when he hit the back of Mr Charlton's bike, sending him onto the bonnet, hitting the windscreen and over the back of the car.
Richard Bennett, prosecuting, said: "He should not have been on the road at all... the defendant was dangerously close for no good reason."
The section of the road gave the driver a 327m unrestricted view before the point of impact, and there were no skid marks on the road or signs of emergency braking before the crash, the court heard.
Mr Urwin told police he saw Mr Charlton two to three car lengths ahead of him. He could not explain why he had not spotted him before that moment, the court heard.
Mr Urwin has admitted causing death by careless driving but denies a charge of causing death by dangerous driving.

Around 5.9m tuned in to watch Benedict Cumberbatch in The Final Problem, down from the 8.1m who watched the first episode on New Year's Day.
However, consolidated figures from those who recorded the show and watched it later has bumped the figure to 9.5m.
The BBC says it is investigating how the episode was leaked online before it was broadcast on TV.
The last instalment of the fourth series was screened on BBC One on Sunday evening hours after a Russian language version emerged online.
'Full investigation'
It featured a brief continuity announcement linking it to Russia's Channel One, which owns the rights to show Sherlock in Russia.
A spokesman said: "BBC Worldwide takes breaches or our stringent content security protocols very seriously and we have initiated a full investigation into how this leak occurred."
The Russian television channel claims it was the victim of hacking by "an unauthorised external third party".
Channel One issued a statement saying they have been cooperating with BBC Worldwide's investigation.
"We are doing everything in our power to determine the source of the breach. Initial investigations suggest our content system was compromised by an unauthorised external third party.
"Channel One Russia will share the results of our investigation with the media as soon as it has concluded."
They also apologised "for any inconvenience this leak has caused".
The series was the fourth outing for Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's famous detective, played by Cumberbatch, and starring Martin Freeman as Dr John Watson.
Sherlock's nemesis Moriarty, played by Andrew Scott, made his return as part of a flashback sequence which saw him team up with Sherlock's secret sister, Eurus, before he died.
Eurus, played by Sian Brooke, and Moriarty enticed the detective, Dr Watson and Sherlock's brother Mycroft into a series of games.
Writer Steven Moffat has fuelled speculation that The Final Problem could be the last ever Sherlock.
He said: "We're not planning it to be (the final), but it might be. We could end it there. We couldn't have ended it on any of the previous series because they always ended in walloping great cliff-hangers, usually by Andrew."
The episode, which also featured a cameo appearance by singer Paul Weller, received mixed reviews from the critics.
Michael Hogan wrote in the Daily Telegraph "if this was the last-ever episode, which it surely won't be, it worked well as a sign-off".
"Last night's episode showcased all the elements that have made this modern-day reinvention such a hit - as well as those that have proved divisive."
He gave it five stars and called it "an exhilarating thrill-ride".
But Christopher Stevens in The Daily Mail gave it no stars and said that the episode was "an abject, flailing, noxious mess", "shockingly bad" and "self-indulgent rubbish".
"If you've woken up this morning with the angry feeling that you were robbed of an evening's entertainment, I share your sense of betrayal. Sherlock was, quite simply, the most nonsensical, verbose piece of television I've ever sat through," he wrote.
More than 11 million viewers watched the episode broadcast on New Year's Day once consolidated figures were taken into account, making it the biggest audience of the festive period.
The ratings for The Final Problem are likely to rise again when the on-demand audience is taken into account. The full consolidated ratings figures will be published next week.

The midfielder, who joined Manchester City in the summer on loan from New York City, played his final England game as captain in the 0-0 draw against Costa Rica at the World Cup in June.
The former Chelsea man, 36, was capped 106 times in a career dating back to October 1999 and follows Steven Gerrard into international retirement.
"It has been a very tough decision for me to make," Lampard said.
"That is why I have given it so much thought since the World Cup.
"I have always been exceptionally proud and honoured to represent my country and have to say looking back I have enjoyed every minute of wearing the England shirt."
Former captain Gerrard announced his retirement in July.
The new England captain is expected to be announced by Roy Hodgson at an England press conference on Thursday.
Lampard was released by Chelsea at the end of last season.
He says his decision to move to America, and the MLS, is a key factor in his decision to end his international career.
Lampard added: "Due to my club career now going in a different direction, it is of utmost importance for me to consider my family first and also to concentrate on how I can perform consistently to the best of my abilities over my next few years in club football.
"It is now the time to move forward and I feel very confident that with Roy Hodgson in charge, the young players that we have coming through, and the changes that are being made throughout the development of the youth system in this country, that we will have success in the future and a team that this country deserves."
Lampard played in five major tournaments and scored 29 goals and joins Sir Bobby Charlton as the sixth most-capped player in England history.
The midfielder, who began his career at West Ham, left Chelsea at the end of last season after 648 appearances and 211 goals for the Stamford Bridge club.
Hodgson paid tribute to the midfielder and said: "Frank Lampard has been a superb representative of the English game, both as a player on the pitch and an ambassador off it.
"To reach in excess of 100 international caps is something very few professionals achieve and he is in exalted company.
"He has served the national team quite brilliantly during his 15-year international career.
"It is with regret that I accept and understand the decision he's made."
Fletcher's first Grand National success came when he steered Red Alligator to victory in 1968, a year after finishing third at Aintree on the same horse.
In 1973, he won the famous race on Red Rum, repeating the feat in 1974.
Red Rum became the most successful horse to run in the National, winning for a third time with Tommy Stack in 1977, the year Fletcher retired.
Fletcher also won the Scottish National in 1974, and finished as runner-up to Josh Gifford in the jockeys' title race.
Former champion jockey Peter Scudamore said Fletcher was an "unsung hero", without whom "National Hunt racing wouldn't be where it is today".
He added: "To win the Grand National three times is an incredible achievement. It's just a shame that after he finished in racing you didn't hear a lot about him."
Police said flammable liquid was poured through the letterbox of a house in Camelia Court in the Top of the Hill area on Monday evening and set alight.

The seven-year-old's owner Rich Ricci said the switch was based on the form of the Willie Mullins-trained horse.
"I know we talked about whether he would go for the Gold Cup, that's been our intention all year," Ricci told Channel 4.
"But it's a very difficult race and if he's only 90% then we don't want to ruin the horse."
He added: "We feel the Ryanair is the best alternative. It's not ideal but it's still a great race, it's a Grade One." | Frank Lampard has announced his retirement from international football.

Sir David's career spanned journalism, comedy writing and daytime television presenting, including The Frost Report.
Internationally, he will be remembered for his revealing interviews with former US President Richard Nixon.
BBC News website readers are sending their memories.
I was at Wellingborough Grammar School when David Frost joined it and although he was two years ahead of me our paths crossed in the school plays.
He was Banquo and I was - it was an all-boys school - Lady Macbeth. He brought tinned haggis for the banquet scene.
We also starred in an Agatha Christie play together called Alibi. There was a rule in the school that if a student was going for Oxford entry that year they were not allowed to be in the school play too. David was the first to break this rule.
He also clambered through the window of the make-up room because he was late to one rehearsal. He was unforgettable.
And I won the school's Public Reading Prize every year except the two I was up against him!
Although he was two years older than me he sat in the corner of our Latin class because he was behind with Latin.
It was all very friendly between us, not too competitive.
I have known Sir David for the past six years.
He helped me with a cancer charity I set up and introduced me to the Prince of Wales to support us - nothing was too much trouble.
We were working on charity projects that would have raised millions.
We were going to compile a book commemorating 250 of his greatest interviews, and he was going to tell the stories behind each of them.
There were also plans for an official portrait of him with some of his favourite interviewees.
He was a true gentleman, and this news has struck me like a thunderbolt.
He was my inspiration in so many ways.
He changed the way people could be interviewed and created an entirely new way of broadcasting.
He challenged politicians and kept them honest. What he did was phenomenal.
He was the loveliest and generous person you could wish to meet, and he made you feel special.
Sir David changed my life the day I met him. It will never be the same again.
I met David Frost in Richmond. I told him he was marvellous on his shows.
David shook my hand and thanked me, I said he was better looking in real life.
Even though we had never met before he said: "So do you sir!" It made us laugh so much.
I felt I knew him for years and have never forgotten that moment.
David Frost will be greatly missed.
The overriding memory is simply what a genuinely nice man he was. He made no 'starry' demands.
I worked as a production manager on Through The Keyhole and not only was Sir David a true professional, he was always polite and courteous to everyone.
He was never difficult or temperamental as so many presenters are.
I'll never forget that in the bar after filming he made a point of acknowledging and thanking every single member of the crew.
It didn't matter what their role was, or how 'important' they were, he treated everyone with equal amounts of respect.

It said there would be no job losses or cuts in salary and the changes would make staff more visible.
The RMT said passenger numbers had "increased dramatically" and conductors were "the eyes and ears preventing a major tragedy on the platforms and carriages".
Mr Cox said the union had offered to discuss changes to the role "that would retain the operational and safety commitment from the conductors, but it fell on deaf ears".

Buckden hit the headlines after announcing he would run 100 marathons in 100 weeks to raise awareness of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and money for Help for Heroes.
During the challenge he announced he had cancer but would continue running.
However, medical records revealed he had never been diagnosed with the disease.
Leeds Crown Court heard Buckden, who took part in the Olympic torch relay in the run up to the 2012 London Olympic Games, was a military clerk and had never experienced frontline duty.
Among those he defrauded, Richard McCann - whose mother, Wilma, was killed by the Yorkshire Ripper - gave Buckden a free place on a speaking course.
He was also given free therapy sessions, a publicity film, and received £2,000 for a holiday and around £1,500 to set up a social enterprise.
Prosecutor Craig Hassell said "people were, naturally, moved by his story and moved to try to help him".
Ex-serviceman Phil Lee, who was also conned, said Buckden's actions were damaging to genuine veterans.
"Lots of guys who I served with, who are genuine veterans, are deeply offended by these characters who proclaim to have served in many parts of the world or worked with special forces when it's fairly clear they were nowhere near," he said.
"It brings the reputation of veterans down and it's something we can genuinely do without."

The home side capitalised on Irish mistakes and scored three tries in Friday's 22-9 victory in Cardiff.
"I really admired the way the team clawed their way back but we made a couple of errors and those things accumulate," said Schmidt.
"We undid ourselves effectively and set ourselves up to be scored against."
Ireland conceded 10 points while Johnny Sexton was in the sin-bin at the start of the second half.
Schmidt said his team "got stung" but believes they will respond with a good performance in next week's Six Nations finale against England at the Aviva Stadium.
"Sometimes these things spin on very little margins," he said.
"Next week you could convert two or three things and you win those games. We've got to make sure we roll our sleeves up and make sure that happens because there is still a lot to play for.
"We can still finish in the top three."
Wales' championship hopes were extinguished after defeats by England and Scotland and man of the match Rhys Webb was happy the home side silenced their critics with George North scoring twice and Jamie Roberts adding a late third.
"Everyone was writing us off week in, week out, but we didn't become a bad team overnight," said scrum-half Webb.
"We felt we performed well in the last three games but we played for the full 80 minutes and put in one hell of a shift against a very good Irish side."

"We are bitterly disappointed. Wales are a quality side but we made a lot of mistakes," Best said.
"Barring at 6-5, we never really got in front or dominated the way we'd have liked and had a few chances in the 22 that we didn't convert.

Neither side were potent offensively in a largely dull contest with chances and attempts on goal very rare.
Substitute Abiola Dauda almost notched a late winner as Hearts began to press.
But, as the angle narrowed, Inverness Caledonian Thistle goalkeeper Owain Fon Williams managed to stop his flick towards the far corner.
Danny Williams had a late strike well saved and Josh Meekings and Liam Polworth came close for Caley Thistle with shots narrowly over the bar, but neither side really did enough to merit victory.
Hearts' motivation was to give themselves a realistic chance of catching Aberdeen.
To do that, a win seemed vital, but there was little sign of it arriving, although this point guarantees them a Europa League qualifying spot for next season.
Caley Thistle could have moved into seventh place and ended any real concern of being in the relegation play-off position.
The first real moment of interest was when Miguel Pallardo was caught heavily by Ross Draper after the Inverness midfielder had taken a heavy touch.
Referee Don Robertson waved play on, but Hearts head coach Robbie Neilson was infuriated on the touchline.
The midfielder soldiered on but was eventually replaced with Callum Paterson, who had returned from injury to take his place on the bench.
It was lacking any invention or excitement but livened up when Jamie Walker went down under Carl Tremarco's challenge.
Referee Don Robertson booked the Hearts man for diving, again to the fury of Neilson.
Caley Thistle's Liam Polworth almost created an opening with a great first touch, but he went too close to the by-line and no-one broke into the box to get on the end of his chip across goal.
Hearts' Juwon Oshaniwa had a powerful drive blocked before Caley Thistle's Josh Meekings and Polworth sent drives flying narrowly over.
However, the threat was minimal at best overall and the second half followed a similar pattern.
Dauda had a great chance on the edge of box but blazed high over when composure may have paid off.
The striker then got a clear sight of goal in the inside left channel, but the onrushing Fon Williams did well to narrow the angle and block when a goal looked likely.
Iain Vigurs tried to add to his recent goal spree with a driven ball across the six-yard box, but Neil Alexander comfortably held on before he did so again from a Danny Williams volley as the match ended in stalemate. | Hearts secured European football next season with a point but missed the chance to narrow the gap to second-placed Aberdeen to six points. |
Can you write a short summary of this section? | In her latest report, Noelle Buick said that those from socially disadvantaged backgrounds were particularly affected.
She also expressed concern over how children are taught, pointing out that about one fifth of lessons were "less than good".
However, she acknowledged that a number of areas of education had improved since her last report, in 2014.
The Education and Training Inspectorate (ETI) observed more than 11,000 lessons and training sessions in Northern Ireland over the past two years.
While the majority of early years, primary and post-primary schools were doing well, a significant number of children were "accessing education that is not good enough", she said.
She said that about eight out of 10 primaries and seven out of 10 post-primaries were providing "high quality education".
However, that meant that "just over 78,000 children may not be getting a good enough education".
It cited reasons, including "a variation in standards across individual subjects, low teacher expectations and uninspiring teaching".
While she said most schools had good management, she was critical of the leadership in some grammar schools, saying it was "less than good" in a quarter of them.
That compared to poor leadership in only one in 10 non-grammar schools.
Her report also said it was "unacceptable that boys continue to under-perform" in exams, compared to girls.
In 2014-15, four out of 10 boys in non-grammars got at least five GCSEs at grades A*-C, including Maths and English.
That compared to just over half of girls in non-grammars.
Ms Buick blames the above trend partly on schools having fears "over the position of the school in league tables published by the media [rather than] the best interests of the pupils".
She concluded that, while progress has been made in many areas, improvement will only come with more joint working between government departments and between schools and parents.
An army spokesman said the militants were killed as they tried to seize military barracks in the village of Monguno. The attack was repelled.
Weapons and ammunition were also seized from the militants. The spokesman made no mention of military casualties.
Boko Haram has been blamed for a series of deadly attacks in northern Nigeria in recent years.
The group has not commented on the latest attack in Monguno, about 200km (124 miles) north of the regional capital Maiduguri.
In a separate development, a video emerged purportedly showing Boko Haram's leader, Abubakar Shekau, who denied claims that his group was taking part in any peace talks with the government.
This comes after reports that a senior Boko Haram commander declared ceasefire earlier this year.
Boko Haram says its members are fighting to create an Islamic state in Nigeria's predominantly Muslim north.
The group has been blamed for the deaths of some 1,400 people in central and northern Nigeria since 2010.
Last month, a video emerged featuring a gunman claiming to be from Boko Haram, who said the group had abducted seven members of a French members, including four children.
The militant said the Westerners had been seized in Cameroon. He demanded an immediate release of prisoners in Nigeria and Cameroon.

The Russian Athletics Federation is barred from international competition because of allegations of state-sponsored doping and cover-ups.
Clean athletes must pass extra doping checks and meet strict criteria for the IAAF to allow them to take part at this summer's Games.
But some athletes have now appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
Confirming the appeal, Russia's sports minister Vitaly Mutko did not name the 67 athletes.
However, 2004 and 2008 Olympic pole vault champion Yelena Isinbayeva may be on the list because she had already announced plans to challenge the ruling.
The IAAF set out the "exceptional eligibility" criteria for athletes that includes having their clean doping record verified by credible agencies - ruling out their own authorities.
Because the vast majority of Russian athletes train at home, the IAAF has already suggested "very few" will be deemed eligible.
The ban has been described as "legally indefensible" by the president of the Russian Olympic Committee, Alexander Zhukov.
The IAAF insists any Russian athletes cleared to compete in Rio must do so on a "neutral" basis and not under the Russian flag, as International Olympic Committee president Thomas Bach had suggested. | Johanna Konta saved six match points but lost 6-3 7-5 to Madison Brengle in the second round of the Linz Open.

Give a concise summary of the passage below. | A large counter-demonstration of more than 5,000 people was also held. No major incidents were reported.
Dresden is the birthplace of a movement called "Patriotic Europeans Against the Islamisation of the West" (Pegida), which staged a big rally a week ago.
Chancellor Angela Merkel warned Germans not to be exploited by extremists.
"There's freedom of assembly in Germany, but there's no place for incitement and lies about people who come to us from other countries,'' Mrs Merkel said in Berlin.
"Everyone [who attends] needs to be careful that they are not taken advantage of by the people who organise such events."
In Monday's march, protesters chanted Wir sind das Volk (we are the people) - a rallying cry used in the city in the weeks before the fall of the Berlin Wall 25 years ago.
One elderly man shouted: "I'm a pensioner. I only get a small pension but I have to pay for all these people (asylum seekers). No-one asked me!"
A woman who travelled 80km (50 miles) for the demonstration told the BBC: "I am not right wing, I'm not a Nazi. I am just worried for my country, for my granddaughter."
Earlier, Justice Minister Heiko Maas called Pegida's protests "a disgrace". But the Eurosceptic party Alternativ fuer Deutschland (AfD) is sympathetic.
"Most of their demands are legitimate," said Bernd Lucke, leader of AfD, which has campaigned for a tougher policy on immigration, as well as rejection of the euro.
In the western city of Cologne, about 15,000 people attended a demonstration on Sunday to promote tolerance and open-mindedness, under the motto: "You are Cologne - no Nazis here."
At the scene: Jenny Hill, BBC News, Dresden
Clutching German flags, candles and banners, thousands of people joined a demonstration ostensibly against the so-called Islamisation of Germany.
"No sharia law in Europe!" proclaimed one banner.
But it rapidly became clear that most here are protesting against high levels of immigration and asylum seekers.
A few years ago such scenes would have been inconceivable in this country. Many in Germany are ashamed and horrified - not just by the numbers at this demonstration but by support for right-wing groups elsewhere.
What has startled politicians, though, is that many in the crowds at Dresden are not extremists or neo-Nazis. As conservative politician Wolfgang Bosbach puts it, these are concerned mothers and pensioners.
The sheer numbers at recent demonstrations are forcing a public discussion around immigration. It's a debate with which many feel deeply uncomfortable. But it's a debate which many also say can no longer be ignored.
Immigration has become a hot topic in Germany this year, amid a surge in the numbers of asylum seekers, fuelled by the wars in Syria and Iraq. Germany takes in more asylum seekers than any other EU country.
Germany expects 200,000 asylum claims for 2014, up from 127,000 in 2013.
German media report that Pegida grew out of a Facebook group launched by Lutz Bachmann, 41, a chef-turned-graphic designer. He insists that he is not racist. He has admitted to past criminal convictions, including for drug-dealing. He says he spent two years in prison.
The AfD leader in Dresden, Frauke Petry, said Pegida "is protesting against inadequate legislation on asylum rights - they are also demanding that German law be applied against law-breakers, and they are opposing religious extremism".
The centre-left Social Democrats (SPD) - in the ruling coalition with Mrs Merkel's Christian Democrats - called Pegida's organisers "Nazis in pinstripes".
Police sources, quoted by the Spiegel online news website, said hundreds of Pegida activists in Dresden were members of two hooligan groups regarded as far-right.
Minister Maas said Pegida must be "unmasked", and he called for a "broad counter-movement embracing civil society and all political parties". | About 15,000 people have taken part in a march against "Islamisation of the West" in the east German city of Dresden. |

Stanford, 27, the 2013 world champion, won in 59 minutes 49 seconds, seven seconds in front of Stimpson with Bermuda's Flora Duffy coming third.
Jonathan Brownlee, who needed medical help after coming third in the previous event in Australia earlier this month, came second in the men's race.
Spain's Fernando Alarza won in 54:12, five seconds ahead of Briton Brownlee.
Both events consisted of a 750m swim, 20km cycle and 5km run, with Britain's Vicky Holland finishing sixth in the women's competition.
Duffy is now the overall points leader with Stimpson second. Helen Jenkins, who did not race in Cape Town, was third and Stanford eighth.
Olympic champion Alistair Brownlee was absent because of illness and his brother Jonathan revealed he had contemplated withdrawing from the race as well.
He missed the medal ceremony after stage two on Australia's Gold Coast because he was receiving medical treatment for heat stroke, but was able to compete again in South Africa.
"For the last two weeks I've felt terrible," Jonathan Brownlee told BBC Sport. "Since the Gold Coast I was not sure I would start.
"It's not a victory but from where I was two weeks ago it's a big improvement. I knew I wouldn't be able to run a fast 5km."
Brownlee's silver medal takes him up to third in the rankings, behind Spanish duo Mario Mola and Alarza, who is now second overall. Fellow Briton Adam Bowden finished 16th.
This was the third of nine World Series events and the next one will be held in Yokohama, Japan on 14 and 15 May.
The landowner wants to convert Milner Field Farm, Bingley, from agricultural use to outdoor scientific research.
Natalie Bennett said the plans would destroy a "successful" small business, but the landowner said the plan would create valuable high-tech jobs.
The land was once owned by the Victorian industrialist Sir Titus Salt.
David Downs, the current tenant, said: "We are the last dairy farm in Bingley now and we have been overwhelmed by the support we've got.
"It is not just about us it is the wider picture - this is the last piece of green space in the area."
The farm was once the parkland setting for the now demolished Victorian mansion of Milnerfield built by Sir Titus's son.

Ms Bennett, said: "It is part of a whole much broader issue of protecting the green belt, protecting the green spaces that are the lungs of so many communities.
"Also this is a successful small business, one that is producing food for the local area, and we need to protect our dairy farms."
In a statement, the landowner, Kingsbridge Directors Pension Scheme, said the planning application would not affect the "green belt" status of the land.
"The change of use of the fields from agriculture to outdoor scientific research (expressly not involving the erection of any additional buildings on those fields) maintains exactly the shapes, topography, trees, and views of the current fields."

Summarize the passage below. | Germany's federal statistics office Destatis, said the annual rate of inflation fell to 0.2% in December from 0.6% a month earlier.
That was its lowest level since October 2009.
It comes two days before eurozone inflation figures for December, which some analysts believe will show the currency bloc falling into deflation.
Inflation in the 18-nation currency bloc in November stood at 0.3% according to the European Union's statistics agency, Eurostat.
It has been below the Bank's target of 2%, or just below, since the start of 2013.
A number of other eurozone countries, including Spain and Italy, have already fallen into deflation.
Using the European Central Bank's (ECB) preferred statistical calculations - the Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) - German inflation was even lower at 0.1% in December.
The latest figures will increase pressure on the ECB to begin buying government debt.
After the ECB's December meeting left interest rates unchanged at 0.05%, the bank's president, Mario Draghi, said it had "stepped up" its preparations to act if needed, and help prop up inflation in the eurozone.
While low inflation leads to lower prices and can be good news for consumers, it can also lead to falling economic activity, job losses and recession.
Consumers and businesses tend to postpone making purchases or investments in the belief that prices may fall further.
This can lead prices even lower to the point where businesses are forced to lay off staff or even close altogether.
In the summer the ECB cut interest rates to a new all-time low and began an asset purchase programme to inject cash into the economy to help combat deflation.
But big falls in the price of oil, which has fallen more than 50% in the past six months, has had a greater impact on prices, continuing to push them lower.
Jennifer McKeown at Capital Economics said that the fall in German inflation was largely due to lower oil prices, and that the broader eurozone figure was likely to be negative for the first time since October 2009.
She added: "Such a development would surely make the pressure for the ECB to implement quantitative easing at its January meeting irresistible."
But concerns remain over how the ECB will structure its bond buying programme and whether Greek bonds will be included - given the uncertainty over which political party will win the snap election called for three days after the next ECB meeting.
The far-left Syriza party, which has vowed to reverse the austerity measures that were a condition for Greek bailout packages totalling €240bn (£187bn), holds a narrow lead in opinion polls. | Inflation in Germany fell to its lowest level in more than five years in December, official figures have shown. |

The independent MP had been suspended from the Labour Party a month before the rape allegation emerged, when he admitted sending inappropriate text messages to a teenage girl.
The 49-year-old voluntarily attended a police station by appointment when he was interviewed over the rape claim.
He said in a statement: "I am grateful for the decision made by the CPS and I am relieved that the investigation has now come to an end.
"Even though I maintained my innocence throughout, this has been an immensely stressful period for me and my family.
"I now expect the Labour Party to conclude their investigation into these matters and lift my suspension as soon as possible."
In a statement, the CPS said: "Following receipt of a file from Lancashire Police... the evidence was considered by a specialist prosecutor in accordance with the code for crown prosecutors.
"It has been decided that there is insufficient evidence to provide a realistic prospect of conviction.
"The complainant has been informed and we have written to her to fully explain our decision."
Lancashire Police said it "entirely respected" the decision of the CPS, which it had "worked closely with" throughout the investigation.

Summarize the content of the document below. | Dominic Pemberton alleges he was left for "a good hour" before being taken to hospital after the attack by the Greater Manchester Police dog-in-training, outside a Lancashire hotel.
The 23-year-old was held on suspicion of going equipped to steal before being de-arrested and taken for treatment.
GMP said an inquiry had begun after a dog "unexpectedly detained" a man.
Mr Pemberton, whose family has complained to the force, remains in hospital and has undergone two operations since the attack in the car park at the Best Western Park Hall Hotel in Charnock Richard, last Friday.
GMP said the dog had been taking part in a planned training exercise at a secure site at the old Camelot Theme Park in Chorley.
Mr Pemberton, from Chorley, said he had parked his car and was going to the hotel to renew his gym membership when the dog attacked him.
He said: "I had all these injuries and all [the police] were doing was throwing these accusations at me. They weren't concerned about my welfare.
"They accused me of trespassing - which I wasn't - and they just didn't treat me well. They didn't treat me like a human being.
"I was on the floor for a good hour with my injuries waiting for an ambulance."
Ch Insp Mark Dexter of GMP's Specialist Operations branch said: "During the exercise, which involved searching an open area within the site, one of the police dogs unexpectedly detained a man next to the perimeter fence just outside the site."
He said the dog handler brought the animal under control and carried out inquiries at the scene.
"I know the images of the man's injuries appear quite distressing and will understandably cause some concern but I would like to assure everyone that we are investigating this matter and will be looking to speak with the injured man as a matter of urgency to better understand what happened," Ch Insp Dexter added.
Mr Pemberton's father Jim Pemberton, said: "First of all, we want to see Dominic recovering and we also want to make sure the police officers that treated Dominic in such a way are held to account."

Sutton resigned on Wednesday amid claims he used derogatory words to describe Para-cyclists. An investigation has already been launched to look into that case, as well as rider Jess Varnish's accusations that Sutton made sexist comments and told her to "go and have a baby".
Sutton "rejects the specific claims" but said the allegations against him had "become a distraction" to British athletes before this summer's Rio Olympics.
The investigations into Sutton's behaviour will remain separate from the joint review, although "lessons learnt by British Cycling from this separate investigation should be incorporated", the statement added.
A third inquiry was ordered on Thursday amid separate claims that official British Cycling kit was available to buy online. British Cycling denied any equipment provided by UK Sport had been given away or sold on for profit but said other unwanted kit from commercial partners is sold or given away.
In a statement, it was confirmed the joint review "must include, but is not limited to, all forms of discrimination and bullying".
"We treat these allegations very seriously," Howden added. "Over the last 20 years, British Cycling has established itself as one of the UK's leading sports and we are proud of what we have achieved as a governing body.
"Whatever the outcome of this review, I'm sure that there will be valuable lessons to learn."
UK Sport chief Liz Nicholl added: "The allegations made by current and former athletes about British Cycling's World Class Programme over the past week have been deeply troubling to UK Sport, and any long-term cultural issues within the programme must therefore be fully investigated."
Nicholl also praised British Cycling for "quickly recognising the severity of these allegations and establishing this joint review".
The housebuilder said the developments would "underpin" more than 6,000 existing jobs and support more than 200 local suppliers and contractors.
New developments to be launched early in 2017 include Allan Park in Aberdeen and Weirs Wynd in Renfrewshire.
The news follows a strong year for Barratt Developments, which includes Barratt Homes and David Wilson Homes.

Developments included Westerwood Gardens in Dalkeith, Westburn Gardens in Aberdeen and Lauder Gardens in Strathaven.

"We're seeing strong interest across the property spectrum, ranging from first time buyers interested in our starter homes, to older homeowners looking to down size.
"We'll continue to build homes which meet these varied demands.

What is a brief summary of the information below? | Following a meeting with Theresa May, he said he hoped this would happen "as soon as possible".
Mrs May said both countries already enjoy a strong and growing trading relationship worth over £3bn last year.
International Trade Secretary Liam Fox will be visiting New Zealand in the coming months, she said.
Mrs May said her colleague would begin a bilateral dialogue between the two nations with the ultimate aim of striking a trade deal.
The small Oceanic country of less than five million people is believed to be seen in government circles as one of the best prospects for an early trade deal once Britain quits the EU.
Britain is the second largest foreign investor in New Zealand and its fifth largest bilateral trading partner.
It is also one of the global "five eyes" partners which share their security intelligence with the UK, along with the US, Canada and Australia.
Speaking at a press conference, Mr English said: "We're ready to negotiate a high quality free trade agreement with the UK when it's in a position to do so.
"We already have a strong and diversified trading relationship with the UK and a free trade agreement will build on that...
"We would hope that we could negotiate as soon as possible after the exit is completed. If the UK want to demonstrate that they can negotiate a high quality trade agreement, then New Zealand is the ideal partner for that."
Mrs May said New Zealand is important to the UK because of its historic ties, its shared values and belief in free trade.
"As two island nations we know that trade is essential to the prosperity of our countries and it's natural that we share a firm, deep-rooted belief in the power of free trade and open markets to drive economic progress and the importance of ensuring the benefits of growth are shared widely and fairly," she said.
"While the UK remains in the EU we will work together to support an EU-New Zealand trade deal and we will also look to the future and how we can expand our trade and investment partnership...
"In the longer term we agree on the potential for a bold, new UK-New Zealand free trade agreement and I look forward to starting early discussions on this in due course."
Ashraf Rossli, 20, had been in the UK for just a month when he was attacked on 8 August in Barking.
As he lay injured, John Kafunda, 22, of Ilford, and Reece Donovan, 24, of Romford, stole items from his bag.
Both were found guilty of robbery and violent disorder at Wood Green Crown Court.
Donovan was also found guilty of theft and burglary.
The judge told the men they should expect lengthy custodial sentences when they are sentenced on 13 March.
Footage of the incident, which was recorded on a mobile phone and posted on YouTube, caused widespread anger.
A portable Sony PlayStation games console and 10 games were taken, valued at £500, Mr Rossli told the court.
"I knew they were stealing from me but I could do nothing," he said.
"I was sat on the pavement with blood pouring from my mouth.
"I remember being approached by a male who asked if I was OK. I remember being pulled to my feet, then I felt someone again tugging at my rucksack.
"I was not in a position to defend myself and was still suffering from the effects of being hit. Once they had taken what they wanted they left."
The accountancy student from Kuala Lumpur was on his way to a friend's house when his bicycle was stolen and he was punched, breaking his jaw in two places.

Summarize the content given in the passage. | Miller Hendry said use of the Games symbol and all official branding associated with the event was regulated by law.
Some words, phrases and mottoes are also covered - including generic terms such as 2014, Gold, Silver and Bronze.
The law firm said companies should make themselves aware of the restrictions.
Alan Matthew, a partner with Miller Hendry, which has no connection to the Games, said: "From 23 July until 3 August, we expect to see many businesses and organisations attempting to take advantage of the incredible hype surrounding the Commonwealth Games by running Games-related promotions, advertising campaigns and events.
"But, before they do, they need to make sure they are fully aware of what is, and what is not, permitted to ensure they are not exposing themselves to serious commercial risk.
"With the exception of official sponsors, businesses and organisations certainly cannot use any of the official branding on any advertising or promotional material or on any of their products, but they also can't use any key terms - many of which are broad and fairly general.
"It is also unlawful to falsely represent any association or affiliation with the Commonwealth Games.
"This poses a significant commercial risk to small businesses wishing to run Commonwealth Games-themed promotions during the events and the organising committee have already confirmed they intend to enforce their rights to protect their big-name sponsors.
"Scottish businesses who may have 'chanced' it during the 2012 Olympics will find the policing of the Commonwealth Games branding right on their doorstep this year."
However, Mr Matthew said the Commonwealth Games' regulations were not as clearly defined as those for the Olympics, "creating the potential for confusion".
"An example of this is where the Olympics made a very clear provision for small businesses, like pubs, bars, lounges and hotels who were screening the events live on TV as an 'event'," he said.
"For the Olympics, they had clear guidelines and official posters which could be downloaded to promote the events.
"For the Commonwealth Games, there is no provision for this type of activity, which largely implies that anyone writing "See the Commonwealth Games Live Here" on a poster and popping it outside their local may be getting themselves into potentially murky legal waters."
Mr Matthew said businesses and organisations were entitled to show support and enthusiasm for the Games "so long as this is done in a way which does not associate promotion of the business or organisation with the Games".
"For example, businesses can display flags or national colours to show support for home or visiting nations, or hold an office party to celebrate the Games," he pointed out.
A Glasgow 2014 spokeswoman said the event was a major opportunity for Scotland and Scottish business "to showcase itself to the world".
"Since the Glasgow Commonwealth Games (Trading and Advertising) (Scotland) Regulations 2013 came into force last year, we have been working with businesses locally in and around our venues to make sure they can get the most out of the Games, be clear on what the regulations will mean for them and how they can be part this fantastic event," she added.
"Glasgow 2014, in conjunction with legal advisers Harper Macleod LLP, have held a series of events and seminars letting business organisations know how they can prepare for the Games and maximise their engagement without infringing legislation or regulations.
"It will be a special time and we want people to enjoy the Glasgow 2014 experience as much as possible."

The line has been run by Greater Anglia since 2012 and the company renewed the franchise in August.
It says the deal will result in a £1.4bn investment over nine years, with new trains and average journey times reduced by 10%.
The rail union RMT said Britain's rail network was being sold off like it was a "dodgy car boot sale".
Mick Cash, general secretary of the RMT, said the deal, which follows the sale of the c2c franchise to Ternitalia last week, was "making a mockery" of the Department for Transport's (DfT) franchising process.
"The checks and balances for both passengers and the taxpayer, which the DfT claims are enshrined in its multi-million pound franchising programme, are clearly lacking when the winning bidder can simply walk away, share out its responsibilities and choose its replacement whenever it sees fit," he said.
"They are flogging off Britain's transport assets like Derek Trotter at some dodgy car boot sale."

Summarize the following content briefly. | This is because of better education, "but also because they have good incomes and have lost the economic incentive to marry", the post on "Sina Liaoning" declared on 17 September.
Many users agree, and have set out why they no longer believe in marriage.
The post led tens of thousands of social media users to the #ChinesePeopleUnwillingToGetMarried hashtag to express a view.
While some say they would still like to get married one day, many users think the institution is not as relevant as it once was.
"Gan Zhaoji" says she has other aspirations. "If I was admitted to a graduate school then I would be pursuing my dreams, but marriage is not a necessity. But how do I say that I don't want to get married, but do want a child?"
"LostCici" agrees, saying she doesn't want to succumb to social pressures. "I don't want to get married because others tell me to get married; I don't want to have a baby because others tell me to have a baby."
A male user, "Yang Tingting", says "the cost of marriage nowadays is too high; people would rather live a different life."
Many agree that there is a stigma attached to not getting wed; either from partners or parents.
"Lin Maomao" says: "I think it is quite a strange phenomenon: some men do not want to hear a woman say she does not want to get married."
"Zhao Qingji" says: "If there were no social factors, I would not want to get married. My feeling is that it is not the be-all-and-end-all."
An ageing population and the now-scrapped one-child policy have led to a huge age and gender gap in Chinese society, meaning that many men are simply unable to find a partner.
And the poorest often lose out, given that when a couple marries, it has been tradition for the husband to buy a home for his bride. Seventy per cent of women see having an apartment "as a prerequisite for men to ask for marriage", a 2012 study found.
There are also changing attitudes among young women, especially those wanting to pursue higher education and rise through the ranks in business, rather than be seen as financially dependent on a partner.
Many have also defied their parents' expectations, and have sought out a partner solely for love.
Divorce rates in China are also higher than ever before. China Daily says the divorce rate peaked at 6 per cent in July, with 3.84 million couples divorcing within a year.
The "Sina Liaoning" account posted an online poll in which Weibo users were asked if they did still want to marry, why that might be.
Some 40% of the 20,000 users who took part said they would marry for love. The rest pointed to external factors. Some 7% said it was because their "families pressed it on them", and 6% said they were "afraid of being alone".
Others said they would get married to prove that they "weren't weird or different". Â

Please summarize the document below. | The Care Quality Commission (CQC) found that care at Gloucestershire Care Services NHS Trust was "good" but it judged safety in the urgent care service "to be inadequate".
Inspectors said people were waiting too long to be assessed at minor injuries units and there were safety concerns.
The trust said it had taken on board the CQC's findings.
The trust runs hospitals at Cirencester, Stroud General and Tewkesbury Community Hospital, Minor Injuries and Illness Units (MIIU), dental clinics and community services.
The inspection, carried out in June, July and August, found that patients were being seen by "unregistered practitioners".
Sir Mike Richards, the CQC's chief inspector of hospitals, said community teams were "overstretched" because there were not enough experienced nurses and it was concerned about safety in the urgent care service.
"We were not assured that people were adequately protected from the risk of harm, and we were not convinced that this had been addressed adequately yet by the trust board," he said.
"While there are many good services, we have also been very clear about those areas for improvement, which I expect the trust to address as a priority."
Dr Marion Andrews-Evans, from the NHS Gloucestershire Clinical Commissioning Group, said the trust was working to ensure patients "receive the right care, in the right place at the right time".
"We know that the trust has taken immediate action to improve arrangements for initial triage of patients within Community Minor Injury and Illness Units," she said.
"We also know that they are working hard to recruit and train additional emergency nurse practitioners to support increased use of MIIU services." | An NHS trust that runs seven Gloucestershire hospitals has been rated as requiring improvement. |

BBC Wales Sport looks back at the previous meetings between the two countries in the Republic's fair city.
Wales and Ireland had first met in an international in February 1882 at the Racecourse Ground in Wrexham, with the home side securing and emphatic 7-1 win.
Following the partition of Ireland in 1920 and the creation of the Irish Free State two years later, a Dublin-based organisation calling itself the Football Association of the Irish Free State split from the Belfast-based IFA in 1921 and began organising its own league and national football team.
Fifa renamed the team from Ireland to Republic of Ireland in 1953 and seven years later they hosted Wales in a friendly at Dublin's Dalymount Park, home of Bohemian FC.
Wingers Cliff Jones and Terry Medwin, who would be part of Tottenham Hotspur's League and FA Cup double winning side later that season, were the architects of Wales' win.
Jones scored twice and Phil Woosnam, who later became Commissioner of the North American Soccer League, netted the winner while Fionan Fagan got the Republic's goals including a penalty.
Tony Grealish gave the home side the lead in the first senior international to be played at Tolka Park but Wales replied through goals from Paul Price and debutant Terry Boyle to lead at the interval.
Captain Terry Yorath, who later managed Wales, sealed the victory three minutes from time, scoring his second and what would be his final international goal.
Jack Charlton's appointment as Republic of Ireland manager heralded the start of an unprecedented era for the national side which included qualifying for the 1988 European Championships and the 1990 and 1994 World Cup finals.
But Charlton's first game in charge, which saw John Aldridge and Ray Houghton win first caps, ended in a friendly defeat against Wales at Lansdowne Road in March 1986.
Mike England's side, having missed out on qualifying for the 1986 World Cup in Mexico, secured victory courtesy of a first half headed goal by Liverpool's Juventus bound striker Ian Rush from David Phillips' corner.
Wales' win came at a cost however as goalkeeper Neville Southall suffered a serious ankle injury after falling awkwardly.
Charlton's side avenged their defeat of four years earlier with a pre Italia 90 friendly win at Lansdowne Road against an injury-hit Wales side managed by Terry Yorath.
Middlesbrough's Scotland-born striker Bernie Slaven made his Ireland debut and scored what would be his only international goal to secure the Republic of Ireland's first-ever win over Wales.
Slaven scored from close range after Neville Southall had saved Everton team-mate and Wales-born Kevin Sheedy's penalty.
The Royal Dublin Showgrounds is home to the annual Dublin Horse Show and is also where Leinster Rugby have played their games since 2005.
Back in 1992 it seemed an unlikely venue to host senior international football for the first time, with its wooden stand and neat hedges along the touchline.
Mark Pembridge's first international goal secured victory for Wales, who have not beaten the Republic since.
Wales were back in Dublin a year later as they warmed up for a crucial World Cup qualifier against Belgium in Cardiff the following month.
With Lansdowne Road unavailable due to the Five Nations Championship, Tolka Park staged its second senior international with Wales the opposition once again.
Mark Hughes gave the visitors an early lead but two goals in last 15 minutes from Kevin Sheedy and Tommy Coyne secured the Republic's second win over Wales.
Wales were the Republic of Ireland's opposition in the historic first football match to be played at Dublin's Croke Park, home to the Gaelic Athletic Association and the first ever qualifying game between the nations.
GAA members had voted to allow international football and rugby union to be staged at the historic ground during the redevelopment of Lansdowne Road.
Katherine Jenkins sang the Welsh national anthem 'Hen Wlad fy Nhadau' ahead of a Euro 2008 qualifier played in front of over 72,000 but which failed to live up to the pre-match expectations.
It was rather apt that it was Stephen Ireland who scored the only goal of the game to beat a Welsh side which included Ryan Giggs, Craig Bellamy and a 17-year-old Gareth Bale.
Gary Speed's first game as Wales manager was the first match of the Nations Cup tournament, which also featured Scotland and Northern Ireland.
Wales' first visit to the newly redeveloped Aviva Stadium ended in a disappointing defeat.
Second half goals from Darren Gibson, Damien Duff and Kevin Fahey secured victory for Giovanni Trapattoni's side, who secured the Nations Cup later that season.
Barely 20,000 saw the first game and amid disappointing attendances - less than 600 saw Wales' game against Northern Ireland - and the tournament did not return for a second edition. | Wales have faced the Republic of Ireland at five grounds in Dublin, including the Aviva Stadium before and after redevelopment, which is more than any other nation. |

Please summarize the given passage. | Three other people were injured, one seriously, in the incident which happened between Arbroath an Montrose, near the Maryton junction.
The collision, at about 12:00, involved a car, a pick-up truck and a security van.
Police said the pensioner, who was driving a red Volkswagen Golf, died from his injuries at the scene.
The 47-year-old female driver of a blue Mercedes Sprinter Van sustained serious injuries and the front male passenger suffered minor injuries.
The 50-year-old male driver of Ford Ranger pick-up also suffered minor injuries in the collision.
All of the injured were taken to Ninewells Hospital by ambulance for treatment.
A Scottish Fire and Rescue spokesman said four appliances and a specialist rescue vehicle attended the incident.
The road is currently closed, but is expected to re-open later.
Parents received a letter saying the Something Special centre was being wound up and replaced by a new group, and its gates were locked on Monday.
The charity has not responded to several requests for information.
Based outside Eglinton, it was founded in 2007 and currently teaches 30 students with learning disabilities.
The centre uses music to aid learning and social interaction.
Two letters received by parents recently and purporting to come from management appear to contradict each other.
The first letter, dated 11 April, states that Something Special was not closing but going through a process of transferring its activities from an "association" to an "academy".
On 20 April, families received a second letter saying the charity was closing down and the new academy would be taking it over.
Mary Lynch - whose son John attended the charity four times a week - says parents "need answers".
"There are 30 students with learning disabilities with no place to go," Mary Lynch told BBC Radio Foyle.
"We just want somebody to talk to us. John is very distressed.
"Confusion creates anger and distress."
John Lynch, said he had learnt about music and art as a student at Something Special since 2007.
"Something Special means I always get to learn something new and make new friends," he said.
The charity grew rapidly in recent years and at one stage had a craft shop in Eglinton selling products that had been made by the students.
Robert Cooke's daughter Louise, who is 23 and severely autistic, has been attending the group for the last five years and loves the social interaction it offered.
"We have been left in the lurch," said Mr Cooke.
"For the past four weeks nearly now Louise has been in the house with us with no schemes or anything to go to.
"She's missing her friends now and she loves everybody that works in it. She's been asking when she can go back."
There is no suggestion of any wrong doing on anyone's part.
The link-up will see a school-based basketball league set up for boys and girls aged 11-12, with each co-ed side representing one of the 30 NBA teams.
Players will be kitted out in their corresponding NBA team-branded jerseys.
Squads will be divided into conferences and divisions with a playoffs series ending in a final - a similar format to the NBA.
With the league running from October through December, the programme will aim to teach youngsters the fundamentals of the game, as well as encouraging teamwork, fitness and healthy living.
"We are pleased to partner with Basketball Scotland to promote youth basketball development in Scotland through the launch of our first junior NBA league," said NBA EMEA associate vice president of basketball operations Neal Meyer.
"Together we will offer a programme that fosters healthy competition, teaches the values of the game, and provides an opportunity for children to have fun while learning more about the sport."
During the 2016-17 academic year, there were four junior NBA basketball leagues in the UK, with two based in London, one based in Manchester and another in Birmingham.
Scotland will now join a list of countries to have an NBA junior league, including China, Italy, Spain, Canada, Sweden and Brazil.
"Basketball Scotland are both humbled and excited by the opportunity to partner with the NBA to deliver their junior NBA programme here in Scotland," said Basketball Scotland head of education and development Derek O'Riordan.
"The team is looking forward to engaging with local kids who will benefit from this inspiring programme. The partnership will enable us to use the brand recognition behind the NBA to raise the profile of basketball in areas of Scotland not synonymous or familiar with the sport.
"It is also a ringing endorsement for us as an organisation, and a federation, to be given the prestige of running the junior NBA basketball league. Credit has to go to all the staff at Basketball Scotland for making this happen." | A 79-year-old man has been killed in a three-vehicle collision on the A92 in Angus.

Provide a brief summary for the information below. | Federal Environment Minister Josh Frydenberg and South Australian Premier Jay Weatherill were holding a press conference on Thursday when it descended into a bizarre confrontation.
The two men, on opposite sides of politics, had been discussing an energy crisis that has dominated national discussion this week.
Their feuding governments have spent months criticising each other - from afar, that is - since a storm blacked out South Australia last year.
But as the pair stood side-by-side in an Adelaide garage, at the launch of a new solar power network, the quarrel reached an awkward climax.
"I've got to say it is a little galling to be standing here next to a man who has been standing with his prime minister, bagging South Australia at every step of the way," said Mr Weatherill, as Mr Frydenberg stood silently.
"To be standing here on this occasion, him [Mr Frydenberg] suggesting we want to work together, is a disgrace.
"The way in which your government has treated our state, is the most anti-South Australian Commonwealth government we have seen in living memory."
Mr Frydenberg did not look at Mr Weatherill, fixing his gaze ahead before appearing to stifle an uneasy smile.
The minister then accused Mr Weatherill of "crash-tackling" his press conference, which soon ended. As Mr Frydenberg moved outside, he called his opponent's behaviour "unbecoming and childish".
Local media reported that Mr Frydenberg's office had been told Mr Weatherill would be at the briefing.
Their exchange whipped up a flurry of reactions.
The Australian Broadcasting Corp described Mr Weatherill's attack as a "shirtfront", a word formerly associated with the rough and tumble of Australian sport.
A short time later, Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull said his government would spend up to A$2bn (£1.3bn; $1.5bn) to expand the huge hydro power scheme.
The planned 2,000-megawatt increase could power the equivalent of 500,000 homes, he said.
The Snowy Hydro expansion remains subject to a feasibility study.
The existing Snowy Hydro scheme, built over 25 years and completed in 1974, comprises 16 dams and seven power stations in New South Wales and Victoria.
On Tuesday, Mr Weatherill announced his government would spend $500m to build 250-megawatt gas-fired power plant.
South Australia would also enlist the private sector to build Australia's largest battery before the end of the year.
"We think that a secure energy system should have multiple sources. It is a question of speed as well," he said. | Australian politicians are known to trade stinging barbs, but rarely does their antagonism unfold like this. |

Can you summarize this passage? | The Cherries led when Dan Gosling headed in Marc Pugh's cross.
Bournemouth wanted a penalty when Russell Martin held back Charlie Daniels in the area, and Norwich keeper Declan Rudd was fortunate not to be sent off for fouling Benik Afobe.
But Vadis Odjidja brought down Pugh to allow Daniels to score from the spot before Afobe rounded off the win.
It ended a four-game winless run in the Premier League for Eddie Howe's men, who climb above their opponents into 15th.
Relive Bournemouth's win over Norwich
Read all of Saturday's Premier League reaction
It was Norwich who came into the game in better form, having won three of their past five matches in the league, but this was a worrying performance against a side who came up with them from the Championship last season.
And the scoreline could have been even more emphatically in the home team's favour had referee Robert Madley decided to award a penalty for Martin's attempt to hold on to Daniels in the area, or opted to show Rudd a red card when the keeper clipped Afobe on his way through to goal.
It turned out the Cherries did not need the assistance of the official.
The tireless Pugh had already provided a superb cross for Gosling to nod in at the back post.
And in the second half Daniels, who was tremendous throughout, added an assist to his converted penalty by skipping past two Norwich players and sliding in a cross that allowed Afobe to poke in his first goal since joining from Wolves in a £10m move.
Norwich were reportedly among the clubs interested in signing Afobe in this transfer window, and they saw first hand at Dean Court that the 22-year-old has the strength, pace and finishing prowess to make an impact in the top flight.
The former Arsenal forward, who had scored nine Championship goals already this season, regularly held off Norwich's centre-half pairing of Sebastien Bassong and Ryan Bennett, laying off the ball to bring team-mates into the game.
He outpaced the Canaries back four on his way to being clattered by Rudd in the first half, before picking the perfect place in the six-yard box to collect his first Premier League goal in the second.
Bournemouth did not even need to use their returning striker Lewis Grabban, a £7m signing from the Canaries this week, as the striker was said to be ill and watched the game from the stands.
There were few positives for Norwich to take away from the south coast, as they dwell on back-to-back defeats in the league that leave them four points above the bottom three.

Their only chance of note was an opening for Dieumerci Mbokani, whose attempted lob drifted 10 yards wide of goal.
Alex Neil's side defended horribly at times, with full-backs Martin and Robbie Brady too often beaten by Bournemouth's widemen.
And the hosts could have added to their tally if Rudd, who was fortunate to still be on the pitch, had not pulled off sharp saves in the second half from Pugh's mazy dribble and shot as well as Steve Cook's header.
Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe: "It was the perfect afternoon in many ways.

"Any win in this league is so valuable and the players produced an excellent, assured performance.
"We knew the importance of this month going into it and today is a big step. We've got Sunderland next week and the games just keep getting bigger."
Norwich manager Alex Neil said: "We didn't deserve anything from the game, but we won't start buying people left, right and centre just because we lost the match.
"The transfer plans are in place, and we don't make decisions like that on the back of one game.
"Bournemouth were the better side. We didn't do enough with the ball and we got caught out by a couple of things we spoke about before the game, so that's disappointing."

"I know if I do that my opportunities will be the same as everybody else to make finals, win medals. As long as I'm happy at the end of the day. I can't really control the result."

"This feels different, it's more special because I've earned my place," she explained to BBC Sport.
"The experience from London will help immeasurably when it comes to Rio. That environment is like no other, so it's good to know what to expect."
McIntosh collected silver and bronze at the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, having won two golds and a bronze in Delhi four years earlier.

Summarize the content given in the passage. | The joint ministerial committee (JMC) includes the leaders from Westminster, Cardiff, Edinburgh and Belfast.
Both Wales and Scotland's governments have proposals which would let them keep full access to the single market.
Mrs May said while they would not agree on all matters, she hoped the discussions would be "constructive".
Downing Street said the meeting showed Mrs May's "commitment to engage with the devolved administrations and to seek a Brexit that works for the whole of the UK".
This is the first time the JMC has met outside London.
Ahead of the visit, Mrs May said: "We will not agree on everything, but that doesn't mean we will shy away from the necessary conversations and I hope we will have further constructive discussions today.
"We have also had the Supreme Court judgement which made clear beyond doubt that relations with the EU are a matter for the UK Government and UK Parliament.
"We should not forget that means MPs representing every community in the UK will be fully involved in the passage of Article 50 through Parliament."
The JMC last met in London in October, when the leaders of the devolved governments were told they must not "undermine" Brexit negotiations and First Minister Carwyn Jones said there was "certainly a great deal of uncertainty" about the UK's position.
Mrs May has offered the Welsh Government a formal seat in talks to shape the UK's EU exit strategy.
Mr Jones said: "Today's meeting is an important opportunity for open and frank discussions about the UK's future post-Brexit.
"While we know that the UK will leave the EU we don't yet know how that will happen or what form our relationship with the EU will look like beyond that point."
Mr Jones has published a plan for Brexit, calling for freedom of movement rules to be linked to whether migrants have a job.
The white paper, launched by Mr Jones and Plaid Cymru leader Leanne Wood in London, also demanded full single market access.
But Monday's event could be overshadowed by the continuing controversy over President Donald Trump's decision to introduce a 90-day travel ban for nationals from seven mainly-Muslim countries.
On Sunday, Mr Jones criticised what he called Mrs May's slow response to the move, saying "silence and evasion are not the hallmarks of leadership".
Mrs May initially said the USA's immigration policies were a matter for America, not her.
But late on Saturday night, Downing Street clarified the statement to: "Immigration policy in the United States is a matter for the government of the United States. But we do not agree with this kind of approach and it is not one we will be taking."
Mr Jones said he would raise the issue with the prime minister during Monday's meeting.

Summarize the information in the following document. | Michael Kane was knocked unconscious by a single punch to the face when he was apparently helping two women.
At Nottingham Crown Court earlier Ricky Scott, 29, admitted the attack but said he was protecting his girlfriend.
East Midlands Ambulance Service said it appeared his treatment "fell short of the standard expected".
Mr Kane was described by police as a good Samaritan when they released footage of him being knocked out by the blow in March.
In the CCTV images, shown to the court, he is seen approaching two women before a man runs up and punches him.
Scott, of Albany Road, New Basford, handed himself in to police after an appeal in the media, and at Nottingham Crown Court earlier he admitted the attack.
But he said he was trying to protect his girlfriend who had been racially abused.
Paramedics were called after Mr Scott made his own way back to his hotel but they did not consider his injuries to be serious, the court heard.
But when his condition deteriorated, a friend took him to hospital where doctors discovered he had multiple fractures to his skull and jaw.
In a statement, East Midlands Ambulance Service said: "It would appear that the service experienced by this gentleman fell short of the standard expected, and if this is the case then we are very sorry."
Scott has been bailed on a charge for wounding and will be sentenced at a later date.
The 23-year-old was part of Euro 2016 quarter-finalists Iceland's squad but did not make an appearance in France.
Magnusson joined Juventus' academy in 2011 and has spent the past two years on loan at Italian side Cesena.
"He's very mobile, quick and smooth on the ball. He's 6ft 3in and has a great left foot," head coach Lee Johnson told Bristol City's club website.
"At the age of 23 has plenty of time to mature as a player."
Chief operating officer Mark Ashton added: "It's been a real team effort from a number of people at the club to get this deal done and I look forward to welcoming him to Ashton Gate."

What is the summary of the provided article? | Witnesses in several locations said masked gunmen pulled up in a car before opening fire.
In many cases they checked the victims' names before shooting, or asked if they had criminal records.
The authorities in Sao Paulo are investigating the possibility that they were targeted killings.
The killings have all the hallmarks of revenge attacks - perhaps carried out by off-duty policemen or vigilantes - against drugs traffickers or known criminals, says the BBC's Wyre Davies.
Two policemen were killed in the city last week.
Police say the number of victims is much higher than in previous incidents.
"I've never seen so many people killed overnight in Sao Paulo," a forensic expert told Folha de Sao Paulo newspaper.
The attacks happened in the municipal areas of Osasco and Barueri.
At least six other people were injured in the shootings.
The authorities initially said 20 people had been killed, but the numbers have been revised down.
Video footage shows masked gunmen pulling up in a car and opening fire in a bar in Osasco. Ten people were killed there.
"This is very serious and merits a special investigation," said Sao Paulo state Security Secretary Alexandre de Moraes.
"We don't rule out any possibility."
A task force of 50 police officers has been set up to investigate the attacks.
In May, a policeman and a former policeman were arrested in connection with the murder of eight men at a football fan club in Sao Paulo.
The former policeman was accused of ordering the attack against supporters of the Corinthians football club.
They were preparing banners ahead of a match in April when gunmen burst in.
The yellow submarine is currently in Punta Arenas, Chile, and is due to sail for the Southern Ocean on Friday.
Scientists will use the robot to survey cold, deep waters that help to regulate Earth's climate.
The 3.5m-long sub was given the name that a public poll had suggested - but which ministers subsequently blocked - go on the JCR's replacement.
No matter - there is still enormous interest in the humorous moniker and the autonomous vehicles that will carry it underwater.
Southampton's National Oceanography Centre has built three robots in its new Autosub Long Range class, and all will be branded Boaty when they go out on an expedition.
The subs can stay down for weeks on end. They have a depth rating of 6,000m and a range of 6,000km.
The robots have proven their capabilities in a series of sea trials and are now open to the general scientific community to use.
First up is a mission being run by the British Antarctic Survey and the University of Southampton.
Their scientists plan to deploy Boaty to swim through a gap in the ocean floor ridge that extends northeast of the Antarctic Peninsula.
Known as the Orkney Passage, this opening is the main gateway for dense, cold waters formed around the White Continent to move into the Atlantic.
It is a key motor in the so-called "great ocean conveyor" - the relentless system of deep circulation that helps redistribute all the heat energy that has built up in the climate system.
The passage floor is very rugged, and will challenge Boaty's autonomous systems to keep it safe.
Mike Meredith from the British Antarctic Survey said: "Boaty's a very intelligent underwater system; it can sense the environment around it, so it knows the height it is above the seabed and it can map out its trajectory and its position in a very advanced way."
Povl Abrahamsen is a co-investigator on the cruise and took the pictures on this page. He added: "This is the first time that Boaty will be used in this type of environment, and it certainly will bring challenges.
"We're very much hoping that Boaty will help to give the spatial coverage that we can't really get from other methods."

But the UK's direct financial exposure to Greece is "minimal", he said.
On Tuesday night, Greece became the first developed nation to fail to make a payment to the IMF.

Can you provide a brief summary for this document? | The operation at La Chapelle, near Gare du Nord station, began at dawn.
The migrants - mainly Sudanese and Eritreans - are being moved by bus to migrant shelters in the capital.
Late on Monday a mass brawl broke out between several hundred African migrants living rough in Calais. Tents were set ablaze, iron bars were used, and 24 were injured, officials say.
Fourteen of the injured were admitted to hospital, and police reinforcements later restored order.
The AFP news agency says the clash happened in the so-called "new jungle" - a makeshift camp where 2,000 migrants live, near a reception centre providing hot meals.
The clash reportedly involved Sudanese and Eritreans, who have travelled to Calais hoping to get to the UK.
In Paris, city health officials who visited the camp at La Chapelle earlier reported that it was unhygienic and overcrowded, posing a public health risk.
The camp was set up several months ago but in February began attracting migrants who had crossed the Mediterranean to Italy.
French media said an estimated 200 of those living there were hoping to travel to the UK or Scandinavia while the rest were seeking asylum in France.
Social affairs minister Marisol Touraine told French radio that the decision to dismantle the camp was taken because of the threat of health epidemic primarily for those living there.
"We clearly have to ensure that each one from the camp is rehoused quickly in good conditions," she said. | French police are evicting an estimated 360 migrants from a makeshift camp under a Paris railway bridge. |
Summarize the following content briefly. | About 1,500 check-in staff, baggage handlers and cargo crew at a number of UK airports have also called a 48-hour strike from 23 December in a pay row.
In addition, some cabin crew at British Airways have called walkouts, while Argos delivery drivers this week suspended a strike at the eleventh hour.
The unrest is all the more unusual because for the last 30 years strikes have been falling to record low levels in the UK.
"We've not seen much strike action really since the mid-1980s," says Dr Alf Crossman, an industrial relations specialist at the University of Sussex.
"Back then it was the great British disease. It was like the weather - something you put up with."
The number and size of walkouts has dropped sharply since the days of the Miners' Strike in 1984-85 and the Winter of Discontent in the late 1970s.
In comparison, last year the number of working days lost through strikes - 170,000 - was the second lowest on record.
"The level of action now pales into insignificance compared to the Winter of Discontent in 1978-79," says Prof Gregor Gall from the University of Bradford.
Then, a wave of crippling strikes spread across the country, leading ultimately to the collapse of the Labour government and the election of Margaret Thatcher.
"It's so difficult to draw real comparisons because so much has changed," agrees Dr Crossman.
Before the Thatcher administration, trade unions were more powerful, while the railways, British Airways and Royal Mail were all state-owned.
"We would not be talking about a Southern rail strike, it would be a nationwide rail strike," says Dr Crossman.
But there are also some parallels, experts say, such as stagnant wages for some workers, inflation edging back up, and the first fully Conservative government in almost 20 years.
"It feels like there's an undercurrent of discontent building," says Andy Cook, chief executive of Marshall-James, which advises firms on industrial relations.
"People are feeling the pinch," he says. "Average workers feel they're not being paid in line with profits and therefore are more willing to stand up."
When? Friday 16 December, Monday 19 December to Tuesday 20 December
Why? Unions say the dispute is about safety, but Southern and the government say it is political
When? Crown Post Office workers on Monday 19 December, Tuesday 20 December, and Saturday 24 December. Delivery drivers to rural Post Offices on Thursday 22 December and Friday 23 December
Why? Jobs, pensions and branch closures at Crown Post Offices - the larger branches usually located on High Streets
When? Sunday 25 December to Monday 26 December
Why? Pay for about 4,000 staff who joined after 2010 on "Mixed Fleet" contracts
When? Friday 23 December to Saturday 24 December
Why? A longstanding pay dispute - the Unite union says wages have not kept up with inflation
Trade unions are at pains to point out that all of these strikes are separate.
"The causes of recent strikes differ from strike to strike, ranging from safety on the railways to closures of post offices. Each dispute is specific to that workplace," says Frances O'Grady, general secretary of the TUC trade union body.
"Going on strike is always a last resort, especially for the hardworking staff who take pride in their work, and will lose pay while on strike," she adds.
Of the four strikes, only the British Airways one and the airport workers one are explicitly about pay.
Still, the level of industrial unrest is on the rise. The number of working days lost to strikes in the first 10 months of 2016 has already passed last year's total, largely because of the junior doctors' strike in April and the teachers' strike in July.
The unions do seem to be "flexing their muscles", Dr Crossman says.
In the background, there's also the Labour Party's closer relationship with trade unions under Jeremy Corbyn, and the implications of Unite general secretary Len McCluskey standing for re-election.
Companies are also less experienced at handling strikes, says Dr Crossman. "In 30 years of relative industrial peace, management have forgotten how to deal with industrial relations."
When it comes to Christmas walkouts, unions have to weigh the risk of negative publicity against the stronger bargaining position, particularly in sectors like travel and mail delivery where people rely on them more than usual.
With the Argos delivery drivers, the threat of strikes helped secure a pay deal - an example of the leverage trade unions can hold in the festive period.
"Would it have got traction if it was in August? Probably not," says Mr Cook.
At least the possible disruption to mail deliveries, and yet more delays for commuters on Southern, is due to industrial tensions and not the weather.
The unrest during the Winter of Discontent was exacerbated by blizzards and deep snow.
And with weather forecasts this year looking milder, that seems a more remote prospect for the Christmas of Discontent. | With commuters on Southern rail services facing yet another day of strikes, and Crown Post Office workers pushing ahead with walkouts, are we facing a Christmas of Discontent? |
Write a brief summary of the document. | The research by the London School of Economics looked at responses from 200,000 people on how different factors impacted their wellbeing.
Suffering from depression or anxiety hit individuals hardest, whilst being in a relationship saw the biggest increase in their happiness.
The study's co-author said the findings demanded "a new role from the state".
The study was based on several international surveys from around the world.
On a scale of one to 10, the doubling of someone's pay saw their happiness rise by less than 0.2. The researchers said this was down to people caring more about how their incomes compared to other people's than how it affected them.
However, having a partner saw happiness rise by 0.6 - losing a partner by separation or death saw the same impact downwards.
The biggest effect was caused by depression and anxiety, which saw happiness levels dip by 0.7 on the scale. Unemployment also saw the same reduction in points.
Report co-author Prof Richard Layard said the findings meant that the state needed to play a new role in its citizens' happiness - focusing on "wellbeing creation" rather than "wealth creation".
He added: "The evidence shows that the things that matter most for our happiness and for our misery are our social relationships and our mental and physical health.
"In the past, the state has successively taken on poverty, unemployment, education and physical health. But equally important now are domestic violence, alcoholism, depression and anxiety conditions, alienated youth, exam-mania and much else. These should become centre stage."
Navinder Singh Sarao first appeared at Westminster Magistrates' Court last Wednesday,
He failed to make bail last week. He will appear in court again on 6 May.
Mr Sarao, who wore a grey sweater and tracksuit trousers in court, has said he will oppose extradition to the US.
He spoke only to confirm his date of birth and address.
Mr Sarao has been charged by the US Department of Justice (DoJ) with wire fraud, commodities fraud and market manipulation.
A review date of the case remains as 26 May, but the date for a full extradition hearing has been pushed back from August to 24-25 September.
To secure his release, Mr Sarao must pay £5m and his parents must pay £50,000.
Mr Sarao's bail conditions state that he must stay at his parents' address in Hounslow, west London, each night, and cannot travel internationally or use the internet.
The DoJ claims that Mr Sarao and his firm, Nav Sarao Futures, made £26m ($40m) illegally over five years.
He has been accused of using an "automated trading program" to manipulate markets, and contributing to the flash crash of 6 May 2010. On that day, the Dow Jones index lost 700 points in a matter of minutes - wiping about $800bn off the value of US shares - before recovering just as quickly.
Regulators blamed high-frequency traders placing multiple sell orders for the crash.
High-speed trading is where share dealers use computer algorithms to buy and sell stocks in milliseconds.
The DoJ said last week that "Sarao's alleged manipulation earned him significant profits and contributed to a major drop in the US stock market on May 6, 2010".
Its statement continued: "By allegedly placing multiple, simultaneous, large-volume sell orders at different price points - a technique known as 'layering' - Sarao created the appearance of substantial supply in the market."
Mr Sarao was then able to buy and sell futures contracts tied to the value of the share indexes, it is alleged. | Good mental health and having a partner make people happier than doubling their income, a new study has found.

A fatal foetal abnormality (FFA) diagnosis means medics believe an unborn child will die either in the womb or shortly after birth.
Sinn Féin's Martin McGuiness has called for MLAs to legislate for FFA cases.
Speaking after a British-Irish meeting in Wales last Friday, Martin McGuinness said he believed cases where there is no prospect of life were "challenging situations which need to be addressed".
The deputy first minister supported the right of any family told they have a fatal abnormality to have their child.
But he also backed the right of families unable to do that to access a termination.
Mr McGuinness said opinion polls had shown people in Northern Ireland are "very compassionate about how such situations should be dealt with".
Alliance Party leader Naomi Long has criticised the executive for its delay in publishing the report's recommendations.
First Minister Arlene Foster confirmed she had seen the paper from the working group, which was originally commissioned by the DUP's former health minister Simon Hamilton.
Mrs Foster recognised that "in a very small number of cases there are heartbreaking issues that have to be dealt with" and the executive needed to make appropriate provision for those matters.
However she added that there is "no point making bad law to deal with one or two circumstances", adding that law should be made after considering all the implications.
The first minister revealed she had already started the process of engaging with her own party about the conclusions of the working group's report and the evidence taken on the issue.
Mrs Foster wouldn't confirm whether the working group had recommended a change in the law, but said she wanted to make sure that "women who find themselves in this very difficult circumstance have the care that they require".
However, a Stormont source has now told the BBC the working group does recommend a change in the law and, depending on the DUP's internal discussions, a paper is ready to go to the executive either in late December or early January.
The working group was chaired by Chief Medical Officer Michael McBride and consisted of six senior officials.
The issue of fatal foetal abnormality has been in the headlines since October 2013 when Belfast woman Sarah Ewart revealed the harrowing details of her journey to England to seek a termination.
Distill Ventures, which is part of the Diageo group, said it was investing an unspecified sum in Melbourne-based Starward Whisky.

Please summarize the passage below. | Calan Morrison, 29, raped one woman at houses in Fernhill, Glasgow, and at Galston, East Ayrshire.
He indecently assaulted another victim at houses in Elderslie, Renfrewshire, and Clydebank, West Dunbartonshire. He also abducted two women who were left locked in a flat in Faifley, Clydebank.
Sentence on Morrison was deferred and he was remanded in custody.
Morrison, who has a previous conviction for sex with an underage girl, was also placed on the sex offenders' register.
During his trial at the High Court in Edinburgh, Morrison accused the women of lying.
One woman told the court how she was raped by Morrison in 2014.
She told the jury: "I said 'no' about 100 times. I don't see how that could be consensual."
Another woman told the court how Morrison had grabbed her hair and forced her to perform a sex act.
One victim also said she was repeatedly locked in a flat by Morrison.
"I could never take the dog out for a walk. The dog used to defecate in the house," she said.
"There was electricity, but there was no heating. It was really cold," she said.
The woman told the court how she managed to get out of the flat in 2005 after sending a text to an acquaintance and the door was eventually broken down.
Another woman told Morrison's trial: "I was constantly locked in the house. He constantly wasn't there. I sat in the flat with no heating and no hot water."
The woman said that during the period in 2004 she was left feeling that her self-esteem had hit "rock bottom".

Can you write a short summary of this section? | Briton Joshua stopped Klitschko at Wembley last month to add the WBA world heavyweight title to his IBF crown.
Wales' rugby union team will play at the Principality Stadium for most Saturdays in November and December, but 28 October could be a potential date.
"Talks are ongoing over venues," said Joshua's promoter Eddie Hearn.
Joshua's thrilling win over Ukrainian Klitschko was watched by a post-war record crowd of 90,000 at Wembley.
Staging a rematch outdoors could be difficult in the autumn, but the 74,500-capacity Principality Stadium's retractable roof could make it a viable option.
Hearn has said he believes a rematch "will go ahead" - even if it casts doubt over whether Joshua, 27, can retain his IBF title.
The IBF has named Kubrat Pulev as a mandatory challenger, and says a fight with the Bulgarian must be next for Joshua.
As such, the IBF appears obliged to strip Joshua should he opt for a return fight with Klitschko, but Hearn has indicated he will put in a mandatory exception request.
Martyn Phillips, chief executive of both the Principality Stadium and Welsh Rugby Union, has previously said the governing body is "in conversations with various boxing promoters".
The stadium has hosted speedway, rugby league, football and boxing, and Phillips says talks are continuing with the NFL.

Pastor Penuel Mnguni gained notoriety after photos showed him dangling a live snake into a man's mouth.
However, police withdrew charges of animal cruelty against him.
Police spokesman Mathews Nkoadi said in July that there were no witness statements and insufficient evidence to bring a case.
Dubbed the "snake pastor", Mr Mnguni runs the End Times Disciples Ministries in Soshanguve, north of Pretoria.
The EFF said that they had raided a service on Sunday because they wanted Mr Mnguni to "lead by example" and eat snakes and rats.
But EFF spokesman Mbuyiseni Ndlozi tweeted that the pastor "ran away" so they were unable to confront him. Mr Mnguni has not commented on the raid.

Give a brief overview of this passage. | Speaking at the party's economic conference in Glasgow, John McDonnell described the government's austerity measures as "criminally destructive".
He also said Labour would hold a summit next month on helping self-employed workers who face a rise in National Insurance, under new government plans.
The formal process of Britain leaving the EU is expected to begin this week.
Mr McDonnell said the Brexit vote had created "huge challenges" and warned that "crashing out of the EU" would mean Britain would be cut off from investment.
"We will be cut off from our biggest trading partner. We will be cut off from the skills and contribution that EU nationals have made to our economy and society," he said.
Calling for a "radically different approach", Mr McDonnell called not only for devolution in Scotland and Wales, but also for the English counties and regions, which he said should enjoy greater freedoms.
The Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has said it would be "absolutely fine" for Scotland to hold a second independence referendum.
The shadow chancellor spoke of a "right to own", saying, under Labour, workers in a company facing a change of ownership would get first refusal on putting forward their own takeover plan.
He also laid out his vision of giving "power back to the people" through letting local communities take control of their own energy supplies.
The prime minister has set a deadline of 31 March for triggering article 50 of the Lisbon treaty which would start the formal process for Britain to leave the European Union.
Mr McDonnell also further criticised Chancellor Philip Hammond's announcement of a rise in National Insurance (NI) for some self-employed workers, unveiled in last week's Spring Budget, saying it broke "a clear manifesto promise" not to raise taxes.
He said Labour "had always been the party of workers, of artisans" and would produce a "radical" plan to deal with the growing number of people who work for themselves in the so-called gig economy where short-term contracts are common.
He revealed that next month Labour will chair talks with unions, the self-employed and small businesses on how best to help self-employed workers, in the wake of the NI changes.
"The Chancellor's decision to push a £2bn tax rise on low and middle-earner self employed made little sense.
"You can't simply demand more taxes off people without offering something in return."
A gig economy is an environment in which temporary positions are usual and organisations take out contracts with independent workers for short-term engagements.
Mr Hammond has faced a backlash over his announcement of a 2% hike in Class 4 National Insurance contributions for some self-employed workers, which would mean 1.6 million people paying £240 more on average every year.
The prime minister has said she remains "fully committed" to the NI changes and the independent think tank the Institute for Fiscal Studies has backed the rise.

Thomas responded by scoring a double in his first start for Kilmarnock as the Ayrshire side came from behind to beat Clyde 4-2 in the League Cup on Tuesday.
Motherwell manager Stephen Robinson said he allowed Thomas to join Killie on a three-year contract because he believed the young Scot no longer wanted to be at Fir Park.
"Everyone has a different opinion, but the way they were playing wasn't really for me," said Thomas.
"The way they set out to play football here is perfect for me.
"The manager said he wants me to play with a smile on my face and that was music to my ears.
"The way I wanted to play football was the way he wants me to play and I am thankful for that."

Provide a summary of the section below. | We have used a combination of Freedom of Information requests to 186 trusts and health boards across the UK - 140 provided answers to at least some of the questions - and then followed that up with requests for extra information from more than 20 of the organisations, carried out interviews with hospital managers and doctors, and cross-referenced the findings with other sources of data.
The investigation has found wide variation in approaches to overtime - and a rising cost from paying it.
A full-time consultant is expected to work 10 shifts of four hours a week. The average basic salary for that is £89,000 a year in England.
Payments for overtime are negotiated locally by hospitals. Some consultants agree to do extra shifts under the terms of their contract - so-called plain time.
But others are paid at a higher rate for extra work - and it was on this that the BBC investigation focused.
Hospitals take a variety of approaches when it comes to these payments. The highest rates tend to be paid for routine work, such as knee and hip treatments.
These are paid under a system called the waiting list initiative, and commonly, hospitals pay around £600 for a four-hour shift for these. But the BBC has found evidence of payments climbing to around £1,000 for some, once supplements are added on.
Many hospitals have negotiated lower rates for more urgent work. These are commonly around the £300-a-shift mark.
Our findings suggest the average payment is just over £13,300 per consultant per year for those who receive them.
The most made in overtime payments was by a consultant at Lancashire Teaching Hospitals, who received £375,000 in 2015-16. That was on top of the individual's basic salary.
The trust has refused to name the doctor or reveal what speciality he or she works in - and despite repeated attempts, has refused to divulge more information about the case, except for saying that they have worked "significantly more hours than usual at an enhanced rate" because of a shortage of consultants and high demand.
That was the highest payment by some way, although only half of trusts and health boards responded to the question about the most a consultant had made.
The next highest payment was £205,000 to a consultant employed by East Kent Hospitals.
But it does appear high payments are widespread - two out of three trusts and health boards had paid at least one consultant more than £50,000 last year, with one in four paying £100,000 or more.
Surgeons, radiologists, urologists, anaesthetists and gastroenterologists were the specialists most likely to get the high sums.
While payment for premium overtime shifts is commonly around £600 for a four-hour shift, there is a wide variation in how overtime is rewarded. Even within the same hospital rates can vary enormously.
Every trust the BBC approached for detailed information on how individual consultants had earned the large sums refused on data protection grounds.
But talking to people who work in the health service we have been able to piece together some of the ways doctors can rack up six-figure salaries.
It goes without saying, they do lots of hours - some are regularly working 20 hours a week or more in overtime.
The most experienced doctors are able to command extra supplements on top of the normal high-rate overtime payment. This can bring the payments to around the £1,000-mark. Doing back-to-back four-hour shifts, it is possible in theory to make £2,000 a day.
Remember though, not all consultants work full-time, so the overtime may not be on top of a full 40-hour week.
From the information we have been provided it is hard to get a really clear idea of this.
It would appear as many as half of consultants may get higher rate payments. Some 98 trusts and health boards provided full information about numbers. This showed more than 13,000 consultants had received high-cost overtime payments - about half the workforce in these hospitals.
There could be some double-counting as some hospitals had used doctors from other hospitals to do the work, while others had offered waiting list initiative shifts to locums as they could not fill them with their own doctors.
But hospitals told the BBC the overwhelming majority were consultants employed by them themselves.
And data from other sources, including the Health and Social Care Information Centre, suggests somewhere approaching half the workforce would be a reasonable estimate.
A total of 114 trust and health boards answered the question about the total spent on high-cost overtime in full over the three years.
That is about six in 10 of the total in the UK so we only have a partial picture. Among those that responded, spending reached £168m in 2015-16 - a rise of a third over the past two years.
If that spending was replicated across the other hospitals the total would be close to £300m - that would be enough to pay for about 3,000 consultants or more than 12,000 nurses.
But to put that in context £6bn is spent on consultant pay in England so it looks like premium rate overtime accounts for less than 5% of spending in this area.
The hospitals to whom the BBC spoke commonly cited a growing shortage of consultants. In Scotland, the vacancy rate for consultants is between 6% and 7%.
Official figures are not kept in England, but anecdotally it seems a similar shortage is being experienced.
In some of the trusts with the highest rates of overtime payments the vacancy rate is in excess of 10%.
Demand for care is also cited as a cause. It is well documented that patient demand is rising and hospitals are under pressure to hit their waiting-time targets.
Hospitals have also pointed to the rising pressures in emergency departments. This causes routine treatments to be postponed - and that is the care that is the most expensive to arrange overtime for.
Ministers in England want to change the consultant contract and remove the opt-out they have for working weekends when it comes to non-emergency care as part of their drive for more seven-day services.
Talks are under way, but it is likely to be the autumn before there is any resolution.
While the focus of seven-day care is not really on the routine elements of treatment, negotiators believe removing it will help create a fairer system, especially if they manage to get the British Medical Association to agree to a more standardised system for extra work.
That in theory would free up money, which, of course, would help with extending services.
But the BMA argues the problems with shortages would still exist - and hospitals would be faced with the choice of paying overtime or contracting work out to the private sector. They are already under pressure to reduce the use of locums so that is not really an option. | The BBC has been investigating overtime payments made to consultants by hospitals. |

Summarize the provided section. | Some 800 jobs will move from Belfast to the former Shackleton Army barracks in Ballykelly.
Sammy Wilson's concerns came to light after an investigation by BBC Northern Ireland's The View.
But Agriculture Minister Michelle O'Neill said she was content with her decision.
It is the latest twist in the executive's pledge to transfer civil service jobs west in a bid to redress an historic imbalance in investment, with government departments largely based in the greater Belfast area.
The View found Mr Wilson was asked to approve a decision by the agriculture minister to over-rule advice from her permanent secretary and opt for Ballykelly, without further appraising other potential sites.
Ms O'Neill's "ministerial direction" had to be approved by the finance minister.
But it has emerged he, too, had concerns and, because the decision affected other departments, he brought the matter to the executive.
It is understood Mr Wilson's concerns included the cost, staffing consideration and access to the former barracks site.
However, in an interview with The View, Ms O'Neill said the Ballykelly site was ideal, was already owned by the executive and would regenerate the area.
She said she was content with the process, which included an assessment of local council areas. Limavady, near Ballykelly, came second in an internal departmental audit, just behind Strabane.
She said the executive had approved her decision to seek a business appraisal for Ballykelly.
"At the end of the day you would have wasted a lot of time going through all areas where the location was never going to happen so this was just a logical step for me," she said.
What about the finance minister's concerns?
"I think I followed process," said Ms O'Neill. "He (Mr Wilson) had voiced concerns. But that's ok. I'm content with the approach I've taken. I think it is a reasonable approach. I stand over it."
Ms O'Neill said she hopes the trade union, NIPSA, which is seeking legal advice on the decision, will accept her explanation about why she opted for Ballykelly, before she began her Equality Impact Assessment.
NIPSA has not yet ruled out a Judicial Review.
Ballykelly is now in line for a multi-million pound investment, a boon for an area that has suffered a series of economic blows in recent years.
Tina McCloskey, from Ballykelly Community Centre, said the closure of the army camp had been a really big blow for Ballykelly.
She added: "Bringing these jobs and bringing these people here to Ballykelly and maybe people using the services in Ballykelly would be a good thing for us."
Mrs McCloskey is among those pressing the Office of First and Deputy First Minister (OFMDFM) for a new community centre on the Ballykelly site which would provide services such as creche and catering facilities for workers.
OFMDFM acquired the land from the Ministry of Defence in 2011 in another controversial decision.
The MoD "gifted" the land to the executive but it came with a price tag, as it comes with millions of pounds in maintenance and clean-up costs.
The site is partly on reclaimed land that is prone to flooding and some of it is contaminated with lead and other pollutants.
Because of the costs, the OFMDFM accounting officer advised ministers it did not represent value for money.
This led to a "ministerial direction" being issued by Peter Robinson and Martin McGuinness.
John Dallat, who supported jobs coming to Ballykelly in his rural constituency, still has concerns about this initial decision.
Commenting on the ministerial direction, he pointed out it is not done very often and only occurs where a senior civil servant cannot stand over a plan under civil service rules.
He argued that more pressure should have been applied to the MOD to share the costs of clean-up, and maintenance.
Jim Allister, the TUV leader and MLA for North Antrim, is among those asking questions, and complaining about the number of ministerial directions that have been invoked by the executive since 2007.
Mr Allister told the BBC the Ballykelly case seems to be driven by political rather than economic considerations.
He has tabled a number of questions about the number and nature of ministerial directions since 2007, questions the BBC has also put to the Department of Finance. | NI's finance minister had concerns about a decision to relocate the agriculture department to a former army base in the north west, it has emerged. |
Provide a summary of the section below. | Her mother, Kate McCann, said she also finds the slowness of the Portuguese investigation "distressing".
Madeleine was three when she disappeared in Praia da Luz, Algarve, seven years ago on Saturday.
Mrs McCann said she walks in that area every year to feel closer to Madeleine.
Madeleine's bedroom at the family home in Rothley, Leicestershire, has been kept exactly as it was when she went missing, her mother said.
"She might want to change it a bit now she's a bit older," Mrs McCann said. "It's absolutely the same."
Mrs McCann's visits to Praia da Luz take place once or twice a year, with the most recent being in April 2013.
"That's obviously the last place we were with Madeleine," she said.
"I'll still walk those streets and I guess try to look for answers. It helps me, most of the time."
She admitted she went "quietly" so as not to generate publicity which some local people "resent".
Scotland Yard launched a new investigation - codenamed Operation Grange - into Madeleine's disappearance last July, two years into a review of the case, and made renewed appeals for information.
A high-profile campaign run by the McCanns and the Portuguese police investigation had so far failed to locate the missing child.
Mrs McCann said she was particularly frustrated that police in Portugal had so far ruled out a joint inquiry with their British counterparts.
"As a parent, I find the slowness of action in Portugal really hard to take. I find it quite distressing," she said.
"Even though we're seven years down the line, waiting weeks or months, particularly for letters of request to be processed basically... it is frustrating.
"I suppose I do struggle with the fact. Please work together."
Mrs McCann said she had not been given a reason why a joint team had not been set up.
"To us, it makes sense that the two police forces should work together, to have a more streamlined approach to avoid duplication and basically to progress the investigation at a faster pace," she added.
Her husband Gerry said: "What is very, very clear is that there are lots of lines of inquiry and a lot of further work needs to be done in Portugal.
"The Met can only do so much with the information that they have."
Mr McCann said it was a "big step forward" that the Portuguese investigation had been reopened but admitted the bureaucratic process was causing delays.
"The concern that we have, and I think also that the Metropolitan Police have, is that at the minute, there's almost parallel investigations going on, which doesn't make sense," said Mr McCann.
"We're not quite sure why there's resistance to the joint investigation team, because clearly resources in Portugal is an issue and this would be one mechanism by which they could have additional funding."
The seventh anniversary of the day Madeleine went missing from the McCann's holiday apartment will be marked with a small gathering in their home village.
They said they planned to celebrate Madeleine's 11th birthday later this month with their other two children, nine-year-old twins Sean and Amelie.
Mr McCann said: "It's really hard. She's not there. It's by far the toughest day of our year, every year."
The family still has a birthday cake for Madeleine every year, said Mrs McCann.
She added: "You think - 11, she's due to start secondary school in September. Which is just.... It's a long time."
Madeleine's younger brother and sister were described by their mother as "great kids".
"They really are wonderful," said Mrs McCann. "They've grown up with a big sister not being there.
"She's talked about frequently... we're a family of five, they've got an elder sister and they've handled it incredibly well."
Her husband added that the pair are "normal, happy nine-year-olds."
The best-case scenario, said Mr McCann, would be if Madeleine had been "taken by someone who wanted a child" and has been "loved and cared for".
High-profile cases of missing women found years after they were taken, including Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight who were rescued from a house in Ohio last year, have given them hope, the McCanns said.
"If you're one of those people, then statistics mean nothing." said Mrs McCann. "It is real hope. We're not blinkered.
"We know what the statistics say. But we also know about all of these cases.
"For each one of those children, now women, that have been found, statistics would have said they were dead."
Asked for a message for Madeleine, her mother said: "We love you Madeleine. We miss you every day, as we did that very first day, and we're waiting for you.
"We're never going to give up. We'll do whatever we can to find you." | The parents of Madeleine McCann have told the BBC they are frustrated there is no joint British and Portuguese police inquiry into her disappearance. |
Summarize the information in the following section. | The New South Wales premier's page was flooded with comments, almost all negative, after he mounted a defence of controversial "lockout laws" that many say have killed off Sydney's night-time economy.
Mr Baird says the laws are reducing assaults, and that a number of small bars have opened since the laws were introduced.
But questions have also been raised about why the city's Star Casino and another planned casino are exempt - the Star falls just outside the zone - leading to the premier being mocked with the hashtag #casinomike.
Since February 2014, bars and clubs within parts of Sydney have been required to shut their doors to new patrons from 1.30 in the morning and stop serving drinks at 3:00, with severe penalties for bar owners who breach the conditions.
Sales of takeaway alcohol from hotels and shops are banned statewide after 22:00.
The origin of these laws can be traced to July 2012, when 19-year-old Kieran Loveridge walked up to Thomas Kelly in the entertainment precinct of Kings Cross and, without provocation or warning, punched him in the head.
Mr Kelly, 19, fell to the ground and later died in hospital.
Kings Cross saw its second "coward punch" death on New Year's Eve in 2013, when bodybuilder Shaun McNeil, 27, killed 18-year-old Daniel Christie with a single blow in an unprovoked attack.
Both attackers were jailed.
Public outcry over these incidents was immense, and the NSW government responded by designating Sydney's most popular party zones a "CBD Entertainment Precinct".
But it had a devastating impact on businesses that depended on late-night trade, particularly around the Kings Cross area.
Some of Australia's best-known bars and clubs shut down, among them Hugos Lounge, which had operated for 15 years and was voted best nightclub in Australia six times.
Owner Dave Evans said the laws caused a 60% drop in trade, forcing him to close his doors and put 170 staff out of work.
Frustration over the laws' impact on Sydney's nightlife crystalysed last week with the publication on LinkedIn of an 8,000-word essay by businessman Matt Barrie.
Mr Barrie passionately denounced the impact of the laws and pushed a philosophy of personal responsibility that touched a nerve with many Sydneysiders.
"You've been tricked into thinking that you have done something wrong, in some way that you are genetically an idiot, or that somehow you have to feel responsible for a couple of random tragic, yet unrelated, events that occurred in the vague proximity of having fun," he wrote.
"Two young men that would be turning in their graves if they knew that their deaths had been hijacked to beat up some moral outrage over the sort of human tragedy that sells newspapers to put up a political smokescreen, push a prohibitionist evangelical agenda, sell a suburb to developers, and boost the coffers of a couple of casinos."
Reaction to Mr Barrie's piece prompted Mr Baird, a conservative and Christian, to respond on social media, where he had previous success live-tweeting amusing responses to the finale of reality television show The Bachelor.
"Alcohol-related assaults have decreased 42.2% in the CBD since we introduced the 'lockout laws'. And they are down by over 60% in Kings Cross," he wrote.
"But didn't we achieve this by shutting down the whole city and killing its nightlife? The number of small bars in Sydney has more than doubled in the same period."
"Doctors right across the city are now telling us they are seeing far less emergency room presentations on the weekends."
But this time the move appears to have backfired, with the post attracting more than 12,000 comments, overwhelmingly negative.
"I am not proud of our city and embarrassed to invite guests here from overseas," said one.
Another said the state was "treating us all like kids because of the actions of random street scum".
"Sydney has a rich history of the inner city pub which you are destroying," said another. "Thanks mate #casinomike."
Popular Australian DJ and musician Alison Wonderland was one of the many who responded to Mr Baird.
"Words can't explain how embarrassed I am that my home, the most beautiful and once most vibrant city in the world has become a laughing stock internationally," she wrote.
"People are asking me if it's true Sydney has become a nanny state and voice their genuine concerns about visiting it."
Another commenter was Justin Maloney, owner of the restaurant Jimmy Liks, which closed last month after 14 years.
"You said you wanted to 'eliminate drinking ghettos' - well, Mr Baird, my award-winning restaurant was no ghetto but you certainly eliminated it," he wrote.
Even Mr Baird's "cherry picked" assault statistics were called into question.
The lockout laws are almost two years old now and due to be subjected to a detailed review.
But Mr Baird indicated he was unlikely to change the policy, which he believed was "so clearly improving the city".
But it remains to be seen if the popular premier will hold his ground if anger at the lockout laws continues to gather momentum. | It took a single Facebook post to turn Mike Baird, leader of Australia's most populous state, from darling to pariah on social media. |

They have already found 11 bodies near the shack where the 34-year-old Valencia lived.
But they think there may be more bodies buried there.
Valencia said he killed his victims, all of whom were women, for refusing to have sex with him and then disposed of their bodies in bin bags.
The case came to light on 28 November when police on Monserrate mountain came across a plastic bag containing human bones next to a wooden shack.
Monserrate dominates the Bogota skyline and is popular with tourists and pilgrims who visit the shrine on its summit.
Forensic experts called to the scene found four more bodies that same day.
Hours later, police arrested the owner of the wooden shack in Bogota's city centre.
He identified himself as Fredy Valencia, a homeless man who had been living in the woods on Monserrate for years.
He told police that he had approached women in the Bronx, a poor neighbourhood of Bogota infamous for prostitution and drug consumption.
Valencia said that he offered them food and clothes in exchange for sexual favours.
He told officers that he had taken more than 100 women to his shack.
He confessed to killing his first victim four years ago after she allegedly tried to steal his coat.
Valencia said he strangled many more women for refusing to have sex with him.
The exact number of victims is still unclear, but most of them are thought to have been between 18 and 30 years old.

A church near Dusseldorf has bought the instrument from Avenue Baptist Church in Westcliff-on-Sea in Essex.
Minister Andrew Picton said sending it to Germany was a "remarkable symbol" of "Christian reconciliation" 100 years after the two countries were at war.
The "rarely used" organ was sold as the church is being redeveloped.
Avenue Baptist Church congregation raised money to fund the organ between 1919 to 1921 in memory of the 15 men from the church who died during World War One.
It was made by organ manufacturers Henry Speechley and installed in 1921.
However, the 120-year-old church is now being redeveloped "to make it more appropriate for 21st Century worship" and it was decided to sell the instrument.
Rick Owen, from the church, said it was initially advised it would be hard to find a buyer and it was feared the organ would be scrapped.
"Someone in Norfolk expressed an interest, but it fell through," he said. "Then a colleague posted its details on websites specialising in church organs - and within a week a German church got in touch."

It is estimated that about 1,000 are killed each year, primarily for their horn.
The firms have set up a local area network and wi-fi hotspots around the private, unnamed reserve, which is adjacent to the Kruger national park.
The next stage will be to link CCTV and infra-red cameras with thermal imaging, drones and vehicle tracking sensors to the network.
Tracking sensors are placed on vehicles and people are informed about the tracking when they enter the reserve. Car registrations are also checked at the gate against a national database of stolen cars and personal IDs are scrutinised.
The plan is to replicate it in other reserves not just to protect rhinos but other endangered species including elephants, lions and tigers.
Drones have been used before to help conservation efforts and last year British scientists from the University of St Andrews showed off a system dubbed Protect Rapid (real-time anti-poaching intelligence device) that combined a satellite collar with a heart-rate monitor and video cameras that are embedded in rhino's horns.
The heart-rate monitor triggers the alarm and rangers are immediately dispatched.
There are other schemes to place microchips under the skin of the animals.
One of the key advantages of the new system is that it is non-invasive, said Dimension Data executive Bruce Watson.
"We don't touch the animals by darting them with tranquilisers to insert sensors into their horns, or insert a chip under their skin. This can be extremely stressful and risky for the animal and we've seen a number of rhinos either dying, or going blind, and having to be euthanised."
Dr Paul Glover-Kapfer, the World Wildlife Fund's technology adviser, told the BBC that technology was "an increasing factor" in WWF's global work.
"The system outlined by Cisco and Data Dimensions, whilst not a panacea, is a welcome addition on this front."
But he questioned how applicable it would be "outside of well-funded protected areas".
"To be truly transformative, technology needs to be accessible, both in terms of its technical complexity and affordability.
Connectivity in particular is a huge challenge facing many conservation organisations, and WWF is working with technology leaders to design systems for real-time data transfer to and from the remote areas within which we work." | New technology to combat rhino poaching is being trialled in South Africa. |
Summarize the following piece. | Now it appears that their closer contact with animals could have an unexpected benefit - preventing asthma in children.
A new study from the US compared the Amish with a similar community, the Hutterites, who use more modern farming methods.
Both groups have similar genetic ancestry and follow similar diets, but childhood asthma rates differ strongly.
About 5% of Amish schoolchildren tested in the study had asthma compared with 21.3% of the Hutterite children.
The study in the New England Journal of Medicine suggested that children's immune systems in the Amish community were being bolstered by house dust that contained more microbes from farm animals.
The findings echo other studies that have suggested that a lack of early exposure to microbes, caused by modern hygiene, increases the risk of allergy.
The dust found in Amish homes was "much richer in microbial products," the study said.
"Neither the Amish nor the Hutterites have dirty homes," said study co-author Carole Ober, professor and chairman of human genetics at the University of Chicago.
"Both are tidy. The Amish barns, however, are much closer to their homes. Their children run in and out of them, often barefoot, all day long. There's no obvious dirt in the Amish homes, no lapse of cleanliness. It's just in the air and in the dust."
Blood tests from 30 children from each community, aged seven to 14, showed that the Amish youngsters had more neutrophils - white blood cells crucial to fighting infections.
The study found the Amish children also had fewer blood cells that promote allergic inflammation, known as eosinophils.
Laboratory mice exposed to Amish house dust were also protected against asthma-like responses while similar experiments with dust from Hutterite homes gave no protection.
Report co-author Erika von Mutius, professor at the Dr von Hauner Children's Hospital in Munich, said it was hoped that the research could help future generations of children.
"We hope that our findings will allow the identification of relevant substances that will lead to completely novel strategies to prevent asthma and allergy," she said.
A large study from Sweden last year found that young children in a family with a pet dog were less likely to develop asthma.
The study, by JAMA Pediatrics, found that exposure to a dog in the first year of life was linked to a 13% lower risk of asthma in later childhood among the 650,000 children the authors tracked.
It also found that living on a farm with lots of animals seemed to confer even more protection.
Speaking at the time, lead scientist Prof Tove Fall, of Uppsala University in Sweden, said: "Our results confirmed the farming effect and we also saw that children who grew up with dogs had about 15% less asthma than children without dogs."
But she warned against getting a pet to try to cure an already allergic child.
"It won't work and will probably make the allergy worse," she said.

Summarize the provided section. | His body is to undergo tests to find out whether his death in Paris in 2004 was caused by poisoning.
Arafat's medical records say he had a stroke resulting from a blood disorder.
But France began a murder inquiry in August after Swiss experts working with a documentary crew found radioactive polonium-210 on Arafat's personal effects.
By Richard GalpinBBC News, Ramallah
The chief investigator Taufik al Tirawi said they had recently asked the Russians to take part in this investigation because they had "an historical relationship" with Moscow.
It seems the Palestinians do not fully trust France and Switzerland when it comes to proving or disproving that their former leader was murdered.
It is not known how long it will take the three countries to complete their tests. But it will be a key moment - and it is possible they will reach different conclusions.
While most Palestinians are certain their leader was murdered, there are serious questions about the validity of testing for polonium poisoning eight years after Mr Arafat's death. The half-life of polonium is less than five months.
His tomb, in Ramallah in the West Bank, was sealed off earlier this month.
Once the body is removed from the tomb inside the stone-clad tomb mausoleum, scientists from France, Switzerland and Russia will each take samples, former Palestinian intelligence chief Tawfik Tirawi told reporters.
The experts will then take these samples to their respective countries to be tested for Polonium 210 and possibly other lethal substances.
Arafat's body will be reburied the same day with military honours.
Arafat, who led the Palestine Liberation Organisation for 35 years and became the first president of the Palestinian Authority in 1996, fell violently ill in October 2004 at his compound.
Two weeks later he was flown to a French military hospital in Paris, where he died on 11 November 2004, aged 75.
His widow, Suha, objected to a post-mortem examination at the time, but later appealed to the Palestinian Authority to permit the exhumation "to reveal the truth".
Source: Al-Jazeera TV
Many Palestinians continue to believe that Israel poisoned him. Israel has denied any involvement. Others allege that he had Aids.
In 2005, the New York Times obtained a copy of Arafat's medical records, which it said showed he died of a massive haemorrhagic stroke that resulted from a bleeding disorder caused by an unknown infection.
Independent experts who reviewed the records told the paper that it was highly unlikely that he had died of Aids or had been poisoned.
A murder inquiry was launched by French prosecutors in August after an investigation by al-Jazeera TV, working with scientists at the Institute of Radiation Physics (IRA) at the University of Lausanne in Switzerland, found "significant" traces of polonium-210 present in samples taken from Arafat's personal effects, including his trademark keffiyeh headdress.
In some cases, the elevated levels were 10 times higher than those on control subjects, and most of the polonium could not have come from natural sources, the scientists said.
But the institute also said Arafat's symptoms - as described in medical reports - were not consistent with polonium poisoning.
The Eden Festival has raised concerns in the past about the policing costs at the Raehills Estate near Beattock.
It has now unveiled plans to stage The Lost Disco event in Tisno in August.
However, co-founder Adam Curtis insisted that the two festivals would complement one another and the Scottish event remained their top priority.
"The Eden Festival is very much a community festival - it has been built by more than me," he said.
"It is 300 to 400 of us that do it from the community and that is very hard to transport anywhere.
"The Eden Festival will always remain as our number one key objective."
He said the idea behind the Croatian event was to export one section of the south of Scotland festival.
"For the Lost Disco Festival what we have done is take our most popular stage at the Eden Festival which is the Lost Disco and take it abroad," he said.
"It is almost like taking part of the Eden Festival over the seas." | The body of Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat is to be exhumed on Tuesday, Palestinian officials say.

Can you write a short summary of this section? | Darryl Gittoes, 21, hit Mary Evans, 73, in Hereford city centre last July and she died in hospital nine days later, the Crown Prosecution Service said.
Gittoes, who pleaded guilty to causing bodily harm by wanton or furious driving, was jailed for 12 months.
The defendant, of Homestead, Hereford, was riding a defective bike recovered from a scrap metal lorry, the CPS said.
His bike was examined and found to have had no brakes, a deflated rear tyre, a cracked front tyre and no bell.
Gittoes was jailed at Worcester Crown Court on Monday following his guilty plea on 18 May.
The court heard he had been warned a number of times about riding his bike along Commercial Street, where a Traffic Regulation Order prohibits cycling between 10:30 and 16:30, including on the day before the collision.
Emily Lenham, senior crown prosecutor from West Midlands CPS, said: "Darryl Gittoes was fully aware that his bike was not in a roadworthy condition and he knew of the prohibitions which were in force along Commercial Street, however, on 30 July 2014 he disregarded the previous warning he had received from the police and rode his bicycle along this street and in doing so, he collided with Mary Evans, knocking her to the ground.
"Mrs Evans would later die due to the head injuries caused by the collision.
"This case clearly highlights the dangers of riding a cycle in a pedestrian area and the tragic consequences of Mr Gittoes' actions should serve as a reminder to cyclists to take heed of prohibitions in place within such areas, which are necessary to preserve the safety of pedestrians."
Vojtech Paloc, 40, failed to attend his trial in December but was convicted in his absence and jailed for nine-and-a-half years.
He was handed over to Avon and Somerset Police by Czech police on Friday to serve his sentence in the UK.
Det Con Haley Matthews said Paloc treated victims 'like commodities'.
A jury at Bristol Crown Court found him guilty of two counts of trafficking people into the UK for sexual exploitation, two counts of controlling prostitution for gain and one count of conspiracy to facilitate a breach of immigration law relating to a sham marriage.
He was convicted alongside Jiri Mizer, 33, of no fixed address, and Viera Sulcova, 39, from Gloucester, who were also jailed.
Det Con Matthews said: "[These were] appalling offences involving the exploitation of women who were trafficked and then forced to become sex workers in east Bristol.
"They were treated like commodities and one of the victims was told the only way she would be free would be to take part in a sham marriage.
"The control Paloc and his associates had over these women was frightening."

What is the brief summary of the provided content? | The 47-year-old has stepped up from his role as academy director until the end of the season following Paul Clement's sacking on Monday.
Wassall told BBC Radio Derby: "It's a massive privilege to take charge of the first team for the next 16 games.
"It's a brilliant opportunity, working at a brilliant club with brilliant players and brilliant people."
Wassall, who played for the Rams between 1992 and 1997 and has spent the last seven years on the coaching staff, added: "Anybody would be a fool not to want this job.
"Outside the Premier League there are not many better clubs, probably in the Premier League there are not many better clubs. Every man and his dog would want that job."

Give a brief summary of the following article. | Michael McNally, of Hillman Street in Belfast, was charged with stealing the cloths worth £78 from a souvenir shop in the city.
The court heard that McNally, 28, went into the Visit Belfast shop at 10:45 BST on Friday, lifted the items and left without offering payment.
McNally pleaded to the offence at Belfast Magistrates' Court on Saturday.
A defence solicitor told the court that shortly after McNally left the shop he was stopped by officers who spoke with him without any suspicions, but he told them: "I have stolen something - here you are."
The court was told that McNally had numerous convictions for theft and was in breach of a suspended sentence that had been imposed on 17 August for a similar matter.
The defence solicitor said McNally had stolen the tea towels "in an act of desperation" as he was hungry from sleeping rough the previous night.
The judge said he had granted McNally bail the day before the tea towel theft, and a condition of that bail was to stay away from the Visit Belfast shop.
He jailed McNally for two months and activated the suspended sentence to be served concurrently.
That could now change. Consumer Affairs Minister Ram Vilas Paswan tweeted on Monday that people could use their "discretion" on whether or not to pay the tip.
Twitter users have hailed the minister's announcement.
But an industry body said it would hit millions of workers.
Indians have been using social media to complain about restaurants which add a service charge to the overall bill.
The minister responded on Monday, telling people to pay the charge only when they were satisfied with the service.
Many on social media welcomed the announcement.
But others felt that government should completely abolish the service charge to avoid confusion or friction.
Restaurant owners, meanwhile, have criticised the minister's announcement, saying that it will affect industry workers.
Riyaaz Amlani, the president of the National Restaurant Association of India, told IANS news agency that the statement was "extremely detrimental to the employees", and would hit people's livelihoods.
"It is not just the owner but all the employees who are associated with a restaurant including the dishwasher, the caretaker, the toilet cleaner, all depend on service charge," he said.
Restaurants have also rejected allegations that they "pocket the service charge" and don't give it to their employees.

Former City minister Lord Myners will lead the review.
It comes ahead of a select committee report on the Royal Mail sale which is expected to be critical.
The review will look at recent UK private and public sector stock market listings which have seen significant rises or falls in share trading prices following flotation.
Business Secretary Vince Cable said the review would help him to "assess whether changes are needed to the current system government operates for the sale of its assets".
The review follows controversy over the £3.3bn privatisation of Royal Mail, where the government has been accused of selling off shares in the firm too cheaply.
The government initially priced Royal Mail shares at 330p each, but they have risen sharply since and are now trading at about 470p a share.
A report by the National Audit Office found that ministers in charge of the privatisation were too cautious when setting the sale price.
In April, Mr Cable insisted that the Royal Mail sale was "successful" and "the government achieved its objectives".
The review will examine:

Provide a concise overview of the following information. | Thai-based SSI took over the former Tata Steel complex in Redcar after it was mothballed in 2010.
But chief operating officer Cornelius Louwrens has warned that losses due to falling worldwide demand for the slab steel it produces cannot be sustained.
The company has invested about £1bn in reopening the Teesside blast furnace.
At full capacity the Redcar plant produces up to 400 slabs of steel a day, each weighing up to 33 tonnes.
Mr Louwrens said the price paid for slab steel had plummeted from $500 (£318) a tonne to below $300 (£191) over the past year.
He declined to put a figure on the plant's losses, but described them as "significant and substantial".
He said the long-term future of the Redcar site was in doubt, adding: "You cannot make this size of losses continuously, without, at some point, saying this cannot work any longer.
"What I cannot say is how long we have for the market to turn around. But my message to everyone is to focus on their jobs, do them as good as possible, because this is what we can control."
Mr Louwrens blamed a slump in demand for steel in China and Russia for the company's problems.
He added: "Throughout our rebirth, since SSI bought this, all the evidence is that the parent company in Thailand have been willing to invest.
"But this is really tough on them at the moment and they are continuing to stick with us and we can only hope and trust that will continue." | The boss of a Teesside steel plant employing more than 1,000 people has said its future is at risk because of plummeting world prices. |
What is the summary of the following document? | Chinese paper 21st Century Business Herald cited a former staff, identified by a pseudonym, as saying the firm paid out 30m yuan ($4.9m; £3.1m).
The claims come at a time when China is investigating some drugs firms over similar bribery allegations.
Lilly said it had launched an internal probe last year after a former manager made similar allegations against it.
"At the time of the allegations, we did an exhaustive investigation to search for any evidence of kickbacks," the firm said in a statement.
"Although we have not been able to verify these allegations, we take them seriously and we are continuing our investigation."
The company said it interviewed employees, monitored emails and audited expense reports as part of its internal probe.
However, it said it had not employed any sales managers by the name of Wang Wei, who was mentioned in the 21st Century Business Herald report.
Eli Lilly is the latest foreign drugmaker to be engulfed by such claims in China.
Earlier this week, a British risk consultant, Peter Humphrey, was formally arrested by Chinese authorities amid a continuing probe into pharmaceutical firms.
One of the firms being probed, UK drugs giant GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), is reportedly a former client of Mr Humphrey's firm, ChinaWhys.
Chinese authorities have accused GSK of directing up to £320m through travel agencies to facilitate bribes to doctors and officials.
GSK has said that some senior executives in its China office appeared to have broken the law and several GSK employees have also been detained over the last few weeks.
In July, Chinese police had visited the Shanghai office of UK firm AstraZeneca and took an employee in for questioning. | US drugmaker Eli Lilly has said it is "deeply concerned" by claims that it bribed doctors to prescribe its drugs. |
Can you summarize this content? | Mothers pay Kathryn Beale, 41, from Swindon, to blend an 8cm (3in) long piece of their fresh placenta with fruit and juices.
Her local council is concerned about hygiene standards but has failed to get court permission to halt the business.
Miss Beale said she operated safely and had voluntarily stopped until health inspectors could meet her.
"I understand that they have to make sure that all food business are running safely," said Miss Beale, a mother-of-two.
"I think they have been a bit overzealous in trying to shut me down without doing a full inspection. I believe that I do it safely."
She describes herself as a birth and postnatal doula, who runs support groups and is also an "IPEN-licensed placenta encapsulation specialist".
As well as the smoothies, the services also includes dehydrating placenta and grinding it into powder for capsules which can be swallowed later.
The encapsulation service costs £150, the smoothie is £20 extra and she also offers a £60-£80 service to set an umbilical cord in resin.
The placenta is an organ attached to the lining of the womb during pregnancy, and linked to the baby by the umbilical cord.
It passes oxygen and nutrients from the mother's blood supply to the baby.
Waste products from the baby, such as carbon dioxide, pass back along the umbilical cord to the placenta.
After the baby is born, more contractions will push the placenta out - or it will be lifted from the womb during a Caesarean.

Swindon Borough Council said its officers attended court on 10 March "seeking a hygiene emergency prohibition order in respect of raw human placenta practices" but the order was not granted.
"Our investigations continue and we are therefore unable to comment further at this stage."
It explained its action by saying the health benefits were not clear and the processes involved present a number of potentially serious health risks.
Miss Beale, who has been in the business for two years, said she had around two customers a month and added there were 50 people around the country offering similar services.
"There is no eating of anyone else's placenta. It is all quite tightly controlled, stored properly and chilled," she said.
"Everything has to be cleaned and sterilised and there is quite strict hygiene involved.
"I only prepare placenta smoothies when I am with the mother in her home or at her private hospital room because she needs to drink it straight away."

At the turn of the millennium, an estimated 72% of people in Northern Ireland were classed as home owners, either outright or with a mortgage.
Analysis by professional services firm PwC shows that by 2014 it had fallen to 65%.
By 2025, the figures are expected to drop further to 59%.
The flipside will see the private rental sector experience high growth.
There is a general trend away from home ownership across the UK, but in Northern Ireland it is becoming more pronounced.
PwC believes the reasons include relatively low levels of house building and "a lack of confidence in the market".
PwC chief economist Esmond Birnie said: "Add a young and mobile workforce who often prefer high-quality rental apartments to purchasing terraced properties and we are seeing a generation that perceives private renting as a real option to property ownership."
Home ownership in London is currently around 46% and in ten years' time, PwC predicts it will have dropped to 40%.

What is a brief summary of the information below? | The charity says that although all ages are at risk, many older people would not have been aware of how to protect themselves four decades ago.
Figures show that 5,700 over-65s are diagnosed with the condition each year, compared to just 600 in the mid-1970s.
The condition can often be prevented by covering up and avoiding sunburn.
Around 13,300 people are diagnosed with malignant melanoma - the most serious form of skin cancer - each year in the UK. And 2,100 lives are lost to the disease annually.
Numbers are increasing across all age groups but the steepest rise is seen in over-65s.
The charity said all ages are benefitting from public health messages explaining the dangers of holiday sun.
Sue Deans, a 69-year old mother of three, was first diagnosed with skin cancer in 2000 and again in 2007.
She said: "I was part of the generation when package holidays became affordable and you could go abroad nearly every year.
"I don't think there was much understanding at the time about the impact that too much sun can have on your risk of getting skin cancer.
"And I loved the sun but suffered quite a bit of sunburn over the years."
She spotted signs of her cancer early on and has had successful surgery, but remains vigilant for anything that might need further checks.
Professor Richard Marais of Cancer Research UK (CRUK), said: "It is worrying to see melanoma rates increasing at such a fast pace, and across all age groups.
"It is important people keep an eye on their skin and seek medical opinion if they see any changes to their moles or even to normal areas of skin.
"Melanoma is often detected on men's backs and women's legs but can appear on any part of the body."
Research suggests that getting sunburnt just once every two years can increase the odds of developing malignant melanoma.
Dr Julie Sharp, head of health information at CRUK, said: "You can burn at home just as easily as you can on holiday, so remember to spend time in the shade, wear a T-shirt and a hat to protect your skin and regularly apply sunscreen that is at least factor 15 and has four stars."
Johnathon Major, from the British Association of Dermatologists, said: "The increasing incidence of skin cancer within the UK is alarming.
"As people are living longer, more people are reaching an age where they are at a higher risk.
"Interest in package holidays and in fashion tanning are among the reasons that more people are developing skin cancer.
"But it's crucial to remember that you don't have to go on holiday or use a sun bed to heighten your risk. Skin cancers can develop as a result of both short-term and long-term overexposure to the sun's rays within the UK."

Write a brief summary of the document. | Australian utility back Marc Koteczky, 25, has agreed a new contract, having played 16 times for the club in the Championship last season.
He is joined by compatriot and former Australia Under-20s cap Ethan Ford.
Ford, who is English-qualified through his grandmother, can play at centre, wing or full-back and played alongside Koteczky at Sydney-based club Randwick.
"I'm looking forward to joining up with the Plymouth Albion squad and experiencing rugby in England," Ford said.
"I've heard a lot of good things about the club and the city. I know Marc well from Randwick, so it will be great to play alongside him again.
"I'm excited about the challenge that awaits."
Plymouth Albion were relegated from the Championship in April after 13 years in English rugby's second tier.
The 30-year-old had denied driving while more than twice the legal limit on 21 February.
The Scottish songwriter had used "the hip flask defence", which suggested he had drunk alcohol after he had driven.
A Scottish Police Authority forensic toxicologist had told the trial that "post-incident drinking" could increase alcohol readings.
During a two-day trial at Paisley Sheriff Court, witness Colin May told the court he saw Nutini driving after ordering vodka in DeBeers bar.
PC Laura Murray told the first day of the trial she was called to Canal Street towards midnight on 21 February to a report of a car being driven by someone who had allegedly been drinking.
The car was no longer there when they arrived but they went to an address where they found a grey Mini and Nutini, who they had been told was the driver of the vehicle.
After testing positive for alcohol following a breath test, Nutini was arrested and taken to Govan police station.
Asked whether he mentioned drinking after returning home, she said: "He said he had had a mouthful of wine at home and this later changed to saying he had a mouthful of whisky."
The court heard Nutini had a reading of 48 microgrammes of alcohol in 100ml of breath - more than double the 22mcg legal limit.
Giving evidence, forensic toxicologist Karen Kerr had told the court she did a number of calculations on the alcohol level in Nutini's system.
She explained the amount Nutini claimed he had drunk after driving would account for 31mcg.
She said: "It's saying, had post-incident drinking not taken place, the result would have been 17[mcg] - it's in terms of the hip flask defence.
"The 17 would've been caused by any other pre-incident drinking - drinking prior to the evidential result."
She said the results of the breath test did not fit with his claims about how much he had to drink on the night in question but she conceded he may have been fit to drive at the time he was driving.
"It is possible he would've been under the limit [22mcg] at the time of driving," she said.
"He could be as high as 36[mcg] or as low as 14[mcg].
"I couldn't get 48[mcg] to lie within the range, based on the stated pattern of drinking."
Sheriff Colin Pettigrew acquitted the musician and Nutini left the court without comment.
Nutini's debut album, These Streets, was released in 2006 and peaked at number three on the UK Albums Chart, while the follow-up, 2009's Sunny Side Up, debuted at number one.
Both albums were certified quintuple platinum and his third album, 2014-release Caustic Love, was also certified platinum after going to number one. | Plymouth Albion have made their first two signings as they prepare for life in National One.

Give a short summary of the provided document. | In the last week, supermarkets have cut prices by between 2p and 4p per litre.
Last month, diesel became, on average, cheaper than petrol for the first time since July 2001.
Petrol has also fallen in price this week, hitting 115.24p per litre on average, its lowest for three months.
Lower fuel prices have followed the falls in the price of oil.
This month, the price of a barrel of Brent Crude oil fell below $50 (£32) for the first time since January this year.
David Hunter, an energy industry analyst with Schneider Electric, told BBC Radio 5 live's Wake Up to Money programme that "faltering economic growth in resource-hungry countries like China is keeping a lid on demand for oil, while on the other hand there is a supply glut".
The International Energy Agency said that oil demand around the world is expanding at its fastest pace in five years thanks to rebounding economic growth and low prices, but global oversupply will last through to 2016.
Petrol averaged 106.4p per litre at the beginning of February, after the previous low levels in oil prices.
"The biggest factor for the future path of fuel prices remains the crude oil price - if it continues to fall, and sterling holds its value against the dollar, then further reductions at the pumps are possible," Mr Hunter said.
Diesel had been more expensive than petrol in the UK for 14 years, but its price is now falling more quickly than petrol.
Mr Hunter added: "Recently, Saudi Arabia has ramped up production of ultra-low sulphur diesel for export to Europe - resulting in steeper falls for diesel than petrol."
James Hookham, deputy chief executive of the Freight Transport Association, said the drop in prices may not last.
"We must highlight there is nothing sinister going on and prices could go up as quickly as they are falling," he said. "It is a very volatile market."
Britain's world heavyweight champion apologised last month for a video he posted online containing homophobic, sexist and anti-Semitic comments.
But ex-champion Klitschko, who fights Fury in Manchester on 9 July, said: "I was in shock at his statements.
"When he got to the Jewish people he sounded like Hitler. The man is an imbecile."
The 40-year-old Ukrainian, who lost to Fury in November to suffer his first defeat in 11 years, added: "We cannot have a champion like that. Either he needs to be shut up or shut down in the ring, or just suspended, because you cannot create more hate.
"I'm fighting a guy who can't hold his mouth on certain things."
The Campaign Against Antisemitism has also called for Fury to be banned and complained to the British Boxing Board of Control.
The undefeated 27-year-old, who took the WBA and WBO heavyweight titles from Klitschko in their first bout, later said he was sorry for causing offence and promised to improve his behaviour "as an ambassador of British boxing".
He was also criticised shortly after his victory over Klitschko last year, when comments on homosexuality, paedophilia and women saw more than 100,000 people sign an online petition seeking to have him removed from the BBC's 2015 Sports Personality of the Year shortlist.

Provide a brief summary for the information below. | Instead, an unidentified young man speaks in the name of "The army of the caliphate in West Africa".
Mr Shekau's absence from the video has fuelled speculation about his fate.
At least 13 people were killed on Tuesday in a bombing at a cattle market in Maiduguri city, a former Boko Haram stronghold in north-eastern Nigeria.
Latest African news updates
In the 10-minute video, the speaker dismisses as a lie the Nigerian military's assertion that it has recaptured all cities and towns from the militants.
He shows the identity cards of government troops he says have been killed, and the wreckage of what he describes as a jet that had been brought down.
BBC Nigeria analyst Naziru Mikailu says the video appears to be a genuine Boko Haram production.
The fact that it was issued under the banner of "The army of the caliphate in West Africa" reflects that the group is now allied with Islamic State (IS) militants fighting for a global caliphate, he says.
However, Mr Shekau's absence from the video, and the failure to mention him, is surprising, our correspondent adds.
It suggests a split in Boko Haram or one of three other possibilities:
The speaker, who was carrying a rifle and whose face was covered, said the video was shot in Sambisa, a vast forest surrounding a game reserve.
The group controlled the forest, and was running education projects - ranging from studies about Islam to technology - for people under its rule, he said.
Meanwhile, Red Cross officials said that at least 13 people were killed and 24 wounded in the latest bombing in Maiduguri, the biggest city in north-eastern Nigeria.
The bomb went off in the abattoir section of the cattle market.
Overnight the militants fired grenades at people's homes in Maiduguri, reports the BBC's Nigeria correspondent Will Ross.
Last Saturday, 29 people were killed in Maiduguri when a mosque was bombed.
Nigeria's new President Muhammadu Buhari, a Muslim, has described Boko Haram as "mindless" and "godless".
He said the military command centre would be relocated to Maiduguri and remain there until the group was completely subdued.
He is due to meet the presidents of neighbouring states later this week to improve the regional military offensive against the jihadists.

Can you summarize this passage? | Authorities said the terrorist cell was planning to carry out imminent attacks in the capital Kampala.
Nineteen people have been arrested and are being interrogated about their intentions, a police spokesman said.
Uganda has been on high alert since al-Shabab's leader, Ahmed Abdi Godane, was killed in a US air strike in Somalia earlier this month.
Last week, the US embassy in Kampala warned of possible revenge attacks against US targets in response to the air strike on 2 September.
On Sunday, the US lifted its warnings after saying it believed the "immediate threat of an al-Shabab attack has been effectively countered".
But Ugandan Information Minister Rose Namayanja urged the public to "remain vigilant" as authorities continue investigating the planned attack.
"The operation is still going on," Ms Namayanja said. "We just want to ensure that we exhaust all the leads so that there are no more terrorist cells."
Police said the suspected al-Shabab cell had been planning to carry out attacks in Kampala and other towns over the weekend.
"We are interrogating 19 to see what leads we get to help expand the investigation," police spokesman Fred Enanga told reporters.
He said the suspects had been found with "explosive materials related to acts of terror" and their intentions "were very, very clear."
The BBC's Catherine Byaruhanga says the suspects are believed to be foreigners.
Ugandan troops are part of the African Union force in Somalia, known as Amisom, that is fighting al-Shabab militants.
The government in Kampala said it had provided the US with key intelligence regarding Godane's movements ahead of the US strike.
Al-Shabab has vowed to retaliate for the death of its leader.
The Islamist group, which wants to overthrow the UN-backed government in Somalia, has since named Ahmad Umar as its new leader.
Its fighters were behind twin blasts that killed 76 football fans who were watching the World Cup final in Kampala in July 2010.
At the time, Godane said the attack was retribution for Uganda's deployment of troops as part of the AU force in Somalia. | Police in Uganda say they have seized large amounts of explosives during raids on suspected al-Shabab militants. |
Summarize the following excerpt. | The prime minister said the world could "not stand idly by" in the face of the "massive use" of banned weapons.
But any military action would have to be proportionate and legal, he added.
The Syrian government said it was not responsible and the US and others were using it as an excuse to attack it.
The UK is considering military options following last week's suspected attack, which is being investigated by the United Nations.
Mr Cameron said he believed that the Syrian government had the "motive and the opportunity" to use chemical weapons while the likelihood of opposition forces being the perpetrators was "vanishingly small".
"What we have seen in Syria are appalling scenes of death and suffering because of the use of chemical weapons by the Assad regime," he said. "I don't believe we can let that stand."
While there was no question of the UK and its allies seeking to alter the outcome of the military struggle in Syria, they must decide whether limited military action was needed to "deter and degrade the future use of chemical weapons".
By Clive ColemanLegal correspondent, BBC News
Analysis: Legal basis for action
Downing Street confirmed that the prime minister had spoken to President Barack Obama on Tuesday evening but said no decisions would be taken before a meeting of the National Security Council (NSC) on Wednesday.
The US has said there is "clear" evidence that President Bashar al-Assad's government was behind last week's attack on the outskirts of Damascus but Russia, a key ally of Syria, has questioned this.
US Defence Secretary Chuck Hagel said US forces were "ready to go" if given the order by President Obama but the facts of what had happened needed to be fully established before any decisions were taken.
A report on chemical weapons use being compiled by US intelligence would be published later this week, White House spokesman Jay Carney has said.
The Syrian authorities have blamed opposition fighters, with whom they have been involved in a civil war for more than two years.
UN weapons inspectors examined the scene of one of the alleged attacks on Monday - after being delayed by a sniper attack on their convoy - but on Tuesday postponed a second trip to rebel-held suburbs of Damascus until Wednesday because of safety fears.
After cutting short his holiday to deal with the crisis, the prime minister said the House of Commons Speaker, John Bercow, had granted his request for Parliament to be recalled from its summer recess four days early, and MPs would have the chance to vote on a "clear motion" of action.
Mr Cameron has held meetings with senior colleagues, including his deputy Nick Clegg and Foreign Secretary William Hague, ahead of a meeting of the NSC on Wednesday.
Mr Clegg, whose Liberal Democrats opposed the intervention in Iraq, said there would not be a "boots-on-the-ground invasion" of Syria.
He said: "The use of chemical weapons on men, women and children is a flagrant abuse of international law and if we stand idly by we set a very dangerous precedent."
He added that "any steps taken will have to be legal".
Labour leader Ed Miliband said there was a "lot of evidence" pointing to the past use of chemical weapons by the regime but any international response must be legally sound and be based on precise, achievable objectives.
It is understood the most likely military response to Wednesday's suspected chemical weapons attack would be a one-off or limited guided missile strikes on Syrian military targets fired from US Navy warships.
Thursday's Commons vote on the issue would not be legally binding but No 10 sources said the prime minister would listen to the will of Parliament amid concerns from MPs from all parties about the consequences of military intervention.
Although the Commons voted on UK military intervention in Iraq in 2003 and Libya in 2011, Mr Cameron has the final say on deploying troops in conflicts, using Royal Prerogative powers.
Conservative MP Richard Ottaway said many MPs felt they had been "misled" over Iraq and urged ministers to make any intelligence about the chemical attacks available to members of Parliament's Intelligence and Security Committee - which meets in private.
Meanwhile, General Lord Dannatt - until 2009 head of the British Army - said military action without UN backing would be "wrong", and called on the PM to "convince the British people that there is a clear case for intervention".
Moscow has warned that any foreign involvement in Syria without a UN mandate would be "a grave violation of international law".
The UN Security Council is made up of 15 states, including five permanent members - China, Russia, France, the US and the UK - who have the power to veto any resolution.
The Obama administration is reportedly studying the Nato-led military campaign against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in 1999 as a potential precedent for intervention without a specific UN mandate.
The US and UK supported more than 70 days of air strikes against the regime of Slobodan Milosevic - in the face of Russian opposition - to protect civilians from further attacks in Kosovo.
But Syria's foreign minister, Walim Moualem, said the US and its allies were using the alleged chemical attack as a pretext to intervene in the bitter conflict in the country and any "act of aggression" would strengthen the hand of radical elements linked to al-Qaeda. | David Cameron has said the alleged use of chemical weapons by the Syrian government is "morally indefensible" after he recalled Parliament to discuss responses to the crisis. |
Can you write a brief summary of this passage? | David Lee gave evidence during his trial Aberdeen Sheriff Court after the jury heard allegations that he exposed himself to ambulance co-workers.
He denies 15 charges said to have taken place between 2013 and 2015, involving five alleged victims.
The married father-of-one told the jury that he had slept with two of his co-workers who gave evidence against him.
He said his relationship with one of the women developed into "play fights and tickling" but he denied propositioning her for sex.
Mr Lee, 31, who is currently suspended from duty, has lodged a special defence claiming all activity was consensual.
Earlier the jury heard from a female ambulance technician who was mentored by Mr Lee in summer 2015.
The 26-year-old witness told the court that his behaviour changed after a couple of shifts together and he became "a bit sleazier and flirtatious".
"He was like a puppy that always needed attention," she said.
"He got some gloves down my top and asked if he could help get them back.
"I was exhausted. He said to me 'this is what you do to me' and pointed down at his crotch.
"He had an erection in the ambulance while he was driving. He just kept asking if I would touch it - saying that if I did then he'd leave me alone."
She said he then exposed himself.
During the same call-out to a patient's house in Banchory, Aberdeenshire, the witness said Lee attacked her in the back of the ambulance while she went to get her kit bag.
During cross examination, defence advocate David Moggach accused the witness of engaging in "flirtatious behaviour" with Mr Lee.
He said the sexual elements of her story "simply didn't happen" and that was why she had not reported the claims to managers until someone else voiced similar allegations about Lee's behaviour.
The woman replied: "That's a complete lie. I felt too intimated to come forward."
Mr Lee is alleged to have acted in a culpable and reckless manner towards women when they were behind the wheel of an ambulance.
The trial, before Sheriff Graeme Napier, continues.
The man was arrested in the Springfields area of Portadown after the murder of Michael and Majorie Cawdery on Friday.

Summarize the following piece. | It was discovered at the bottom of a wardrobe wrapped in a blanket after a science-fiction memorabilia collector died, Trevanion & Dean Auctioneers said.
The puppet was sold earlier at an auction in Whitchurch, Shropshire.
At its peak, the science-fiction series was attracting an audience of 100 million fans in 66 countries.
Thunderbirds, which was first aired on TV screens in 1965, told the story of the Tracy family who form a secret organisation dedicated to saving human life.
Auctioneer Christina Trevanion said the seller, the brother of the previous owner, had "looked and looked and looked" for the puppet after his brother's death, before finally finding it.
Asked why the puppet was hidden in a wardrobe, the auctioneer said: "I think [the man] was very precious about her.
"These things, if left out... would gather dust. Her wig is real hair. It would need constant cleaning.
"She was the absolute star of [the man's] collection."
She said plenty of replicas were made, but puppeteers on the 1960s TV series and leading UK puppet-makers had confirmed it as an original.
Ms Trevanion added that the "utterly unique" puppet from "an iconic series" had generated interest from the US, Japan and New Zealand ahead of the auction.
The auctioneer said: "People watched who were children in the 1960s. There was a generation which saw repeats in the 80s and 90s.
"Every single generation has very fond memories of Thunderbirds."
The Avon and Somerset and Wiltshire forces will form a "strategic alliance" in areas including IT, HR and administration.
Wiltshire's Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) said ruling out job cuts would be "foolish" but that the move did not herald a full merger.
Avon and Somerset's PCC said some sharing "could protect local policing".
Wiltshire and Swindon's Conservative PCC Angus Macpherson said he would be "very foolish" to rule out job cuts when millions of pounds in savings had to be found.
But he said it was "absolutely not" the forerunner to a full merger.
"There will be changes as we move forward...[but] I want to preserve the officers who respond to calls in Wiltshire and Swindon," Mr Macpherson said.
"That's what I'm absolutely committed to doing."
His Avon and Somerset counterpart, Sue Mountstevens, an Independent, said: "My job as PCC is that when we have cuts, [we] minimise the impact on local communities.
"By doing this collaboration...by saving money in back-office, in specialist functions,... we're trying to lessen the impact on our frontline."
On a visit to Somerset, the Prime Minister welcomed news that Avon and Somerset and Wiltshire police were going to work more closely together.
David Cameron said: "I would praise the police because they have had to take difficult decisions over the last few years.
"But crime in Somerset has fallen quite markedly, so the police have demonstrated that they can do more effectively with less and increase the percentage of officers on the front line."
Mike White, from the Wiltshire Police Federation, said "We do have concerns as to how this will effect our members and the impact the inevitable cuts in staffing that this will lead to.
"Ultimately cuts have consequences. We can only hope that this is a long-standing alliance and not the first step towards the disappearance of a historic and proud police force."
Since 2010, the 43 police forces in England and Wales have seen their budgets reduced by 20%.
Recently, the Avon and Somerset force sold off some of its police stations.
It has had to save £47m over the past four years and more cuts are expected.
