Summarize the following article: Anglesey council has granted outline planning permission for the 500-berth development at Newry beach. One opponent said it would destroy the beach, but a town councillor said the area needed progress. The developers say it will create 700 jobs, but one economics analyst described that forecast as optimistic. Prof Peter Midmore of Aberystwyth University said other development across the UK had delivered only half the proposed jobs, in the best case scenario. Prof Midmore said: "It's very, very difficult to argue against something that will definitely create jobs, but the problem is, I think with many developments - not just marinas - the predications of developers are very rarely tested." He said the level of jobs proposed and then actually created had "never been tested in the case of any marina in the UK". But he said at other similar developments, the best "have been around about half the predicted level". He also added that because of the affects on other parts of a town, in some cases, it could actually lead to fewer jobs in an area. Despite receiving eight petitions with more than 4,000 names and over 300 letters against the plans, the outline proposals were accepted by councillors on Anglesey at a meeting in Wednesday. The plans include: Eilian Williams, the solicitor representing the opponents said after the meeting: "It's not what I wanted, but it is what I expected. The economic argument is always a very forceful argument." But David Lloyd Williams, of the Newry Beach Residents Association, where the marina will be built, said: "It is absolutely ridiculous to attempt to build an aquatic housing estate on the Newry beach, which is frankly the only amenity in Holyhead. "It's the only convenience area which everybody enjoys. "What this scheme will lead to is the destruction of the Newry beach as we know it. "We already have a very good marina which has been trading now for about 12 years, and still after 12 years trading, half of the berths are not taken up. "Nobody denies the need for jobs in Holyhead, especially for young people, but this is not the way forward." However, Anne Kennedy, a town councillor for the ward, said she still supported the development. "I've always said that these decisions are taken by professional people, long discussions, forensic questioning - which is what we did in the chamber in Holyhead council," she said. "I was born and bred in that area and I don't give away my heritage lightly. "We mustn't forget that Stena owns all of the land and they are investing, effectively, in their own property. "With the lack of investment, nothing progresses, and that I'm afraid is the position with Newry beach at the moment. "We need additional investment."

Campaigners opposed to a new £100m marina development at Holyhead on Anglesey say they are disappointed by the go-ahead for the project.

Summarize the following article: He told the Financial Times the number of MPs making "noises off" about him was "relatively small". Mr Corbyn's surprise emergence as the frontrunner in the contest has sparked fears of a civil war between Labour's left and right wings. Alan Johnson - a leading figure on the right of the party - has urged calm. The former home secretary told the Daily Telegraph: "I just say to my colleagues who are plotting and planning or whatever… cool heads and steady hands. This was an election. "If Jeremy Corbyn emerges as the winner I would counsel anyone thinking of splitting or separating to think again," he added. The former Commons Speaker Lady Boothroyd added her voice to those warning against a Corbyn victory, telling The Guardian: "My old party is galloping towards the precipice. I urge it to heed the jagged rocks before it is too late." In other developments: In an interview with the Financial Times, Mr Corbyn set out his plans to break up Rupert Murdoch's media empire and tackle Britain's "gross inequalities" in pay. "I do think the salary levels and the bonus levels again have got to be looked at," he told the newspaper. "I am looking at the gap in every organisation between highest and lowest levels of pay." On the media, he said: "We need a media that is not controlled by a very small number of very big interests... Mr Murdoch should understand that we're very serious about diversity of media ownership and I hope he will understand that." Addressing fears that he will split the party if he wins, he said: "I don't think there is any appetite for people to walk away from the party." He said he appreciated that "only a relatively small number MPs" had nominated him but he added: "The number of MPs making 'noises off' at the moment is actually quite small". "A lot of MPs are looking to see what happens and what role they can fulfil." A former adviser to the Bank of England, David Blanchflower, was among 41 economists to sign a letter at the weekend backing Mr Corbyn's anti-austerity economic policies. Mr Burnham insisted in an interview with BBC London that only he could beat Mr Corbyn and offer the "credible" economic policies the party needed to win a general election. Asked about his reaction when Ed Miliband unveiled his widely ridiculed stone tablet inscribed with Labour pledges, he said: "It's hard to put that into words because that was a low point, there's no doubt about that. It felt like we'd lost the plot at that particular moment in time."

The Labour leadership contender Jeremy Corbyn has rejected claims by rival Yvette Cooper and other senior figures that he would split the party.

Summarize the following article: Joel Moon scored a first-half hat-trick as Leeds dominated from the start, with Matt Parcell, Ash Handley and Ryan Hall also crossing for 32-4 at half-time. Handley, Parcell and Rob Burrow completed braces after the break, while Stevie Ward, Liam Sutcliffe and Keith Galloway added further scores. Luke Creswell and Jarrad Stack ran in consolation tries for Barrow. The Raiders top the third tier having won all seven of their matches in the league this season, and they had managed 13 victories from 13 games in all competitions prior to Sunday's hammering by Leeds. But they were always well short against the 13-time winners, who also landed 20 points courtesy of Sutcliffe's boot. Rhinos are currently fourth in Super League with nine wins from 13 games. Leeds Rhinos: Golding, Briscoe, Handley, L. Sutcliffe, Hall, McGuire, Moon, Galloway, Parcell, Baldwinson, Ferres, Ward, Singleton. Replacements: Burrow, Cuthbertson, Jones-Buchanan, Mullally. Barrow Raiders: Fieldhouse, Cresswell, Morrow, Litherland, Fleming, Charnock, Ashall, Bullock, Mossop, Walker, D. Toal, Stack, Aspinwall. Replacements: Abram, Dawson, Duerden, Brennan. Referee: Jack Smith (RFL)

Leeds Rhinos reached the Challenge Cup quarter-finals with a thumping victory over League One side Barrow Raiders.

Summarize the following article: Eddie Bilbey, from Ripley in Derbyshire, died shortly after the bout in South Normanton on 24 March. His mother, Michelle Bilbey, described her son as "a beautiful, caring, honest, respectful and truly pure soul". A post-mortem examination has taken place but the cause of death will not be made public until May. Live updates and more from across the East Midlands "He was my confidante, my rock, my very best friend and my shopping partner," Mrs Bilbey said. "Boxing held the discipline and training ethics that he so enjoyed and I know people who don't understand the sport will slate it, but to us that knew him best, boxing did define him - it made him who he was. "He lived and breathed boxing; it was his life, his passion. It may be that that's where his life ended on Friday night but knowing Eddie as I do, he wouldn't have wanted it any other way." England Boxing, which sanctioned the East Midlands Youth Welterweight bout, is investigating the death.

The mother of a 17-year-old boy, who died after an amateur boxing match, has paid tribute to her "very best friend".

Summarize the following article: The home side added 119 to their overnight 341-5 before being bowled out for 460, as Barry McCarthy took 3-103. Mark Stoneman (38) and Keaton Jennings (40) gave Durham a solid start in reply and Borthwick reached 50 off 93 balls. But none of them could play a major innings and the visitors were 205-4 at stumps, still 255 behind. Yorkshire had to settle for four bonus points in the morning session after Graham Onions bowled a maiden to Steven Patterson with eight runs needed for the fifth. But Azeem Rafiq (45) and Jack Brooks (36) made useful runs to boost the total before Paul Collingwood bowled Brooks to end the innings. Stoneman was first to go when Durham batted, edging a catch to slip off Brooks, and Patterson ended in-form Jennings' hopes of another big score by having him caught behind. Both Jennings and Jack Burnham were dropped by Jake Lehmann and the latter survived to the close on 34 not out, but Tim Bresnan claimed a vital wicket by bowling former England team-mate Collingwood off the inside edge for six.

Scott Borthwick led Durham's resistance with 53 as title hopefuls Yorkshire kept the pressure on the visitors on day two at Headingley.

Summarize the following article: The first minister urged councils to accept the funding package on offer and work together in tackling low pay. Many councils have argued that the deal and council tax freeze will force them into making "draconian cuts". Ms Sturgeon made her plea as she addressed the SNP's first disabled members conference in Glasgow. Scotland's councils have until 9 February to respond to the Scottish government's funding package. On Friday, Cosla, the umbrella body for the most of the 32 councils, urged its members to reject it. Cosla argues that the funding package is smaller than forecast and, coupled with the government's continued council tax freeze, will force local authorities to make unacceptable cuts in jobs and services. Ms Sturgeon, however, said the deal included funding to maintain the council tax freeze and secure pupil teacher ratios. She said the government was also offering £250m to help with the integration of health and social care, including a commitment to pay the Living Wage of £8.25 an hour. She told the conference: "Our social care workers play an invaluable role in looking after the most vulnerable in our communities - and with an ageing population, it is more important than ever that we attract and retain the best staff by paying them a fair wage. "Both the SNP government and local authorities have a shared aspiration to see care workers paid a living wage, and that's why we have included funding to roll it out in our funding offer to councils." She added: "Delivering this landmark policy is a challenge for local government in the current financial circumstances - no-one is pretending otherwise. But the offer from the Scottish government will help meet that challenge. "By accepting the local government finance settlement, the SNP and Labour can work together to take a huge leap forward in tackling low pay in Scotland - and help to build a fairer Scotland." A Scottish Labour spokesman said: "Care workers should be paid a living wage and we will work with anyone to make that a reality. "The best way for this to be achieved is for the Scottish government to introduce a living wage for all public sector workers. Nicola Sturgeon had the chance to do this but has voted against it five times. "At the same time councils need to be properly funded so that services for disabled people, and others, can be properly protected. Nicola Sturgeon should explain how cutting hundreds of millions of pounds from the services the most vulnerable rely on will help deliver this." Elsewhere, Scottish Labour has unveiled proposals for a Warm Homes Act to help tackle fuel poverty. Leader Kezia Dugdale told party activists in Inverness the plan would "deliver the changes we need to see in planning and building regulations to tackle fuel poverty". Ms Dugdale said: "No family in Scotland should have to choose between heating and eating in 2016." She also claimed the Scottish government planned to cut the fuel poverty budget by £15m. About 845,000 households in Scotland - 35% of the total - were classed as living in fuel poverty last year, with 9.5% living in extreme fuel poverty, according to statistics published last month. The Scottish Liberal Democrats, meanwhile, claimed civil liberties were being slowly eroded under the SNP. Speaking at the party's north east of Scotland regional conference, leader Willie Rennie pledged to continue to stand up to the "illiberal" SNP after May's Holyrood election. Mr Rennie said only his party had effectively opposed the Scottish government on issues such as police stop-and-search, the abolition of corroboration and plans for an ID database. He added: "Too often we take our civil liberties for granted and under the SNP government they have been slowly degraded. "It has only been the effective campaigns run by the Liberal Democrats that has provided any form of opposition to their changes." Responding to Mr Rennie, an SNP spokesman said the Lib Dems had spent five years "propping up a Tory government which is now hell-bent on scrapping human rights legislation".

Nicola Sturgeon has defended the funding deal for Scottish councils - and called on them to implement the Living Wage for care workers.

Summarize the following article: The clubs will face one another home and away in September and early October in the West Country Challenge Cup. The tournament mirrors the being held by Leicester, Newcastle and Sale. The Premiership is with both Exeter and Gloucester staging matches at their home grounds. Gloucester will play their home games at Bristol's Memorial Stadium, so not to clash with the World Cup matches they are staging. "Each year you want to get your season off to a solid start and all that begins by having a worthwhile and meaningful set of opening fixtures," said Exeter boss Rob Baxter. "For us, the opportunity to play the likes of Bath and Gloucester - two of our biggest rivals in the Premiership - will not only give us a good gauge of where we lie heading into the new season, but it will also provide us with four very competitive fixtures."

Premiership clubs Exeter, Bath and Gloucester will play in a pre-season tournament during the 2015 World Cup.

Summarize the following article: Senator George Mitchell told The World This Weekend that the ability to cross the border was important. It contributed to "the stability that's developed over the past two decades". Changing that would have an adverse effect, he said. "I believe that the restoration of a militarised border with strict controls limiting traffic back and forth would have an adverse effect on relations within the island of Ireland," he said. "The ability to move back and forward across the border that has existed for the past several years has been very helpful in increasing commerce and also in reducing stereotypes on both sides. "I think that that would be a step backward for that to occur." Senator Mitchell , who was was President Bill Clinton's special envoy to Northern Ireland, said he did not want to prejudge any deal that may be done on the border, but he expressed optimism that the "constructive and thoughtful leaders on all sides" could reach an agreement that would "permit open access". Asked if Brexit was a breach of the Good Friday Agreement, Senator Mitchell said the deal "plainly contemplates the possibility of a vote under certain circumstances" that change Northern Ireland's constitutional position. "The agreement plainly provides that the political status of Northern Ireland can be determined or changed only through a vote - and it's the informed consent through a vote - of the people of Northern Ireland," he said. He added: "I'll leave those arguments to the people of Northern Ireland and the UK." Senator Mitchell also said Britain and Ireland's membership of the European Union had helped create the conditions for the peace process in Northern Ireland. "There can be no doubt that the presence of Ireland and the United Kingdom in the EU was a significant factor in leading both governments to reach the conclusion that if there was to be a resolution to the conflict in the North it had to be led and underpinned by a joint effort by the two governments," he said. "I think their being in the European Union for some years before that was a significant factor in the warming of what had been a very cold relationship."

The American senator who brokered the Good Friday Agreement has warned that border controls between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland would be a "step backwards" in the peace process.

Summarize the following article: The Objective Revision Evaluation Service software has been trained by Wikipedia editors to recognise the quality of an edit based on the language and context of the change. There are about half a million changes to Wikipedia articles every day. Editors and ordinary users will now be able to quickly check how likely it is a proposed alteration is "damaging". "This allows editors to triage them from the torrent of new edits and review them with increased scrutiny," the Wikimedia Foundation said in a blog. Other projects to engage artificial intelligence (AI) in the task of evaluating Wikipedia edits have not always been well received. Some, for instance, have automatically downgraded the input of new editors, which has been seen as problematic for well-intentioned newcomers. ORES aims to get around this by judging purely the content of an alteration. "The thing to note is it doesn't judge whether the facts that people are adding are actually true, because fact-checking is immensely difficult, it's looking at the quality," said Dr John Carroll, a computational linguist at the University of Sussex. "It should help a great deal with Wikipedia," he added. Dr Carroll own start-up, iLexir, provides software to automatically check the quality of written English in essays by foreign language students.

Wikipedia has launched a tool designed to automatically highlight low-quality edits to articles.

Summarize the following article: The Energy Networks Association said late on Christmas Day that 24,000 properties in the South and South East were still without power. Homes in the South East and South West had borne the brunt of the flooding, the Environment Agency added. Two severe flood warnings remain in place in Dorset where rain is forecast. The Environment Agency warning - meaning there is a danger to life - is still in place for Iford Bridge Home Park on the River Stour in Dorset, which police evacuated overnight. Liz Gaere, 48, was rescued from the residential development at around 07:00 GMT on Christmas morning. "We went out on our balcony and saw the flooding and saw the boats coming in," she said. Check if this is affecting your journey "They said to us 'do you want to come out, you've got five minutes'." A 79-year-old neighbour Pat Tapply added: "I have nothing apart from what I am standing in. I don't know if my home is flooded." People were also evacuated from the Beaulieu Garden Park Home in Christchurch, Dorset - where a severe flood warning is also in place. More rain is expected in the already flood-hit county overnight with 10mm forecast to fall. Tim Field from the Energy Networks Association (ENA) told the BBC the number of those without power was starting to come down but that it could be the end of the week before problems are resolved in heavily flooded areas in Kent, Sussex and Surrey. Leave had been cancelled and extra staff had been brought in to fix the problem, he said. From the BBC: Elsewhere: UK Power Networks, which supplies about eight million customers in the South East, says it arranged Christmas dinner for hundreds of those without power via a mobile catering facility, pubs, restaurants and hotels. Director of customer services, Matt Rudling, added: "Extra staff are on duty, many of whom have cancelled their leave to help with the repair effort or to join our additional call centres on Christmas Eve and today." Meanwhile, about 800 homes in the north of Scotland are still without power, mainly around the Banchory, Buchan and Aboyne areas in Aberdeenshire, and Forres and Fochabers in Elgin. Scottish Hydro Electric Power Distribution said it was hoped all properties would be reconnected on Christmas Day. Some of the worst disruption was felt at Gatwick Airport in West Sussex, where a power outage at the North terminal led to cancellations and delays on Christmas Eve. Gatwick Airport is now running a full service, but says all flights apart from those with British Airways will be departing from the South terminal. It also advises people to check with airlines before travelling. In other developments: Elsewhere, winds of up to 80mph caused disruption to Christmas Eve travel in Scotland, with the Northern and Western Isles hit by ferry and flight cancellations. There has also been heavy rain in Northern Ireland, while winds in Wales reached 78mph in Pembrey and 77mph in Aberdaron. More than 10 flood warnings remain in place across mainland Scotland, with high tide being accompanied by heavy rainfall. And yellow "be aware" warnings for high winds are in place for the Highlands and Islands, Orkney and Shetland. The Environment Agency (EA) still has close to 100 flood warnings in place for England and Wales - signifying that flooding is "expected". A yellow alert for heavy rain remains for the southern coastal counties of England. The agency's head of operations, David Jordan, told the BBC that officials were keeping a close eye on the Stour and the river flowing through Maidstone in Kent. Please send your pictures by: Email: [email protected] Text: 61124 Twitter: @BBC_HaveYourSay BBC Weather said winds and rain would ease across much of the UK on Wednesday evening, although heavy rain and gales are expected to pick up again at the end of the week. The next storm, expected to hit the UK on Thursday night into Friday, will not be as intense, but has the potential to cause disruption.

Some of those hit by power cuts over Christmas could be without electricity until the end of the week after storms left 1,000 homes in England flooded.

Summarize the following article: The National Training Federation for Wales (NTfW) said almost 9,000 fewer work schemes will be available for young people by next April. It said there was no slack in the apprenticeship programme to cut. But the Welsh government said it was "delivering one of the most successful apprenticeship programmes in Europe". The NTfW represents more than 100 firms and outlets providing work-based learning in Wales. The businesses have said the 8,857 fewer apprenticeships will be on offer by the end of 2015, a drop of 49%, according to the training body. NTfW's operations manager Jeff Protheroe said: "When you see the figures in black and white the only word to describe them is stark - 9,000 less apprentices than last year. "Our members have been left scratching their heads because there was no slack in the apprenticeship programme to cut. "It appears the government has received some bad advice. "There is a feeling that the Welsh government is taking learning providers for granted because it knows that the network has consistently delivered excellent results and responded to the needs of the Welsh government over the past decade." The organisation said it fears "even worse news is on the way" after being told ministers are planning a further £20m cut in apprenticeship programmes in March. Mr Protheroe added: "The irony of the situation is that the budget cuts coincide with a national media campaign by the Welsh government promoting apprenticeships. "Having created the demand for apprenticeships, the Welsh government is now unable to fulfil it." The Welsh government said that its apprenticeship programme had "exceeded all anticipated targets" over a two-year period. A spokesman said: "We have been open about the scale of the financial challenges we face. By 2015-16, the Welsh budget will be 10% lower in real terms than it was in 2010-11. "However, reductions in the funding for apprenticeships are not across the board. "We will direct our funding towards apprenticeships for those aged 16-24 as well as to higher level apprenticeships and traineeships."

Employers in Wales are likely to cut the number of apprentices they take on by almost half after ministers cut the budget by £7m, a trade body has warned.

Summarize the following article: 24 March 2015 Last updated at 06:43 GMT But food expert Doctor Radha Modgil has been explaining what effect junk food can have by taking Newsround reporter Ricky inside the human body. It's all part of Newsround's big food week where a survey of more than 1,400 children showed one out of three eat unhealthy foods like chocolate, crisps and take away more than three times a week. You can find out more about the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes on the Newsround website and send in any questions you have about food for Doctor Radha to answer.

With so many different foods out there it can be hard to know what's healthy and what's not.

Summarize the following article: The workers were not directly employed by the Forth Crossing Bridge Constructors, but had been hired via a sub-contractor. The raid took place on Monday. The workers are due to appear before Dunfermline Sheriff Court. Bridge officials said the project contractor had co-operated fully. Scotland's Economy Secretary Keith Brown has written to the Home Office to seek reassurance over the measures used to address the issue of illegal foreign workers. Mr Brown said: "It's important that the construction industry can responsibly provide the correct resource to support the delivery of our pipeline of infrastructure projects. "Across our projects contractors have assured us that they carry out all business and operations in such a manner as to fully comply with and meet all legislative requirements, including all relevant employment laws. "As such, it is standard policy to carry out checks to ensure that all direct employees and staff have the necessary and valid credentials as is required for them to be legitimately employed prior to their appointment. We have also received assurance that it is also a requirement that second tier subcontractors also meet these obligations." More than 10,000 people have worked on the bridge construction site since work was started in 2011. Responding to news of the arrests, the union UCATT said the incident was just one example of wider workplace abuses on the site. Steve Dillon, regional secretary of UCATT Scotland, said: "This flagship project is now operating like the wild West. Without a union convenor the site has no sheriff and this is inevitably going to increase the exploitation and mistreatment of workers."

Seven people working on the Queensferry Crossing have been arrested on suspicion of working illegally after an investigation by the Home Office.

Summarize the following article: Foreign Minister Wang Yi said that in exchange, the US and South Korea could halt annual joint military drills, which consistently infuriate the North. The appeal comes after North Korea test-launched four missiles on Monday, breaking international sanctions. In response, the US began rolling out a missile defence system in South Korea. Speaking on the sidelines of China's annual parliamentary meeting, Mr Wang said the Korean peninsula was like "two accelerating trains, coming toward each other with neither side willing to give way". "Are the two sides really ready for a head-on collision?" he asked. A mutual halt of military operations would be the first step towards easing tensions and reopening negotiations, he said. Three of the North Korean missiles came down inside Japan's exclusive economic zone (EEZ) on Monday, prompting Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and US President Donald Trump to say the region had entered "a new stage of threat". The UN Security Council earlier strongly condemned the launch in a unanimous statement, calling it a grave violation of North Korea's international obligations, which risked destabilising the region. The Council, which will meet later on Wednesday, also threatened to "take further significant measures" against North Korea, which could imply efforts to introduce a fresh round of sanctions. It is almost certainly not going to work. The US-South Korean joint exercises have been an annual fixture for the best part of two decades and North Korea's demands for the drills to be scrapped are always rebuffed. At a time when Pyongyang is believed to be inching ever closer to developing nuclear warheads, Washington and Seoul are more than ever unlikely to be in the market for a grand, symbolic gesture. So why would China join its neighbour's call for such a bargain? And why now? It may be that Wang Yi is conveying a genuine offer from Pyongyang and, in the role of an honest broker, is willing to give it a go however narrow the odds. Or perhaps by calling Washington's bluff over the military exercises - casting President Trump as a man unwilling to make compromises in the name of peace - China itself sees some strategic advantage. Meanwhile, the US has again sought to reassure Beijing over deployment of an extensive missile defence system in South Korea. The Terminal High-Altitude Area Defense system (Thaad) is designed to protect South Korea, and US troops based there, from North Korean missile attacks. The first elements of it were moved into place on Tuesday, hours after the North's latest launch. What impact will S Korea's expanded missile defence system have? 1. The enemy launches a missile 2. The Thaad radar system detects the launch, which is relayed to command and control 3. Thaad command and control instructs the launch of an interceptor missile 4. The interceptor missile is fired at the enemy projectile 5. The enemy projectile is destroyed in the terminal phase of flight The launcher trucks can hold up to eight interceptor missiles. The Thaad deployment, originally agreed under the Obama administration, is controversial. South Koreans living in areas which will host defence batteries are concerned they could become targets. China has said its radar capabilities go far beyond what is required for defence and represents an encroachment of US military power and that it will "resolutely take necessary measures to defend our own security interest". At a news briefing on Tuesday, State Department spokesman Mark Toner repeated US reassurances to China. He said the US had been "very clear in our conversations with China that this is not meant to be a threat, and is not a threat, to them or any other power in the region". The US was "actively engaged" with its regional partners, he said, to address North Korea's "continuing provocative behaviour and actions". Mr Toner said that North Korea would be discussed next week when Secretary of State Rex Tillerson makes his first official visits to South Korea, Japan and China.

China has proposed that North Korea suspend its tests of missile and nuclear technology to "defuse a looming crisis".

Summarize the following article: Argyle edged a cagey first half and almost scored on 43 minutes as Jimmy Spencer's looped effort hit the woodwork after Graham Carey had broken from midfield. The visitors broke the deadlock soon after the restart when David Fox's free-kick evaded everyone apart from Bradley, who diverted the ball into the top corner. Stevenage equalised just seven minutes later as Henry Cowans' low free-kick found Matthew Godden unmarked and his effort went in off Bradley from six yards. Boro - who have now lost three of their last four league games - were only level for four minutes as Bradley glanced in a header from Carey's free-kick. Stevenage had their chances to equalise during five minutes of injury time, with Jack King and Harry McKirdy going close, but Plymouth saw the game out to remain top of the table by five points.

Summarize the following article: Rail, Maritime and Transport (RMT) union members are set to hold a 24-hour strike from 17:00 BST on 4 June and a 48-hour strike from 17:00 BST on 9 June. On Thursday the union rejected a fresh pay offer by Network Rail. Both sides have been talking with conciliation service Acas since Friday. The workers, including signallers and maintenance staff, are also planning to ban overtime from 6-12 June. The RMT's 16,000 members at Network Rail work across the company's operations and maintenance departments. A planned strike over last week's bank holiday was suspended after Network Rail tabled a revised pay offer to workers. Network Rail originally offered a four-year deal of a single £500 payment followed by three years of rises in line with RPI inflation. But the revised offer was for two years, with a 1% rise this year, and a rise of about 1.4% next year. It was also established that there would be no compulsory redundancies for the duration of the agreement. Transport Secretary Patrick McLoughlin has previously said he considered strike action "unnecessary and unreasonable".

Talks aimed at averting a national strike by Network Rail workers in a dispute over pay have been adjourned until Monday.

Summarize the following article: The Scotland coach thinks that the French will be confident of their chances of winning the physical battle, and therefore the match, at Stade de France on Sunday. "They'll believe they can overpower us," said Cotter. "You can see that reflected in their team selection." While the Scots were starting their campaign with a home victory over Ireland, Sunday's hosts were losing narrowly to England at Twickenham. "They'll believe that this is the game that will set their Six Nations alight," said Cotter. "We've seen and heard noises coming out of their camp, so it's pretty clear what's coming: a big juggernaut is going to try to roll over the top of us." Scotland are going to Paris without Ryan Wilson, who is out of the team with an injured elbow. John Barclay steps into the back row in place of Wilson and the fit-again John Hardie - "hard to hold back and tearing the paddock up", according to the coach - comes in on the bench. Scotland will have three number sevens in their squad that can be classified as groundhogs on the floor - Barclay, Hamish Watson and Hardie. The change to the French team that Cotter referred to is the introduction of Bordeaux-Begles' Loann Goujon at blind-side instead of Damien Chouly. "Chouly is their line-out specialist, but Goujon's another ball-carrier, very similar to Louis Picamoles, so it's obvious how they are going to play," said the Scotland coach. "They're very heavy and powerful, very good going forward, but I want to see how they go when they have to go backwards. "Turning them round will be key to the game. We've got to push them backwards and, if we can do that and force errors out of them, we'll free up the game. We have to be smart." The hosts have a poor recent record in the championship and have lost their last three Tests, against Australia, New Zealand and England. However, all three defeats were by narrow margins. The French may not be a winning team, but there's a feeling that a new team is emerging and that better days lie ahead and beating Scotland is key to that progression. "They have a more confident mix now," said Cotter. "When French teams are looking for a win, everybody talks about their attack, but actually it's their defence that sets it alight. "They'll try to put a lot of speed and power into the game. They'll want to go harder and faster and try to make it as difficult for us as possible." Losing Wilson is an undoubted set-back given his work-rate around the field, but Barclay was hugely effective when appearing early in the second half against Ireland and the return of Hardie is a boost. "He looks great," said Cotter of the open-side. "Having his energy later in the game will be important against this team." The oft-stated stat of Scotland not having won in Paris since 1999 is one that Cotter's team is trying to wipe from the record books. "We want to make it a tussle," said the coach.

Vern Cotter says that a "juggernaut" is coming Scotland's way when they play the second match of their Six Nations campaign against France in Paris.

Summarize the following article: The England international had gone nine games without scoring and was a peripheral figure for much of Wednesday's game but sprang into life to finish Danny Drinkwater's superb cross with 17 minutes remaining in Spain. It was one of only two shots on target the Foxes produced during a game in which they were largely under the cosh and had trailed 2-0 in thanks to Pablo Sarabia's header and a close-range finish from Joaquin Correa for Sevilla. City's other hero was Kasper Schmeichel, who saved a Correa penalty with the score at 0-0 and made a number of other good saves. Sevilla also hit the post and bar had over 70% possession but will only take a slender lead to the King Power Stadium for the second leg on 14 March. Media playback is not supported on this device Amidst Leicester's dire domestic form, which has seen them lose 14 league games already, including their last five, and exit the FA Cup at the hands of League One Millwall, their Champions League displays have acted as timely reminders of last season's stunning Premier League title success. And there will have been none more timely than this. Prior to the game, manager Claudio Ranieri suggested a positive display could act as a turning point for their season, and while they were outclassed for long periods, the rediscovery of a stubbornness and spirit could prove crucial not just for this tie but the rest of the campaign. The tie looked to be over after Correa's calm close-range finish in the second half had doubled the lead given to the home side by Sarabia's powerful, pinpoint header before the break. But with less than a quarter of the game to go, Drinkwater produced Leicester's one incisive attacking ball of the night to find Vardy, whose run into space behind his marker and first-time finish bore all the instinctual qualities he showed so often last season. Vardy's goal not only keeps the tie alive but offers hope to Leicester that he can return to form and fire them to Premier League safety. His goal-drought, following the hat-trick against Manchester City on 10 December, coincided with a nine-game winless streak for the Foxes that has left them just a point and a place above the relegation zone. The 30-year-old managed just 25 touches in total on Wednesday, but he made the one that mattered - his only shot on goal - count. Jorge Sampaoli's Sevilla side justified their position as La Liga title challengers with a dominant display that lacked only a goal-tally to match. Schmeichel can take much of the credit for that and following his penalty save, he showed superb awareness and reflexes to tip away shots from Sergio Escudero and Correa. City were also indebted to the woodwork, with the post denying Vitolo from a tight angle and the bar halting Adil Rami's late header. Leicester manager Claudio Ranieri: "We knew they are better than us, they have high quality in possession. We suffered. They showed their quality but we showed our heart. We showed belief and never game up. That makes me satisfied. "Kasper Schmeichel and everybody had a good game. Kasper saved the penalty and gave lot of support to his defenders. "For us, it is important to continue to show our performance and our football." Sevilla manager Jorge Sampaoli: "It is difficult to imagine such a big difference [between the sides] in a Champions League game. "I am happy with how the game went because we had chances, but disappointed with the result because we deserved more."

Summarize the following article: The Argentine actress spoke about Noah's recovery at a press conference for her latest film in Buenos Aires. She said: "When things like those that happened to us occur, your take on life changes. It happened to us. Now I value life much more, the now and the today. "Thank God, my son is well." She also thanked the public for their support. "I want them to know that they reached us and that it helped us a lot to come through this. "It's difficult for me to speak about this. It's very recent and I'm still a bit sensitive about the subject. "But the love is daily, when people stop me in the street. It's wonderful to know that you're accompanied in life and that people love you." She and Buble recently returned to her homeland after Noah received treatment in the US. Buble and Lopilato put their careers on hold when Noah was diagnosed. But the 29-year-old said seeing Noah "grow and being happy" had given her the strength to finish the film, titled Those Who Love, Hate. Lopilato, who also has a one-year-old son, Elias, with her husband, added: "We are looking forward to thinking about the future, to seeing our children grow."

Summarize the following article: Since February, Jean-Honore Fragonard's 18th Century work Young Woman has been replaced by a $120 (£70) counterfeit, produced in China. The public was asked whether it could identify the fake amongst the permanent collection of 270 Old Master paintings. Nearly 3,000 visitors cast a vote, but only 10% guessed correctly. The original will be put back in its frame on Tuesday and hung beside the replica, allowing people to compare the stylistic and material differences between the two. Conceptual artist Doug Fishbone came up with the idea, selecting the original work and commissioning the copy from one of China's numerous exporters of handmade oil paintings. The painting was made by the Meishing Oil Painting Manufacture Company, where 150 artists, many of them art students, make copies of Old Masters - including Picasso, Matisse, Van Gogh and Monet - to order for clients across the world. According to its website, the company "can reproduce various kinds of famous oil paintings in the world in enormous quantities such as impressionist, modern painting, scenery, seascape, still life, animal, pop art, abstract, classical, group paintings, reproduction oil painting, commerce oil painting, custom portrait oil painting and so on". Strictly speaking, the works are not fakes, since the studio is careful to change the size slightly from the originals. Dulwich Picture Gallery was the first purpose-built public art gallery in England when it opened its doors in the south London suburb in 1811. Chief curator Dr Xavier Bray said attendance had quadrupled during the last two months. "Never before have I seen so many people actively looking at each painting," he said. "Now Fragonard's portrait of a young woman has returned to the gallery walls and hangs alongside its modern companion. The visual exercise of comparing and contrasting will demonstrate how exciting it is to engage with an original work of art, but also marvel at the skill of a modern copyist working 5,000 miles away." Speaking at the launch of the project, Fishbone said his experiment would raise questions about the nature and importance of an original work versus a replica. "In the West, we see replicas as very problematic, as 'fakes' perhaps, whereas in China the notion of copying cultural artefacts is seen totally differently," he said. Having seen the project through, he called visitors' responses "intriguing and eye-opening". "I'm no conspiracy theorist, but if it leaves viewers with a healthy suspicion that what is presented to them may not be what it seems, and that our experiences can be manipulated in ways we are unaware of or cannot detect, it will have done something quite interesting."

The identity of a replica painting which was hung at Dulwich Picture Gallery as part of a "spot-the-fake" challenge has been revealed.

Summarize the following article: About 100 million years ago, the oceans warmed up, polar ice melted and sea levels rose to unprecedented heights. Scientists say the ichthyosaurs, or "fish lizards", could not adapt to the new conditions, spelling their demise. The research is the latest twist in the mystery of how and why the predators disappeared. Evidence suggests their extinction about 100 million years ago was driven by intense climate change and their inability to adapt to the changing world. "Our results support a growing body of evidence revealing that rising sea levels and sea temperatures profoundly reorganised marine ecosystems about 100 million years ago," said lead researcher Dr Valentin Fischer of the University of Liège, Belgium, and the University of Oxford, UK. "The ichthyosaurs were unable to adapt. They were evolving very slowly during the last 50 million years of their reign. "When the environment changed very rapidly they couldn't keep up with this change." During the age of the dinosaurs, the ocean was home to many types of ichthyosaur. The marine predators evolved a streamlined body like a dolphin and were built for speed, feeding on fish and squid. Ichthyosaurs endured for millions of years. They appeared in the Triassic, reached their peak in the Jurassic, then disappeared in the Cretaceous - several million years before the last dinosaurs died out. Past explanations for their disappearance have focussed on their food supply, which may have dwindled as other marine animals such as sharks and bony fishes appeared. The researchers - from the UK, Belgium, France and Russia - think this was just one factor in the animal's demise. After drawing up a detailed family tree of the evolution of ichthyosaurs and analysing the causes of their extinction, they believe many factors were to blame. "Although the rising temperatures and sea levels evidenced in rock records throughout the world may not directly have affected ichthyosaurs, related factors such as changes in food availability, migratory routes, competitors and birthing places are all potential drivers, probably occurring in conjunction to drive ichthyosaurs to extinction," Dr Fischer added. Dr David Martill of the University of Portsmouth, who was not involved with the study, said the move to a "super greenhouse world" would have had a huge impact on the habitats of animals on land and in the sea. Ichthyosaurs shared the ocean with other great groups of large marine reptiles such as the plesiosaurs and mosasaurs, however, which managed to outlive them. "They [the ichthyosaurs] just disappear while a lot of animals living alongside did alright," Dr Martill told BBC News. "Some mysterious thing was involved. I think it's still an enigma." The famous fossil hunter Mary Anning discovered the first complete fossil of an ichthyosaur in the cliffs near Lyme Regis, Dorset, in 1810. Her discovery shook up the scientific world and provided evidence for new ideas about the history of the Earth. Follow Helen on Twitter.

A dramatic shift in the Earth's climate killed off marine reptiles that swam at the time of the dinosaurs, according to a new study.

Summarize the following article: A family spokesman made the announcement late on Sunday night. Sir Gerald had been an MP in the North West since 1970 and became the oldest serving member of the Commons in 2015. Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn led tributes, calling him an "iconic and irascible figure". Former leader Ed Miliband said he was "an outstanding servant of the Labour movement". Mr Miliband added: "His principles, values and friendship will be sorely missed." Sir Gerald was a junior minister between 1974 and 1979, and held a number of senior shadow cabinet posts through the 1980s. He famously called the Labour Party's left-wing 1983 election manifesto "the longest suicide note in history" and returned to the backbenches in the early 1990s.

Sir Gerald Kaufman, Labour MP for Manchester Gorton and Father of The House of Commons, has died aged 86.

Summarize the following article: Robert Mueller has come under attacks recently, with the Speaker of the House casting doubts over his credibility. Trump advocate Newt Gingrich urged the president to "rethink" Mr Mueller's position. A close friend said Mr Trump saw firing him as an option, but the White House said both never discussed this issue. Mr Mueller, who was tasked by Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein with overseeing the justice department's investigation, has started selecting members of his team, many of them criminal law experts. If confirmed, his dismissal could have explosive implications and renew criticism of Mr Trump, who has been under intense pressure following his firing of James Comey as FBI director, and accusations that he might have tried to obstruct the investigation. The very appointment of Mr Mueller only happened after calls for such a move sparked by Mr Comey's firing. Mr Trump considers the inquiry a "witch hunt". The latest appointments from Robert Mueller's special counsel investigation could be a more ominous indication of trouble on the horizon for the Trump administration. The hires could be an indication of the direction of the probe and the seriousness with which Mr Mueller is taking the enterprise. Donald Trump has called the ongoing investigation a "witch hunt", a "hoax" and an excuse by Democrats for why they lost the presidential race. Mr Mueller's moves, however, indicate he does not share Mr Trump's view. He's assembling a team built for the long haul, with the talent and experience to take cases to trial and, if necessary, send people to prison. So far, Mr Trump has only directed his criticism at former FBI Director James Comey. It may only be a matter of time before some of that attention is directed at Mr Mueller, however. Read more from Anthony Mr Mueller's appointment was initially praised by both Republicans and Democrats, but some influential conservatives have intensified their attacks, openly defending his dismissal. Prominent radio host Mark Levin wrote on Facebook that "Mueller must step aside", while commentator Ann Coulter said there was no point in keeping him after Mr Comey confirmed that Mr Trump was not under investigation. She said on Twitter: "Why do we need a special counsel now?" Meanwhile, Mr Gingrich, also on Twitter, said: "Republicans are delusional if they think the special counsel is going to be fair. Look who he is hiring." Mr Trump does not have the authority to dismiss Mr Mueller, and he would have to ask Mr Rosenstein, who appointed the special counsel, to do so. This would evoke memories of the "Saturday Night Massacre" of 1973, when President Richard Nixon sought to dismiss a special prosecutor. But a long-time friend of Mr Trump said the president was considering sacking Mr Mueller. Christopher Ruddy, chief executive of conservative group Newsmax Media, Mr Ruddy was at the White House on Monday, but US media reported that he did not meet Mr Trump while there. In an interview with PBS Newshour, he said: "I think he is considering, perhaps, terminating the special counsel." "I think he's weighing that option," he added, saying there were concerns about conflicts of interest, including Mr Mueller's interview to replace Mr Comey at the FBI and his law firm, which represents members of Trump family. But he said: "I personally think it would be a very significant mistake." Hours after the interview, White House spokesman Sean Spicer did not deny the claim, but said: "Mr Ruddy never spoke to the president regarding this issue. With respect to this subject, only the president or his attorneys are authorised to comment."

Conservative allies are adding pressure on the special counsel overseeing the investigation into alleged Russian interference in last year's election.

Summarize the following article: On Friday it was made public the 2 Sisters factory in the Anglesey town is considering cutting an entire shift. The company employs about 800 people at the chicken processing facility. One union official described morale as "very very low", saying it is now feared 200 agency jobs could be lost along with about 116 employees. The 2 Sisters Food Group bought the factory from Dutch firm Vion in March 2013, and three months later announced it needed to increase production with an extra shift, bringing in an additional 300 posts. Paddy McNaught, the regional organiser for Unite, said the company was planning to cut production at the factory. "It's not been very promising news," he said following the meeting. "I think the company today have clarified the situation slightly in terms of numbers. "We still believe we're looking at potentially over 300 people will be taken out of this business here at Llangefni. "We've got somewhere in the region of 201 agency workers, as we believe it of today, and those will be going, plus a further 116 direct employees." The company confirmed on Friday some roles were at risk of redundancy as it looked to "simplify" its business to sustain the quality of its products.

Union leaders have held a four hour meeting with managers at a Llangefni poultry plant amid fears over 300 jobs could be axed.

Summarize the following article: The 63-year-old ex-youth coach at Crewe Alexandra faces allegations relating to a boy between 1981 and 1982. The Crown Prosecution Service said the charges followed an investigation by Cheshire Police. Mr Bennell, who also had links to Manchester City and Stoke City, will appear via video link at South Cheshire Magistrates' Court on 13 March. He is accused of four counts of indecent assault on a boy aged 11 to 12 years. Earlier this week he was charged with eight counts of historical child sexual abuse - two counts of indecent assault on a boy aged under 14, indecent assault on a boy aged under 16, and five other offences. Mr Bennell previously appeared in court in January charged with eight separate offences of sexual assault against a boy aged under 16, between 1981 and 1986. He pleaded not guilty at Chester Crown Court and was remanded in custody until a further hearing on 20 March.

Former football coach Barry Bennell has been charged with four more counts of historical child sexual abuse.

Summarize the following article: Figures from the Health and Social Care Information Centre show nearly 40,000 were admitted in 2012/13, a rise of 58% from 10 years ago. Cliff Mann is one of the UK's most senior A&E doctors and says pre-loading is a major factor in the increase. He told Newsbeat it's now becoming a "dangerous epidemic". Government figures estimate the annual cost of alcohol to the NHS at £3.7bn and around £21bn to the wider society. Mann is president of the College of Emergency Medicine which represents A&E Doctors and says pre-loading is the biggest behavioural change in drinking in the last decade. "The real danger with pre-loading is that overall people drink far more in one evening, and drinking to that excess means it's much more likely they'll suffer the harmful consequences of alcohol," he said. "In the short term they're that much more drunk, they're that much more likely to be ill or injure themselves and they're also much more likely to suffer long-term effects." Friends Lewis Foster and Andreas Nichola, both 22 and from Northampton, don't think it's a problem. On nearly every night out they and their friends begin with a couple of cases of cheap, supermarket beer and wine at home. Lewis says they usually meet up at around 8pm and don't head out until around 11pm. "It's a lot cheaper to do that than to go down to the pub all the time, so instead of say, once a month, we can meet up once a week. "We want to save money to go to Glastonbury and things like that. "You need to save money. You can't be spending half a Glastonbury fee on a night out in town." Andreas agrees: "It's just easier, we all live in the same area, we can share cabs... and as long as you're sensible about it there are no worries. "[Pre-loading is] more sociable because you've got your close mates around you and you can spend £10 here and £50 out in a pub." It's not always that simple though. Another of their friends, Greg Walding, admits sometimes it can be easy to drink too much. "I have maybe four or five pints before I go out, then another four or five when I'm out. "You can get a bit too drunk but it just saves money." But Cliff Mann has no doubt that alcohol abuse is a serious problem and he wants to see minimum unit pricing introduced to try to tackle it. The Scottish Government has already done that but it's being challenged in the courts so hasn't come into effect yet. Politicians in Westminster are now waiting to see the outcome of that court case before making a decision about whether or not to introduce it in England and Wales. In the meantime they have stopped supermarkets from selling below cost alcohol and stopped manufacturers from making super strength beers and ciders.

Summarize the following article: They are the lifetime collection of broadcaster Gyles Brandreth and his wife, Michele Brown. The Brandreth Bear collection could "keep on growing" at Newby Hall, Mr Brandreth said. It was previously held at the former Teddy Bear Museum in Stratford-on-Avon. The bears will be on permanent display in a new purpose-built Bear House at Newby Hall. The collection includes Fozzie from The Muppet Show, Children in Need's Pudsey Bear, Superted and Winnie the Pooh. Mr Brandreth said there were plans to put on plays. The collection also features teddy companions of the rich and famous. Newby Hall near Ripon was built by Sir Christopher Wren in the 1690s and is thought to be one of Britain's finest examples of Adam-style architecture. Last May, a permanent collection of 65 dolls houses was installed in Newby Hall's potting sheds.

A collection of 1,000 teddy bears, including Sooty and the original Paddington Bear, has moved to a permanent home at Newby Hall in North Yorkshire.

Summarize the following article: The Irish author, who won the £50,000 prize in 2007, is longlisted for her sixth novel, The Green Road. Three Britons - Tom McCarthy, Andrew O'Hagan and Sunjeev Sahota - make the longlist alongside five Americans. Novelists from India, Jamaica, New Zealand and Nigeria round out this year's list of candidates. A shortlist of six will be unveiled on 15 September, with the overall winner to be announced on 13 October. Australian author Richard Flanagan won last year's prize for his wartime novel The Narrow Road to the Deep North. The longlist of authors and titles is as follows: Clegg, Obioma and Smaill have all been longlisted for their debut novels, while McCarthy and O'Hagan have both been shortlisted before. This year's prize continues the policy introduced last year of allowing all authors writing in English, regardless of nationality, to be considered for the award. Before 2014, the prize - first presented in 1969 - was only open to authors from the UK and the Commonwealth, the Republic of Ireland and Zimbabwe. Marlon James is the first Jamaican-born author to be nominated for the prize, while Laila Lalami is the first longlisted author to be born in Morocco. Both writers are currently based in the US, the former in Minneapolis and the latter in Santa Monica. Author and broadcaster Michael Wood, chair of this year's judges, said submissions were so "extraordinary... the longlist could have been twice as long". "The range of different performances and forms of these novels is amazing," he continued. "All of them do something exciting with the language they have chosen to use." Dublin-born Enright was considered an outsider when The Gathering, her fourth novel, won the 2007 prize, beating such titles as Ian McEwan's On Chesil Beach and Mohsin Hamid's The Reluctant Fundamentalist.

The 13 books longlisted for this year's Man Booker Prize have been announced, with previous winner Anne Enright among those in contention.

Summarize the following article: Sundowns lost 1-0 against Zamalek in Egypt on Sunday but triumphed 3-1 on aggregate as 'the Brazilians' raised their first continental title of any kind. In addition to winning $1.5m for claiming the trophy, the Pretoria-based side will also now represent Africa at December's Fifa Club World Cup. "To come to Egypt and raise the trophy, I don't think there's any sweeter way to lift it," Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane told the Confederation of African Football website. Mosimane, who coached South Africa's national team from 2010 to 2012, is the first South African to lead a Champions League-winning side. When Orlando Pirates won in 1995, the only previous time a South African team had triumphed, the Johannesburg side was led by a Scottish and Zambian coaching duo. South Africa's Sports Minister Fikile Mbalula was in attendance at the game in Alexandria, and he believes Sundowns' victory will inspire their league rivals to take the competition more seriously. "It is important for southern Africa and for South Africa," Mbalula told BBC Sport. "It's a really important achievement because in this competition, the dominance has (traditionally) been in North Africa. I think Sundowns have made it big for us - we are very excited. "We, the government, have always said that clubs must take the competition seriously, so this is very important." On Monday, both the South African government and President Jacob Zuma sent out congratulatory messages to Sundowns through their Twitter accounts. The team's success was made all the sweeter given that Sundowns had been knocked out of the Champions League by DR Congo's AS Vita in a preliminary round. Sundowns dropped into the second-tier Confederation Cup from which they were also eliminated, only to earn a sensational reprieve to the Champions League after Vita were disqualified in May for fielding an ineligible player. "It's a miracle," Sundowns goalkeeper Dennis Onyango told BBC Sport. "We've suffered a lot. When we were given a chance, it was our time to show what we can do. The guys have proved (the doubters) wrong. We've won it at last." Sundowns, who are owned by billionaire mining magnate Patrice Motsepe, will now contest December's Fifa Club World Cup in Japan. They will be the first South African team to do so since the tournament started in 2000, five years after Pirates' win. "To club Motsepe and coach Mosimane, I would like to say you deserve all the accolades and you truly led from the front," said South African FA President Danny Jordaan in a statement. "This is a historical first for a South African club to qualify for the prestigious Fifa Club World Cup." "I want to wish Sundowns all the best in their next assignment and I am confident they are up to the challenge. They showed their tenacity and technical know-how in overcoming Zamalek over the two legs." "This victory will serve South African football very well and will help in building a competitive Bafana Bafana side. South Africa stands tall on the African continent once again. Well done." The Fifa Club World Cup, which features the champions of each continent, including Uefa Champions League winners Real Madrid, will take place between 8-18 December.

Mamelodi Sundowns are the toast of South Africa after becoming only the second club from the country to ever win the African Champions League.

Summarize the following article: Noxolo Nkosana, 23, is the latest victim of a series of violent attacks against lesbians. She was stabbed a stone's throw from her home in Crossroads township, Cape Town, as she returned from work one evening with her girlfriend. The two men - one of whom lives in her community - started yelling insults. "They were walking behind us. They just started swearing at me screaming: 'Hey you lesbian, you tomboy, we'll show you,'" Ms Nkosana tells the BBC. Before she knew it a sharp knife had entered her back - two fast jabs, then she was on the ground. Half conscious, she felt the knife sink into her skin twice more. "I was sure that they were going to kill me," she says. Many lesbians have died in such attacks - 31 in the last 10 years, it is reported. In April, Noxolo Nogwaza was raped by eight men and murdered in KwaThema township near Johannesburg. The 24-year-old's face and head were disfigured by stoning, and she was stabbed several times with broken glass. The attack on her is thought to have begun as a case of what is known as "corrective rape", in which men rape lesbians in what they see as an attempt to "correct" their sexual orientation. The practice appears to be on the increase in South Africa. More than 10 lesbians per week are raped or gang-raped in Cape Town alone, according to Luleki Sizwe, a charity which helps women who have been raped in the Western Cape. Many of the cases are not reported because the victims are afraid that the police will laugh at them, or that their attackers will come after them, says Ndumie Funda, founder of Luleki Sizwe. "Many of them just suffer in silence," she says. "The cases people read about in the media are not even the tip of the iceberg. Lesbians are under attack in South Africa's townships every day." Reports of police ridiculing rape victims abound in the gay community. "Some policemen in the township mock you saying: 'How can you be raped by a man if you are not attracted to them?' They ask you to explain how the rape felt. It is humiliating," says Thando Sibiya, a lesbian from Soweto. She says she knows two people who reported rapes but then dropped their cases because of their treatment by the police. Some trace the root of the problem to pockets of traditional African society that have not accepted homosexuality - especially among women. "African societies are still very patriarchal. Women are taught that they should marry men, anything outside of that is viewed as wrong," says Lesego Tlhwale from African gay rights group Behind the Mask. "It is seen as un-African for two women to marry. Some men are threatened by this and then want to 'fix' it," she adds. She notes that the women who have been killed in South Africa so far have been described as "butch lesbians" - a slang term used to describe lesbians with a masculine or manly appearance. "They are threatened by these kinds of lesbians in particular. They say they are stealing their girlfriends. It is a warped sense of entitlement and a need to protect their manhood." South Africa is the only African country to have legalised homosexual marriage, and one of only 10 in the world. The constitution specifically forbids discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation. But on the ground, prejudice remains common. On the streets of Johannesburg, it is easy to find men who support the idea of "corrective rape". "When someone is a lesbian, it's like saying to us men that we are not good enough," Thulani Bhengu, 35, tells the BBC. Very few cases of rape against lesbians have ever resulted in convictions. No-one knows how many of the more than 50,000 cases of rape reported in South Africa each year are committed against gay women, because the victim's sexual orientation is not recorded. But after the murder of Ms Nogwaza - and a petition signed by 170,000 people around the world calling for an end to "corrective rape" - the justice department has begun to listen. It is in the process of setting up a team to develop a strategy for tackling hate crimes against gay people, and is considering introducing heavier sentences for offences where the victim's sexual orientation is a factor in the crime. Ms Nkosana is afraid that she might be attacked again, but says she will not be "forced back in the closet" - made to pretend that she is a heterosexual. "They made me a victim in my own neighbourhood but I won't let them win," she says. "They can't stop me from being who I am." But despite her defiant attitude, Ms Tlhwale says many South African lesbians are deeply worried. "Everyone is scared," she says. "We have seen an increase in attacks against lesbians in recent months. Everyone we speak to is afraid that they might be next."

Lesbian South Africans are living in fear as rape and murder become a daily threat in the townships they call home.

Summarize the following article: The rainfall follows one of the worst droughts in more than 50 years, made worse by the El Nino phenomenon. Administrators in the southern district of Wolaita said 41 people had died in landslides on Monday. Nine other people drowned in floods in the south-eastern area of Bale that also killed hundreds of head of cattle. The flooding in Bale, in the south of the Oromia region, has reportedly affected 559 hectares (1,381 acres) of farmland too, washing away seeds. Rescue efforts are under way to save people missing in the landslides, Wolaita police commissioner Alemayehu Mamo told Fana Broadcasting Corporate (FBC). But a major road and bridge had also been damaged in the SNNP region, hampering rescue efforts, he said. The BBC's Emmanuel Igunza in the capital, Addis Ababa, says more than 10 million people are already in need of urgent humanitarian assistance because of the drought. The government and aid agencies have launched a $1.4bn (£970m) appeal to help those requiring urgent food assistance.

At least 50 people in Ethiopia have died in floods and landslides caused by heavy rain, a state-affiliated broadcaster has reported.

Summarize the following article: Unsurprisingly these year's ranking of the UK's richest 1,000 people by the Sunday Times continues to be dominated by financiers, hedge funders and property tycoons. Yet delve a bit deeper and the list reveals some less obvious ways to become one of the super-rich. We look at six of the career choices which you wouldn't typically bet on to bring in the big bucks. "The egg market is big" - that's how egg producer Noble Foods put it. In the UK, we eat a staggering 30 million eggs every day and as chairman of Noble Foods, Peter Dean has amassed a £212m fortune from the family egg business, putting him at 534 on the list. The company was started in the 1920s by his grandfather William Dean, who sold eggs door-to-door in rural Hertfordshire. The firm rapidly moved from packing and selling a small amount of eggs for local grocery stores into a national business. Always ambitious, the firm bought several other companies to speed up its growth. Just over a decade ago, Dean Food Group merged with Stonegate, controlled by lifelong egg producer Michael Kent, to create Noble Foods. "Bringing eggs to life," is the tagline of the company, whose brands include Happy Egg and Big & Fresh as well as luxury pudding brand Gu. Never underestimate how much people love their pets. Most owners think of their animals as members of the family and are willing to spend big to prove it, making it a lucrative industry. British husband and wife duo Tony and Christina Quinn - listed at number 446 with a £255m joint fortune - set up their business catering to pampered pets after emigrating to Australia. Their chilled pet food business VIP Pet Foods focused on the gourmet end of the market for cats and dogs, offering a "Fussy Cat" range and vacuum-packed fresh minces. The pair sold the business in 2015 for AU$410m - the equivalent of £250m today. Thomas Warburton and his wife Ellen opened a grocery shop in 1870. When sales fell in 1870, Ellen switched to baking bread, with her loaves becoming an instant success. Almost 150 years on, Warburtons is still a private family owned business managed by the fifth generation of Warburtons Jonathan, Ross and Brett. The firm now sells £500m a year's worth of bread, crumpets, fruit loaf, muffins, tea cakes and wraps. It claims over a quarter of all bakery products eaten in the UK are produced by them. Their enduring popularity has made them plenty of dough - putting the Warburton family at 225 on the list with a £545m fortune. Everyone needs to wash. Soap brand Imperial Leather has helped power Anthony Green, former chairman of household products firm PZ Cussons, and the Zochonis family, descendants of company founder George Zochonis, to 170th on the list with a £541m fortune. The Manchester-based company is now behind a range of household products from Charles Worthington hair care to self-tanning brand St Tropez. The firm actually started out as a commodities trader in the 1880s, but by 1948 had switched to manufacturing, opening its first soap factory in Nigeria. Boxes of juice may seem a pretty everyday item now. But back in the 1950s, sterile and watertight containers were seen as a novel alternative to glass bottles. Tetra Pak founder Ruben Rausing came up with the idea after watching his wife make sausages by tying up the ends, and wondering if a similar system would work for milk, according to the New York Times. Last year the firm sold 188 billion Tetra Pak packages. The invention has made the Rausing family rich, propelling Ruben's son Hans Rausing and family - who have now sold their 50% stake in the business - to number 11 on the rich list with a £650m fortune. Starting out as a market trader isn't an obvious route to wealth, yet at least one person on the list started out this way. Former market trader Chris Dawson founded the Range discount stores which he describes as "the working man's John Lewis". Together with his wife Sarah Dawson, he's now worth £1.9bn and ranked 67th on the list. The "pile it high, sell it cheap" approach has helped three other discounters make the grade. Home Bargains chain founder Tom Morris and family rank 39th with a wealth of over £3bn, followed by Simon, Bobby and Robin Arora - the brothers behind the B&M discount store chain. Together the brothers are listed at 65, and are collectively worth £1.92bn. Poundstretcher owners and brothers Rashid and Aziz Tayub and family - which now have over 400 stores in the UK - come 453rd on the list with £250m.

Summarize the following article: Wake Up Wigan wants an area-wide vote on whether an elected mayor and other devolved powers are wanted. A deal for devolution to Greater Manchester was announced in November. The campaign's Stephen Hall said it was "hard to fathom how something which is supposed to empower the people shouldn't involve them". When the devolution deal was revealed, the Chancellor George Osborne said it was "a massive moment for the north of England" that would "give Mancunians a powerful voice". Mr Hall, the president of the Association of Greater Manchester Trade Unions Councils, said the lack of a referendum was "preventing a proper discussion on devolution and what people might ideally like to see". He said he agreed with devolution in principle, but was against "devolution by diktat, rather than consensus". "It's not as if the public have been involved in this, whatsoever," he said. "People should be involved in a discussion about what devolution should look like, rather than being told 'This is what you're having, whether you like it or not'. "Surely there must be a better way of devolving power than this." It was revealed in January that the region would have an interim mayor from June, who would be chosen from existing council leaders. Elections for a regional mayor will be held in 2017.

Greater Manchester should hold a referendum on devolution to avoid "a massive democratic deficit", campaigners in Wigan have said.

Summarize the following article: The 7.8-magnitude quake, the most powerful to hit Iran for more than 50 years, caused 35 deaths in Pakistan's Balochistan province. The National Disaster Management Authority say a further 150 people there have been injured. The quake shook tall buildings as far away as India and the Gulf States. It struck in the Iranian province of Sistan Baluchistan at about 15:14 local time (10:44 GMT) on Tuesday close to the city of Khash, which has a population of nearly 180,000, and Saravan, where 250,000 people live. Its depth was about 95km (59 miles). By Shahzeb JillaniBBC News, Quetta The area most affected on the Pakistani side is a remote location close to the Iran border called Mashkel. Getting there from the provincial capital Quetta can take 10-12 hours. Travelling by road in Balochistan is considered very risky because of frequent attacks and kidnappings blamed on separatist insurgents and extremist Sunni groups. Baloch nationalists in turn accuse the Pakistani army of widespread abuses and keeping the province effectively under army occupation, with tens and thousands of paramilitary troops deployed across the country's largest province. Since Tuesday, the army has sprung into action to fly helicopters to deliver medicines, rations and tents to the earthquake survivors. Many believe the army is keen to project its soft image in an otherwise hostile part of the country. "The epicentre of the quake was located in the desert, and population centres do not surround it. There were no fatalities in the towns around the epicentre," an Iranian crisis centre official, Morteza Akbarpour, was quoted as saying by the Iranian news agency Isna. Iran's Fars news agency said the depth of the quake reduced its impact to the size of a magnitude-4.0 tremor on the surface. All communications to the region have been cut and the Iranian Red Crescent said it was sending 20 search-and-rescue teams to the area. However, fatalities were soon reported in Pakistan, mostly in the Mashkel district of Balochistan. Officials said homes had collapsed and army and paramilitary forces were being sent to help the relief effort. Two military helicopters carrying medical teams were on their way and would have troops in support, they said. The area has since been shaken by several strong aftershocks including one on Wednesday of magnitude 5.7. Eyewitness reports Iran's vulnerability to earthquakes UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon issued a statement saying the organisation stood ready to help "if asked to do so" and the US also offered assistance. The quake was felt over a wide area. Tuesday's earthquake was about 180 times stronger in energy release than a 6.3-magnitude quake that struck on 10 April near the nuclear plant at Bushehr in south-western Iran. That quake killed at least 37 people and wounded 850. The Bushehr plant was not damaged by the earlier earthquake, and an official at the Russian firm that built the plant said it had not been damaged by Tuesday's earthquake either, Reuters reported. Scientists say earthquakes in south-eastern Iran are triggered by the clash between the Arabia and Eurasia tectonic plates, the former of which is pushing north at a rate of several centimetres each year. In 2003, a 6.6-magnitude quake destroyed much of the south-eastern city of Bam and killed some 26,000 people.

Pakistan has sent troops to help its citizens affected by a powerful earthquake that struck just over the border in south-east Iran.

Summarize the following article: John David Hulme, 55, denies charges which relate to more than £800,000 in public money paid to Padarn Bus Ltd in claims for concessionary fares. The offences allegedly occurred between July 2011 and December 2012, before he was suspended as the firm's managing director on an unrelated matter. The trial is being held at Caernarfon Crown Court. Judge Merfyn Hughes QC told the jury a fraud existed but added: "You have to decide whether Mr Hulme was involved in it. That's the issue you will want to concentrate on throughout the case." The prosecution counsel told jurors fraudulent claims totalling £814,655.78 were made between July 2011 and March 2014 when the fraud came to light. The total, which had been falsely claimed by the company at the point Mr Hulme, from Caernarfon, was suspended in December 2012 was £495,857.08. The jury heard a second man, Darren Price, of Llanrug, the operations manager at Padarn Bus Ltd, had already pleaded guilty to charges relating to fraud offences. Mr Hulme was "intimately" involved although he claimed he had become suspicious that something wrong was going on before he was suspended, prosecutor Matthew Dunford said. The fraud allegation against Mr Hulme involves making false representations to Gwynedd council over concessionary fare passenger numbers. The second charge involves a falsified document presented to the council. Jurors were told Padarn Bus Ltd was formed in 2009 when Padarn Bus and KMP buses merged and it was a "substantial local company" employing 79 staff with a fleet of 43 buses. But Mr Dunford said the company had borrowed heavily at the time of the merger and by 2011 it owed money to the taxman. Chartered accountant Simon Thelwall-Jones was brought in to help out and the fraud came to light when operations manager Price told him: "I have got something to tell you." The accountant immediately contacted Gwynedd Council and police were also informed. The trial continues.

A former Gwynedd bus company boss has gone on trial accused of fraud and false accounting.

Summarize the following article: A mystery borrower slipped the book discreetly through the letterbox at the county library at the weekend. It was checked out in 1932. County librarian Ciaran Mangan said he was just delighted to see it back. ''It was an item that had been out on loan effectively since it was published and put into stock and the system in 1932," he explained. "As good Christians, we decided we would waive the fine if the person appears in person and confesses to having returned the book." There are no details on the original borrower because the library's computerised records only date back to 1994. However, someone may have had their conscience pricked because the overdue book is a pictorial record of the 31st International Eucharistic Congress in Dublin in 1932. The 50th International Eucharistic Congress takes place in Dublin next month. The book has generated a lot of interest. "We believe it was well cared for and was probably shelved with the family's collection, getting lost among their own books," said Mr Mangan. "We have it on display as it is attracting a lot of attraction."

Summarize the following article: That was the stark assessment a long-time China watcher gave me while discussing what's happening to one of the country's richest men, Wang Jianlin. Mr Wang, once considered a Beijing favourite, seems to have fallen foul of the establishment. His business, Dalian Wanda, grew into one of the country's most prominent property developers. And overseas it has invested heavily too, most noticeably in Hollywood - controlling the AMC cinema chain as well as Legendary Entertainment, co-producer of hit films including Godzilla and The Dark Knight Rises. But China is now reportedly ordering banks and financiers to stop lending to several high profile firms - including Wanda. That forced it to suddenly sell off theme parks and hotels to raise cash and reduce debt. A subsequent rejigging of the deal just added to the picture of chaos. "The business strategy of the company is changing, and is a bit unpredictable," Cindy Huang from S&P Global Ratings told me. "Just a couple of weeks ago, the chairman was signing new theme park projects...but then decided to sell off 91% of the company's theme parks to a rival developer. The transaction is unusual." That's putting it mildly. So what could lead a smart and savvy business operator like Mr Wang to make such a seemingly crazy U-turn? Well there's speculation he couldn't do much else. Certainly if reports are to be believed, the clampdown on companies spending money overseas has come from the very top - President Xi Jinping himself. And that's because while many in the West are concerned about "black swans" - rare, unexpected events that threaten financial markets - China has a different animal in its sights: "grey rhinos". The term refers to large, visible problems in an economy which are often ignored - until they start moving fast and trampling everything in their wake. And in this case the term it's being applied to a group of the country's corporate giants which despite growing so big and borrowing so much, were seen as untouchable because of their political connections. But not any more. A recent front page report in state mouthpiece People's Daily, warned of the need to avoid these grey rhinos, which as well as Dalian Wanda, also include: Stocks and bonds of these companies fell as investors struggled to make sense of Beijing's new economic priorities. "No one will touch these companies for a while," Dickie Wong of Kingston Financial Services told me. "And don't expect these companies to invest or acquire any assets overseas. They will go quiet for a while." In the past though, companies like Dalian Wanda had been actively encouraged by Beijing to go forth and conquer. As I wrote in a piece last year about Chinese acquisitions, China Inc. went on a spending spree and was among the most active investors in UK, US and Australian property markets. That splurge fuelled by cheap loans from state-owned banks. The powers-that-be in Beijing approved of this economic colonialism because, frankly, it made China look good. "I'm a little bit sympathetic to Wanda, HNA and the like," Christopher Balding, an economics and politics professor at Peking University told me. "Twelve months ago what they were doing was being heavily encouraged by Chinese regulators... because Beijing wanted to improve its soft power. Now, they've clearly fallen into a bit of a mess." And this isn't just a Chinese problem. If China's corporations stop spending cash overseas, then that's that's going to have knock-on effects for the global economy. Chinese money has helped to push property prices up in many parts of the world (though that's not always a good thing, as those trying to get on the housing ladder in cities like London, Sydney and Melbourne will emphatically tell you). And if demand dries up as Chinese businesses keep their hands in their pockets, global asset prices may drop too. But what this really shows, above all else, is a government reasserting control. And it's doing so in a way that directly contradicts Beijing's claims to be developing an economy more driven by free markets. That opening up might be happening in one direction - for example allowing money into China through the Bond Connect programme and China's inclusion on the MSCI emerging markets index. But from Beijing's recent moves, getting money out of China is becoming much harder.

"Nobody is safe".

Summarize the following article: The world number one resumed leading by two sets to one and with the match 3-3 in the fourth after a storm had halted play on Friday evening. Murray took the fourth set on Saturday's resumption but Djokovic came through 6-3 6-3 5-7 5-7 6-1. The 28-year-old Serb will face Switzerland's Stan Wawrinka in the final on Sunday. Djokovic has now won 28 matches in a row, and another victory would make him only the eighth man to complete the set of all four Grand Slam titles. His hopes were threatened for the first time on Friday evening as Murray launched a stirring comeback, and the top seed looked in real danger when the Briton grabbed the fourth set on Saturday. "I'm very glad that I managed to finish this match as a winner," said Djokovic. "I was hoping I can do it before, but I don't think I have done too much wrong, even today in the fourth. He just came up with some great shots, great points." Murray said: "Last night before we came off the crowd were really into it and it was a good atmosphere. I was obviously motivated to come out today and try to turn the match around. "I played a loose game on my serve the first game of the [final] set with the new balls. I missed I think three balls long in that game. "Then I think Novak relaxed a little bit after that and he hit the ball extremely accurate." Both men had appeared nerveless as just one point went against serve in Saturday's opening four games, but it was Djokovic who faltered first at 5-5 amid some brilliant, punishing baseline rallies. Murray's defensive skills began to draw errors and the Scot raised his fist in triumph after sealing the vital break, before closing the set out on serve. The crowd, enjoying an unexpected bonus ahead of the women's final, rose to acclaim his effort against a player who had seemed invincible for much of the tournament. Djokovic has been ruthless when it has counted during his unbeaten run, however, finishing off nine-time champion Rafael Nadal 6-1 in the quarter-finals, and with two love sets against Murray to his name this season. Once again, the world number one powered away in the final stages. A half-chance passed Murray by when he netted a regulation backhand at deuce in the opening game of the decider, and a poor service game of four errors then cost him dear. Djokovic resumed the clinical display that had seen him through the first two sets on Friday, powering one rocket of a forehand down the line before breaking again to all but secure victory. Murray had been on a 15-match winning run on clay coming into the match but in the closing stages could do nothing to avoid an eighth successive defeat by his rival since childhood.

Novak Djokovic saw off a thrilling fightback from Andy Murray to win their French Open semi-final in five sets.

Summarize the following article: Showroom owner Iain Harris, 44, said he thought a call from the PM's security team saying he was interested in the compact car was a "wind-up". Mr Cameron paid £1,495 for the Nissan Micra in Minster Lovell, Oxfordshire, on Friday. He said the blue car was "just the right colour" for the Tory leader. Mr Harris said he first heard of Mr Cameron's interest in the car when he received a call to his office at Witney Used Car Centre, in the prime minister's constituency. "I thought it was one of my mates having a wind-up and I was going to be sat here for half an hour on my own doing nothing - especially when he said it was for a Nissan Micra." He explained that when he turned up for the appointment, Mr Cameron asked his security detail to stand behind the car to make sure the back brake lights worked. Mr Harris said he could not resist quipping that it was lucky the car was not red - the colour of the Labour Party. "Fortunately, it was just the right colour," he said. Mr Harris added: "It was a bit surreal, but likewise he was just a normal chap buying a car for his wife, a normal conversation, normal sort of deal and that was it."

Prime Minister David Cameron has bought a £1,500 used car as a "cheap run-around" for his wife, according to the salesman he bought it from.

Summarize the following article: Lawyers issued emergency proceedings at the High Court in Belfast after she was about to be moved against her wishes. But the bid was put on hold after the health trust involved agreed to postpone the move until a separate tribunal decides her status. The patient is currently being detained under mental health legislation. A mental health review panel is expected to determine on Friday whether the woman, who cannot be identified, should remain in the unit. If the tribunal decides her detention is still necessary the legal battle over the transfer to England will resume in court next week. The judge was told that the woman is in a "fairly chronic state of health". However, she is opposing a decision that she should be moved out of Northern Ireland to undergo continued treatment. The case was adjourned following the pledge given on behalf of the trust. Counsel for the woman successfully sought anonymity for her, based on her right to privacy, medical condition and current status. The judge imposed a ban on reporting the names of either the woman or the trust.

An anorexic woman from Northern Ireland has launched a legal bid to block attempts by health authorities to send her to England for further treatment.

Summarize the following article: The settlement at Little Carlton near Louth was discovered after local metal detectorist Graham Vickers found a silver writing tool. University of Sheffield archaeologists have since unearthed 300 dress pins and a large number of Sceatta coins. The island was once home to a Middle Saxon settlement and dates back to the 7th century. Mr Vickers initially reported a silver stylus to the Portable Antiquities Scheme, which encourages people to record archaeological objects found in England and Wales. Twenty more styli from the 8th century have since been found, along with butchered animal bones and a small lead tablet engraved with the female Anglo-Saxon name 'Cudberg'. Dr Hugh Wilmott from the University of Sheffield's archaeology department said the site was "particularly unusual" because of the items found there. He said trade weights and other objects suggest the settlement was a "high-status trading site and not an ordinary village". Geophysical and magnetometry surveys along with 3D modelling enabled the landscape to be visualised on a large scale. The archaeologists also digitally raised the water level to its early medieval height, and found the land rose from its lower surroundings much more so than today. Sheffield archaeology students have since opened nine evaluation trenches to reveal "a wealth of information about what life would have been like at the settlement", Dr Wilmott said. They found significant Middle Saxon pottery, some of which was from Germany. "Far from being very isolated in the early medieval period, Lincolnshire was actually connected in a much wider world network, with trade spanning the whole of the North Sea," he said. "This little field in Lincolnshire is part of a connected European trading network." The findings are "tremendously important" to our knowledge of early medieval times since very few Middle Saxon documents exist, Dr Wilmott said. A similar site at Flixborough in North Lincolnshire was uncovered in the late 1990s.

Dutchman Dumoulin said his two closest rivals were "clearly working together" and hoped they would lose places. Nibali countered: "Has he ever heard of karma? He should do less talking because even he might miss the podium." American Tejay van Garderen won Thursday's 18th stage, edging out Mikel Landa at the finish in Ortisei. It was a first individual Grand Tour stage victory for the 28-year-old, who helped his BMC team to win team time trials at both the Tour de France and Vuelta a Espana in 2015. Dumoulin finished ninth, more than one minute behind Van Garderen, but held off attacks by Quintana to maintain his overall advantage on the Colombian.

Dumoulin, seeking to become the first Dutch winner of the event, crossed the line in the same time as Quintana at the end of the 137km stage from Moena to Ortisei. Defending champion Nibali remains one minute 12 seconds behind, while Thibaut Pinot of France gained more than a minute on the leading trio in the general classification. Asked about Nibali's comments, Dumoulin said: "They're only trying to make me lose. Until today I had no problems with Nibali. Only today I didn't like his riding in the final." Friday's 19th stage is a 191 km ride from San Candido to Piancavallo featuring four climbs and Dumoulin insisted Quintana, the 2014 champion and two-time Tour de France runner-up, is still "the strongest climber" in the race. The 100th Giro ends in Milan on Sunday. 1. Tejay van Garderen (US/BMC Racing) 3hrs 54mins 03secs 2. Mikel Landa (Sp/Team Sky) Same time 3. Thibaut Pinot (Fr/FDJ) +8secs 4.

Summarize the following article: McAleer and Rushe acquired the site just over a year ago and intends to develop it with a mixed-use hotel and student accommodation scheme. Belfast City Council approved plans for the 14-storey development, designed by Belfast-based Consarc Design Group. It will also comprise restaurants, bars and meeting and conference space. The site sits within an area known as 'The Linen Quarter' which Belfast City Council and other government agencies have targeted for major regeneration with plans including a major upgrade of the urban streetscape. The hotel will have an entrance facing on to Blackstaff Square. In a design and access statement submitted as part of the proposal, McAleer and Rushe said the hotel would make a "positive contribution" to the city by regenerating the site of an unoccupied building in the city centre. It also said it would "create a strong development on a prominent corner" in the city centre and "improve the activity and dynamism in a developing area". McAleer and Rushe property director, Stephen Surphlis, said: "This is great news for Belfast, as this is a centrally located hotel scheme, which is designed to complement Belfast's forward-looking aspirations and assist in meeting the undersupply in hotel provision. "The Belfast leisure market has recovered strongly following the downturn, with figures confirming strong occupancy levels and increasing room rates," he added. "This new hotel will help to satisfy increasing demand going forward as Belfast rapidly increases in popularity as a leisure and business destination." Mr Surphlis said his firm has "received strong interest from established hotel operators and have already commenced demolition of the existing college building". "We look forward to beginning construction early in 2016". McAleer and Rushe also has plans for an adjacent 476-room student housing scheme on McClintock Street and 804-room student housing scheme on College Avenue. The hotel and two student housing schemes will create in excess of 300 jobs during the building phase, giving a much need boost to the Northern Irish construction sector.

Planning permission for a 206-bedroom hotel on the site of the former Belfast Metropolitan College has been granted to a County Tyrone development firm.

Summarize the following article: An earlier video taken by a bystander shows Gilbert Flores, 41, with his hands up before being shot, though one of his arms is obscured from view. Police said the second video shows Flores with his hands up but also shows him holding what looks like a blade. Officials did not release the second video or disclose the source. San Antonio police officers Greg Vasquez and Robert Sanchez were responding to a call about a domestic dispute on Friday when they confronted Flores outside his home. The officers said a woman inside the house had a gash to her head and was holding a baby who appeared to be injured. Sheriff Susan Pamerleau would not say whether investigators recovered a knife from the scene after the shooting. Mr Vasquez and Mr Sanchez have been placed on administrative leave while the incident is investigated by the sheriff's department. "Certainly, what's in the video is a cause for concern," said Ms Pamerleau, adding that the investigation must be allowed to run its course. Bexar County District Attorney Nico LaHood said on CNN that both deputies have only given statements and he has not spoken to either of them about what happened. "It was a volatile situation ... it would be premature to make a conclusion," he said. The initial video was recorded from some distance. The fatal shooting a year ago of unarmed black teenager Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, by a white police officer sparked protests and a national debate about racial bias and the use of force by police.

Texas authorities say a new video shows that a man killed by police officers was holding what appears to be a knife when he was shot.

Summarize the following article: The heritage body said it supported the general licensed reintroduction of the animals. Scottish Natural Heritage is due to release a report on the Knapdale beaver trial in Argyll ahead of a government decision on the project's future. More than 150 beavers, which originated from escapes or illegal releases, also live in waterways in Tayside. The Trust has published a policy statement setting out its position on the issue. The charity said that the reintroduction of the Eurasian Beaver to Scotland would see a key element of native fauna restored to its natural ecosystem and support the conservation of existing beaver populations in Scotland. Nature adviser Lindsay Mackinlay said: "Beavers are a native species to Scotland and having carefully weighed up the pros and cons, the Trust believes that they should be resident here. "We would like to see the existing beavers in Argyll and Tayside managed to permit their natural expansion from these core areas and hope that other licensed reintroductions in appropriate areas will augment the existing populations." Scotland is one of the few countries in Europe which does not have a wild beaver population and many nations, including the Netherlands, have reintroduced them in recent years. Mr Mackinlay added: "The beaver is a crucial element in our countryside which plays an important role in the conservation of other wildlife. Conservationists call it a keystone species because its presence has such a major impact on the natural environment and its wildlife. Scotland is currently much the poorer without it. "Let's not pretend that beavers are always good neighbours. Sometimes, they are not. Their dam building activities and burrows can cause problems. "That's why we're asking for a national mitigation plan that addresses the legitimate concerns of landowners, salmon fishery managers and other interest groups." Moray-based conservation charity Trees for Life recently indicated their support for the return of the beaver. Beavers, once a native species, are thought to have been hunted to extinction in Scotland in the 16th Century. In recent years, the Cairngorms National Park Authority has looked at the pros and cons of reintroducing beavers.

Beavers should be resident in Scotland, according to the National Trust for Scotland.

Summarize the following article: Ms Yu was hit by the the wing of another aircraft after ejecting from her plane, Chinese media reported. The domestically made jet crashed into a field in Tangshan, Hebei province. "We have lost a comrade and the air force feels great pain and sadness for Yu Xu's sacrifice," air force spokesman Shen Jinke said. According to reports, Ms Yu was forced to eject from her plane after it collided with another. Another pilot, 35, survived the crash. He is said to have been her co-pilot and has already been discharged from hospital, the Beijing News reported. The black box and the engine of the aircraft have been retrieved and an investigation is underway. Ms Yu, from Sichuan province, joined the air force in 2005. She was the first of four female pilots to qualify to fly the two-seater, multi-role J-10 fighter jet. "I am very lucky that I can fly," Ms Yu had said in an interview. "I don't need to think about anything but flying. If possible, I can look at the skies to divert my attention. It is another world. It's wonderful." Many netizens expressed sadness at the sudden death of Ms Yu, who was affectionately known as "golden peacock". "(Ms Yu) left the world at most beautiful stage of one's life. What a saddening loss," internet user Dong Tao Jun wrote on Weibo. Another netizen said: "Soldiers sacrifice themselves for the sake of the safety and happiness of the people… We are thankful for the contribution of soldiers." However, three crashes involving the J-10 fighter jets took place last year, and some people were dissatisfied with the way state media reported her death. "It is more important to investigate the causes of the accident. Was it a design problem? Was it a problem with the procedures? Was it because of inadequate training?" "[The reports] shouldn't just be about arousing emotions. We will only be able to avoid similar accidents if the causes of the accident are found," said one Weibo user.

China is mourning the death of Yu Xu, the country's first female J-10 jet pilot who was killed during an aerobatic training session on Saturday.

Summarize the following article: John Wishart 39, fired the weapon towards one officer as another hid behind a car for safety outside a bar in Leven. CS spray was used to try and stop Wishart, who at one point jumped into the driver's seat of the police car. He was eventually detained by the officers. The incident happened in May. Wishart pled guilty to four charges - including assault and possessing the stun gun - at the High Court in Glasgow. After being arrested, police also discovered Wishart was in possession of two knives. Lord Boyd told Wishart: "Police officers who serve the community are entitled to the protection of the courts. "You tried to threaten or intimidate them in a bid to prevent them carrying out their duty. "I accept you did not intend to do any harm with the Taser - you were intent on using it to escape from the police."

A man who confronted police while armed with a 29,000-volt stun gun in Fife has been jailed for five years and three months.

Summarize the following article: Lewis Kerr, 25, from Snettisham in Norfolk, collided with another rider at the event on Sunday before crashing into a fence. He was flown to hospital by helicopter and the meeting was abandoned. Team manager George English said the rider's family was at his bedside at Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge. Mr English added: "It was not a good looking crash and it instantly became apparent that Lewis needed major attention. "The paramedic team were superb and gave Lewis the very best of attention on the track, but also realised that it was important to get him to hospital as soon as possible." A spokesman for the British Speedway Promotion Agency (BSPA) said: "Lewis is in a stable condition and is in the very best place for care and attention. "There was no alternative but to abandon the meeting. All of the riders were in no state to continue after seeing what had happened. "Our thoughts are with Lewis and his family, and we wish him a full, successful and speedy recovery. "Our information at this stage is that he is in an induced coma and as and when any further updates are available we will issue further bulletins. "Everyone within British Speedway sends our best wishes to Lewis and his family, and we hope for good news soon." Mr Kerr joined the Newcastle Diamonds on loan from King's Lynn at the start of 2013.

Summarize the following article: The peace activist and educational campaigner remained in Somalia throughout the 21-year civil war unlike many other Somali intellectuals. He defeated former President Sheikh Sharif Sheikh Ahmed in a run-off with a convincing majority of Somali MPs. Both men hail from the Hawiye clan - one of the country's main groups based in the capital, Mogadishu. But, unlike his predecessor, clan - which influences all walks of life in Somalia - was not the driving force behind Mr Mohamud's victory. Analysts say it is the fact that the academic had not dirtied himself with politics or clan conflicts that set him out from the rest. Instead, he has won respect for his work in civil society and education, being one of the founders of Mogadishu's Simad university, where he was a lecturer and served as its first dean for 10 years until he resigned to enter politics. One of his former students who graduated in 2004 told the BBC he was an easy-going tutor, not quick to anger and an impressive orator. "He could entertain us for two hours during lectures on management, making jokes and people laugh," he told the BBC Somali service. Born in central Hiran province in 1955, he grew up in a middle-class neighbourhood of Mogadishu and graduated from the Somali National University with a technical engineering degree in 1981. His contemporaries say he was quiet and unassuming and went on to become a teacher before doing a post-graduate degree in Bhopal University, India. On his return, he joined the Ministry of Education to oversee a teach-training scheme funded by Unesco. When the central government collapsed in 1991, he joined Unicef as an education officer, travelling around south and central Somalia, which he said enabled him to see "the magnitude of the collapse in education sector". Three years later, he established one of the first primary schools in Mogadishu since the war broke out. He also has links with al-Islah, the Somali branch of the Muslim brotherhood which was vital in rebuilding the education system in the wake of the clan conflicts. It set up many schools with Muslim curriculums similar to those in Sudan and Egypt but is strongly opposed to al-Shabab. Described as a moderate Islamist, Mr Mohamud is also said to have been close to the Union of Islamist Courts (UIC). His followers say he simply supported any activity aiming to restore peace and stability. The UIC was a grouping of local Islamic courts, initially set up by businessmen to establish some form of order in the lawless state, which brought relative peace to the country in 2006, before Ethiopia invaded and overthrew them - frightened by the al-Qaeda linked al-Shabab militia that was gaining power in the courts. During the 1990s, Mr Mohamud became very involved in civil society groups and people close to him say he is known for resolving clan disputes. His first real success on this score was his participation in negotiations in 1997 that oversaw the removal of the infamous "Green Line" which divided Mogadishu into two sections controlled by rival clan warlords. Described by some in the early 1990s as the "cancer of Mogadishu", the division made life difficult for city residents and politicians alike. In 2001, he joined the Centre for Research and Dialogue as a researcher in post-conflict reconstruction - a body sometimes criticised as being too closely affiliated to the West - and has worked as a consultant to various UN bodies and the transitional government. As a regular participant on the influential weekly BBC Somali service debating programme, he underlined the importance of including civil society groups in the "roadmap to peace" which eventually led to his election. Married to two wives and with several children, some of whom live in Somalia and others abroad, his motivation seems to come from wanting to build a future for the younger generation. Last year, he set up the Peace and Development Party (PDP), which he made clear was above clan politics. The BBC's Daud Aweis in Mogadishu says Mr Mohamud is a man who likes to consult others. "In the various Somali conferences I met him, he showed the attitude of being able and willing to talk to everyone," he said.

Hassan Sheikh Mohamud's dogged determination not to give up on Somalia despite years of conflict, warlordism, piracy and Islamist insurgency has finally paid off.

Summarize the following article: But he has ended up paying for their accommodation in the capital himself. Peter Dreier, mayor of the district of Landshut, said he wanted to "send a signal" that Germany's asylum policies could not continue as before. The bus arrived in Berlin on Thursday evening. All those on board volunteered to make the journey, the council said. Germany took in 1.1 million asylum seekers in 2015. Mr Dreier said he had informed Mrs Merkel of his bus plan in a phone call in October. What next for refugees in Germany? Europe's migration crisis - in maps and charts German government spokesman Steffen Seibert said in a statement that in Germany the state and local authorities were responsible for accommodating refugees, and they were provided with comprehensive support from the federal government. "Berlin [meaning the state authority there] has agreed in this case to provide the refugees with the first night's accommodation," he said. However, after at least an hour-and-a-half parked outside Mrs Merkel's official residence, and with some uncertainty for those on board, the bus headed off. Mr Dreier told Die Welt newspaper that he was not happy with the emergency accommodation offered by Berlin, so he was paying for one night's stay at a guesthouse. "What happens after that, we'll see," he said. German reporters on board said the travellers had been unaware that the trip was a political statement - and some have criticised the mayor's move. "It is outrageous that he is exploiting those seeking protection," said Bavarian Green Party co-leader Sigi Hagl. "Completely wrong," she tweeted. Mrs Merkel's welcoming approach to Syrians fleeing the war in their homeland made her a heroine to many migrants making the arduous journey through Europe. The men on the bus have refugee status, which means they are free to live anywhere in Germany. Finding accommodation is hard in Landshut, the local council said. The mayor, who waved the bus off from Landshut, followed in a car after a meeting and was surrounded by media on arrival outside the chancellery. "An end to the wave of refugees in not in sight, the country's capacity of accommodation fit for human habitation is rapidly running low and I see no sign that new dwellings for immigrants are being built," Mr Dreier, who represents the Independent Voters grouping, said in a statement. Mrs Merkel had said she understood his concerns when they spoke by phone, and said he should give her office one day's notice of the bus's departure, the council said. Ellmar Stoettner, a spokesman for the local council who travelled on the bus with the refugees, told the BBC that they would be offered a return journey to Bavaria if they so wished. They were all happy to be on board and had made the journey having been fully informed of their options, he said. Fifty-one refugees had originally expressed interest in the trip. The Landshut district has to house 2,100 asylum seekers, and that number continues to grow, he said. The population of the district - largely small market towns and villages - is 152,000. The men making the journey to Berlin are so-called Fehlbeleger - people with recognised refugee status who continue to occupy asylum-seeker accommodation as they cannot find a place of their own to rent. Mr Stoettner told the BBC that accommodation in his area was so in demand that the rental market had become a bit like London - and landlords could choose the tenants they preferred. Of the 2,100 asylum seekers in Landshut district, 450 were in this situation, he said.

A Bavarian mayor angry about Germany's asylum policy has sent a busload of Syrian migrants to Chancellor Angela Merkel's office in Berlin.

Summarize the following article: The project is being developed at Google X, the company's clandestine tech research arm, which is also responsible for its self-driving car. Project Wing has been running for two years, but was a secret until now. Google said that its long-term goal was to develop drones that could be used for disaster relief by delivering aid to isolated areas. They could be used after earthquakes, floods, or extreme weather events, the company suggested, to take small items such as medicines or batteries to people in areas that conventional vehicles cannot reach. "Even just a few of these, being able to shuttle nearly continuously could service a very large number of people in an emergency situation," explained Astro Teller, Captain of Moonshots - Google X's name for big-thinking projects. Google's self-flying vehicle project was first conceived of as a way to deliver defibrillator kits to people suspected of having heart attacks. The idea was that the drones would transport the equipment faster than an ambulance could. "When you have a tool like this you can really allow the operators of those emergency services to add an entirely new dimension to the set of tools and solutions that they can think of," said Dave Voss, incoming leader of Project Wing. The prototype vehicles that the company has built have successfully been tested by delivering packages to remote farms in Queensland, Australia, from neighbouring properties. Australia was selected as a test site due to what Google calls "progressive" rules about the use of drones, which are more tightly controlled in other parts of the world. Project Wing's aircraft have a wingspan of approximately 1.5m (4.9ft) and have four electrically driven propellers. The total weight, including the package to be delivered, is approximately 10kg (22lb). The aircraft itself accounts for the bulk of that at 8.5kg (18.7lb). The small, white glossy machine has a "blended wing" design where the entire body of the aircraft provides lift. The vehicle is known as a "tail sitter" - since it rests on the ground with its propellers pointed straight up, but then transitions into a horizontal flight pattern. This dual mode operation gives the self-flying vehicle some of the benefits of both planes and helicopters. It can take off or land without a runway, and can hold its position hovering in one spot. It can also fly quickly and efficiently, allowing it to cover larger distances than the more traditional quadcopter vehicles available commercially. The vehicles are pre-programmed with a destination, but then left to fly themselves there automatically. This differs from many military drone aircraft, which are often remotely controlled by a pilot on the ground, sometimes on the other side of the world. Eventually Google said it could use unmanned flying vehicles to deliver shopping items to consumers at home. That's a use that retail giant Amazon has already stated an interest in, with its proposed Prime Air service - the announcement of which generated headlines at the end of last year: Amazon has asked the US Federal Aviation Administration for permission to conduct outdoor tests. "The things we would do there are not unlike what is traditionally done in aerospace," said Mr Voss. "It will be clear for us what level of redundancy we need in the controls and sensors, the computers that are onboard, and the motors, and how they are able to fail gracefully such that you don't have catastrophic problems occurring." Other unusual vehicles have been investigated for humanitarian aid, including flying cars and hoverbikes, with the same aims of reaching cut-off areas quickly. "We will have to see what kind of specific technology works best within the aid landscape, and if the new technology can integrate positively in the local context," said Lou Del Bello from news site SciDev.net, speaking about the category in general. "It will need to demonstrate it can be cost effective, and respond to actual needs of local people."

Summarize the following article: The flock was found by a landowner in the Hambleton area. Officers said stolen animals were often hidden in plain view. Police believe the animals were destined for the illegal meat trade. A 54-year-old man from Middlesbrough was arrested on suspicion of theft and possession of cannabis. He was later released on bail. Insp Jon Grainge, of North Yorkshire Police, said sheep were being stolen in a covert operation "often in ones and twos, sometimes in trailer-loads". He said there had been a rise in the number of reports of stolen sheep. "Some will be destined almost immediately for the illegal meat trade, while others are hidden in open view in fields and barns across a wide geographic area. "The difficulty with the nature of this crime is that it is not necessarily immediately obvious to farmers, who may only be able to identify their shortfall at the time of bringing sheep in to scan or to worm, which often gives a very wide timeframe for us to work with." Insp Grainge appealed for anyone who had seen "suspicious movements of animals, or animals appearing in fields unexpectedly" to contact the force.

Sixty five stolen sheep and goats were found "hidden" in a field in North Yorkshire.

Summarize the following article: Jonathan Joseph, Elliot Daly, Semesa Rokoduguni, Teimana Harrison and Joe Launchbury gave England a big lead. Fiji hit back as Nemani Nadolo, Leone Nakarawa and Metuisela Talebula scored either side of the break. But further scores from Joe Launchbury (two), Joseph, Alex Goode and Rokoduguni saw England secure their biggest winning margin against Fiji. England head coach Eddie Jones had promised "fish and chip" rugby - namely that the hosts would produce a traditional, structured game to play to their strengths and not let things get loose, which would benefit Fiji. But, although they duly used the power of their driving line-out to score three first-half tries, they also showed plenty of ambition, with the 10-12 axis of George Ford and Owen Farrell combining well to release the backs. The skilful and explosive Fijians finally came to life near the break, scoring three quick tries as England slipped below the standards they had set initially. But in the end the hosts - who made five changes to their starting XV and brought on several youngsters from the bench in the second half - equalled their highest ever total against the visitors. "It was good fish and chips," Jones told BBC Sport. "It doesn't mean fish and chips is basic. I thought we played some sparkling rugby, really good stuff. The ball movement, crispness of passing was fantastic." Recalled centre Joseph opened the scoring inside the first few minutes, skipping over from Owen Farrell's nicely delayed pass, and Daly was next to cross, latching on to to Ford's long pass and leaving the Fiji defenders tripping over each other as he cruised over. Rokoduguni then scored his first Test try, against the land of his birth, and two tries from driven line-outs, for Harrison and Launchbury, meant England were still scoring at better than a point a minute at the half-hour mark. "George [Ford] and Owen [Farrell] were clever, they read the game well, read their defence well, which created opportunities for the outside guys," added Jones. "Rokoduguni has definitely got a smile on his face. I'm really pleased for him because he worked hard to get this chance. He got a lot of reward for the hard work he's done." Fiji had yet to make it into England's 22, denying the world class Nadolo and sevens star Nakarawa the chance to show what they could do. And, when they did finally get down the other end of the pitch, the pair featured prominently before the former crashed over in the corner for their first try. On the stroke of half-time it was Nakarawa showing his power and skill to stretch over despite the attention of a pack of England defenders. And early in the second half full-back Talebula beat three men on his way to their third score. But Jones was not too disheartened by the Fijians' fight back. "We are a young team, in terms of only being together 11 games. We are not going to get everything absolutely right," he said. England had been knocked out of their stride but they managed to regroup and pull away convincingly. Goode scored his first Test try, courtesy of prop Mako Vunipola's perfect take-and-give pass, before Joseph picked off a speculative pass from Fiji's Cornwall-born fly-half Josh Matavesi to score an interception try to complete his brace. And there was still time for Rokoduguni and Launchbury - the latter becoming only the second England second row to score two tries in a Test - to complete doubles of their own. "Our control was pretty good, at certain times we wanted to join the party but our discipline was pretty good. We can't be too disappointed with that result," added Jones. England welcome Argentina - who lost to a last-gasp Scotland penalty on Saturday - to Twickenham on 26 November. England: Goode, Rokoduguni, Joseph, Farrell, Daly, Ford, Youngs; M Vunipola, Hartley (capt), Cole, Launchbury, Lawes, Robshaw, Harrison, B Vunipola. Replacements: George, Marler, Sinckler, Ewels, Hughes, Care, Te'o, Slade. Fiji: Talebula, Masilevu, Tikoirotuma, Vulivuli, Nadolo, Matavesi, Vularika; Ma'afu, Koto, Saulo, Ratuniyawara, Nakarawa, Waqaniburotu, Yato, Qera. Replacements: Talemaitoga, Ravai, Atalifo, Soqeta, Dawai, Radrodro, Matawalu, Murimurivalu.

England stretched their winning run to 12 matches as they ran in nine tries against Fiji at Twickenham.

Summarize the following article: 2 December 2014 Last updated at 09:34 GMT It aims to build on the so-called Northern Powerhouse project by improving connections between cities. The money will be spent widening motorways and there has been talk of a £6 billion Trans-Pennine tunnel.

A £2.3 billion scheme to upgrade roads and motorways in Yorkshire and the North East has been announced by the government.

Summarize the following article: The average annual comprehensive policy cost £462 in the last three months of 2016, according to the Association of British Insurers (ABI). Previously the highest figure was £443 in the spring of 2012. The rise comes in spite of government attempts to limit compensation payments and cut court costs. One reason for the increase is a rise in the cost of repairing cars that have been in accidents, because of their increasingly sophisticated electronics. Buying in spare parts is also getting more expensive, due to the weakness of sterling. The average repair bill has risen by 32% over the last three years to £1,678, the ABI said. The ABI warned that premiums were likely to increase further, if the government went ahead with plans to review the so-called discount rate. When accident victims are given a lump sum in compensation, the sum is discounted to make up for the extra investment return they are likely to receive. Since 2001 the discount rate has been 2.5% - based on investment returns from government bonds. If that rate is reduced, insurance companies will have to pay out more - thus increasing premiums. "The sudden decision to review the discount rate has the potential to turn a drama into a crisis, with a significant cut throwing fuel on the fire in terms of premiums," said Rob Cummings, the ABI's head of motor and liability. The government said it would make an announcement as soon as possible. "The Lord Chancellor has decided to review the discount rate to ensure personal injury claimants are fairly compensated," said a spokesperson for the Ministry of Justice. "Due to ongoing consultation it is not yet possible to announce the review's outcome." How to get the cheapest car insurance Men 'pay £101 more' for car insurance Whiplash plans 'will cut insurance bills' The cost of insurance has also risen because of a series of increases to Insurance Premium Tax (IPT). IPT went up from 6% to 9.5% in 2015, to 10% in 2016, and will rise to 12% in June 2017. Personal injury claims, such as whiplash, have also become more expensive, rising by 2.3% over the last year, the ABI said. However, the government is currently consulting on plans to cap compensation payments to accident victims, which it says could reduce annual premiums by £40 a year. It also wants more disputes settled in the small claims courts, which would reduce costs for insurance companies.

Car insurance premiums in the UK have hit a record high, partly because cars' increasingly complex electronics have made repairs more expensive.

Summarize the following article: A painter, Lucia lives in Corleone and gave birth earlier this month. Salvatore "Toto" Riina, former boss of the notorious Cosa Nostra, was jailed in 1993 and now has terminal cancer. Italy's top court ruled this month that he had a right to "die with dignity" under house arrest but there were protests and he may not be let out. A parole board will have to decide in the northern city of Bologna, where 86-year-old Riina is in jail for his role in dozens of Cosa Nostra murders. Two anti-Mafia judges - Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino - were killed in 1992, in Riina's "war against the state". Corleone was the hometown of the fictional "Godfather" in Francis Ford Coppola's blockbuster films. Lucia and her mother are the only Riina family members still living in the town, which is run by special commissioners because the previous administration was found to have Mafia connections. The baby bonus is an allowance paid to poor families in Italy - €160 (£140; $180) a month for those with income not exceeding €7,000 a year, and €80 a month for those earning no more than €25,000. The Corleone authorities said Lucia had put in an incomplete claim for the bonus. Her husband Vincenzo Bellomo had submitted a new claim, but the deadline had expired. The monthly allowance covers a baby's first three years. Toto Riina has another daughter, Maria, who lives in the southern Puglia region. His son Giovanni is doing a life sentence in jail, and his other son, Salvo, is confined by law to Padua. Salvo wrote a controversial book, called Riina Family Life. Some Italians expressed outrage at the court ruling on Toto Riina, which could move him to house arrest, like any other terminally ill prisoner. Salvatore Borsellino, brother of the murdered judge, said: "The court should have remembered that the person before them is the same one who blew to bits servants of the state..."

Sicilian authorities have refused to pay Italy's "baby bonus" to the youngest daughter of jailed Mafia boss Toto Riina, 36-year-old Lucia.

Summarize the following article: The problem appears to have begun earlier in the day. Users had complained that they had experienced the bug on both the firm's mobile devices and its Mac computers. Apple recently updated its iOS and OS X operating systems, but users who had not installed the new versions had also reported the fault. This would suggest that the immediate cause was a process happening at Apple's data centres. However, some experts have suggested that an additional flaw in Safari itself may have led to the program crashing as it was unable to handle the invalid input. Apple has not provided a comment about the fault. But the BBC understands that the fix may take some time to go through for everyone. Users can, however, speed up the process by clicking on the "clear history and website data" in Safari's preferences. The issue only impacted people whose "suggestions cache" had updated while they were using the phone between 09:00 GMT and 12:00 GMT. As a result, Europe-based device owners were more likely to have been affected than those in Asia or the US. Earlier in the week, it emerged that a web link had gone viral that forced Safari to crash. The page the browser was sent to used JavaScript to put the software into a loop forcing it to fail. However, the more recent problem appears to have been much more widespread, and was replicated by the BBC. Apple revealed on Tuesday that there are about one billion of its core devices in use.

Apple believes it has fixed a problem that caused its Safari web browser to crash when users carried out a search via its address bar.

Summarize the following article: There had been calls for the players and manager Chris Coleman to be honoured by Gorsedd y Beirdd after they reached the tournament's semi finals. But Gorsedd boss Archdruid Geraint Lloyd Owen rejected it. He said it was because some do not speak Welsh and standards must be kept. "If they can't speak Welsh I don't see how we can welcome them in [Gorsedd], because Welsh is the biggest, strongest weapon we have as a nation and without it, we have nothing," the former Caernarfon Town FC chairman added. He said he could not think of any non-Welsh speaker other than the Queen to have received the honour. "I'm not an inflammatory sort of person, and I don't thrive on controversy," he said. "I'm just going to take the role of being Archdruid as it comes. I'll try to be myself, but you'll never please everyone." He also raised questions over the Gorsedd, which is a separate organisation to the Eisteddfod, honouring people for their performance in jobs they are paid to do. "It would be much better to reward those quiet people who work for their rural communities or wherever, and taken the burden to make sure things go on, and Welsh is used in the community." An Eisteddfod spokeswoman said they were "very proud" of the Wales team, and had invited them to come to this year's event. She added that the Gorsedd is a separate organisation to the Eisteddfod, although the two share a close relationship. The spokeswoman said: "Like everyone and everything else, the Gorsedd has its rules and only Gorsedd members have the right to nominate or second individuals to be honoured, and of course, it is essential that the person nominated speaks Welsh. "The process for this year's nominations closed at the end of February. "No member of the Welsh football team were nominated for the Gorsedd and no member of the team was refused the honour." The Eisteddfod takes place from Friday at Abergavenny, Monmouthshire, until 6 August.

The Wales football team's Euro 2016 success will not be honoured at the Eisteddfod because the Gorsedd's Welsh language rules will not be changed to allow it.

Summarize the following article: The wicketkeeper-batsman decided to put himself forward for the IPL, which runs from 9 April to 29 May, after losing his Test place to Jonny Bairstow. Ex-England batsman Kevin Pietersen was the first player sold as Rising Pune Supergiants bought him for £350,000. Shane Watson attracted the highest bid as Royal Challengers Bangalore paid more than £950,000 for the Australian. In contrast, Kent wicketkeeper-batsman Sam Billings, who has five one-day international caps and five Twenty20 caps for England, was picked up by Delhi Daredevils for just £30,000. England seamer Chris Jordan and Essex's new limited-overs captain Ravi Bopara failed to attract a bid. England limited-overs captain Eoin Morgan is under contract at Sunrisers Hyderabad. Lancashire's Buttler has scored back-to-back ODI hundreds, the latest coming off 73 balls in the series opener against South Africa in Bloemfontein on Wednesday. The 25-year-old is taking part in the second ODI in Port Elizabeth on Saturday.

England's Jos Buttler has been bought for £385,000 by Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League (IPL) auction.

Summarize the following article: Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov warned that the move "could seriously destabilise the situation" in Ukraine. He said the US military presence "is a long way from helping towards a settlement of the conflict", Russia's RIA Novosti news agency reported. The US and its Nato allies accuse Russia of sending soldiers and weapons to the separatists in eastern Ukraine. Russian President Vladimir Putin again dismissed the Western charges on Thursday, telling millions of Russians that "there are no Russian troops in Ukraine". The rebels in the east signed a ceasefire agreement with the Ukrainian government in February, but recently the number of violations has escalated. There has been further shelling on the outskirts of rebel-held Donetsk and in the village of Shyrokyne, near the southern port city of Mariupol. Ukraine's national guard has been involved in the fighting. It includes various volunteer units who are now being integrated with the Ukrainian regular army. The US Army said the US paratroopers were part of the 173rd Airborne Brigade. The training will take place at Yavoriv, near Lviv in western Ukraine. The US forces will begin training three battalions of Ukrainian troops over the next six months, the statement said. The brigade trained with Ukrainian forces in international exercises in Ukraine last September.

About 300 US paratroopers have come to western Ukraine to train with Ukrainian national guard units, the US Army says.

Summarize the following article: A rib injury meant Ball only featured off the bench against Japan. The 25-year-old impressed during the Scarlets' 15-10 Pro12 win over Welsh rivals Cardiff Blues on New Year's Day. "He's very keen to make a mark and over the past few weeks he's done that against some quality opposition," said New Zealander Pivac. "I'm very pleased for Jake. He is a man on a mission. "He picked up the injury just before the autumn series and that slowed him down and he only got the one opportunity off the bench." Pivac said Ball was "colossal" against Blues - a match watched by Wales interim coach Rob Howley. He is due to name his Six Nations squad later this month, with Wales' first match against Italy on 5 February. Ball's appearance in the 33-30 win over Japan brought him his 21st cap, but he has not started since the 2015 Rugby World Cup.

Lock Jake Ball is a "man on a mission" after making just one appearance during Wales' autumn international series, says Scarlets coach Wayne Pivac.

Summarize the following article: The Gentlemans Retreat in Bawtry can also host poker nights and show 18-rated films. Doncaster Council granted permission but has imposed a restriction on under-18s being on the premises. But owner James Herrington said the ban on children was unfair and he is appealing against the decision. He said: "They won't allow under 18s into the building whatsoever - that includes some of my staff, my daughter and younger clients. "We have said it is hugely inappropriate what they have done, especially as in other bars and restaurants you can take under 18s in as long as they don't go to the bar area. "Our bar is completely separate and private." He said the bar would be members only and the tattoo parlour appointments only. "You can take children into other bars and restaurants where they can watch their parents drink until they are under the table," he said. "We are trying to create an experience which is about socialising and relaxing in a comfortable environment - it's not about getting drunk." He said poker nights, burlesque and whisky evenings were all in keeping with the theme of his business, aimed at a "particular sort of gentleman". Mr Herrington said he was now torn about whether to proceed with the plans, which he said would hit his existing trade as a result of the restriction. David Kirkham, from Bawtry Town Council, said he welcomed the decision to exclude children from the premises. He said he was still uncomfortable about the potential for the mix of activities to cause a nuisance to nearby residents.

A barber's shop business has been given permission to add a tattoo parlour, bar and put on special events, including burlesque.

Summarize the following article: Last month, police investigated thefts from six vehicles in the Castle Heather area of the city after they were left unlocked overnight. Since then, Police Scotland said there had been similar incidents in the Westhill and Hilton areas. Also, overnight on Thursday and Friday last week, thieves stole from vehicles in Scorguie and Dalneigh. Police said belongings were also thrown out from the vehicles. Ch Imps Ian Graham, Police Scotland's Inverness area commander, said: "People don't think it will happen to them, but the sad truth is that you are far more likely to become a victim if you don't take basic steps to ensure your valuables are secure. "We've received reports of thefts from right across Inverness so there is no safe place from opportunistic criminals. "Generally we live in a very safe part of the country, but I would urge people not to be complacent and lock their cars whenever they're left unattended - even for short periods of time."

Thieves have stolen money and other items from vehicles that were left unlocked across Inverness.

Summarize the following article: Louise McGowan, 27, received the message from "Kate" the day before her death from an iPhone owned by Katy McAllister, a jury was told. The medic is accused of causing Mrs McGowan's death by allegedly giving her drugs. Ms McAllister denies the charge. Det Con Stewart Woodhouse, 29, told the High Court in Edinburgh that he examined mobile phones which belonged to the two women. Mr Woodhouse said a message found on Ms McAllister's phone referred to a tattoo which Mrs McGowan was receiving from a man called Sean, who jurors heard earlier was Mrs McGowan's husband. It said: "Well I got violin 'til half one so if you want to wander down for about one or quarter past one, let yourself in and take all the medicines on top of the cooker that I've left out. "It'll look like a lot but at least four of them are different types - anti sickness - rest will be paracetamol, brufin, codeine, tramadol, which are ones I tried with you already. "They're just the ones that take an hour to work so take them nearer one so Sean can actually start tattooing at two." The message continued: "Tell him to get everything set up while you're out. "Cosy up on the couch and watch my telly for a bit. Just let yourself get more and more relaxed and sleepy - don't fight it. "Just cosy up on the couch. By the time I get back you'll feel like you've had a few G&Ts. "I'll top up with the faster acting ones when I get back and we'll get you staggering up to the shop to get tattooed by two at the latest. "How does that sound? Kate x" Mr Woodhouse said texts found on Ms McAllister's phone showed that other messages were sent to Mrs McGowan, who also replied to them. One message sent to Ms McAllister's handset said: "Okey dokey. I'll try and be a good patient though he he xxx". Later in the evening, a message sent from the medic's iPhone asked how Mrs McGowan was. Her husband replied: "Hey Katy. This is Sean on Louise's phone. Got her home. "Walking was a bad idea. She's sleeping now. Snoring away." Mr Woodhouse agreed with a suggestion made by prosecutor Tim Niven Smith that just because a text message was sent from a person's phone, it did not necessarily mean that the phone's owner had composed the text. Prosecutors allege that on 9 May, 2015, at her home address, and Voodoo Tattoo in the city's Perth Road, Ms McAllister "did recklessly and unlawfully" supply controlled and "potentially lethal" drugs to Mrs McGowan. The Crown alleges that the drugs supplied to Mrs McGowan were tramadol, diazepam and temazepam. Ms McAllister is also alleged to have supplied Mrs McGowan with codeine, diphenhydramine and cyclizine. The indictment states Mrs McGowan, of Dundee, "ingested" the drugs and died a day later. The trial before judge Graham Buchanan QC continues.

A woman who was allegedly killed by a Dundee doctor received a text telling her to "take all the medicines on top of the cooker that I've left out", a trial heard.

Summarize the following article: The 150-year-old tree on Vernon Road, Dore, called "Vernon" by supporters, is causing disruption to the pavement. Ann Anderson, a campaigner, said: "To consider taking down a tree of this importance and bio-diversity is absolute madness". The felling is part of city-wide maintenance project Streets Ahead to upgrade roads, pavements and bridges. Councillor Bryan Lodge said: "The Streets Ahead tree programme affects less than 1% of the city's tree stock." Campaigners gathered round the threatened tree which has been adorned with ribbons and slogans to sing protest songs. Protests as other trees were felled in the city have resulted in a number of arrests. Mr Lodge said: " A tree is only replaced if it's dead, dying, diseased, dangerous, damaging footpaths or roads or discriminatory by obstructing pavements. "Every tree is replaced on a one for one basis and during the initial five-year investment period of the contract, around 6,000 trees will be replaced out of the city's 4,000,000 trees." Ms Anderson, of Save Dore, Totley and Bradway Trees, said: "We don't contest the felling of dead or diseased trees but this tree is healthy, and they're the ones we contest." The Independent Tree Panel, set up to review the felling decisions, has said: "It is a very fine specimen, in excellent condition, with a further 150 years life expectancy." The panel also said there was a "strong arboricultural case for retaining this tree". Despite some disruption to the pavement and kerb, a solution could be found, the panel added. In 2016 a High Court judge dismissed a bid for a judicial review into the tree-felling programme.

About 100 campaigners have been celebrating the life of an oak tree earmarked for felling in Sheffield.

Summarize the following article: He assaulted patients in bed, and claimed to have abused corpses, reviews into his conduct on NHS premises found. The reports cover 28 hospitals including Leeds General Infirmary and Broadmoor psychiatric hospital. Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt apologised to victims, saying Savile's actions "will shake our country to the core". Savile, a Radio 1 DJ who also presented the BBC's Top Of The Pops and Jim'll Fix It, died aged 84 in October 2011 - a year before allegations that he had sexually abused children were broadcast in an ITV documentary. The reports on Leeds General Infirmary and Broadmoor are detailed and, at times, graphic. They explain how Savile was allowed unsupervised access to vulnerable patients, with a failure to question the risks of his unconventional and promiscuous lifestyle. The Leeds investigation found: Mr Hunt told the Commons one victim being treated at Leeds General Infirmary feared she was pregnant after being abused. There were also reports that Savile made jewellery out of glass eyes taken from dead bodies from the hospital mortuary, he told MPs. Sixty people have recounted how they were abused by Savile at Leeds General Infirmary, many were young people and teenagers. One victim "Jane" - who was 16 when she was assaulted - told the BBC Savile took her to a local shop to buy sweets and magazine, but soon afterwards sexually assaulted her in a hospital basement. "He pulled me in immediately and started to kiss me with his tongue", she said. "At the same time his left hand went on to my right thigh under my dress." "There was no conversation up until that point. I couldn't have said anything even if I'd wanted to, because he had his tongue in my mouth, which wasn't pleasant". After the assault she said she felt "dirty and ridiculously stupid". She said she began to tell nurses about the incident but when they laughed felt she couldn't finish. "All the staff accepted it, patients accepted it, clearly the porters accepted it as well." Mr Hunt apologised on behalf of the government and the NHS, saying of the victims: "We let them down badly." The health secretary said there was a "deep sense of revulsion" over the findings. By Nick TriggleHealth correspondent Why the NHS must heed the lessons of Savile He added: "As a nation, at that time we held Savile in our affection as a somewhat eccentric national treasure with a strong commitment to charitable causes. "Today's report shows that in reality he was a sickening and prolific sexual abuser who repeatedly exploited the trust of a nation for his own vile purposes." Mr Hunt is writing to all NHS trusts asking them to ensure they are confident about patient safety. A spokesman for Prime Minister David Cameron said he was "deeply shocked", adding it was "important lessons are learned". The Leeds report was clear that no one person is to blame for what happened at the hospital other than Savile. But it did describe a lack of curiosity about his activities. Lesley McLean, Victim Support manager for West Yorkshire, said: "The parents of the children [Savile] abused in Leeds hospitals were already anxious about their child's health. "What they thought was a treat for their loved one was actually their worst nightmare." Leeds Teaching Hospitals Trust issued a statement apologising to "each and every one of Savile's victims". "There should have been far more scrutiny of him and what he was doing at our hospitals over the years, and more robust safeguards and internal controls in place to protect our staff and patients in our care," chief executive Julian Hartley said. In 1988, Savile was appointed by the Department of Health as the head of a taskforce overseeing Broadmoor. The report describes an inappropriate culture at Broadmoor that allowed sexual liaisons between staff and patients and discouraged reporting of concerns. The Broadmoor report found: The report said the numbers were very likely to be an underestimate of the true picture because so many former patients simply wished to forget their time at Broadmoor. Noami Stanley, a psychiatric nurse who treated patients who told her they had been abused by Savile at Broadmoor, said police and senior medical staff dismissed her concerns as an "irritation". She told BBC Radio 4's World at One: "I explained what I heard and what I believed was going on in Broadmoor. "There was a pair of police officers who appeared surprised and looked immediately to my superiors as if to say 'do something about this woman, she's nuts'." She said of the senior nursing officer present: "He gave me quite a severe ticking office and said if I ever ever spoke out of turn like that again I would receive a disciplinary and might get sacked." Marjorie Wallace - now chief executive of the charity Sane - also visited the hospital regularly in the 1980s when she was researching a book. She said there was "obviously something sinister" about the DJ and attempted to raise the alarm after witnessing his treatment of two female patients: "I went to the Department of Health and said 'What is Jimmy Savile doing here?" But she says she was told Savile was bringing Broadmoor out of the "dark ages" and that he was a "good person, liberating this closed institution". Labour's Andy Burnham said giving Savile "gold-plated keys" to the hospital was "one of the greatest failures in public protection and patient safety we've ever seen". The shadow health secretary called for an over-arching, independent inquiry into the scandal. "It would appear Savile was appointed to this role without any background checks at all," he told the BBC. "There needs to be more independent scrutiny of how the government of the day handled this." Reports have been issued on: St Catherine's Hospital (Birkenhead); Saxondale Mental Health Hospital; Portsmouth Royal Hospital; Dewsbury and District Hospital (including Pinderfields Hospital); High Royds Psychiatric Hospital; Cardiff Royal Infirmary; Great Ormond Street Hospital; Exeter Hospital; Ashworth Hospital; Barnet General Hospital; Booth Hall; De La Pole Hospital; Dryburn Hospital; Hammersmith Hospital; Leavesden Secure Mental Health Hospital; Marsden Hospital; Maudsley Hospital; Odstock Hospital; Prestwich Psychiatric Hospital; Queen Victoria Hospital, East Grinstead; Royal Victoria Infirmary; Queen Mary's Hospital, Carshalton; Whitby Memorial Hospital; Wythenshawe Hospital, and Woodhouse Eaves Children's Convalescent Homes in Leicester. A report about Wheatfield's Hospice, which is run by the Sue Ryder charity, has also been released. Leicestershire Police has launched an investigation after one victim of Savile, who was abused as a young boy at a children's convalescent home in Woodhouse Eaves, told an enquiry team the entertainer was involved in the death of another child. However, no reference to a child's death could be found in the records of the home, Roecliffe Manor, which closed in 1969. Since the allegations about Jimmy Savile came to light, the police have looked into how many victims there may have been. A review of why he was never prosecuted has also been carried out. But this is the most comprehensive account of how he was able to offend and get away with it for so long. Reviews into his behaviour at the BBC and care homes are expected later this year - and will no doubt shed even more light on the scandal. But for now the failings of the NHS - an institution that is there to care for the vulnerable - are in the spotlight. He enjoyed unsupervised access, particularly at two sites, Leeds General Infirmary and Broadmoor psychiatric hospital, and was able to use his fame to intimidate junior staff. What is more, senior management were too unquestioning. The reports are loathe to blame individuals. But with cases of abuse and improper conduct being reported up until 2009 - albeit much less frequently than in the 1960s and 1970s - the NHS has a lot of soul-searching to do. A key report into Savile's activities at Stoke Mandeville Hospital has been delayed after new information recently came to light. Savile had a bedroom at Stoke Mandeville, where his now-defunct charitable trust was based, as well as an office and living quarters at Broadmoor. Reports concerning two other hospitals - Rampton and Barnet, Enfield and Haringey Mental Health Trust - have also been delayed. There are also new investigations at Springfield Hospital and Crawley Hospital. It is understood investigations at two hospitals - the Royal Free Hospital in London and Pennine Acute NHS hospitals Trust - found nothing to report. The revelations made in a 2012 ITV documentary about Savile prompted more than 100 people to come forward, giving accounts of how they were sexually assaulted by Savile on NHS premises and in other places. A report by the NSPCC said Savile abused at least 500 victims, including some as young as two. BBC health reporter Pippa Stephens said there have been many significant changes in the law since the time Savile committed abuse.

Ex-BBC DJ Jimmy Savile sexually assaulted victims aged five to 75 in NHS hospitals over decades of unrestricted access, investigators say.

York City manager Jackie McNamara told BBC Radio York: Media playback is not supported on this device "We're delighted with the draw, but disappointed with our ball retention. "The difference in the first half was that everything was sticking with their centre forwards, where it was breaking off ours. "I was delighted with the point in the end. I thought our subs made a real difference and brought energy. If it had gone on a bit longer we might have got the three points."

Summarize the following article: Dominic Raab, who backs EU exit, said EU nationals whose activities are of concern but about whom there is no clear intelligence have a "free pass" into the UK due to free movement rules. Debate on security within the EU has intensified since the Brussels attacks. Pro-EU campaigners say the UK will lose access to key information by leaving. Prime Minister David Cameron has insisted co-operation among 28 states makes the UK safer while former security service officials have expressed contrasting views about the importance of EU membership with regard to intelligence sharing arrangements with the US and other allies. Mr Raab's intervention, in a speech in London, marks a continued focus by Leave campaigners on the issue of security and what they argue are the risks of EU membership. On Tuesday, those calling for an Out vote in the 23 June referendum released a list of 50 foreign criminals they say have been allowed into the UK because of freedom of movement rules giving EU nationals visa-free entry. Speaking to BBC Radio 4's Today programme ahead of his speech, Mr Raab said the UK had been able to stop only 6,000 EU citizens from entering the UK, compared to "67,000" from outside the EU. He said this was because EU rules meant EU nationals could only be barred if they presented "a genuine, serious and current threat". Criminal convictions alone were not enough to block entry, he said. Mr Raab said this was "a very serious chink in our security apparatus and it is a direct result of EU". In his speech the justice minister argued that the sheer number of people who could legally come to the UK from the EU made it "exponentially harder" for those presenting a "credible and current danger" to be monitored and stopped. Although the UK is not a member of the Schengen borderless travel zone and carries out passport checks, Mr Raab said the current system reduces the capacity for effective surveillance and leaves the UK effectively "importing risk". "Crucially, for UK intelligence agencies, we cannot bar individuals on whom we have sketchy intelligence but reason to believe may be linked to terrorist related or other serious criminal activity. Or who may have done something which gives rise to questions, such as visiting Syria, without a clear or credible reason," he said. He added: "EU rules set the bar for taking meaningful action impossibly high, which means we effectively have to give a free pass into Britain to those coming from the EU." UKIP leader Nigel Farage caused controversy in the immediate aftermath of the Brussels attacks by claiming the city had become the "jihadi capital of Europe" and EU border rules led to "the free movement of terrorists, of criminal gangs and of Kalashnikovs". Mr Raab stopped short of saying this, arguing it was "too early" to tell to what extent Schengen rules helped those behind the attacks, but he insisted "regaining control over our borders would be a valuable defensive tool in protecting Britain from future terrorist attacks". Former shadow home secretary Yvette Cooper, part of the pro-EU campaign group Britain Stronger in Europe, said it was "desperate, false and irresponsible stuff" from the leave campaign. She said the UK was outside Schengen and "can operate full borders and security checks", while the home secretary had the power to bar any foreign national considered "a threat". Leaving the EU would make cross-border co-operation to fight crime and terrorism "so much harder", she added. Meanwhile, Mr Cameron, who will return to the EU campaign trail next week after the Easter recess, has been warned that he will only win the referendum by putting forward a "positive and inclusive" vision of the benefits of the EU membership. A group of peers has said the PM must focus on articulating the shared values that different European countries have in common. The House of Lords EU committee said relying on "narrow national economic self-interest, alongside fear of the alternatives" would not be enough to ensure an In vote in three months' time. "It needs to try and capture the spirit we saw in Wembley last year when England football fans sang the Marseillaise after the attacks in Paris," said Lord Boswell, the former Tory MP who chairs the committee.

Being in the EU makes it harder to stop serious criminals and those with suspected terror links entering the UK, a government minister says.

Annacotty held on from the fast-finishing Buywise, with Sound Investment third and Double Ross fourth. Popham, who has endured an injury-plagued career, was congratulated afterwards by Keighley. "That was the most incredible feeling. I thought my career was on its backside," said Popham. King added: "Ian has been riding him at home and reckoned he was in good form and the change of scenery has probably helped freshen him up a little." Favourite Kings Palace, trained by David Pipe, finished down the field in 11th place. Jockeys wore black armbands with tricolours as a mark of respect for the victims of the Paris attacks in which at least 128 people were killed.

"While injury is part and parcel of being a jump jockey, Popham's had more than his fair share. "So a great day for him against better-fancied, better-known rivals, and little wonder he was emotional about it afterwards. The horse has recently moved stables and is clearly on good terms with himself; a return to Cheltenham for the big steeplechase in mid-December seems likely."

Summarize the following article: A 56-year-old man was seriously wounded at Leytonstone in east London at 19:06 GMT on Saturday. The knifeman reportedly shouted "this is for Syria". A man, 29, was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder and a residential address in London is being searched. The 56-year-old is believed to be in a stable condition in hospital. A second man received minor injuries in the attack and a woman was threatened but unhurt. Police used a Taser on the suspect, who remains in police custody. The stabbing is being investigated by the Metropolitan Police Service's counter terrorism officers. British Transport Police said in the wake of the attack it had increased its patrols and visibility around stations. More uniformed and plain clothes officers have also been deployed, supported by armed officers, CCTV cameras and police dogs, it said. Frankie McCamley, BBC News, reporting from the scene on Sunday: Walking through the station the mood was somewhat different to the mayhem the evening before. Police officers were on hand answering questions from people who had heard about the attack. Many were on edge, shocked at what had happened. Others said this kind of terror was something they almost expected. One local shopkeeper arriving into work this morning said: "I'm devastated, I don't want to live in fear, but now I feel vulnerable". Local residents explained how they felt anxious about using the Tube today and considered other routes. But, they said they wanted to stand defiant against terrorism and get back to normal daily life as quickly as possible. Downing Street said it was monitoring the situation closely. Fellow passengers reportedly shouted at the man to drop his weapon and one person shouted "You ain't no Muslim bruv," a sentiment that has been picked up on social media by people trying to disown and sideline the attacker. Commander Richard Walton, of the counter terrorism unit said: "I am aware that there were a number of members of the public in the underground station who filmed the suspect on their mobile phones during and after the attack and I would urge them to come forward and speak to us and share with us the filming that they carried out. "I would continue to urge the public to remain calm, but alert and vigilant. The threat from terrorism remains at severe, which means that a terrorist attack is highly likely." A witness told the BBC he saw a man holding a knife, about 3in (7.5cm) long, standing over another man who was lying on the ground, and people running out of the Central Line station. Michael Garcia, 24, a financial analyst from Leytonstone, said he was walking along an underground passage that runs through the station when he saw people running outside. "I realised it wasn't a fight but something more sinister," he said. He said he saw "a guy, an adult, lying on the floor with a guy standing next to him brandishing a knife of about three inches... maybe a hobby knife". "It had a thin blade, but looked fairly long," Mr Garcia said. Roy Ramm, a former Met Police commander, said the attack appeared to be "random" and was "not like the Lee Rigby attack on a soldier". He said the knifeman did not appear to have an exit strategy. Leytonstone Islamic Association released a statement in which it strongly condemned any sort of violence.

Police investigating a "terrorist incident" at an east London Tube station have urged witnesses who filmed the stabbing to share their footage with detectives.

Summarize the following article: David Cameron said an international dementia institute would be established in England over the next five years in a bid to make the UK a world leader for research and medical trials. Some 1.3 million NHS workers will also receive additional training in how to care for people with dementia. The PM said dementia was "one of the greatest challenges of our lifetime". There are approximately 850,000 people living with dementia in the UK, with the number expected to hit a million within the next 10 years. The government said a separate multimillion-pound fund would be launched within weeks to help establish an international investment scheme to discover new drugs and treatments that could slow the onset of dementia, or even deliver a cure, by 2025. It hopes the global fund will bring together investment from the private, public and philanthropic sectors under a single scheme to pay for research projects into the disease. Faster assessments by GPs are also included in the prime minister's challenge on dementia 2020 plans. The prime minister first launched the dementia challenge for England in March 2012, building on the previous government's national dementia strategy. Mr Cameron visited High Wycombe to meet people with dementia and dementia friends – people who are able to spot signs of the illness and help sufferers. He said: "What today's announcement is about is a very simple but bold ambition, and that is to make the United Kingdom the best place on the planet in terms of researching into dementia, in terms of diagnosing people with dementia and then in terms of treating, helping and caring for them." The NHS workers receiving extra training on how to provide best standards of care for people with dementia will range from surgeons to hospital porters, the government said. There are also plans to give three million more "dementia friends" training in how to support those with the condition. Other pledges include having the majority of people in England living in "dementia-friendly communities" in five years' time by making shops, transport and other public places more accessible to people with the condition. Labour's shadow health secretary Andy Burnham welcomed the announcement but said more needed to be done to support dementia sufferers now. He said: "Hundreds of thousands of vulnerable older people have lost social care support since David Cameron entered Downing Street. Social care in England is close to collapse but this government is in denial about it." Professor Simon Lovestone, from Oxford University, said recent trials for new drugs had failed. "We now need to do better clinical trials, we need to do them earlier in the disease process, and for that we need tests for early diagnosis and we need better drugs," he said. "And I think that the announcement that's been made today, together with the investment that's already been made in the UK, puts the UK at the leading front of a truly international effort that will actually deliver on this." Professor Nigel Hooper, dementia researcher at the University of Manchester, told BBC Breakfast £300m was "a great investment" but said cancer research received five times as much funding globally as dementia. Initial dementia assessments will take place in an average of six weeks and will be followed by support such as informing sufferers of local services that can help them, as well as advice for their carers.

More than £300m is to be spent by the government on research into dementia, the prime minister has announced.

Summarize the following article: The UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says it is not clear who carried out the attack against the Jabhat Fateh al-Sham group, formerly known as Nusra Front. Russia and Turkey say the group is not included in a ceasefire deal in Syria. Meanwhile, rebel groups say they are halting preparations for peace talks. A statement signed by a number of groups cited "many big breaches" by the Syrian government and its allies as a reason. The ceasefire was brokered by Turkey and Russia last Thursday and has mostly held since then. Peace talks were planned for later this month in Astana, Kazakhstan. The Syrian Observatory said it could not determine if the strikes, in the countryside of Idlib province, were carried out by the US-led coalition or Russia. Among the dead were leading members of Jabhat Fateh al-Sham, which was holding a meeting there, the Observatory added, without identifying them. Many others were wounded, it said. Abu Anas al-Shami, a Jabhat Fateh al-Sham spokesman, said in a statement the attacks were carried out by the US-led coalition. "The headquarters targeted by the international coalition a short time ago are a main headquarters for that area and contains a number branch offices, leading to the killing of the brothers," he said in a statement quoted by Reuters news agency. Jabhat Fateh al-Sham changed its name last July and announced it was splitting from al-Qaeda. Members of the group are currently operating as part of a rebel alliance that controls Idlib province, the main rebel stronghold after eastern Aleppo was retaken by Syrian government forces last month. As well as the Jabhat Fateh al-Sham, the ceasefire deal excludes so-called Islamic State (IS) and the Syrian Kurdish Popular Protection Units (YPG) militia, according to the Syrian army, but the exclusion is disputed by the rebels.

Air strikes in northern Syria have killed at least 25 members of a prominent jihadist group, including senior figures, monitors say.

Summarize the following article: Children's charity Barnardo's Cymru is raising awareness to mark International Missing Children's Day on Thursday. Its report with Glyndŵr University last year said 80% of children deemed at significant risk of sexual exploitation had previously gone missing overnight. The charity said it is a "hidden form of abuse". Barnardo's Cymru's Missing Service in south Wales has four child sexual exploitation (CSE) and missing practitioners across the police force area. They work with children and young people who have gone missing from home, even if they have only been away a few hours. Together with the police they work to identify and help vulnerable children at risk of being targeted for child sexual exploitation through gangs and individual perpetrators. Practitioner Sarah-Jane Davies said: "This is a particularly hidden form of abuse which can often happen within the context of relationships. "Young people can be targeted online, at a party or elsewhere in the community. "Often adults will target young people due to their vulnerabilities and look to employ grooming tactics which are designed to build a trusting relationship with the child for the purpose of sexual exploitation. "Social media can compound the risks to young people. Many are unaware of the risks associated with sharing images and personal information online." Ms Davies added: "Every young person has a different story and often it is difficult for them to tell it, particularly if they don't trust those around them. "Many young people are unable to recognise that they have been groomed or exploited." Awareness events have been held for Police Community Support Officers to be better equipped at identifying young people who are vulnerable or a victim of CSE. NSPCC Cymru urged people to sign up to the Child Rescue Alert scheme to help find missing children as soon as possible.

Twenty one children in Wales were considered to be potential victims of exploitation last year, according to National Crime Agency figures.

Summarize the following article: The Scotland lock has been forced to have further surgery for the broken forearm he picked up in October's European Challenge Cup game with Lyon. Edinburgh said in a statement: "Grant has, unfortunately, fallen into a percentage of people who can have a delayed healing response." Gilchrist picked up his injury shortly after being named Scotland captain. New national coach Vern Cotter had earmarked the 24-year-old to lead the squad in the autumn Tests against Argentina, New Zealand and Tonga. But Gilchrist did not feature in any of the games because of his injury. The decision for revision surgery was taken after consultation with upper limb specialist Mr Doug Campbell at Spire Hospital Leeds," added Edinburgh's statement. "Following a period of rest, Grant will continue his rehabilitation under the care of the Edinburgh Rugby and Scotland medical teams."

Edinburgh vice-captain Grant Gilchrist has been ruled out for the rest of the season through injury.

Summarize the following article: On the agenda will be choosing a replacement for chief executive Martin Winterkorn, who resigned on Wednesday. Reports have said that the front-runner for the top job is Porsche chief executive Matthias Mueller. VW is also expected to dismiss executives tainted by the scandal over the rigging of emissions tests by software in its diesel cars in the US. Some investors have suggested that appointing a new chief executive only two days after the old one resigned might be rushing things. Sasja Beslick from Nordea, which is one of Volkswagen's biggest investors, told the BBC: "I think this is just a panic reaction from the board of the company." But he added that there could be benefits from a quick appointment. "They really need to reinstate the trust of the markets and one of the potential best ways of doing that is to appoint a new head and try to tie all the bad or irresponsible things to the old one." It is also being reported that VW may be discussing changes to its corporate structure. 11 million Vehicles affected worldwide €6.5bn Set aside by VW $18bn Potential fines No. 1 Global carmaker in sales I'm a VW owner - what should I do? What next for VW? Car emissions tests: Not fit for purpose? VW boss Winterkorn's highs and lows VW scandal explained Also on Friday, further details of the brands and locations of the 11 million cars involved in the scandal are due to be set out. US authorities found that software in a particular diesel engine used by Volkswagen could detect when it was being tested and reduce the emissions produced. It meant that the emissions in actual driving were considerably higher than those found during testing. German Transport Minister Alexander Dobrindt announced on Friday that the rigging of emissions tests involved light vans and not just cars. On Thursday, the UK regulator announced that it would be launching its own investigation into emissions testing. The Vehicle Certification Agency plans to re-run lab tests where necessary and then compare the results with emissions from "real-world" testing conditions. The European Commission has already agreed a Real Driving Emission (RDE) test procedure, which it will introduce next year, but it has not yet decided what to do if there is a significant different between lab tests and RDE tests. The VW board is meeting. So what can we expect? A new chief executive for a start, and the name on everyone's lips is that of Matthias Mueller, the Porsche CEO. There are others in the frame, but Mr Mueller is the clear favourite. On the other side of the coin, more heads will roll. Four names are being bandied around in the German press and they are all very senior people. Following the resignation of Martin Winterkorn earlier this week, it's looking like a major bloodletting exercise. And VW tell us we should get more precise details about which brands and models carried the so-called "defeat switch" designed to get cars through emissions tests, while allowing them to spew out illegal levels of pollution. So yes, it could be quite a day here in Wolfsburg. Matthias Mueller comes from an engineering background and certainly knows the brands involved, having joined VW-owned Audi in 1977. He was put in charge of all vehicle projects for Volkswagen in 2003. He is seen as a likely successor because he is popular with the families that control VW. He was already being cited as a likely successor to Mr Winterkorn in April, during the power struggle with then-chairman Ferdinand Piech. Porsche is owned by Volkswagen, but confusingly, VW itself is controlled by Porsche SE, the holding company, which Mr Mueller is already on the board of. Another potential successor is Herbert Diess, the current head of the Volkswagen brand. Mr Diess only joined VW from BMW in July, so will not be tainted by the scandal. He had a reputation for cost-cutting at BMW, having worked across the group, including a spell at BMW's Mini plant in Oxford. Given the losses already expected as a result of the emissions scandal, cost-cutting is likely to be a priority. If the board decides to look outside Volkswagen it may consider Elmar Degenhart, chairman and chief executive of the tyremaker Continental. Being head of a supplier to the car industry means he would be safe even if the investigations sparked by the emissions scandal were to extend to other car companies. Hans Dieter Potsch, who began his career at BMW, is chief financial officer of both Volkswagen and the controlling Porsche SE. He was tipped earlier this month to become the new chairman of VW, replacing Ferdinand Piech, although he could not do so until he had been elected onto the supervisory board by shareholders in November. His reported board-level support for the post suggests he could also be brought in as chief executive. Rupert Stadler heads up VW's Audi brand, and is the third of the big brand-bosses in the frame to potentially be the next overall chief executive. Being in charge of Audi also puts him in control of Ducati, Lamborghini and a chunk of Bayern Munich football club. Before the emissions scandal he was being tipped as a possible replacement for Hans Dieter Potsch as chief financial officer. He is unusual among the frontrunners because he comes from a finance background instead of engineering.

The board of scandal-hit Volkswagen meets on Friday to shake up its management.

Summarize the following article: Carmel Bloom, 54, from Ilford, Essex, died after surgery at the privately-run Bupa Roding Hospital, where she worked. A coroner ruled she was not unlawfully killed, but failure to perform certain actions contributed to her death. Bupa offered condolences but said, as it no longer owns the hospital, could not comment further. Ms Bloom died on 8 September 2002, after undergoing surgery to remove a kidney stone on 28 August. Coroner Karon Monaghan QC, sitting at the Royal Courts of Justice, said a series of "absences" had contributed to her death. Her "vital signs were not consistently recorded", the coroner said, despite instructions from a consultant urological surgeon they should be checked every 30 minutes, the coroner said. Ms Bloom's blood pressure continued to fall and by 02:00 BST on 29 August she was septic, the coroner said. The consultant urologist was not called until 02.55 and arrived 20 minutes later while the consultant anaesthetist was not called until 04.29, by which time Ms Bloom was suffering from pulmonary oedema, the coroner said. The first inquest in 2003 found Ms Bloom died of natural causes, but that verdict was quashed by the High Court in December 2004. A second inquest in 2005 at West London Coroner's Court found lack of post-operative care contributed to her death. That finding, deemed inadequate by the Bloom family, was also quashed. The family has said fresh evidence, including an expert report and a 999 call where the night sister at the private hospital described the seriousness of Carmel's condition to emergency services, should give a full picture of how she came to die. She was rushed to Whipps Cross intensive therapy unit (ITU), Ms Monaghan QC said, but the anaesthetist did not intubate and ventilate Ms Bloom, or attach equipment which would have allowed for monitoring during the transfer. "Shortly after arrival at ITU Carmel Bloom went into cardiac arrest. She experienced severe hypoxic brain injury and did not regain consciousness", she said. Ms Bloom remained on life support until September 8 when the decision was taken to turn the machine off. She died after her blood pressure fell and she had another cardiac arrest. After the hearing, Ms Bloom's brother Bernard said: "Carmel was let down and the system has badly let down the family." He said: "This has taken over 14 years. I could not have done this any quicker. "It was bad enough what happened to Carmel, but what happened to the family, it is a disgrace. It is the system that needs to be amended." A spokeswoman for Bupa, which owned Roding Hospital in 2002, said: "We sympathise with Carmel Bloom's family for their loss. "Her colleagues at the hospital were all deeply affected by this tragic incident. "As we no longer own the hospital, it's not appropriate for us to comment any further."

Medics could have done more to save the life of a woman who died after a routine kidney stone operation, a third inquest into her death has ruled.

Summarize the following article: In January, the US Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) granted Cuba the trademark rights to Havana Club. The decision would allow Cuba to sell rum with a Havana Club label in the US when the embargo is lifted. Bermuda-based Bacardi has been selling rum under the Havana Club label in the US since the 1990s. In a statement Bacardi's general counsel Eduardo Sánchez said: "OFAC has acted in violation of well-settled US law and Congressional intent in a covert action that is unjustified in law." Bacardi has been fighting for decades with Cuba and spirits distributor Pernod Ricard, which has a joint venture with the Cuban government to sell Havana Club label rum worldwide except in the US. In 2006 OFAC rejected the Cuban government's application to renew its trademark of the Havana Club label, citing a law that prevents trademark registration for labels that have been expropriated. In January, OFAC changed course and allowed Cuba to renew its trademark on Havana Club. The battle for the label has intensified since diplomatic relations between the US and Cuba were restored in 2015. The Bacardi family left Cuba in 1960 when Fidel Castro came to power and claims to have purchased the Havana Club label from its original makers - the Arechabala family - before the communist government seized the distillery. Bacardi's Havana Club rum is made in Puerto Rico.

Rum-maker Bacardi has called for US authorities to reverse a decision granting the Cuban government rights to the Havana Club label.

Summarize the following article: Det Con Michael Stokes and ex-colleague Det Sgt Stephen Phillips deny taking cash found in a Swansea safe in 2011. Det Con Stokes told Cardiff Crown Court he was "wind-up merchant". Earlier on Monday, the jury was directed to find a third officer, Det Con Christopher Evans, 38, from Llangennech, not guilty of theft. The trial has previously heard from a colleague who told the court Det Con Stokes admitted taking cash from a drug dealer. But taking to the witness stand for the first time on Monday, Det Con Stokes said the admission was "not serious". "I'd been branded a thief. My reputation had gone. My name had gone and I didn't understand why anyone was taking it seriously," he said. He told the jury: "I'm extremely childish and I'm a wind-up merchant." The court heard his pranks included persuading a colleague to eat pot pourri, tricking another officer into thinking he was sending messages to a long-standing crush, and giving another a fake £20,000 lottery scratchcard. Earlier the jury heard his co-defendant Mr Phillips was dismissed from the force after pleading guilty to a £250 theft. The court was told he was caught after an "integrity test", in which a staged raid was carried out. He was seen taking £240 from a coat and £10 from a bedside cabinet. The trial continues.

A South Wales Police detective who denies stealing £30,000 in a raid has told a jury he was not serious when he told a colleague he had taken money.

Summarize the following article: Scottish Water has operated the plant at Ardersier for years but said improvements were needed because of new housing and to protect sealife. Residents of the Moray Firth village oppose the expansion and want other sites to be considered for a new plant. Mirren has issued a statement supporting their campaign. The star of movies The Queen and RED married her husband, American film director Taylor Hackford, in a ceremony in Ardersier Parish Church in 1997. They had been staying at nearby Castle Stuart at the time. In her statement, she said: "It is with absolute horror that I heard about the proposed sewage plant at Ardersier. "This is a small and authentic community, rooted in the landscape and the sea. The people of Ardersier have lived there for generations, quietly getting on with their lives, working within the environment. "Ardersier is not one of the famed beauty spots of Scotland; if it were, there would rightly be a huge outcry against this plan. "However, Ardersier is as important to the history and beauty of Scotland as Loch Lomond or Fort William or any of the great tourist attractions, because Ardesier is quietly where the real Scotland is." Locals opposed to the project have concerns about smell from the plant and believe that there are more suitable sites for it. Scottish Water said it was investing more than £11m in "a package of essential improvement projects", which includes the upgrading and enhancement of the current waste water treatment works at Ardersier. Director of strategic customer service planning Simon Parsons said: "We are required to carry out some upgrades to protect and enhance the environment of the Moray Firth, particularly for the benefits of dolphins in the water. "There is also expected to be significant housing and economic growth in the area served by the facility in the years ahead." He added: "These improvements were planned thoroughly and in discussion with different agencies, prior to community engagement activity which took place before planning permission was obtained in 2011 for the treatment works upgrade. "The economic situation has changed - and we now need to make sure the required waste water infrastructure is in place to meet the demands of new development, as well as to protect and enhance the environment." Mr Parsons said that before going ahead with the upgrade Scottish Water was "talking to the community, listening to their views".

Actress Dame Helen Mirren is backing a campaign opposing plans for an upgraded waste water treatment plant in the Scots village where she was married.

Summarize the following article: Bobby Madden, and his assistants, are preparing for Saturday's Scottish Cup final between Celtic and Aberdeen at Hampden. BBC Sport Scotland caught up with the whistler ahead of the game at the National Stadium to ask him about life on and off the pitch. Has this been your best year as a referee? Absolutely. We get independent observers who watch us in every match. My marks would dictate that it's been my most successful season. It's gone very well and I think that's partly down to the fact that I'm totally focused on refereeing. How do you prepare for a cup final? I'm training as normal and going through the same training programme that I would for every match. Before every match, I also look at teams' tactics: how they set up at set-pieces and corner kicks. I think 28% of goals are scored from set-pieces so it's important that referees are aware of any potential tactics or scenarios teams may run through to try to gain any advantage. So, I'm putting a lot of attention into the way both teams are set up in recent matches and matches against each other this season. Do you identify players from both sides who can help you manage the game? We're under pressure but so are the players. Some players deal with that differently but some who you deal with are always the same and you can talk to them. There are players in both teams that I know I can talk to on Saturday if there's anything I want to address or get a message to a particular player, who I think is under more pressure. How do you get on with both managers? Great, I think both of them are good guys. First and foremost, they're very good coaches and I have had several discussions with Derek over the years. Brendan's come in this year and I've been involved in [Celtic] matches and as a fourth official, so, the managers are definitely good for our game. Additional assistants at the game. How do you feel about that? We only operate with them in Scotland in the semi-finals and final of the Scottish Cup, but in Europe we use them in the group stages of the Europa League and Champions League. So, I've got a lot of experience [with them], and the additional assistants we're using on Saturday - Steven McLean and Nick Walsh - have also got good experience. So, they obviously help deal with those important key match incidents in and around the penalty area. That extra bit of support gives me confidence to referee other areas of the field of play. Should video technology be used more? Additional [assistants] are a major benefit and I think video assistant refereeing could be another benefit. It's been trialled in other countries and at the Under-20 World Cup; we're seeing good results through that. Anything that can see the referee team reach the correct decision on the field of play would be accepted readily by officials, players, spectators and everyone. Any nerves before a final? I'm okay just now. The only difference is coming to Hampden today [Thursday] to do media, which I wouldn't do for any other match; other than that I'll prepare as normal and try to stay as calm as possible. It ramps up every time you put the TV on and read the newspapers, so it's probably trying to remove yourself from that a little and treat it as best you can as a normal match. The cup final is about the stories, the players, the managers, the tactics and the goals. I think every referee and official hopes that, the evening after the cup final, that the talking point isn't the referee. Pre-match ritual? I don't have any rituals as such. Every evening before a match I'll have pasta for dinner - it's fairly standard. It's the referee's meal of choice. In the changing room, everyone has their own music that they put on. I'll have a playlist and probably add some songs in the coming days. You usually add songs that mean something to you or are more uplifting. Towards kick-off you start putting on some of the old skool dance tunes that I would've listened to growing up in about 1992/93. I've invited songs from the [referee] team but I'll have the final say as to what gets played. There are a few shocking suggestions, someone, who I won't identify, mentioned Adele. But I think I'll stick mostly to my music. Last thing you will say to assistants before heading on to pitch? Try to relax. First and foremost: enjoy walking out and take in the occasion. Then it's relax as much as you can and ensure we communicate as a team. Really focus on getting those big decisions correct… This content will not work on your device, please check Javascript and cookies are enabled or update your browser

Put yourself in the referee's shoes: how would you approach cup final day?

He's been keeping a constant watch to try to protect the nest. The colony of penguins moved into a new enclosure in March. Keeper Nick Tulley said: ''The transition into the new enclosure was so smooth and the penguin couples all settled back into their original nests. It is rare to see a successful birth happen so quickly.''

Summarize the following article: Although the format has changed over the years, and the number of participants have sky-rocketed, the principle has remained the same: Every country submits a song, then battles it out to be crowned the most popular. With the 2015 edition nearly upon us, we take a trip down memory lane and speak to some of the former winners and runners-up to find out how Eurovision changed their lives. Germany scored its first victory 33 years ago, when 17-year-old Nicole won by a clear 61 votes as the UK hosted Eurovision in Harrogate, Yorkshire. A Little Peace went on to become a big hit in many countries including the UK, where it became the 500th number one single in the charts. "I remember '82 very well, it was a great day for me," says Nicole. "I was the last one who went on stage. It was wonderful. "But the most important victory (was) that a German girl gets 12 points from Israel with a song about peace. I got an invitation from the Israeli government to go to Tel Aviv to sing in front of the soldiers. So I went. I was sitting on a chair outside the barracks [when] suddenly they came out, very young people with their weapons, and sat down in front of me on the hill. And when I started singing A Little Peace, something happened I will never forget in my life. They put down their weapons, took each other by the hand and listened to me for three minutes. It was such a great moment. "The weirdest question I get asked is how many times have you sung this song? And I say, not often enough. Look around the world, what's going on, in Syria, Ukraine. I won't get tired of singing this song as long as I know deep in the hearts of all mankind is the wish for peace." Canadian Natasha St-Pier wasn't even aware of the Eurovision Song Contest when she was asked to represent France in 2001. She scored a very respectable 142 points in Copenhagen. "I remember how stressed and nervous I was... My awful red dress and an awful hair-do!" she laughs. "I was really young at that time, people could do whatever they wanted to with my image. "I sang in half French, half English. Whose decision was it? I don't know, I was 18, I couldn't even decide if my make-up was going to be red or pink. "I always thought to have an international career you had to sing in English but after Eurovision, I could sing in French in as many countries as I wanted. "I have good memories of Copenhagen, the energy - but the three minutes my performance lasted? I have no memories at all!" The famous four-piece brought home the Eurovision crown 39 years ago and went on to score a number one hit in 33 different countries. Nicky Stevens recalls: "The one thing that really sticks in my mind is how we constantly rehearsed because of our dance routine. When we opened that song, we all had our backs to the audience and Martin had to turn round first and sing his lead and I'm always so grateful I didn't have to sing that lead! "In the early days we went through checkpoint Charlie. We've been to Czechoslovakia, Berlin, it was very exciting. And we thoroughly enjoyed it. The one lovely thing about the success of the Eurovision is the countries then invite you to come and perform. Martin Lee adds: "There are 40 countries this year, all together in harmony. Where are the politicians? They should be doing that." Loreen stormed to Eurovision victory in Azerbaijan with 372 points for her upbeat dance track Euphoria. "I didn't realise I'd won until much later. I said to my producer: 'When do we get the people's votes?' and he said: 'You already won, get up there!' "The whole experience was so wonderful, the people of Azerbaijan, too. "I'm a huge fan (of Eurovision). It's so accepting of minorities, of different types of music and people. It's serious to me - it's disrespectful to say it's a joke. We're all creators." Conchita, the self-styled 'bearded lady', took top spot in last year's contest in Copenhagen, and will be hosting the green room this year in Vienna. "Two weeks after the win, my dad called me up - [my parents] have a little hotel in Austria - and said 'thank you'. Because of me, there were so many tourists in their hotel! "I get lots of messages. From gay teenagers saying 'now I've got the strength to come out of the closet', to a lady who's been in an office for years, she watched Eurovision and decided to be a bearded lady so she could quit her job and do something she really loved. "If she'd asked me before, I'd have said, 'Don't quit your job, get a great hobby!' But she wrote to me after [she'd quit] and said she was very happy. "I'm just representing myself. I am what I am. If this is inspiring for anyone, that's a huge honour." At their 40th attempt, Finland finally took top honours at Eurovision when Lordi stomped to victory with Hard Rock, Hallelujah. "Eurovision is not a heavy metal competition, we were the wrong band in the wrong place at the right time," says their frontman, who still goes by the name of Mr Lordi. "I don't have a competitive nature at all. Whenever we hit the stage, we own it, whether it's three minutes in Eurovision or 90 minutes for our own show. "My life didn't change at all, I'm still the same dude, the band are still doing the same thing before Eurovision and after. "The only change was the awareness of the band. One night we got such huge media exposure. That is really special and uncommon for any band in our genre. There are not many heavy metal bands that are known around Europe. In our genre, that's quite special." Johnny became the first person to win twice at Eurovision - but after struggling to be taken seriously in the UK, he moved to Germany. "The Eurovision I grew up with was a gateway... the way for someone like myself to land a career that spans outside of Ireland. "When I went into it, it really wasn't about fame. But I didn't think about winning, what I thought about was making the people proud. "[Shay] Healy [who wrote What's another Year?] said to me: 'Well, you can't have sung it better than you've sung it now', and that made me happy. Then I knew I could go home. "But you weren't taken seriously by the UK - the establishment, not the people. In '87, there were ads on the underground with artists they wouldn't play, and they included Whitney Houston, Michael Bolton, myself… Why bang your head against a wall? Germany welcomed me with with open arms. I've sold something in the region of 16m records. "I never got that involved [in Eurovision afterwards]. I've always found it a bit embarrassing, it's as if people think I'm a fountain of knowledge on Eurovision. "The night of Eurovision is not about the old farts like me, it's about the winner and Conchita handing over the crown. To be seen hanging on the coat tails of Eurovision would be embarrassing for me as an artist. I think it would be the wrong thing for me to do." Sonia was a well-known act from the Stock, Aitken and Waterman stable prior to her Eurovision adventure 22 years ago. She is presenting a show on Radio 2's Eurovision pop-up station this year called The Winner Isn't. "I had a ball. I went with my boyfriend [now husband] and my sister [who sang backing vocals]. A real family affair. I was signed to Simon Cowell at the time, so he came out for a few days. I felt so proud to be asked. "Every single year I do the festivals around Eurovision... I got Sandy in the West End in Grease after Eurovision. My gay following is unbelievable since the contest. "But I was completely and utterly devastated [at coming second]. I was saying, 'don't drink the champagne, we'll have to get up and sing again', I was so convinced! We came so, so close. "Everyone else was out celebrating and I was in my own room with a bowl of soup consoling myself!" The Eurovision Song Contest 2015 takes place in Vienna, Austria, on Saturday 23 May. The semi-finals can be seen live on BBC Three on Tuesday 19 and Thursday 21 of May at 20:00BST. The grand final will be broadcast live on BBC One and BBC Radio 2. A pop-up digital radio service celebrating all things Eurovision will also run on BBC Radio 2 between Thursday 21 and Sunday 24 May.
