Summarize the following article: After being discovered by Austin Jenkins and Justin Block of indie rock band White Denim, the three honed in on what would become the 26-year-old's signature sound, harking back to classic 1960s soul singers like Sam Cooke and Otis Redding. Two songs uploaded on to Soundcloud sent the music industry into an unprecedented frenzy, with over 40 labels fighting to sign Bridges' silky tenor tones. Fast forward just a few months, with the assistance of an Apple iPhone commercial, and Bridges' debut record Coming Home has hit the top 10 of both the UK and US album charts. What are you up to at the moment? I'm at the Notting Hill Arts Club getting ready for a show tonight. Have you always wanted to be a performer? I've always loved music but the thought of performing in front of people was a scary thing. I never thought I would be in this position. So it must have been quite a game changer performing at this year's Glastonbury festival? Thankfully, I've gotten over being nervous in front of crowds. I was surprised at how many people came out for my Glastonbury set, and I loved it. We had a blast. It's great when the crowd gives that energy. I imagine the last year has been a total whirlwind… So many good things have happened in such a short amount of time. Just being able to record an album, release it and see that people are receiving it well, for starters. Does it feel surreal? Yes it does. Everything has moved so fast. I don't have time to sit and think about it so it hasn't sunk in. It's just go, go and go. But overall I'm having the best time of my life. How did your signature soul sound come about? A friend of mine heard one of my songs and asked me if Sam Cooke was one of my inspirations. I'd heard of Sam Cooke but that was it. After listening to him, I really started to see that his was the best time for R&B. It was totally different from what I was used to. I looked at that type of music and how it was created by African-Americans. As a young black man and a singer-songwriter I felt that I needed to go back to where it all started. Rather than recording digitally, I hear that you recorded your album straight to tape. That's an unusual recording process, to say the least. Yes. It's such a good thing to be able to record that way. Austin and Josh had gathered a lot of analogue recording equipment from the forties and fifties. We decided to set it all up in a warehouse and record the album using it. I recorded live so everything had to be captured in one take. No Pro Tools! Is that what makes you stand out from the rest of the crowd? Yeah, it's just about being me. I want to be set apart from everything that's out. Of course, it's going to stand out from a lot of pop music but I want it to stand out from revival music that is out there, too. I just feel my sound is very smooth and subtle, with an added Texan influence. What inspired you when writing and recording your (debut) album Coming Home? Well, when I started writing I wasn't thinking this was going to be successful. It was just me and a guitar, and I wasn't even a guitar player at that. I just wrote what felt good. When I write I think of the listener and I want them to be instantly drawn in by the first words. That's my goal. Soul and R&B music is mostly about love songs but I like to write about family and gospel. The sounds that I was really inspired by were Jessie Belvin, Johnnie Taylor, Bobby Womack, Van Morrison and of course, Sam Cooke. Are you surprised that the album charted at number 6 in the US? It's very high for a debut. It totally shocked me. Of course I'm very satisfied with what I made but I didn't think that the world would think that way. When we went to make this record we weren't thinking of being on top of the charts or that people would latch onto it. Which song on the album sums you up best as an artist? I'd choose River. It's one of my songs from the very beginning, and is definitely one of my favourites on the album. It's about spiritual foundation and is a very raw and chilled sound. Your visual aesthetic is totally in line with your music, with your black and white Instagram photos and retro fashion style. How important is your image to you? I say that visuals and sound are both equally important. It's something I started way before my record label got into the picture. When I began writing this music, it was important to have everything be consistent. I enjoy wearing vintage clothes and being classy and clean. It looks good and feels good. Is that you or is that Leon Bridges, the artist? It's not a mask that I put on. It's me - when I'm in front of people and when I'm by myself. For me there's no putting on a ball cap, graphic t-shirt, sweats and tennis shoes. You can ask any of my friends - there's no turning it off. This style, and everything about it, is something that I love. Leon Bridges' debut album Coming Home is out now on Columbia Records.

This time last year, Texan soul singer Leon Bridges was washing dishes in a local restaurant and playing gigs at coffee houses on the side.

Summarize the following article: Graham Bryden's brother Jason died in a violent attack on 4 July in Kilmarnock. Police raided the 45-year-old's home in the town on 7 July following a tip-off and found a black Taurus revolver, ammunition and heroin worth £2,590. Bryden was jailed for five years and eight months after he admitted possessing the gun, bullets and heroin. Jailing Bryden at the High Court in Glasgow, judge Lord Burns told him: "I have no reason to suppose your possession of these items was in connection with the drugs operation you were conducting from your house. "The possession of a gun and ammunition was in some marginal respect as a result of the assault on and death off your brother." The court heard that police raided Bryden's home in Kilmarnock three days after his brother's death. Advocate depute Paul Brown, prosecuting, said: "Police were concerned about the prospect of an attempt by the accused to exact retribution on the men accused of committing this crime. "There was further information available to the police that the accused was also dealing in drugs." The court heard that Bryden's home was searched and the handgun was found on top of a cabinet in the kitchen, alongside a black zipped bag containing nine rounds of ammunition. Nine wraps of heroin were found under a rug in the lounge and another in the tumble dryer. Mr Brown told the court: "The revolver was in working order, but it was in a condition that could have been hazardous to the person firing it. In the opinion of expert it could case a potentially lethal injury if fired at a person."

The brother of an alleged murder victim has been jailed for possessing a hand gun and ammunition which police feared may have been used in a revenge attack.

Summarize the following article: Emergency services were called at about 18:00 GMT on Wednesday after reports he had become cut off by the tide near Portmeirion. The Criccieth lifeboat was launched and a Caernarfon coastguard helicopter called in. But a Holyhead Coastguard spokeswoman said he "rescued himself" before retiring to the Ship Aground. The pub, in Talsarnau, is on the other side of the Dwyryd estuary from where he was believed to be missing from.

A man thought to be lost off the Gwynedd coast was in a pub, coastguards said.

Summarize the following article: In front of 16,000 fiercely partisan fans in a purpose-built outdoor arena, Frampton controlled the fight throughout and floored the champion in the fifth round. Martinez demonstrated remarkable durability to make it to the final bell but the judges scored the fight 119-108, 119-108, 118-111 - all in Frampton's favour. The 27-year-old had knocked Martinez out last February to win the European crown, only for the Spaniard to win the IBF title six months later. "I've got the world title!" Frampton told BBC Radio 5 live after adding the IBF belt. "I feel a bit emotional - it has been a long time coming, it has been a hard road. "I intend to hang on to it for a very long time." Frampton is managed and promoted by former featherweight world champion Barry McGuigan, who was such a unifying force during Northern Ireland's Troubles in the 1980s, and trained by Barry's son Shane. McGuigan Sr said after the fight: "I love him like a son - he's a part of me and I know how talented he is. "He showed us his bravery tonight and he certainly showed the skills he's got. He's really got a tremendous future ahead of him." The victory for the Tiger's Bay native, which makes him his country's first world champion since fellow Belfast fighter Wayne McCullough in 1996, provided more cause for celebrations across Northern Ireland and beyond. As well as the United Kingdom and Ireland, the fight was broadcast in the United States, South America, China, Japan and the Middle East. As for McGuigan Sr, he will be relieved as well as elated, having pumped a huge amount of money into the event (it was the country's biggest gate for a boxing match by some distance) and brought Martinez over from Spain at considerable cost. Martinez had defended his title twice since stopping Jhonatan Romero last August and promised to gain revenge over Frampton, the only man to knock him out in 35 previous fights as a professional. But overlooked by the famous Harland and Wolff cranes, next to where the Titanic was built and launched a little more than 100 years ago, Frampton was not to be denied. He won a cagey first round courtesy of a couple of snappy right crosses before the fight opened up in the second, Martinez trying his luck with some swinging right hands and Frampton having success on the counter. Frampton, fighting on the back foot for the most part, repeatedly made Martinez look clumsy in the third, suggesting that the champion was starting to unravel. The challenger continued to control proceedings in the fourth, keeping the stalking Martinez at bay with jabs and two-shot combinations, although Frampton did mix things up with one juddering uppercut. Martinez was lucky not to be docked a point at the start of the fifth, having hit a prone Frampton on the back of the head. But Frampton exacted sweet revenge, flooring his rival with a short, chopping right towards the end of the round. Martinez, bleeding from the cut over his left eye, was up almost immediately and straight back at Frampton, but was picked apart some more in the sixth. The seventh was Martinez's best round of the fight, the Spaniard landing with a couple of those looping right hands. But Frampton was back in control in the eighth, drawing Martinez on to some hurtful left-right combinations. Media playback is not supported on this device Frampton was showing a cut over the right eye at the start of the ninth, which was a difficult round to score, and the 10th round was grim stuff as both men traded toe-to-toe on the inside, although Frampton landed the cleaner shots. A battered and bruised Martinez looked close to folding in the 11th as Frampton rained blows upon him, but the man from Alicante proved that he is as game as they come by extending the contest into the final round. Martinez looked ready to go again midway through the 12th but was still trading blows when the final bell sounded. But the result was never in doubt. Frampton is now one of five world champions from the United Kingdom, alongside Carl Froch, Kell Brook, Scott Quigg and Jamie McDonnell, although those last two hold lesser versions of titles. British fight fans would now like to see Frampton fight Bury's WBA title-holder Quigg but American Chris Avalos is the IBF's mandatory challenger. Martinez was given special dispensation to fight Frampton instead of Avalos but the 24-year-old Californian is likely to get his chance next spring, especially given that he recently teamed up with British promoter Eddie Hearn. Quigg, 25, defends his portion of the WBA title (Cuba's Guillermo Rigondeaux is their so-called 'super' champion and regarded as the best in the division) against Belgium's Stephane Jamoye in Manchester on 13 September. But Frampton, who emerged from his triumphant night with a badly marked face and a damaged hand, will now take a well-earned holiday with his wife Christine and daughter Carla before weighing up his options. BBC Radio 5 live Sports Extra will be replaying commentary of the fight in full at 0900 on Sunday morning.

Northern Ireland's Carl Frampton outpointed Spain's Kiko Martinez in Belfast's Titanic Quarter to secure the world IBF super-bantamweight title.

Summarize the following article: In the doorway of a sports shop near St Paul's Cathedral, I met 62-year-old John, who had put on a union jack shirt before heading to the funeral from Suffolk. "I am here to represent the silent majority," he said. "Mrs Thatcher always stood by her views. These days there's no difference between the three current party leaders." "The current political scene is so bland," agreed his friend Tim, a former bank manager from Essex who yearned for the passion which defined the political scene during the Thatcher years. Asking why people had made the journey, again and again it came back to this same idea. Mrs Thatcher embodied something they felt had also died - conviction politics. They grieved for a time when leadership was defined by a single-minded, straightforward sense of purpose and direction. "She was a strong leader, in contrast to what we have today," Julia told me. A solicitor on maternity leave, she had brought five-month-old Freddy to witness a moment in history. "I wouldn't vote Conservative today, but I would have voted for Margaret Thatcher." With the passing of time, the nuance of events tends to fade. Like sunshine stealing back the colours from a poster in a window, history often turns our memories into black and white. So it is with Margaret Thatcher. "Which side are you on?" sang Billy Bragg in 1987, as Mrs T asked if people were "one of us". It was a time of social and political tribalism - bosses v workers, left v right, Labour v Tory. Apparently stripped of the discomfort of compromise, politics is remembered as simpler and better. Having a cup of tea before the funeral, I bumped into David Cameron's advisor Steve Hilton. Special report: Baroness Thatcher, 1925-2013 Watch as Thatcher defends Thatcherism Watch Thatcher becoming Tory leader Watch more key moments from her career "She was always a fighter," he told me. Reflecting on the recent "ding-dong" over her memory, he said: "She would see this controversy as evidence that she made great things happen, because you never make great things happen without shaking things up." I detected a disappointment that coalition politics meant a Borgen-style search for consensus. As we chatted, we were joined by the Conservative Culture Minister Ed Vaizey. "She was radical and had clear views," he said, explaining why Baroness Thatcher was such a political heroine. "She questioned everything. She constantly asked why do things have to be this way." For those few who lined the funeral route to protest at what Margaret Thatcher stood for, there was the same disappointment that contemporary politics is conducted on the middle ground. One protester, Hillary Jones, said: "So many people internationally and domestically could have done with the help of a strong lady like that, but instead she turned her back on us and she looked after the rich and the powerful. So we're here to turn our backs on her now." Among the black-suited crowds mustering in the shadow of the great dome of St Paul's, I met a group of young people, most of who were not even born when she left office. They'd come up from Wales to pay their respects. "We are all Thatcher's children," said David, who now works as a financial trader. "The consensus politics of the 1970s was not working. We needed Thatcherism." Sam, a 20-year-old history student and Conservative activist from Carmarthenshire, nodded. "She is my inspiration," he told me. His friend Alice, also 20, described Lady Thatcher as a big deal. "She had fantastic suits and hair," she said. Eon Matthews is a Falklands veteran who served in the navy and was attending as a representative of the South Atlantic Medal Association. "She was a woman who knew how to run a house," he said. "Margaret Thatcher seemed to get things done." It was a point echoed by others. Steve from Hertfordshire said that at the end of the 1970s, someone had to emerge to take matters in hand. "England was a pretty grey place pre-1979 and it had to change." He glanced up at the flat grey sky overhead.

It was a funeral conducted beneath a neutral grey sky, but many of those who lined the streets had come because Margaret Thatcher personified the very opposite of what the weather had to offer.

Summarize the following article: David Robertson and David Goodwillie never faced a criminal trial but were ordered by a civil court ruling to pay £100,000 damages to Denise Clair. She sued the pair after being "devastated" by the Crown's decision not to prosecute. Cowdenbeath FC confirmed that 30-year-old Robertson had retired from professional football. Ms Clair, who has waived her right to anonymity, claimed Robertson and Plymouth Argyle's Goodwillie raped her at a flat in Armadale, in West Lothian, after a night out in Bathgate in January 2011. She said she could not remember what happened after being in a Bathgate bar and woke up in a strange flat the following morning. The two former Dundee United players had claimed the sex was consensual. The 30-year-old originally sought £500,000 in compensation, but damages were later agreed at £100,000 in the civil action at the Court of Session in Edinburgh on Tuesday. It was the first civil case of its kind in Scotland. Cowdenbeath confirmed Robertson's retirement in a statement on its website. Donald Findlay, Cowdenbeath FC chairman, said: "I wish to thank David for all his hard work during his stay at Central Park." Plymouth Argyle said it would issue a statement on Goodwillie's future in the next few days.

Summarize the following article: Mr Johnson, from the Leave campaign, told BBC's Countryfile British fishermen needed to be freed from "crazy" EU rules. But the prime minister said the value of the UK's fishing industry had gone up over the last five years. The EU's Common Fisheries Policy sets rules for the amount of fish each country's boats can catch. Mr Cameron and Mr Johnson are leading campaigners on opposing sides of the EU referendum, to be held on 23 June. How would Brexit affect fishing waters? Under the EU's Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) European fishing fleets are given equal access to EU waters and fishing grounds up to 12 nautical miles from the coasts of EU member states. The policy also seeks to conserve fish stocks, and EU fishing quotas are imposed. Leave campaigners say EU rules have devastated British fishing, while Remain supporters say policies were helping fish levels to recover. Mr Johnson, the former London mayor, said EU restrictions had inflicted a "tragedy" on the industry and as a result the number of people involved in fishing in the UK had halved. "Look at what's happened to our coastal towns, they are areas where in many cases you've seen too much poverty. Bringing back the fishing industry in those areas would be fantastic," he said. "I'm not hostile to our friends and partners in the European Union, I just think we can do it just as well ourselves if we managed our waters. "Some of the rules, chucking back perfectly good fish to manage the quotas, I mean come on that's got to be crazy, there's got to be a better way of doing it." How the UK is affected by the Common Agricultural Policy and EU fishing policies.  But Mr Cameron said the value of the British fishing industry and fish processing industry "has gone up" during his time as prime minister. He said "big changes" had taken place, bringing in more regional control and removing the "mad discards policy". "With this greater regional control that we've managed to negotiate you're seeing fish stocks recover. "Look at the most recent figures: we're actually allowing our fishermen now to land more plaice, more cod. Over the last five years, the UK-landed fish has actually increased by 20%." He added: "Is it perfect? No. Are we better off fighting from within? Yes. Is this market vital for our farmers and our fishermen? Absolutely, yes." Source: European Commission In December last year, increases were agreed for the UK fishing industry in quotas for fish including North Sea cod. The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) said at the time the cod quota would rise by 15% and that for English Channel plaice would double. In the interview with the BBC's Countryfile, Mr Cameron also said the EU had a "mixed score card" on environmental protection - but defended measures such as protection for newts, which has often thwarted house building. "Sometimes it feels a bit over prescriptive and can be frustrating but generally speaking, actually, we have to have rules on habitat," he said. "If you look at species and biodiversity, things are getting better." Mr Johnson said leaving the EU would give the government more freedom to decide over controversial issues, such as GM crops.

David Cameron and Boris Johnson have clashed over the impact of the European Union on the UK's fishing industry.

Summarize the following article: RSPB Scotland said there had been a 15% rise since 2003, when the last survey took place, from 442 to 508 pairs. The research was carried out by experts from the wildlife charity and the Scottish Raptor Study Group. Scotland is now thought to be home to the UK's entire population of golden eagles. England's only resident golden eagle, which occupied a site near Haweswater in the Lake District, has not been seen for more than a year and is feared dead. The RSPB said the six-month survey - which the charity co-funded with Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) - showed the raptor could now be defined as having a "favourable conservation status". Numbers of golden eagles in Scotland reached very low numbers in the mid-19th Century, but have been steadily recovering since then. Duncan Orr-Ewing, head of species and land management at RSPB Scotland, said the birds were an "awe-inspiring part of our natural heritage" and welcomed the news from the survey. "Across many parts of Scotland there's been a very welcome turnaround in how people respect these magnificent birds, part of a more enlightened public attitude towards birds of prey," he said. "Increased monitoring and satellite tagging of eagles, as well as stronger sanctions against wildlife crime may be serving as effective deterrents against illegal activity, therefore helping their population to increase. "However, the continued absence of golden eagles in some areas of eastern Scotland remains a real cause for concern and suggests that much more work needs to be done." The northern Highlands and the area between the Great Glen and Stirling saw the greatest increase in numbers between 2003 and 2015, when this latest survey was carried out. Recovery also continues in much of the west Highlands and islands. However, the population west of Inverness remained stable over the past 13 years rather than grew. The RSPB said the reason behind the lack of recovery in that area was not clear, but pointed to persecution, recreation, forestry and poor weather as possible factors. A decline in the number of animals that eagles eat because of grazing pressure from deer is thought to be another possible cause. The survey also found golden eagles were not found at all in many parts of the eastern Highlands, with less than a third of these traditional "home ranges" occupied by a pair, despite being a "very productive landscapes" for these birds. The RSPB blamed the raptor's absence from these areas on persecution and said four eagles fitted with satellite tags had been found illegally killed in the central and eastern Highlands between 2009 and 2013. And in August, it emerged that eight golden eagles had vanished in the Monadhliath mountains, south-east of Inverness, in less than five years. The RSPB claimed they had been illegally killed and their satellite tags destroyed, but the Scottish Moorland Group said there was no evidence to support this. The Scottish government is carrying out a review into the disappearances, which it called "disturbing and disappointing". Environment Secretary Roseanna Cunningham added: "The golden eagle is a magnificent bird and it is extremely heartening to see a rise in the number of this iconic species in our skies. The successes have been down to partnership work and this is continuing with the South of Scotland Golden Eagle project, which aims to boost populations even further. "But it is clear from this national survey that there are still areas of Scotland, which are ideal habitats for golden eagles to breed and hunt, where there has not been a recovery in population despite a lot of hard work to protect these birds. This seems like a missed opportunity." Andrew Bachell, SNH's director of policy and advice, said: "It's wonderful to see golden eagles reaching favourable conservation status nationally. These beautiful birds are such an important part of Scotland's nature, a species which people love to see when they visit our wilder landscapes. "It's particularly encouraging to see greater recovery in some areas where persecution had been thought to be a major constraint in the past. That picture is uneven though, and we would still expect eagles to be doing better in parts of the eastern Highlands." Tim Baynes, director of the Scottish Moorland Group at Scottish Land and Estates, said the increase in the golden eagle population was "in large part" a tribute to members of the group and the way they managed the land. "They have helped the surveyors and worked with Scottish Natural Heritage in the interest of golden eagles for many years," he said. "The east Highlands still have the highest level of productivity (young per pair) and a stable number of occupied territories over more than three decades. "The south central Highlands, which includes significant areas of driven grouse moor has shown by far the greatest increase in range occupancy - 70% - since 2003."

Numbers of golden eagles in Scotland are close to "historic" levels, with more than 500 pairs, a survey of the birds has found.

Summarize the following article: Farmers will only get payouts if they agree to protect the environment and enhance rural life, he will say. The move is part of what he calls his vision for a "green Brexit". Farmers’ leaders want the current £3bn total to be spent on the environment, more infrastructure to develop farm businesses, and promoting British food. The government has promised to keep overall payments at the same level until 2022. The Tenant Farmers' Association - which represents tenant farmers in England and Wales - has called for the same amount of money to remain after that time. Under the EU's current Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), farmers are paid based on the amount of land they farm. However, in a speech at WWF's Living Planet Centre in Woking on Friday, Mr Gove said the current system will be abolished after the UK has left the EU. He criticised the current system for giving money to some of the UK's wealthiest landowners, for encouraging wastage, and for not recognising "good environmental practice". Mr Gove described Brexit as "a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to reform how we care for our land, our rivers and our seas, how we recast our ambition for our country’s environment, and the planet". £3.2bn total payments to UK farmers £2.56bn direct aid excluding rural development and other schemes 39 recipients of £1m or more 50 recipients of £800,000 or more 108 recipients of £500,000 or more Critics say under the CAP wealthy UK landowners are given subsidies of up to £3m a year. The issue was highlighted last year when BBC News revealed that taxpayers are paying more than £400,000 a year to subsidise a farm where a billionaire Saudi prince breeds racehorses. The Newmarket farm of Khalid Abdullah al Saud - owner of the legendary horse Frankel - is among the top recipients of farm grants, along with the Queen. Environmentalists will applaud the promise of change; they blame the CAP for the huge loss of wildlife in the British countryside. The question for Mr Gove will be what detailed policy takes its place. Mr Gove said in his speech: “There are very good reasons why we should provide support for agriculture. Seventy per cent of our land is farmed - beautiful landscape has not happened by accident but has been actively managed. “Agriculture is an industry more susceptible to outside shocks and unpredictable events - whether it’s the weather or disease. So financial assistance and mechanisms which can smooth out the vicissitudes farmers face make sense." He also expressed a desire to protect the “human ecology” of Britain’s highlands, where farming without subsidy is impossible. This won’t please radical environmentalists, who want Mr Gove to save money (and in their view enhance the environment) by letting sheep farming wither, and allowing the uplands to revert to natural forest. The Country Land and Business Association, known as the CLA, accepts the need for reform and has launched a plan for a land management contract. Ross Murray, president of the CLA - which represents owners of land, property and businesses in England and Wales - said there is "vital work to be done", including to support farming practices, to manage soils and preserve land. When pressed on whether rich landowners should received public money, he told BBC Radio 4's Today programme he was open to change but practices such as tree planting - which are good for the environment but provide landowners with little benefit - should still be recognised. Asked if farming subsidies could be reduced in the future, he added: "In the long term perhaps, but in the meantime I think we're going to have to support farmers who provide public goods which could never be provided by the market." Craig Bennett, head of Friends of the Earth, welcomed the speech, but said: “Current EU rules aimed at tackling air pollution and climate change and protecting our birds, bees and nature must not be watered down, and mechanisms must be put in place to enforce them post-Brexit." National Farmers' Union (NFU) president Meurig Raymond said that, after leaving the EU, "it is important that we see a broad and innovative range of measures to ensure farmers continue to deliver all the benefits - for our wellbeing, for our economy and for our environment - that the country enjoys". He added: "Such a policy needs to be comprehensive, providing support to farmers not just for environmental work, but also to manage risk and volatility, and to improve productivity and resilience among farming businesses." One crucial question will be who has the final say on proposed developments in the UK's prime wildlife sites. At the moment they are protected by the EU as part of Europe's common heritage. That protection may disappear after Brexit. Follow Roger on Twitter.

Farm subsidies will have to be earned rather than just handed out in future, the Environment Secretary Michael Gove has said in a speech.

Summarize the following article: Five other workers from Winterbourne View near Bristol were given suspended sentences after the acts of abuse were uncovered by BBC Panorama. Ringleader Wayne Rogers, 32, who admitted nine counts of ill-treating patients, was jailed for two years. Judge Neil Ford QC said there was a "culture of cruelty" at the care home. Judge Ford said no attempt was made to provide a caring environment and if the abuse had not been uncovered by the BBC, it would have continued. He told the sentencing hearing the home had been "run with a scandalous lack of regard to patients and staff". "What happened was a gross breach of trust," he said. Alison Dove, 25, of Kingswood, was jailed for 20 months as was Graham Doyle, 26, of Patchway. Both pleaded guilty to seven charges of abuse. Addressing Dove, Judge Ford said: "You suggested it was born of boredom during long shifts and that you had viewed patients as playthings." He also referred to a letter Doyle wrote to him, in which the defendant had described his own behaviour as "disgusting, vile and inexcusable". Judge Ford then told Doyle: "You are considered genuinely remorseful and haunted by guilt. "But your treatment of Simone Blake was often cruel, callous and degrading. It was always wholly unjustified." Prosecutor Kerry Barker QC, said care watchdogs failed to act on repeated warnings of "inhumane, cruel and hate-fuelled treatment" of patients. "The so-called restraint techniques were used to inflict pain, humiliate patients and bully them into compliance with the demands of their carers," he said. Abuse of five residents at the home featured in footage played to the court during a week of sentencing hearings. Among the hours of graphic footage, support worker Rogers is shown slapping patient Simon Tovey across the cheek before telling him: "Do you want a scrap? Do you want a fight? Go on and I will bite your bloody face off." In a statement read outside court after the hearing, families of the abused patients said seeing the footage had been "distressing and extremely harrowing". "The guilty parties were only charged with offences shown on the Panorama programme and it would be naive to believe that this monstrous behaviour had not been continuing for a very long time," they said. Lawyers representing 17 families say they are now pursuing compensation in a civil action against Castlebeck, who owned Winterbourne View. Defendant Jason Gardiner, who received a suspended jail term after admitting two charges of abuse, said he wanted to apologise for his actions. "I take full responsibility for everything I have done," he said outside the court. "It was a very difficult place to work, a tough place to work. We were under-staffed and working 12-hour days without a break. "All I can do is apologise to everybody for what happened." Sentencing Gardiner, Judge Ford had said he had heard he was "barely coping" with his remorse and regret. James Welch, legal director of human rights campaign group Liberty, said he was "disappointed" with some of the sentences but thought the judge had been fair. The home's owners, Castlebeck, said there had been "extensive changes in board and management" and new measures introduced to ensure it could not happen again. The Care Quality Commission, which was heavily criticised after it ignored attempts by whistleblower Terry Bryan to inform them of the abuse that was happening at the home, said the responsibility for the abuse rested with the home's owners Castlebeck and individual employees. Outgoing chair of the CQC, Dame Jo Williams said: "We are committed to do all we can to protect people whose circumstances make them vulnerable - and since the abuse at Winterbourne View was uncovered we have made changes to ensure that we are better placed to prevent abuse." Care and Support minister Norman Lamb said: "This terrible case has revealed the criminal and inhuman acts some so-called care workers are capable of. "It has also shone a light on major flaws in the system which we will address. We will publish our final recommendations very soon." Sentences of all those found guilty are detailed below:

Six out of 11 care workers who admitted a total of 38 charges of neglect or abuse of patients at a private hospital have been jailed.

Summarize the following article: The experts said the horse immune system could respond to midge bites in a way that prevented, rather than triggered, allergic reactions. The study of Shetland ponies found horses responded to the irritants in midge bites but their immune systems acted in two different ways. Some had itching while others were able to prevent an allergic reaction. Those that did not react were somehow able to block different immune cells that would otherwise trigger symptoms. Edinburgh University scientists hope this knowledge can be applied to humans, so that the immune system could be primed to respond in a way that does not set off a reaction, possibly preventing people developing allergies. Dr Dietmar Zaiss, of Edinburgh University's school of biological sciences, said: "To our knowledge, this is the very first study of a natural allergic disease in which we can show that immune responses to allergens can take two directions, either leading to allergy or to tolerance. "We believe this finding could have direct practical implications, for example by helping immune responses to choose the 'right' direction in individuals who we would like to protect from developing occupation-associated allergies."

Shetland ponies may offer clues to help allergy sufferers, Edinburgh University researchers have found.

Summarize the following article: 1) Greece remains on the edge of default. Its revised budget deficit numbers on 3 October (8.5% deficit in 2011) were expected, but they mean any disbursement of the 8bn euro tranche by the Troika has to be done using the fig leaf of "we have plans to close the gap next year"). 2) Italy's problems are equally strategic: its rating was downgraded last night by Moody's, citing three reasons: a. Stress in the eurozone because of Greece b. Low growth c. Implementation risks due to political uncertainties - viz, the country is ruled by what traders in the City of London technically term "a muppet". 3) Dexia, the Belgian bank that has lent out money to the tune of 150% of Belgian GDP, is in trouble: it is set to be broken up, today or tomorrow, and its toxic debts placed in a "bad bank", similar to what happened with Northern Rock, which will then be quarantined by the French and Belgian governments. 4) The EU finance ministers met yesterday. They discussed a big recapitalisation plan for the EU banks - yes, those very banks that passed all the stress tests designed by the EU. However, there is a gap between what is needed to happen and what is actually happening. The French - whose banks are most exposed to Greece - are not prepared to move yet. 5) The International Monetary Fund has just waded in calling for the very thing the EU leaders are still mulling over: an urgent bank recapitalisation plan. 6) What are the obstacles? a. First, the EFSF is not yet ratified. They need it to be ratified by Malta and the Netherlands. b. Second, the EFSF is not big enough: the discussions at the IMF two weekends ago centred around the idea of a $2tn expansion of the Facility using "leverage". However, everybody immediately rowed back from this and there is some frustration in IMF, European Commission and UK government circles about the lack of specificity and urgency of such proposals (the German government is openly against). 7) What are the variables? a. There is clearly a danger of a third European credit crunch. This graph of credit insurance costs for major European banks is signalling we may be in bigger trouble than 2008. b. As in 2008 the form of the crunch is not simply "banks not lending to banks" but non-EU banks taking their money out of the EU banking system. There is circumstantial, anecdotal and direct briefing evidence that this is going on - though not yet critical. c. There is also the danger of a bank run in any of the countries where savers might believe the government is not going to guarantee all their deposits: hence the move to guarantee by Belgium yesterday. Obviously the Greek government cannot bail out its own banks, and there has been a slow leakage of deposits out of the banks there - 12% in the year to August. d. The Greek political situation: Greek politicians - cast adrift from any contact with their electors - are busily signing up to all kinds of job cuts and new taxes, but it's doubtful that they can execute this. e. The sovereign debt crisis is also ticking away in the corner: Moody's warned it may downgrade other countries soon, which will raise the cost of borrowing for them and for their banks. 8) What is the fundamental problem? The problem is there are actually three problems - each interlinked but with separate "laws of motion": a. There is the sovereign debt problem of busted countries - Greece, Portugal and Ireland b. There is distress in the banking system both for banks exposed to a potential Greek default and the more long-term fear of a euro breakup c. Growth is declining, in part because of the uncertainty, in part because the global round of stimulus after 2008 has run out. d. The IMF and US government believe there is a fourth problem: that austerity measures are exacerbating problems a-thru-c. 9) Is there a circuit breaker? It is certainly one of those moments where we need one. But it should be remembered that, at a similar moment in 1933, the world powers failed to find one, despite Keynes famous warning that: "Our plan must be spectacular, so as to change the grey complexion of men's minds. It must apply to all countries and to all simultaneously." The result was Depression. 10) What market people believe needs to happen is a solution similar to the US TARP in 2008 - where part nationalisation, the quarantining of bad loans on the government's balance sheet, combined with $700bn spent buying bad debts stabilised the US banks until the two big ones had to be part nationalised a few weeks later. 11) The form this will probably take in Europe is that France, Germany and Benelux refinance their own banks, while the EFSF, in current or expanded form, gets pumped into the Italian banks and the Spanish cajas. You would have to combine this with some immediate market suppressive measures: like banning short selling, banning credit default swaps or introducing an immediate Tobin Tax for countries prepared to sign up (say my sources). 12) In all circumstances, most EU politicians are coming round to some form of Greek default and the failure to disburse the 8bn euros looks more and more like the EU leaving itself the option of using this tranche to trigger the event, if it can get to the end of next week with some kind of Tarp plan in place. 13) But make no mistake: whenever the markets plunge it is because traders are taking a seasoned and reasonably well-informed view that the politicians are going to fail; that events will overwhelm them, and that there'll be disorderly defaults/exits from the eurozone. And as I have said before, a southern-European exit from the eurozone takes down north European banks that look quite healthy on sovereign exposure.

The basic situation this Wednesday morning, with markets yo-yoing and default insurance costs for major banks astronomic, is as follows:

Summarize the following article: They beat Fijian team Marama Vou 68-41 with shooter Chelsea Lewis named Player of the Match. The Welsh team lost 65-41 to the host nation's Pulse Netball in Nelson in their opening game. Kiwi club SkyCity Mystics are Celtic Flames' next opponents in Pool B. They face each other on Wednesday.

Welsh netball side Celtic Flames have earned their first win in the inaugural International Super Cup competition in New Zealand.

Summarize the following article: The body of Robert Lane, 50, was found in a house on Drage Street on Thursday. Post-mortem tests were inconclusive and a 35-year-old man arrested over the death has been released on police bail. Mr Lane stood unsuccessfully in the 2015 general election for North East Derbyshire and intended to run for police commissioner but failed to file papers in time. Police said further tests were being carried out in an effort to determine the cause of death. Mr Lane taught at secondary schools across the country for more than 20 years and was a freelance writer.

Summarize the following article: Mamelodi Sundowns were 1-0 winners away to Saint George of Ethiopia in Group C courtesy of a late strike from Liberia international Anthony Laffor, in a match where Uganda's national goalkeeper Denis Onyango also saved a penalty for the reigning champions. Esperance then drew 2-2 away to DR Congo's AS Vita Club to advance along with Sundowns from Group C. In an eventful game, Taha Yassine Khenissi gave Esperance an early lead before a Tady Etekiama Agity brace then put Vita Club 2-1 up. The hosts suffered a big blow after Makwekwe Kupa was sent off, leaving Khenissi to hit an equaliser for Esperance from the penalty spot to secure their qualification. Esperance lead Group C on nine points, with Mamelodi Sundowns a further point back. Saint George are three points further adrift, but because of their head-to-head record, they would not be able to overtake the defending champions in the last round of matches. Also on Saturday, Tunisia's Etoile du Sahel booked their place in the last eight from Group A with a 1-1 draw away to Ferroviario Beira in Mozambique. Chelito Omar put the hosts ahead in the 73rd minute only for Slim Ben Belgacem to equalise from the penalty spot and secure the decisive point for Etoile. The Tunisians are two points clear at the top of Group A after Al Merreikh beat rivals Al Hilal 2-1 in the Sudan derby on Friday night. Mohammed Abdel-Rahman gave Al Merreikh a 2-0 lead with Mohamed Musa hitting a consolation goal for Al Hilal. Elsewhere on Saturday, Zambian side Zanaco missed out on qualification after being held 0-0 at home in Group D by record eight-times winners Al Ahly of Egypt. Morocco's Wydad Casablanca hauled themselves back into contention in the group with a 2-0 win away to Cameroon's Cotonsport Garoua in the later game. Wydad are now two points adrift of group leaders Zanaco with Ahly a further point back. Group B remains tight after the top two, Al Ahli Tripoli and USM Alger, drew 1-1 on Friday night. They are both on eight points, three points ahead of Zamalek who travel to CAPS United on Sunday. Only the top two teams from each of the four groups will qualify for the quarter-finals of this year's African Champions League.

Holders Mamelodi Sundowns of South Africa secured their place in the quarter-finals of the African Champions League on Saturday along with Tunisian sides Esperance and Etoile du Sahel as the penultimate round of group matches continued.

Summarize the following article: The Most Reverend Justin Welby, also condemned the treatment of Christian communities in the Middle East. "They are driven into exile from a region in which their presence has always been essential," he will say. The Archbishop of Westminster also talked about the plight of Christians who are persecuted for their faith. Archbishop Welby, who was enthroned in March, spoke at morning service in Canterbury Cathedral. He said: "Christians are attacked and massacred and we see terrible news in South Sudan, where political ambitions have led towards ethnic conflict. On Saturday I was speaking to a bishop under siege, in a compound full of the dying." By Robert PigottReligious affairs correspondent, BBC News Oppression and poverty have preoccupied Christian leaders this Christmas, and the Archbishop of Canterbury has made an explicit link between them. Justin Welby said the persecution of Christian minorities overseas and destitution at home each represented a form of injustice. The message is that suffering does not lie only in the visible form of oppression and violence, but is also hidden in private destitution. Archbishop of York John Sentamu followed his passionate condemnation of malnutrition and inadequate housing, by warning that it rendered people invisible and voiceless. It comes at the end of a year in which the new leaders of the Roman Catholic Church and the Church of England have frequently inveighed against a capitalist system they believe is too indifferent to the plight of the poorest people. Both Pope and Archbishop are determined that Christianity should be seen as a champion of the poor and persecuted alike. The Archbishop challenged "the causes of poverty". The former oil company executive - who this year launched a campaign against payday lending firms - referred to "injustices at home... even in a recovering economy". He added: "Christians, the servants of a vulnerable and poor saviour, need to act to serve and love the poor, they need also to challenge the causes of poverty." The Archbishop of Canterbury also posted a brief Christmas video message on the photo-sharing website Instagram and tweeted a link to the clip through his Twitter account. He said: "Christmas means that, through Jesus, God shows unconditionally that he loves us. I pray that he gives you a very blessed Christmas." Lambeth Palace said the video message was part of a Church of England campaign which aims to encourage congregations and clergy to let people know what they see as the "joy and meaning of Christmas". It urges Anglicans across the world to complete the sentence: "Christmas means..." and send their message through Twitter. Archbishop Vincent Nichols, the leader of the Roman Catholic Church in England and Wales, in his address, said many Christians, especially in the Middle East, were risking their lives to worship. Speaking at Christmas midnight Mass in Westminster Cathedral, Archbishop Nichols told the congregation to give "a special thought and prayer" to those Christians. "Christians are the most widely persecuted religious group in the world today and this evening we think especially of the Middle East, especially of Egypt, Iraq and Syria," he said. During his speech, Archbishop Nichols cited similar concerns voiced by the Prince of Wales this month during a visit to the Coptic and Syrian Orthodox communities in Hertfordshire and London. "As Prince Charles said last week: 'Christianity was literally born in the Middle East and we must not forget our Middle Eastern brothers and sisters'," he said. "We come to this Cathedral this evening freely and relatively easily, ready to give a simple act of witness to our faith," he said. "But for many, going to church is an act of life-risking bravery. We thank them and seek to be inspired by their courageous faith." Meanwhile, in his Christmas message, the Archbishop of York, Dr John Sentamu, described poverty as a stain on the conscience of the nation. He added the Church still has a big influence on today's society and said an estimated 15 million people in England would attend services on Christmas Day.

The Archbishop of Canterbury has used his first Christmas Day sermon to highlight "injustices" facing Britain's poor and victims of world conflicts.

Summarize the following article: Traders in North Lanarkshire overturned a ban on their operation near schools late last year. Concerns about snack vans outside secondary schools in Dumfries and Galloway were discussed last March. Options were being drawn up to impose conditions on traders, but that proposal is now being suspended. A report to the council's education committee has asked them to note the outcome of the North Lanarkshire case and suspend the development of local plans to restrict school gate vending until further guidance is issued from the Scottish government.

Dumfries and Galloway Council has shelved plans to restrict food vendors outside its schools after a successful legal challenge in another region.

Summarize the following article: They were among five men convicted of the crime last month. Ms Politkovskaya, an investigative reporter and vocal critic of Russia's war in Chechnya, was shot in a lift in her block of flats. Three of the men had earlier been acquitted but Russia's supreme court ordered a retrial. Investigators have not determined who ordered the killing. Rustam Makhmudov was given a life sentence for pulling the trigger. His uncle Lom-Ali Gaitukayev, one of those found guilty of organising the murder, was also jailed for life. The three others convicted of the killing - two of whom are Makhmudov's brothers - were given between 12 and 20 years in prison. The prosecution had pushed for tougher sentences. Ms Politkovskaya's reporting for Novaya Gazeta newspaper won international renown for her dogged investigation of Russian abuses in Chechnya. But her pieces, which were highly critical of President Vladimir Putin, then serving his second term, and the Chechen leadership, angered many in authority. Last year a former police officer, Dmitry Pavlyuchenkov, was sentenced to 11 years in prison for supplying the murder weapon. Ms Politkovskaya's family say they will continue to campaign until the person who ordered the killing is uncovered. Vladimir Markin, a spokesman for the Russian Investigative Committee, said that "unfortunately much depends on our foreign colleagues, especially from Great Britain and Turkey. We have sent a number of inquiries, but have never received any response."

Two men have been given life sentences by a Moscow court for the 2006 murder of journalist Anna Politkovskaya.

Summarize the following article: The 24-year-old joined Bournemouth on loan from Arsenal in August and has featured in eight league games since. He played three league games for Arsenal in 2015-16 after breaking his leg, the latest in a run of injuries. "I missed the fight of the Premier League, being in big games and making a difference for a team," said Wilshere. "I wanted to feel that again and almost fall back in love with the game." Wilshere has won 34 international caps in six years and has been recalled to the England squad by interim-boss Gareth Southgate for the World Cup qualifier with Scotland on Friday and friendly with Spain on Tuesday. But he admits he has "been injured for too long" and wants to "prove" he still has the ability to play at the very top. He seems to be doing that with his impressive form for Bournemouth. He has created 14 chances for the Cherries in the league, a figure only bettered by £15m summer signing Jordon Ibe, who has made 15 following his move from Liverpool. Having made his Arsenal debut aged 16 years and 256 days in 2008, Wilshere remains the youngest player to feature for the club in the Premier League, but he is aware his future at Emirates Stadium is uncertain. "At the moment I am just trying to have a season where it puts me in a good position at the end of the year, that I have improved as a player and Arsenal want me back," he added. "I could have stayed at Arsenal, been the player that comes on now and then off the bench, starts in the odd cup game, but I wanted more than that."

England midfielder Jack Wilshere says he needed a fresh challenge this season after "almost falling out of love with the game".

Summarize the following article: Philip McGinn, 42, from Liverpool, was found with an injured leg and had to be rescued with a gamekeeper's 4X4 after getting stuck in a fence. He was banned from driving for 18 months after admitting escaping from a police car and drink driving. He also admitted failing to provide a roadside breath test. The court heard the use of the helicopter cost £1,300. A dog handler was also called in after McGinn escaped on the A5 at Llidiart y Park near Corwen on 16 August. Judge Niclas Parry said he had been "utterly foolish" and ordered him to pay £400 towards the cost of calling out the helicopter and £200 prosecution costs. "You caused great inconvenience to public services," he said. He also gave McGinn a 12-month community order during which he must carry out 120 hours of unpaid work.

A police helicopter was called out after a drink driver fled and ran off into the Denbighshire countryside, Mold Crown Court has heard.

Summarize the following article: The latest Markit/CIPS service sector purchasing managers index (PMI) fell to 53.3 last month from 55.6 in August. Although above 50, indicating growth, it was the lowest figure since April 2013 as global uncertainty and weak UK manufacturing weighed on businesses. Service sector growth in the third quarter slowed to a two-year low. Markit said that its survey data indicated that UK GDP growth slowed to 0.5% in the third quarter of the year, and is entering the fourth quarter at a pace of 0.3%. This compares with growth of 0.7% in the second quarter of the year. The service sector is of key importance to the UK as it accounts for about three-quarters of the economy. Chris Williamson, chief economist at Markit, said: "Weakness is spreading from the struggling manufacturing sector, hitting transport and other industrial-related services in particular. "Wider business service sector confidence has meanwhile also been knocked by global economic worries and financial market jitters." He added the survey suggested shoppers were more cautious, pulling back on their leisure spending on restaurants and hotels. The pound dropped slightly against other currencies, as the weak PMI reading suggested that the prospects of an early UK rate rise were diminishing. The Bank of England's monetary policy committee meets for its latest rate decision later this week. David Tinsley, an economist at UBS, said: "If this is an accurate reading of the trajectory of the economy, it increasingly appears that UK growth has taken a marked step down." He added that global uncertainty was "likely only part of the story" for the low service sector growth. "The services PMI has been easing for some time, and the UK index has fallen by more than it has in the eurozone for example." Other data released on Monday from Markit showed the eurozone composite PMI - which covers all business sectors - dropped to 53.6 in September from 54.3 the month before. Although growth decelerated in Ireland, Germany, Spain and Italy, new orders and higher output created more jobs in the euro bloc.

Growth in the UK service sector slowed further in September to its lowest rate in nearly two and a half years, a survey has indicated.

Summarize the following article: The prize has only been given out since the 2013-14 season, but five-time Ballon d'Or winner Messi had not won any of the previous 22 awards. The Argentina skipper, 28, has finally claimed it after scoring six goals in five La Liga games in January. Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo has won the award twice since it was introduced in September 2013. Atletico Madrid pair Diego Godin and Antoine Griezmann, along with Real Sociedad striker Carlos Vela, have also won it twice. Messi is only the second Barcelona player to win the award following Neymar's success in November. He scored a hat-trick against Granada, netting further goals against Athletic Bilbao, Malaga and Atletico Madrid, as La Liga leaders Barcelona won four of their five league matches in January.

Barcelona forward Lionel Messi has been named Spain's player of the month - the first time he has won the award.

Summarize the following article: Brenda Hale said her life was turned upside down by a stranger who began harassing her after the 2011 election. The Lagan Valley MLA said the man started to call and text her, and she felt "incredibly threatened". "He said we couldn't let this relationship go but I had never met this man," she told the BBC. She said the man approached her while she was shopping in Marks & Spencer. "I thought he was a constituent so I was very happy to converse with him and then he said he had been watching me a lot and he had got hold of my telephone number, and then the calls and texts started arriving with increasing regularity," she said. "I did not know this man from Adam and he was stalking me from his home address in Dublin." Mrs Hale, whose husband was killed in Afghanistan in 2009, said the whole experience was "terribly frightening". "I had become a very public person after the death of my husband and so my story was out there - that I was alone with two children," she said. "To feel vulnerable like that made me question whether a job in the public arena was the right one for me." She said she "nipped it in the bud very quickly" and the police were "very quick to act". Northern Ireland is the only part of the UK which does not have specific laws to protect victims of stalking. On Monday, Mrs Hale brought forward a motion about the need for new legislation. Assembly members voted on it and an amendment introduced by the SDLP and both were passed. Mrs Hale said the debate was a "vital step forward". "A legal definition will enable us to not only protect victims but also monitor reports of stalking, arrests and consequent prosecutions," she added. Green Party deputy leader Clare Bailey MLA spoke of her own experience of stalking after the debate. "I had razor blades stuck in my car tyres, which caused the tyres to blow up after dropping my children to school," she said. "I decided then to report the stalking to the police, but response was "What do you want us to do about it?". I couldn't answer their question but I didn't report any further incidences." It was time to make stalking a "recognised crime in its own right", she added. Justice Minister Claire Sugden said a review of the existing laws around stalking both in Northern Ireland and elsewhere was already under way.

An assembly member has spoken out for the first time about being stalked, as Stormont backed a motion to safeguard victims.

Summarize the following article: Norman Martin, 93, and Islwyn Morgan, 89, joined Treorchy Male Voice Choir in 1947 - and are still going strong. The pair, who are both vice presidents of the choir, have attended more than 6,500 rehearsals and notched up over 2,000 concerts. Choir chairman David Bebb said their achievement was "staggering". "Surely, they must be the longest serving male voice choir members in the world today," he said. "Their contribution to the choir knows no bounds and we look to them frequently for advice and support when decision-making takes place." One of 10 children, Mr Morgan was the son of a well-known Treorchy choir conductor, and followed his brothers into the choir when it reformed after World War Two in 1947. "The Treorchy Male Choir has played such a massive part in my life that I cannot imagine being without it," said the former officer for the old Rhondda District Council. The chorister, who performs in the ranks of the first tenors, added: "I've made lifelong friends, met some wonderful people and travelled the world - things I would never have done had I not been part of the choir." Choir colleague Mr Martin also joined up in the same year, after hearing the sound of singing as he walked past a rehearsal at a local school. He spent 25 years working in the coal industry after becoming a collier at the Park Colliery when he left school at age 14. Determined to better himself, he studied at night school to gain engineering qualifications, and was eventually appointed as a lecturer at Rhondda College, where he spent the next 27 years until his retirement. Along with Mr Morgan, the two have performed alongside the likes of Ella Fitzgerald, Shirley Bassey, Tom Jones, Burt Bacharach, Katherine Jenkins and Julie Andrews, as well as guest appearances on the Royal Variety Show and for the Prince of Monaco. "To think that one moment you're being introduced to the Queen and the next you're singing in the Sydney Opera House or visiting the White House. It is absolutely unbelievable," added second tenor Mr Martin.

A retired lecturer and a valley's civil servant are celebrating 2017 as some of the world's longest serving choir members.

Summarize the following article: Dave Gallaher wore the shirt during the 1905 tour of the British Isles and swapped it with Wales captain Gwyn Nicholls after a match. It went under the hammer at Rogers Jones & Co in Cardiff on Friday where it had been expected to sell for £20,000 to £40,000. The buyer was based in the UK and bid over the phone. After getting the shirt, Nicholls subsequently gave it to a van boy at his laundry business, Thomas Mahoney, whose family have kept it ever since. David Rogers Jones, of Rogers Jones & Co, said: "We're totally astonished. The bidding started off at about £35,000 and lasted for about 10 minutes, going up and up and up. "We were hoping to break the previous world record for a rugby shirt of £22,000 and have certainly done that." A bronze statue of Gallaher, who died in 1917 in Belgium while serving in World War One, was unveiled outside the home of New Zealand rugby, Eden Park, in 2011.

An All Blacks rugby jersey dating back 110 years has been sold for £180,000 at auction.

Summarize the following article: Pavey became the oldest woman to claim European gold when she won the 10,000m in Zurich in 2014, aged 40. The British five-time Olympian missed the World Championships with a heel injury, but has no plans to retire. "Next year I'll be mostly focusing on trying to qualify for the Europeans - that's the goal," Pavey said. Find out how to get into athletics with our special guide. The 43-year-old has ruled out competing at the Commonwealth Games in Australia in March, but is keen to continue for at least one more season on the track. "With the Commonwealths being in March, and having a family and all the different phases of my life I'm at now, I just think it's the Europeans that I'm most interested in," Pavey told BBC Radio Devon. "It was frustrating getting injured early in the season because I was quite pleased with the way the track sessions were starting to unfold. "I actually felt younger this year than I did maybe in the last year or two, so I was looking forward to trying to put some good track performances in. "I suppose I have to retire one day, but I'll never completely retire - I'll always keep running." The Devon mother of two received her 2007 World Championship bronze medal at the London Stadium during this year's event, after Turkey's Elvan Abeylegesse was retrospectively disqualified for an in-competition doping offence.

Jo Pavey is aiming to regain her 10,000m title at the European Championships in Germany in 2018 - a month before her 45th birthday.

Summarize the following article: The Geo TV show stars Bollywood music director Shankar Mahadevan and singer Shweta Pandit. The hashtag #GeoBetraysYetAgain has gathered traction, with many calling Geo TV "traitors". The campaign comes after several events in India involving Pakistanis were disrupted by rightwing group Shiv Sena. Last month, a concert by popular Pakistani ghazal singer Ghulam Ali in the western Indian city of Mumbai was cancelled after the Shiv Sena threatened to disrupt the performance. Shiv Sena activists also doused the head of an Indian think-tank in black ink in protest at his support for the launch of a book by a former Pakistani foreign minister. And weeks later, party activists broke into the office of India's cricket board just before a meeting between India and Pakistan's cricket board chiefs. And now, in what appears to be a tit-for-tat move, some Pakistani social media users want the Geo TV network to cancel its singing competition "Asia Singing Superstar". A graphic that many users are sharing reads "Pakistanis don't want to see those who are killing Muslims for eating meat and Geo management is showing entertainment programmes with an Indian agenda". The comments are in reference to the recent lynching of a Muslim man by a Hindu mob over rumours that he consumed beef. The sentiment has been also picked up by opposition politicians like Sheikh Rashid Ahmad, who has been retweeting some of the anti-Geo TV comments. Other users asked "Where is Pamera?", a reference to the Pakistani media regulator which has the power to either completely shutdown a channel or impose heavy fine under what some commentators describe as draconian powers. An article of its recently introduced code of conduct prohibits the airing of any content which is against Islamic values and the ideology of Pakistan. But not everyone felt the same way, with other social media users defending Geo TV. BBC Monitoring reports and analyses news from TV, radio, web and print media around the world.

Summarize the following article: The unit at Grantham and District Hospital closed for the first time last night, in a trial which bosses said was needed due to a lack of doctors. PCC Marc Jones said the force was not consulted and officers will waste hours taking suspects to the nearest A&E in Lincoln. The trust promised to discuss concerns. United Lincolnshire Hospital Trust (ULHT) will now only open the A&E at Grantham from 09:00 to 18:30 daily, for the next three months. The trust says it does not have enough doctors to staff the department safely and also maintain services in Lincoln and Boston. More on this story and others in Lincolnshire Protesters claim the decision will put lives at risk, something which is denied by the trust. It said the temporary closure at Grantham means it can maintain safe staffing levels at its two other A&E departments, both of which take a higher number of patients. About 130 people gathered outside the hospital last night to protest the closure. Mr Jones said: "To do this without consulting key partners such as police is very poor really, and we do need to work better together to protect the people we are all ultimately there to serve. "When you say to the people of Grantham, you are going to have less policing as a result of the closure, then that is a significant impact." Michelle Rhodes, the director of nursing at the trust said it was happy to discuss the concerns. "We need to work with the police, look at the amount of patients that are transported here and work through that issue," she said. "As a trust we will look at it and take it seriously and work through it with the police. We have spoken to the police and it's not an issue that's been raised with us...but we will pick it up afterwards with him." Meanwhile, Martin Hill, the leader of Lincolnshire County Council, has said that although he "reluctantly" accepts the decision, he remained concerned about the timings of the overnight closure. He said: "I do not think it's right to have no medical access to anybody at all at Grantham at say 19:00. The 120,000 population needs something better than a locked door and being told to call 111."

The closure of a hospital's A&E department at night will waste hours of police time, Lincolnshire's Police Commissioner (PCC) has said.

Summarize the following article: The wired brain implants allowed sensory and motor signals to be sent from one rat to another, creating the first ever brain-to-brain interface. The scientists then tested whether the rat receiving the signal could correctly interpret the information. As the ultimate test of their system, the team even linked the brains of rats that were thousands of miles apart. Details of the work are outlined in the journal Scientific Reports. Professor Miguel Nicolelis and his team at Duke University Medical Center in North Carolina built on their previous work with brain-machine interfaces. In a study published earlier this month, the researchers implanted electrodes in the part of the rat's brain that processes tactile information and attached these to infrared sensors - effectively allowing the rat to "touch" infrared light. In their latest study, the scientists wanted to test whether the systems they had developed could be used to establish a new artificial communication channel between animals. "Until recently we used to record this brain activity and send it to a computer... and the [computer] tells us what the animal is going to do," Prof Nicolelis told the BBC's Science in Action programme. "So we reasoned, if we can do that with a computer, could another brain do that?" The researchers first trained pairs of rats to solve a simple problem - pressing the correct lever when an indicator light above the lever switched on, to obtain a water sip. The researchers then placed the rodents in separate chambers and connected their brains using arrays of microelectrodes - each roughly one hundredth the diameter of a human hair - inserted into the area of the cortex that processes motor information. One rat was designated as the "encoder". Once this rat pressed the correct lever, its brain activity was delivered as electrical stimulation into the brain of the second rat - designated the "decoder". The decoder rat had the same types of levers in its chamber, but it did not receive any visual cue indicating which lever it should press to obtain a reward. In order to receive the reward, the decoder rat would have to rely on the cue transmitted from the encoder via the brain-to-brain interface. The team members then conducted trials to determine how well the decoder animal could decipher the brain input from the encoder rat to choose the correct lever. The decoder rat ultimately achieved a maximum success rate of about 70%. Although the information was transmitted in real time, the learning process was not instantaneous. "[It] takes about 45 days of training an hour a day," said Prof Nicolelis. "There is a moment in time when... it clicks. Suddenly the [decoder] animal realises: 'Oops! The solution is in my head. It's coming to me' and he gets it right." There was also a feedback system, denying the encoder rat an extra reward if the decoder rat did not press the correct lever. The encoder rat's brain signals then became clearer, giving the decoder a greater chance of interpreting the message correctly, Prof Nicolelis noted. He explained: "Basically [the second rat] is working as... a biological computer." One replication of the experiment successfully linked a rat at Duke with one at the University of Natal in Brazil. Nicolelis foresees eventually extending the system to larger numbers of animals. "We are already building the setup... You could actually have millions of brains tackling the same problem and sharing a solution." And he also thinks the idea could be extended to humans. "We will have a way to exchange information across millions of people without using keyboards or voice recognition devices or the type of interfaces that we normally use today," he said. "I truly believe that in a few decades… we will know what it is to communicate in that way." But Prof Nicolelis is clear that this depends on the development of non-invasive techniques to share information between human brains. Prof Christopher James, an expert in neural engineering at the University of Warwick, who uses non-invasive techniques in his own research, explains that it is currently not possible to put information into a brain using just the surface of the scalp. "If you want to get information into the brain, then putting electrodes right at the brain sites is the way to do it. However, it's clearly very invasive," said Prof James. He added that the invasive nature of the research raised ethical questions: "It's very, very interesting isn't it? Because in humans you'd obviously get informed consent in doing this." Prof James explained: "It's an exciting paper which basically shows that it is possible to take information out of the brain, and it is possible to take information and pump it into the brain. "What this shows is that the technology is here. And the sort of things we should be talking about is: Why are we doing this, and what do we hope to get out of it?"

Summarize the following article: Nahid Almanea, 31, was stabbed on Salary Brook Trail, Colchester, on 17 June last year. Essex Police said its investigation was continuing at a "significant pace". But the force is continuing to look for a man seen wearing a "distinctive jacket" on the trail. In the days after Ms Almanea's death, detectives issued a description of the man, who was wearing a "beige Italian style designer jacket", saying they "urgently" needed to speak to him. About 950 potential witnesses had been spoken to, more than 1,300 statements taken and 4,546 exhibits seized, the force said. No one has yet been charged in connection with Ms Almanea's death. Just over half of the 88 people captured on CCTV images released as part of the investigation have been identified, a police spokeswoman said. Efforts are continuing to conduct forensic tests, review security camera images and speak to witnesses. Det Ch Insp Mark Hall, who is leading the investigation, said: "This is a complex and large scale investigation but we remain focussed on pursuing each piece of information in order to identify the person or persons responsible for Nahid's murder."

Searches for a man seen near to where a Saudi Arabian student was murdered have been unsuccessful, despite almost 1,000 potential witnesses being spoken to, police said.

Summarize the following article: If Manchester United win their last two games and beat their local rivals to fourth place, then City are not going into freefall or financial meltdown in the way Leeds United did when they failed to qualify in 2002. In terms of the outlay they have made, City should be finishing in the top four - no question - and, in the short-term, not doing so would be a massive disappointment. It delays their ambition to establish themselves as a major European power because they want to win the Champions League, not just get in it. But the biggest plus is that it would not affect the club's stability and I don't think it would affect their ability to attract top players this summer either. City's fans do not want to watch their side play the lesser teams from different corners of Europe on Thursday nights - they want to see them against the best. They will not get that if they finish fifth in the Premier League. But, overall, I would suggest to City fans that the future is still bright and still rosy, even if they have to settle for the Europa League next season. The club will still move forward because the top players will still want to join them. That was always going be more down to having Pep Guardiola as their new manager next season rather than being in the Champions League itself. Every player Guardiola will sign will think City will only be out of the Champions League for one season only, and I would be amazed if it were for longer. City have still got a chance of making the top four of course - the season is not over yet. But I think United will win both their remaining games - at West Ham on Tuesday and then at home to Bournemouth on the final day - which would guarantee they finish above City. Playing the Hammers in their final game at Upton Park is still a tough one but knowing that a top-four finish is now in their hands will be a massive boost for United's players and their fans. It is going to be a brilliant game, and I am really looking forward to it. The reason City are in this position is not down to them failing to beat Arsenal on Sunday. City actually performed quite well after a tough game in midweek against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu - they pressed, played at a good tempo and looked dangerous. We still saw some of the issues they have had all season, such as with the first goal they conceded. Defending set-plays has been a long-standing problem for them and, against the Gunners, Eliaquim Mangala was at fault. He gambled, tried to win the ball early and paid the price. They have had some bad luck along the way with injuries to some of their key players but it is their away form that has let them down the most. On too many occasions they have not played with the same intensity they showed against Arsenal. The question is, why? Media playback is not supported on this device Outgoing City boss Manuel Pellegrini did not get the send-off he wanted at Etihad Stadium on Sunday. If City do not make the top four then it is a kick in the teeth for him, but I think some of their players need to question themselves more than the manager. I understand when people point to the announcement in February that Guardiola was taking over as the thing that derailed City's season - but I do not see it as an excuse. Apart from one or two of their players who must have known they were leaving the club anyway, my feeling is that they should have been trying to impress the new manager - and the performances should have got better, not worse. As far as how Pellegrini will be remembered, I asked some City fans about this on a radio phone-in recently and they were very complimentary. Part of that was down to him winning the title and reaching the Champions League semi-finals but it was also because he is so humble. I think his players like him, which is usually a good thing, but sometimes they have not performed for him. So, is Pellegrini too nice? The evidence suggests that is not going to be an issue for City under Pep. He always gets a tune out of his players in terms of the intensity they play at and, although his Bayern Munich side also lost in the semi-finals this week, they were very unfortunate to go out. There is another reason for City fans to be excited - they are going to get better quickly, I am 100% sure of that. Danny Murphy was speaking to BBC Sport's Chris Bevan.

If Manchester City miss out on next season's Champions League it is a huge failure, but it is not a disaster because the future of the club is not at stake.

Summarize the following article: Temperatures plummeted overnight and Northern Ireland suffered its coldest August night on record at -1.9C. The Met Office has issued yellow warnings for rain on Monday - indicating people should "be aware" - for Wales and most of England. The forecaster said the rain was caused by a "complex area of low pressure". It said the conditions could cause problems for motorists, with surface water and spray predicted. BBC weather presenter Darren Bett said that following sunshine on Sunday, increasing cloud would then bring heavy rain. Temperatures on Monday will struggle to get above 19C (66F), forecasters said. Scotland, where it is not a bank holiday, is expected to have the best of the weather. The Met Office said strong winds would be an additional factor, as well as rain, close to southern coasts and in north-west England. In Northern Ireland, the forecaster said temperatures would not exceed 15C and there would be cloud and patches of rain, becoming heavier and more persistent across the southern border. In the early hours of Sunday morning, the temperature dropped to -1.9C at Katesbridge, in County Down - which set a new record for the coldest August night in Northern Ireland. The previous low of -1.1C was set in 1964. In Scotland, the mercury in Eskdalemuir fell to 0.8C overnight. In southern England, Bournemouth saw a low of 2C. The lowest August temperature ever recorded in the UK was -4.5C in Lagganlia in the Scottish Highlands, registered in 1973. Low temperatures are expected again in Scotland overnight on Sunday, but the rest of the country will be less cold, BBC forecasters said. The Met Office warned people across the UK to be aware that there may be "some impacts to holiday traffic and other outdoor activities". A spokesman said: "A complex area of low pressure will bring an unpleasant day's weather to much of England and Wales on Monday. "Rainfall amounts are likely to exceed 15mm (0.6in) quite widely, while a few places could see more than 30mm (1.1in). There will be a lot of surface water and spray on roads, and winds will be locally strong and gusty, for instance over parts of north-west England." Tourism agency Visit England said more than five million people were planning an overnight stay away from home over the weekend. About one million people are expected to attend London's Notting Hill Carnival, one of Europe's biggest events of its kind, which takes place on Sunday and Monday.

Heavy rain and winds will sweep across large swathes of the UK on Monday, forecasters have warned, putting a dampener on the Bank Holiday for many.

It could see the buildings put to a range of uses including residential, retirement and commercial. A planning application could be submitted in 12 weeks' time. Public exhibitions have also been proposed.

A Peebles textile mill which closed last year could be turned into a residential development.

Summarize the following article: It is now likely that the LHC will see beams of protons racing around its 27km circumference early next week. The massive machine's second run, after a two-year refit, had faced a delay of up to several weeks after the glitch was discovered ten days ago. But now only much more routine tests remain to be completed. Cern, the European organisation for nuclear research, announced on Tuesday that Run Two of the collider was "back on track". The short circuit was caused by a tiny piece of metal debris, which found its way into the pipes and became lodged in the wiring of one of the LHC's powerful electromagnets. A short caused by dust or debris is a common enough fault, but one which could have taken weeks to fix if the team had needed to warm the magnet up from its operating temperature of nearly -273C (absolute zero). The mercifully rapid repair was something of an experiment, according to the head of Cern's beams department, Dr Paul Collier. After his team pinpointed the location of the fault - to within centimetres - using electrical signals, they "had a number of methods to explore", Dr Collier told BBC News. One would have been to hose down the area with helium gas, which could be done remotely; another would have been to open the magnet up and send in an engineer. "Maybe the safest mechanism would have been to warm up the machine and go in there and clean it out - but that would have been a very long process," Dr Collier said. So instead they tried something new: passing nearly 400 amps of current directly through the short circuit, for just a few milliseconds - "in the same way you would blow a fuse". Measurements made on Monday evening suggested the trick had worked, and this was confirmed when high voltages were put through the circuit on Tuesday. "There's no short there now, even at high voltages," Dr Collier said, clearly pleased with the solution. "We can't pretend this is the only fragment in the system; it could well recur in the future. But now we've got a mechanism to deal with it relatively quickly - much more quickly than we did this time." A vast, subterranean "atom smasher", the LHC is famous around the world for pushing the boundaries of physics - including the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012. Its much-anticipated reboot will slam protons together with twice as much energy as ever before, which researchers hope will yield insights into huge, outstanding questions like the existence of dark matter and supersymmetry. Actual collisions will still not recommence until at least May; the first big step is to send beams all the way around the machine's parallel pipes, in both directions - and this is now only days away.

The short circuit delaying the restart of the Large Hadron Collider has been fixed, after a blast of high current melted the metal particle responsible.

Summarize the following article: Palestinian officials said two people were hurt as sites belonging to Hamas, Islamic Jihad and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine were hit. Shells also reportedly damaged a water tower in the town of Beit Hanoun. Earlier, a rocket launched in Gaza landed near a house in the Israeli town of Sderot without causing any injuries. Israel and militants in Gaza led by Hamas, which dominates the coastal territory, fought a 50-day war in the summer of 2014. Since then, a ceasefire has largely held, but some small jihadist groups have defied the agreement and periodically fired rockets at Israel. A senior Israeli military official told the Haaretz newspaper that "dozens" of strikes on Sunday night had targeted Hamas "infrastructure". "The attacks were out of the ordinary, but there is no intention to escalate the situation," the official added. Military spokesman Lt Col Peter Lerner said it remained "committed to the stability of the region and operated in order to bring quiet to the people of southern Israel". Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri said: "We hold [Israel] responsible for the escalation in the Gaza Strip and we stress that its aggression will not succeed in breaking the will of our people and dictate terms to the resistance." Hamas leader Mahmoud al-Zahhar later blamed "a group not committed to the principles of the resistance of the occupation" for firing the rocket at Sderot. Haaretz identified the group as Ahfad al-Sahaba-Aknaf Bayt al-Maqdis, which it said was affiliated with Salafist groups that identify with so-called Islamic State (IS).

The Israeli military says its aircraft and tanks attacked targets in the Gaza Strip overnight in response to rocket fire by Palestinian militants.

Summarize the following article: Abou Zeid was a senior figure in al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM). Earlier, the French newspaper Le Monde said DNA samples had made it possible to formally identify Abou Zeid. The Chadian army fighting alongside French forces claimed earlier this month it had killed Abou Zeid and fellow militant Mokhtar Belmokhtar in fighting in February. "The president of the French Republic confirms with certainty the death of Abdelhamid Abou Zeid after an offensive by the French army in the Adrar des Ifoghas (mountains) in the North of Mali, at the end of February," the Elysee presidential palace said. The statement said the death of "one of the main leaders of AQIM marks an important stage in the fight against terrorism in the Sahel (region)". The fate of Mokhtar Belmokhtar has yet to be confirmed. Islamist rebels seized the vast north of Mali a year ago after a military coup in the capital Bamako. France intervened militarily in January amid fears that the militants were preparing to advance on Bamako. It currently has about 4,000 troops in Mali. Analysts say Algerian-born Abou Zeid became one of AQIM's top three military commanders in 2012 and led jihadist forces into the north Malian city of Timbuktu. Once there they swiftly imposed a harsh regime of Sharia law and organised the destruction of Muslim holy sites they considered idolatrous. Profile: Abou Zeid Mali's army and troops from several African countries, including 2,000 from Chad, have also been involved in the fighting. Since the intervention began, major cities including Gao, Kidal and Timbuktu have been recaptured but fighting is still continuing in desert mountains. France plans to withdraw its troops from Mali next month, with West African countries expected to take over in the run-up to elections due in July. Correspondents say Abou Zeid, an Algerian, was believed to be behind several kidnappings of Westerners. He was also suspected of executing a British hostage, Edwin Dyer, in 2009 and French national Michel Germaneau a year later. On Wednesday, AQIM said it had killed French hostage Philippe Verdon who was taken prisoner in Mali in 2011. It said his death - which France has not yet confirmed - was in retaliation for France's intervention in Mali. As well as Mr Verdon, a total of 14 French nationals are still being held by Islamist groups in Africa.

Islamist commander Abdelhamid Abou Zeid has been killed in fighting in Mali, the French presidency has confirmed.

Summarize the following article: Prime Minister Theresa May The prime minister's spokeswoman said she would be calling the President of the EU Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, to say she intended to stick to her March 2017 deadline for triggering Article 50 - the formal two-year process to leave the EU. Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon "The judgment this morning I don't think is a huge surprise for anyone that followed the case, but it is hugely significant and it underlines the total chaos and confusion at the heart of the UK government. "We should remember that their refusal to allow a vote in the House of Commons is not some matter of high constitutional principle, it's because they don't have a coherent position and they know that if they take their case to the House of Commons that will be exposed." Wales First Minister Carwyn Jones "The High Court ruling is extremely clear - the UK government cannot trigger Article 50 using the Crown prerogative. "Indeed, this is consistent with many of the arguments made by the Leave campaign themselves about parliamentary sovereignty. "It is a mistake, in my view, to challenge such a clear ruling and we should now try and move ahead to develop a fuller understanding of the UK government's position." Irish prime minister Enda Kenny "Now clearly the British government have to make a decision as to whether to refer now to the Parliament or whether to appeal that case and that's a matter for them. "Irrespective of the decision that they make there we have to concentrate on what our priorities are and work together in the interests of the common benefits of the economies of the people north and south." Northern Ireland First Minister Arlene Foster The Democratic Unionist leader and Brexiteer has not commented on the court case but used a weekend speech to her party conference to accuse Irish government representatives of trying to play up uncertainty around Brexit to "poach" would-be investors from Northern Ireland. Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn "Parliament has to have a say. This is a crucial decision for the future of this country and we are going to be looking at the issue of market access to Europe, looking at the future of manufacturing industry, looking at the finance services to Europe and of course crucially workplace regulations, environmental regulations and consumer rights." UKIP leader Nigel Farage "I worry that a betrayal may be near at hand. "Last night [Wednesday] at the Spectator Parliamentary Awards I had a distinct feeling that our political class, who were out in force, do not accept the 23rd of June referendum result." Brexit Secretary David Davis "Parliament voted by six to one to give the decision to the people, no ifs or buts, and that's why we are appealing this to get on with delivering the best deal for Britain - that's the best deal for growth, the best deal for investment, the best deal for jobs. "The people want us to get on with it and that is what we are going to do." Liberal Democrat leader Tim Farron "It is disappointing that this government was so intent on undermining parliamentary sovereignty and democratic process that they forced this decision to be made in the court, but I welcome the news today that MPs will get to vote on the triggering of Article 50." Green Party co-leader Caroline Lucas "We welcome this ruling, which shows that ministers do not have the power to trigger Article 50 without consulting Parliament. "Parliament must have the opportunity to debate and vote on triggering Article 50, rather than a group of ministers at the top table having total control over this country's future place in the world." Investment firm manager and lead claimant Gina Miller "What we're saying is, very simply, you can't have it both ways. "You can't talk about getting back a sovereign Parliament and being in control but at the same time then bypass it. "This whole idea we're trying to stop Brexit is a broken record. We've crossed that river, we're talking about how we leave it and it has to be with scrutiny." Deir Dos Santos, a hairdresser and second-named claimant His solicitor David Greene, senior partner of law firm Edwin Coe, said in a statement on his behalf: "This is a victory for democracy over the feudal institution of royal prerogative. "The government has to accept the constitutional reality that Parliament must have early involvement in the process." The Lord Chief Justice, Lord Thomas "The most fundamental rule of the UK's constitution is that Parliament is sovereign and can make and unmake any law it chooses. "As an aspect of the sovereignty of Parliament it has been established for hundreds of years that the Crown - i.e. the government of the day - cannot, by exercise of prerogative powers, override legislation enacted by Parliament." Prof Vernon Bogdanor, on BBC Radio 4's World at One A leading expert on the British constitution at the Institute for Contemporary British History at King's College London, Prof Bogdanor said: "I think the important point is it's not quite as earth-shattering as some people are saying because Article 50 doesn't trigger a trade negotiation with the European Union. "It's not concerned with the question of whether we have a hard or soft Brexit, whether we have access to the internal market and so on - it deals simply with a withdrawal agreement with the European Union." Dr Timothy Lyons QC, writing in the Law Gazette "In 1995, Lord Browne Wilkinson said: 'The constitutional history of this country is the history of the prerogative powers of the Crown being made subject to the overriding powers of the democratically elected legislature as the sovereign body.' (Ex p. Fire Brigades Union [1995] 2 All ER 244, 254d). "In this judgment the court has written another chapter in that history. It is clear and cogent. Those who want direct, instead of representative, democracy will disagree with it. Before the Supreme Court, which will hear the appeal in December, much more than Brexit is at stake."

Following the High Court ruling that Parliament should be given a vote on whether the UK can start the process of leaving the EU, how have politicians, legal experts and other figures reacted?

Summarize the following article: They said the judge had not correctly understood their son's finances. The judge accused Neymar of only declaring the equivalent of 8% of his assets in 2013. He said the forward had omitted payments received from advertising and from Barcelona football club. The judge froze $47.6m (£30.5m) of Neymar's assets. He said this was to cover potential interest and fines and to prevent the player selling assets before the case was settled. The judge said the frozen assets were in the name of the Brazilian player and three companies in which he and his parents jointly owned. However, Neymar's parents said the decision was based on an "incorrect understanding" of their son's income. "Neymar did not avoid paying taxes, and neither did any of our companies," they said. Neymar joined Barcelona in June 2013 after a successful career with the Brazilian club, Santos. But the transfer has prompted fraud investigations in Spain over allegations that the fee paid was much higher than the declared €57m ($65m; £41m).

The parents of the Brazilian football star, Neymar, have denied their son has done anything wrong, after a judge formally accused him of evading $16m in taxes.

Summarize the following article: Sami Khedira put the visitors ahead after just seven minutes following a deft one-two with Miralem Pjanic. Napoli captain Marek Hamsik levelled after the break from Dries Mertens' reverse pass. Mertens then hit the post from a tight angle after beating goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon to Kwadwo Asamoah's back-pass but Juve held on. The build-up to the game had been dominated by the return to Naples of former striker Gonzalo Higuain, but the 29-year-old was unable to have a meaningful impact on the match. Roma's 2-0 victory over Empoli on Saturday had cut the advantage of Massimiliano Allegri's side to five points, while Napoli remain third, four points ahead of Lazio.

Summarize the following article: Several countries have cut ties with Qatar, accusing it of supporting terrorism in the Gulf region. Qatari nationals in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and the UAE have been given two weeks to leave. Qatar denies backing militants and its foreign minister has called for "a dialogue of openness and honesty". Egypt said it was closing off its airspace to Qatar from 04:00 GMT on Tuesday "until further notice". Travel disruption is expected as the airport in Doha, Qatar's capital, is a major hub for international flight connections. Airlines affected will include Qatar Airways, Etihad Airways and Emirates. When avoiding the massive neighbour to the west, Saudi Arabia, Qatari planes will inevitably have to take longer routes leading to longer flight times. But Qatar's Foreign Minister, Sheikh Mohammed Bin Abdulrahman al-Thani, told broadcaster Al Jazeera the country would "still have access to the world through international sea lanes and international airspace". An anonymous Somali official told AP news agency at least 15 Qatar Airways flights had used Somalia's airspace on Monday, many more than on a normal day. The states who joined the move against Qatar, a tiny but gas-rich peninsula, on Monday include some of the biggest powers in the Arab world. Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and the UAE closed all transport ties by air, land and sea to Qatar. They gave all Qatari visitors and residents two weeks to leave their territory, and banned their citizens from travelling to Qatar. The UAE and Egypt expelled Qatari diplomats, giving them 48 hours to leave. Saudi Arabia closed down a local office of Al Jazeera but said Qatari citizens would still be allowed to take part in the annual Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca. Egypt, Yemen, Libya's eastern-based government and the Maldives later followed suit in severing diplomatic ties. In a country reliant on imported food, residents began to stockpile. AFP news agency said queues in one shop were 25 people deep. This small state is dependent on imported food. A substantial amount of it is transported across the border from Saudi Arabia, which is being closed. That is also an important route for construction materials - needed for the energy industry and for the preparations for the 2022 football world cup. Qatar's exports are dominated by oil and gas. They are mostly seaborne, so should not be immediately hit, but the general economic disruption could have an impact if the dispute drags on. That possibility pushed the price of crude oil higher, but only briefly. Qatar is a member of the exporters' group Opec and the dispute could yet undermine the organisation's efforts to raise prices by restricting production. 2.7m population 2m of whom are men 11,437 sq km in size (4,416 sq miles) 77 years life expectancy (men) 80 years for women While the severing of ties was sudden, it has not come out of the blue, as tensions have been building for years, and particularly in recent weeks. Broadly, two key factors drove Monday's decision: Qatar's ties to Islamist groups, and to Iran, Saudi Arabia's regional rival. Wealthy individuals in Qatar are believed to have made donations and the government has given money and weapons to hardline Islamist groups in Syria. Analysts also say the timing of the decision, two weeks after a visit to Riyadh by US President Donald Trump, is crucial. Mr Trump's speech in Saudi Arabia, in which he blamed Iran for instability in the Middle East and urged Muslim countries to take the lead in combating radicalisation, is likely to have emboldened Gulf allies to act against Qatar. In the same week as Mr Trump's speech, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and the UAE blocked Qatari news sites, including Al Jazeera. Comments purportedly by Qatari Emir, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani, criticising Saudi Arabia had appeared on Qatari state media. The government in Doha dismissed the comments as fake, attributing the report to a "shameful cybercrime". Qatar, which is due to host the football World Cup in 2022, said the decision would "not affect the normal lives of citizens and residents". Iran, Turkey and the US have called on all sides to resolve their differences. Kuwait has offered to mediate talks. Sudan's foreign ministry also called for dialogue and said the country was "fully ready to undertake all efforts in order to achieve calm and reconciliation that would help serve the interests of the people of the region". Qatar's stock market closed down 7.27% on Monday.

Egypt is closing its airspace to Qatari planes in a growing diplomatic row, with Saudi Arabia and Bahrain expected to do the same on Tuesday.

Summarize the following article: Michael O'Neill's men had looked like ending a triumphant campaign with a win having led for most of the match through a Craig Cathcart header. Defender Cathcart, 26, glanced in his first NI goal in the 31st minute after Niall McGinn had clipped in a cross. Central defender Paulus Arajuuri got Finland's equaliser in the 87th minute. It was a disappointing end for Northern Ireland, but they have finished top of a qualifying group for the first time, winning six of their 10 games. They are the first fifth seeds to win a European Championship qualifying group. The draw in Helsinki capped an unbelievable qualifying campaign. Having managed a solitary victory in their World Cup 2014 group, Northern Ireland were in pot five when the draw was made in February 2012. At the time, after discovering NI's Group F opponents, manager Michael O'Neill said: "You could possibly get third place with 14 points, which I think is achievable." Instead, Northern Ireland have topped a group for the first time, winning three away from home Before the campaign, NI had won only three away competitive matches in 13 years. Northern Ireland did not seem to be suffering any ill-effects from the celebrations which followed Thursday's historic win over Greece in Belfast. Michael O'Neill's men had the better chances in the first period and made the breakthrough just after the half-four mark. Paddy McNair picked up possession after a fruitless corner and slipped the ball to McGinn in space on the right side of the penalty area. The Aberdeen winger crossed to the near post and Cathcart, still forward from the set-piece, was there to flash a header across goalkeeper Lukas Hradecky. Cathcart, deputising for the injured Jonny Evans, was making his 23rd international appearance. The visitors waned after the interval and Finland had chances to equalise. They eventually made one count, as Kasper Hamalainen cushioned a lovely header into the path of centre-back Arajuuri who netted a low finish. It meant an anxious last few minutes for Northern Ireland, but they secured the point to win Group F. Northern Ireland manager Michael O'Neill: "I think this group of players fully appreciate what they have achieved and go into Euro 2016 to really embrace and enjoy it. However, we also go there with a point to prove and not only be competitive but to excel and take as much from the tournament as we can. "Of course I'm disappointed not to win the game but we're delighted to top the group and everyone in the dressing room feels exactly the same. We've certainly not got there by any good fortune. "I genuinely believe we're the best team in the group, the most effective team in the group and we finished as top scorers too. The players deserve enormous credit for that."

Summarize the following article: Last year 33cm (13in) lines appeared by disabled bays in Humberstone Road, Chesterton, Cambridge. Now a set separating residents' bays and pay and display parking have appeared in neighbouring Hamilton Road measuring just 28cm (11in). The council said it was "a genuine attempt to be helpful to motorists". "Although we have seen people try and squeeze cars into unusual places such as pedestrian crossings, we don't expect anyone to try and park on these lines," a county council spokesman said. "This is a genuine attempt to be helpful to motorists by signalling with other signs the divide between pay and display parking and residents' parking on this street." The lines were intended to "help drivers park in the right bays and avoid a fine for parking in the wrong one", he added. One resident described the lines as "ridiculous" but admitted she was concerned she might get a ticket if she parked on them. Another described the lines as "cute" and said they were "probably helpful... but should be bigger as you can hardly see them".

A street claiming to be home to the shortest set of double yellow lines in England has been "beaten" by an even shorter set in a nearby road.

Summarize the following article: According to the team, they have helped more than 80,000 undergo the procedure in the past five years. Looking from the outside you would not expect much. It is a 20ft container mounted on to a trailer. What could betray its purpose are the paintings on its sides showing people visiting a health facility. When it rolls into a town, village or sets up on an island, it plugs itself into the local community to get the word out about its services. Out of the truck come tents, tables and medical equipment - it is essentially a moving clinic. On this particular day the team had set up at a health centre in Nakifuma village, about 40km north of the Ugandan capital Kampala. The first person to be circumcised was 18-year-old Frank Kiyaga. He was always scared of the procedure. In fact he ran away when his mother tried to get him to do it. But the truck had been in the neighbourhood for several weeks and his friends convinced him it was safe. According to the World Health Organisation, male circumcision reduces the risk of heterosexual men getting HIV by approximately 60%. But for many in Uganda, getting it done is not easy, mainly because there are not enough safe facilities and it can be expensive. Mr Kiyaga told us: "I walk to this place and it's free of charge. Yet the other place you could get circumcised from is 2km away and you have to pay for the operation. "The other [free] option is Kayunga, which is 30km away." The whole point behind the truck is to offer this potentially lifesaving operation to whoever needs it. Because of the resources available, their work has focused on areas in central Uganda and some islands in Lake Victoria. The organisation behind the innovation is the Makerere University Walter Reed Project, a collaboration between scientists in Kampala and the US military HIV research programme. Fred Magala, who heads up the team operating the truck, says: "You can't move a physical building. "Given limited resources we thought we'd come up with an innovation to ensure that Ugandans access safe male circumcision even when they are living very distant from the healthcare facility" The process of getting circumcised starts with education and testing in the tents set up around the truck. Those under 18 have to get parental consent. Patients are taught about the procedure and its benefits but it is always stressed that it is not guaranteed protection against HIV and that safe sex still needs to be practised. Once they have undergone tests for HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases and been given the all clear, they then climb up the stairs into the vehicle. Inside is a small but well-equipped medical theatre. It has a couple of beds separated by curtains so two patients can be circumcised at a time. Patients entering are given theatre clothing and a change of shoes, the normal practice in many parts of the world. There are heart-rate monitors and oxygen tanks, and every patient is treated with a disposable kit. Back in 2010, the Ugandan government set itself a target of getting 4.2 million men and boys circumcised by the end of this year. But it seems unlikely that that will be reached. A report by the state-run Uganda Aids Commission found that, by the end of 2013, 1.4 million had undergone the procedure. It attributed the slow uptake to misinformation. For example, some tribes that traditionally carry out circumcision saw the clinical approach as weak because of the use of a local anaesthetic; some men were scared about the pain and how long it would take for them to heal; and some women thought it would lessen their partner's sexual performance. The report also found that the operation was not easily accessible for many men, as was the case with Mr Kiyaga. And this is where the truck offers to play a role. We caught up with him after his operation. A local anaesthetic had been used so he was not in pain and was able to wear his tight jeans. He had not told his family he was going ahead with the procedure. We walked home with him to find out their reaction to the news. He lives just 200m from where the truck was parked. His aunt and cousins were at home. She was very pleased. She said: "It's a good thing because Frank was the only one who hadn't been circumcised out of my boys at home. "Some people didn't have the opportunity or luck to get their children circumcised but this has helped them and myself to have children circumcised." Some are already looking at the mobile circumcision truck as an innovation that could be extended to help people get access to a range of healthcare. Having a well-equipped, clean and efficient operating theatre on wheels that can get to many parts of the country could help accident victims, mothers having difficulty giving birth, and those who cannot get to a hospital. Med in Africa is a brand new eight-part series showcasing health innovations across Africa and what these might mean for the future of healthcare on the continent and beyond.

Uganda's mobile circumcision truck has one clear goal: to get as many men and boys as possible circumcised safely.

Summarize the following article: The 32-year-old from Bristol won his first title defence emphatically at Cardiff's Ice Arena after being crowned champion out of the ring last year. He beat 24-year-old Morales - younger brother of the multi-weight world champion Erik - 118-110 on two of the judges' cards and 119-108 on the other. Haskins said: "It's absolutely amazing. I am flying at the moment." Haskins was due to box Randy Caballero for the title last November but was crowned champion when the American was stripped of the belt after failing to make the weight. He now wants an all-British title fight with former IBF champion Stuart Hall, who lost to Haskins in 2012. "All I was thinking during the training for this fight was about Stuart Hall," said Haskins. On the undercard in Cardiff, Welshman Andrew Selby won the British flyweight title with a unanimous points victory over Leicester's Louis Norman.

Lee Haskins retained his IBF world bantamweight title with a unanimous points win over Mexico's Ivan Morales.

Summarize the following article: Greeted by screams and cheers, she talked about her own working-class background in Chicago in a speech at Mulberry School for Girls. The visit is part of her global initiative to promote female education. Accompanied by her two daughters, she also met Prince Harry at Kensington Palace and had tea at Downing Street. Mrs Obama told pupils at the school in Tower Hamlets the world needed "more girls like you to lead our parliaments, our courtrooms and universities". In a speech, she said: "With an education from this amazing school you all have everything, everything you need to rise above all of the noise and fulfil every last one of your dreams. "And it is so important that you do that, not just for yourselves but for all of us. Because you all have a unique perspective, you have a unique voice to add to the conversation." Ben Geoghegan, BBC News This was a very personal - and at moments, emotional - speech, delivered directly to the girls at Mulberry School rather than for the ranks of cameras at the back of the room. The school is in an area of high deprivation. Most of its students are from the Bangladeshi community and, for most, English is an "additional" language. The First Lady compared her upbringing with theirs. As a black teenager on the south side of Chicago she remembered people telling her not to set her sights too high. She broke down the barriers to success. She urged the schoolgirls in east London to do the same and to fulfil their dreams. The "ambitious, confident and principled" students at the Mulberry School were inspired. The question is whether Mrs Obama's message will be heard in those parts of the world where girls don't go to school at all. In her address, Mrs Obama spoke of her own upbringing, saying in her youth there were few black women in positions of power. But she said her parents realised education was the "ultimate key" to success and she could be successful if she worked hard at school. She said: "Through it all my parents fully expected us to do both: to achieve our dreams and be there for our family. Mrs Obama also met International Development Secretary Justine Greening and Education Secretary Nicky Morgan. They announced the UK would be backing Mrs Obama's Let Girls Learn initiative to improve access to education in countries such as Sierra Leone, Liberia and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Earlier the first lady, accompanied by her daughters Sasha, 14, and Malia, 16, and mother, Marian Robinson, met Prince Harry for tea at Kensington Palace. Their meeting came two years after the prince attended a mother's day tea for military mothers with Mrs Obama in the US. A Kensington Palace spokesman said: "They discussed their shared interest in support for veterans and their families. Prince Harry was also interested to hear from the First Lady about the Let Girls Learn initiative." They later spent about 45 minutes with Mr Cameron and wife Samantha in Downing Street, where they arrived in a seven-vehicle convoy. Writing in the Financial Times, Mrs Obama said figures which suggested more than 62 million girls across the world did not go to school were a "heartbreaking injustice". Forced marriages, early pregnancies, abuse and sexism were some of the obstacles to education faced by girls around the world, she said. "That kind of life is unthinkable for the girls in our lives, so why would we accept this fate for any girl on this planet?" she wrote. The US party will fly on to Italy after the London trip to meet US armed services families based in Europe, and to continue to promote Mrs Obama's work to encourage healthy eating among children.

US First Lady Michelle Obama has told pupils at a girls' school in east London that education is the "ultimate key" to their success.

Summarize the following article: The 29-year-old striker is set to tell the Gunners of his decision prior to flying to the national team's base for the tournament in Chantilly, France. England depart from Luton airport at around 11:30 BST. Arsenal have reached an agreement with Leicester and offered Vardy a four-year deal with a significantly higher wage. Vardy is understood to still be mulling over whether he wants to leave the Foxes. He arrived from then non-league side Fleetwood for £1m in 2012 and helped Leicester to the Premier League title last season, scoring 24 goals. Vardy signed a new three-year contract in February and Leicester are reportedly in the process of countering Arsenal's offer with an improved deal of their own.

Jamie Vardy is expected to decide whether he will join Arsenal from Leicester City before leaving for Euro 2016 with England on Monday.

Summarize the following article: The Cheetahs and Southern Kings will join a league that will now be split into two conferences of seven teams. "But that might not be the end of the story," McKay told BBC Scotland. "We may expand further if that is right for the tournament and it is right for the competition - and for the clubs." Since 2010, the Pro12 has included four Welsh club, four from Ireland and two each from Italy and Scotland. "Expanding is in our DNA," said McKay. "We expanded into Italy about seven years ago and expansion was something we are very keen on. "An opportunity came up in South Africa to bring in two quality South African teams into our competition and we were keen to grasp that. "To look at South Africa was something we just couldn't turn down." Southern Kings finished 11th and Cheetahs 13th in this season's Super Rugby table, which also involves clubs from Australia and New Zealand. Although they lost their places for next season as the competition is being cut from 18 teams to 15, McKay thinks their addition to the northern hemisphere competition will be good for the league, clubs, players and supporters. "These are South African teams that have got outstanding players in their ranks, but importantly it gives our players in Scotland exposure in a new market," he said. "It gives them a chance to play in the southern hemisphere. At the moment, the only chance they get to play in the southern hemisphere is either a World Cup or a summer tour. "So this exposes them to a whole new environment, which I think is very exciting for the coaches and for the players. "With more teams coming in, the challenge increases, but that's something our coaches, players and us as administrators are up for." Although Glasgow and Edinburgh will be in separate conferences, cross-conference matches mean there will be one extra Scottish derby. "The exciting thing is that we have Glasgow and Edinburgh playing each other three times this year," said McKay. "We have listened to our supporters who love the derby games, so we'll expand the number of derbies this year, but it also gives them the opportunity to watch outstanding rugby from the southern hemisphere as well." McKay also hopes an expansion, predicted to bring in an extra £6m in revenue annually, will help Scottish Rugby find external investment for their two professional clubs. "We said last year we wanted to take into the market place the possibility of investment into Glasgow Warriors and Edinburgh Rugby and we've had a number of conversations - and a number of those conversations are ongoing just now," he added. "We are in a good place. There is no doubt that enhancing our league and developing the competition in which Glasgow and Edinburgh play in can only assist us with that particular process. "Expanding into new territories and growing the league and growing the opportunities for Glasgow Warriors and Edinburgh Rugby, both commercially off the field and on the filed, can only be good for those discussions."

Adding two South African teams to become the Pro14 might not mark the end of the competition's expansion into other territories, says Scottish Rugby chief operating officer Dominic McKay.

Summarize the following article: The 23-year-old's chances have been limited for the Cherries so far this campaign after joining from Wolves for £10m in January. "Not being part of the team has been a different kind of challenge," he told BBC Radio Solent. "But the manager has never lost faith in me. "I didn't sulk at being left out, but perhaps I didn't train as hard." Arsenal academy graduate Afobe is yet to start a Premier League game for Bournemouth this season, but the former England Under-21 international has remained positive. "I'm not someone that really sulks or is what they call in football 'a bad egg', or someone that starts gossiping and affecting the changing room," he added. "I was a bit too down to start with, but after the chat with the manager, I've been better in training in the last couple of months and the opportunities have come. "The smile is definitely back on my face." Afobe credits some of his upturn in mood to being reunited with his "best mate in football", Jack Wilshere. On-loan Arsenal midfielder Wilshere, 24, and Afobe forged their friendship as trainees under Arsene Wenger. "Jack's a top guy who speaks to everyone and is really humble," Afobe said. "He's really lifted the quality in training since he's arrived and he's a great role model to any young players. He works hard and has stayed the same throughout his career." Afobe has two fronts to focus on this season as he not only chases more starts for Bournemouth but also a place in DR Congo's squad for the Africa Cup of Nations in January. His latest international call-up ended in frustration as he travelled all the way to Africa, only for an administration error to prevent him from playing. "Basically, the FA sent my paperwork to the wrong Congo," revealed Afobe, who is yet to make his full international debut for the country of his parents. "Transferring it took about 10 days and once Fifa had cleared their workload with all the internationals on around the world, it was the day after the World Cup qualifier against Guinea. "But, in order for me to get used to the squad and the conditions, it was worth making the trip and the team won 2-1. "I was disappointed not to play at the time, but the main thing is returning to the club injury-free. Club always comes before country and right now, I want to be available for Bournemouth as much as possible." Benik Afobe was talking to BBC Radio Solent's Kris Temple.

Bournemouth striker Benik Afobe says the smile has returned to his face after a difficult start to this season.

Summarize the following article: Eric Dier's stoppage-time header sealed a 3-2 win for Roy Hodgson's side in Berlin's Olympiastadion. Toni Kroos and Mario Gomez had put Germany two goals up but Harry Kane and substitute Jamie Vardy levelled for England. "We all need to take a look at ourselves and work hard now," said Juventus' Khedira. "We did a lot right up until the second goal, then after that we were much worse - and England punished us. "However, we played well for an hour. We need to play well for 90 minutes against Italy [in Tuesday's friendly] and in the European Championship." Germany striker Gomez said the defeat was "inexcusable". "We were playing very well until we were 2-0 up but we didn't use enough of our chances," he added. "Afterwards, we stood off our opponents too much and England are very strong from set-pieces."

Saturday's friendly defeat by England was "unnecessary and stupid", according to Germany midfielder Sami Khedira.

Summarize the following article: "When China sneezes, the rest of the world catches a cold," was how one Chinese netizen described the aftermath of the fall. Thousands of other users also reacted across the Chinese internet. "Looks like Black Monday has become Tumble Tuesday," remarked one user on China's microblogging platform Weibo. "This is the Great Fall of China. First the Tianjin tragedy and now stock market sadness. Let's keep our heads up," said another. Weibo users were also expressing their worries and their questions about "long-term volatility" of Chinese stocks. "I don't understand why our stock market has become so volatile," said another. "Can someone tell us clear reasons behind this? It's frustrating and scary for one holding stocks right now." News about the "tidal wave impact" of China's stock market also spread to Twitter, where users began tweeting using the #BlackMonday hashtag. Concerned or curious Google users also searched for stock market news, and it soon became a top trend. Others began to wonder if things were going to get worse. "After Black Monday now comes Dark Tuesday?" wrote Hong Kong Twitter user and journalist George Chen. "The Shanghai benchmark index sunk 6.4% at opening as the central bank allowed Ren Men Bi [China's yuan currency] to devalue again." A curious sculpture of a bull riding a bear in the southeastern port city of Xiamen has also struck a chord with Chinese netizens. Bulls are considered the symbols of confident economy, the opposite totem - when the economy is retreating - being a bear. Some have described the 3.4m-high (11ft), three-tonne statue, sitting outside an art museum, as an unofficial "symbol of hope". "Let's hope this bull can bear the stock market pressure," commented one Weibo user. Another user said: "After all the turmoil, looking at it gives me strength." Visitors have also been flocking to Xiamen to catch a glimpse of the copper statue, with some even making offerings by placing joss sticks and food around its feet. The owner of the statue also told Chinese state broadcaster CCTV News that it was indeed "related to the current stock market".

Chinese stocks continue to tumble, a day after "Black Monday" sent markets crashing across the globe.

Summarize the following article: The armed gangs are based in a forest, from where they raid nearby villages. Defence Minister Mansur Dan Ali told the BBC that about 1,000 troops would be deployed immediately, with more would joining later. Hundreds of people have been killed in villages in and around Zamfara in the last three years. President Buhari has faced criticism for not focusing earlier on what is being described as the country's third security crisis, behind the Boko Haram insurgency in the north-east and the growing militant attacks on oils pipelines in the southern Niger Delta region. Africa Live: More on this and other African stories There are fears that fighters from Islamist militant group Boko Haram may have joined the gangs in Zamfara. A large swathe of forest spreading from Zamfara to neighbouring states is now referred to as the "New Sambisa", after the forest where Boko Hararm militants are holed up in the north-eastern Borno state, reports BBC Hausa's Aliyo Tanko. Thousands have been forced to flee their homes following the violence in Zamfara and surrounding states of Katsina, Kaduna, Niger and Kano. Residents of the affected areas have accused the local authorities of failing to defend them.

Nigeria's President Muhammadu Buhari has sent a special military task force to combat cattle rustlers in the north-western state of Zamfara.

Summarize the following article: The 10 trees have been nominated by members of the public for the competition run by the Woodland Trust charity. A public vote will decide the winner, which will then compete against trees from across the Continent for the title of European Tree of the Year. The online voting ends on 9 October. The Woodland Trust said a panel of experts whittled down 200 public nominations based on the nominees' story, The winning tree will benefit from a care grant of £1,000 and any tree receiving over 1,000 votes will receive a grant of £500. Nominations include the "Sycamore Gap" tree near Hadrian's Wall in Northumberland. It appeared alongside Kevin Costner in the 1991 film Robin Hood Prince of Thieves. Another finalist is a tree in Sheffield which is threatened with felling as part of the city's street improvement scheme. Local campaigner Paul Selby, who nominated the tree, said "Reaching the shortlist for Tree of the Year highlights the national importance and recognition of the Chelsea Road Elm Tree. Another nominee that was facing the axe is the Seven Dials Elm tree in Brighton. The 130 year old tree was due to be chopped down as part of a new road scheme. Following a public campaign the road was rerouted. The oldest tree on the list is the Bowthorpe Oak, which stands in a field in Manthorpe, Lincolnshire. It is more than 1,000 years old and its hollow trunk has been used for parties. Another contender is the mulberry that stands in the grounds of Wakefield Prison which it is thought may have inspired the nursery rhyme Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush. Women prisoners were said to have made up the rhyme as they danced around the tree with their children in the former House of Correction's exercise yard. The "mother" of all modern Bramley Apple trees is another finalist. Planted at Southwell in Nottinghamshire more than 200 years ago cuttings from the tree were transplanted across across the UK in the 19th Century. Other nominees include the Howletts Sweet Chestnut, Canterbury, Kent, the Umbrella Tree at Levens Hall, Cumbria, the King John's Oak in Shute Park, Devon and Old Knobbley, in Mistley, Essex.

A 1,000 year-old oak and a sycamore that featured in a Hollywood blockbuster are among the finalists for England's Tree of the Year award.

Summarize the following article: The 76-year-old said she was "thrilled" to be playing Carol Tregorran, a role originally played by Anne Cullen. Listeners learned Carol had returned to Ambridge to attend the funeral of her husband John in Friday's episode. Sean O'Connor, editor of The Archers, said Bron "fitted [in] as if she has been here for 30 years". "In the 1950s, Carol was a significant role model for young women," continued O'Connor, a former EastEnders producer who took over his Archers role last September. "We hope she will continue to be so for older women today - an independent, spirited woman who embraces her later years on her own terms and without compromise." Carol Grey made her first appearance in The Archers in 1954 and married John Tregorran in 1967. She and John left Ambridge in 1990, returning for special occasions in 2007 and 2010. Her place in Archers history is assured, having been dining at Grey Gables on the famous night in 1955 when Grace Archer was killed in a fire. Bron, who began her career with the Cambridge Footlights in 1959 and appeared in such classic 1960s films as Help! and Alfie, described Carol as "quite forceful and independent, even now in her 80s". "Now she has returned to Ambridge she is able to be around friends," she went on. "There's something very wonderful when you can pick up those sorts of friendships and see them play out in a drama."

Eleanor Bron has joined the cast of Radio 4's rural drama series The Archers, playing a character who first appeared in it 60 years ago.

Summarize the following article: The footage was captured by a colleague who said he had raised the problem with employers without result. The vehicle was being driven through the Leicestershire countryside towards Market Harborough, with the driver telling someone to apply for a job. Operator FCC Environmental said the driver would remain suspended while a "full investigation" took place. The footage shows the lorry going through a village, passing several HGVs and being steered with one hand. The unidentified driver is talking throughout the short clip. It was filmed by an unnamed colleague in September last year, shortly before he left the company. He told the Daily Mirror: "I would repeatedly tell him not to do it. "I couldn't believe it - a child could have run out at any moment or he could have ploughed into a house. "I took it to the bosses, but they just never seemed to do anything about it." Northampton-based FCC Environmental is contracted by Harborough District Council for bin collections, street cleaning, recycling and grounds maintenance. A spokesman said it was taking the incident "very seriously" and "the business has in place strict operating procedures that explicitly prohibits the use of handheld mobile phones whilst driving company vehicles". A spokesman for road safety charity Brake said: "It is particularly concerning to see this footage of an at-work driver using a mobile phone. "We work with a range of companies to encourage them to put into place best practice policies. This includes ensuring that drivers never use their phones whilst driving - no call is worth risking a life."

A refuse collector filmed using his mobile phone while driving down a country lane has been suspended.

Summarize the following article: The condition, acute pulmonary oedema, was caused by "a heart rhythm disorder", post-mortem tests revealed. Foley, 42, died on Saturday night at the hotel in Paris where Munster were staying before Sunday's scheduled game against Racing 92. His funeral will be held in Killaloe, County Clare, on Friday at 12:00 BST. Foley's body will be flown to Shannon Airport on Wednesday before being taken to the family home. Funeral mass will take place at St Flannan's Church, with burial afterwards at Relig Nua Cemetery. The death of the former Ireland forward could "be linked to a cardiac problem", a spokeswoman for the Nanterre public prosecutor said on Tuesday. Other toxicological analysis is under way, with results due in the coming weeks. Pulmonary oedema means excess fluid collects in numerous air sacks in the lungs, making it difficult to breathe. Foley's body was found in his room at 12:40 on Sunday by a member of hotel staff and a Munster player. The European Champions Cup game was postponed. Foley won 62 Ireland caps and made 201 appearances in the back row for Munster, leading them to their first European Cup triumph in 2006.

Munster head coach Anthony Foley died after a heart condition caused fluid to build up in his lungs, a French coroner has said.

Summarize the following article: Speaking at the agency's annual World Health Assembly, Dr Chan said experts had "dropped the ball" in the 1970s with regards to getting a handle on disease-carrying insects. More than 60 countries and territories now have continuing Zika transmission. Most recently, the infection, spread by mosquito bites, reached Africa. Experts predict the same strain could reach Europe in the summer. The virus is thought to cause serious birth defects during pregnancy and has been declared a global public health emergency. According to Dr Chan, outbreaks that become emergencies always reveal specific weaknesses in affected countries and illuminate the fault lines in our collective preparedness. "Zika reveals an extreme consequence of the failure to provide universal access to sexual and family planning services," she said. Dr Chan added that Latin America and the Caribbean, which have been hit hard by Zika, have the highest proportion of unintended pregnancies in the world. Microcephaly: 'It's not the end of the world' Life for a girl who has the condition What you need to know Key questions answered about the virus and its spread Travel advice Countries affected and what you should do The mosquito behind spread of virus What we know about the insect Abortion dilemma Laws and practices in Catholic Latin America Above all, she said the spread of Zika was "the price being paid for a massive policy failure that dropped the ball on mosquito control in the 1970s". Eradication campaigns were successful in the Americas with 18 countries getting rid of the insect by 1962. But insecticide resistance plus a lack of political will led to the Aedes aegypti mosquito rebounding. "With no vaccines and no reliable and widely available diagnostic tests, to protect women of childbearing age, all we can offer is advice. "Avoid mosquito bites. Delay pregnancy. Do not travel to areas with ongoing transmission," said Dr Chan.

The spread of Zika is the price being paid for a massive policy failure on mosquito control, says World Health Organization leader Margaret Chan.

Summarize the following article: Thieves stole cigarettes in the raid at the Co-op shop in Lawers Drive at about 04:10 on Thursday after driving the car through the shop's front doors. A black BMW, which was stolen in Carnoustie, was used in the incident. The car has now been linked to an attempted break-in to Size clothing shop in High Street, Dundee at about 03:50 on Thursday. Police said the front window of shop was smashed but the thieves did not gain access. The stolen BMW was recovered in the Happyhillock area of Dundee on Thursday evening. Det Chf Insp Iain Wales said: "It is believed that the BMW travelled to the Happyhillock area immediately following the break-in to the Co-op at Broughty Ferry and I would appeal for anyone who may have saw the car either being driven or being parked in the area to contact Police Scotland."

A stolen car used in a ram-raid on a Broughty Ferry supermarket has been traced by police in Dundee.

And the time of year when the underdogs give their decrepit stand a lick of paint, throw open their doors to the television cameras and do their best to produce a result which will satisfy the locals for years. It's the FA Cup third round... and once again it provided plenty of drama. Here's how it all unfolded, through the eyes of the BBC football live text commentary.

It's the time of year when youngsters up and down the country raid the tin foil drawer and make a pretend FA Cup trophy.

Summarize the following article: The News Letter leads with a call from from the brother of a Claudy bombing victim for a "proper investigation" into the 1972 attack. William Temple, 16, was one of nine killed when the IRA set off three bombs in the County Londonderry village. "My family want Claudy to be given the focus and priority that it never has been," his brother David said. "We want a proper investigation which has a stating point of going to and uncovering the truth of what happened." No one has ever been charged with the bombing. The son of another IRA victim, Jean McConville, has died following a battle with cancer, reports the Daily Mirror. Mrs McConville, a mother of 10, became one of the Disappeared who were kidnapped, killed, and secretly buried by the IRA during the Troubles. Billy McConville, 50, and his siblings were placed into care after his mother went missing in 1972. In 2014, he gave evidence to the Historical Instituational Abuse (HIA) inquiry alleging that he had been physically and sexually abused during this time in care at Rubane House in County Down. In January, the HIA inquiry recommended payments to survivors of abuse at children's residential homes. The paper reports that Mr McConville had recently called on politicians to secure justice and compensation for abuse survivors. His brother Thomas told the Mirror: "Before he died, he spoke to all of us and he told us to keep fighting for justice for the abuses that were suffered. "It's very sad Billy didn't live long enough to see justice for what he went through but we will stand strong together and we'll fight on right to the end." The Irish News reports that Sinn Féin "is not for moving" over the current political stalement. The party's northern leader, Michelle O'Neil, tells the paper that "there will be no compromise on Sinn Féin's key demands for the restoration of a Stormont executive". However, she said she is "optimistic that devolution can be restored before Christmas". Her comments come after power-sharing talks failed to resolve political deadlock which has been in place since the executive collapsed in January. The Belfast Telegraph reports that a former leader of the Presbyterian Church has faced criticism after claiming the Orange Order had problems with bigotry. It quoted the Reverend Ken Newell who said there was "a reservoir of anti-Catholicism and sectarianism" in the institution. But Democratic Unionist Party MP Sir Jeffrey Donaldson, told the paper Mr Newell "needs to catch up with the times". Ulster Unionist Tom Elliot echoed his sentiments and said he "strongly refuted" Mr Newell's comments which "do not reflect the reality of what most members are like". Staying with the Orange Order, the News Letter carries reports on two separate attacks on Orange Halls in County Antrim and County Down. Paint was thrown over Rosedernat Orange Hall outside Cloughmills between 23:30 BST on Saturday and 11:30 BST on Sunday. A union flag was also removed and a flag was damaged at Roden Orange Hall in Kilkeel on Sunday. A Grand Lodge spokesman told the paper: "Although the nature of the incidents is clearly different, the criminal intent is very much the same by the bigoted and narrow-minded individuals responsible. "They have noting to offer society, only division and their actions must be universally condemned". The Irish News says RTÉ is to publish the salaries of 10 of its most highly paid presenters. The Irish public service broadcaster already publishes the data every two years, but has announced it is to bring forward its next publication within weeks. RTÉ also said it will conduct a review of "role and gender equality across the organisation". Earlier this month, the BBC revealed salary figures of its highest earners, sparking controversy at the pay gap between men and women presenters. A heart-warming wartime reunion features in Tuesday's Belfast Telegraph. Sam Bargewell, now 85, was sent to live with Meta McConaghie, 78, and her sister May Knox, 82, on their family farm in Armoy, County Antrim, during the Second World War. Their chance reunion came after May heard an announcement on the radio that a Sam Bargewell was performing for charity in a hotel in Coleraine, County Londonderry. With hope that it might be the friend they had made so many years ago, May and her sister Meta went to the concert and spoke after the event. Sam told the paper: "It was very emotional for us all to meet up again. "It was lovely to see Meta and May after 73 years."

Power-sharing talks, attacks on Orange halls and wartime reunions all make the front pages on Tuesday's papers.

Summarize the following article: The attacker, who was dressed in a security uniform and reportedly made references to Allah, was shot dead by an off-duty police officer on Saturday. The so-called Islamic State claimed the man was one of its supporters, but the FBI said no link had been found. The attack happened in St Cloud, 70 miles (110km) out of Minneapolis. None of the victims suffered life threatening injuries. The FBI's Rick Thornton said it was too early to say whether the attack was linked to international terrorism. He said: "We are currently investigating this as a potential act of terrorism. And I do say potential. We do not at this point in time know whether the subject was in contact with, had connections with, was inspired by, a foreign terrorist organisation." The attacker asked at least one person if they were Muslim, according to St Cloud Police Chief Blair Anderson. An off-duty police officer shot and killed the suspect, Mr Anderson said. The suspect, who has not been officially identified, was said to have been wearing the uniform of a private security firm when the attack occurred. The media arm of IS said in a statement that the attacker had carried out the operation "in response to calls to target the citizens of countries belonging to the crusader coalition".

The FBI has said it is treating a stabbing attack at a shopping centre in Minnesota that injured eight people as a potential act of terrorism.

Summarize the following article: All 89 of the most senior employees whose ethnicity has been declared are white (there are also three senior staff who have not stated this information). In contrast five out of six workers in the lowest pay grade are ethnic minorities. The Lord Speaker Baroness D'Souza, a cross-bench peer who chairs House sittings, described the data as "disappointing". She said she would be monitoring progress from now on. Lord Ouseley, formerly chair of the Commission for Racial Equality, warned that the House's top positions form "a 'no entry' area for BME employees". The figures have been released by the House of Lords in response to a BBC Freedom of Information request about the ethnic profile of the House's own workforce, numbering nearly 600, from clerks to catering. It does not include researchers and other staff directly employed by peers themselves, or bicameral staff shared with the Commons. The seven top pay bands range from £49,083 to £176,226 including the senior clerks and managers of administrative workers. The maximum salary in a pay range containing a declared black or ethnic minority employee is £42,686. The FOI request revealed black and minority ethnic workers are overwhelmingly concentrated in the House's lower pay bands, with over half the BME workforce employed in housekeeping, catering and retail. Five out of six workers at the lowest pay level are BME, earning between £17,135 and £17,744 a year. This is just above the annual London "living wage", which based on the Lords' 36 hour working week would be £17,128.80. Overall, 13% of Lords staff have declared themselves as BME. London's working population is currently 37% BME. But in the chamber itself only 6% of peers are ethnic minority. The ethnic profile of House of Commons staff follows a similar pattern to the Lords, but is less extreme. It has just 6% BME representation in the top seven pay levels, with 40% at the catering level. The Commons launched a diversity scheme in 2012, aiming to improve minority representation at senior levels. It issues an annual report containing ethnic data of this sort. But the House of Lords has no equivalent formal published strategy with regular monitoring data. A Lords spokesman said: "The House values diversity in its staff and is working hard to improve its record in this area. Our record on diversity has not been good enough but is improving and will continue to do so." The Lords administration argues that change at senior levels is slow because of the House's relatively low staff turnover rate, which is well down on the national average. The House has revamped its application process to promote equality and says it is widening access to development opportunities. But Lord Ouseley accused the House administration of recruiting and promoting from sources that are too restricted. He said: "If it wants to achieve diversity at the middle and higher pay grades, the Lords will have to cut away from the sources which deliver more of the same and pursue avenues that would enhance the gathering of talent from a bigger and more diverse pool of talent. "It will only ever change if there is a political determination to make equality a reality, and that is not about to happen."

There are no black or minority ethnic (BME) staff reported in the top seven pay levels of the House of Lords administration, according to data obtained by the BBC.

Summarize the following article: The new offer is understood to be in the region of 2tn yen (£14bn). Toshiba needs to sell the unit after an accounting scandal and cost overruns at its Westinghouse nuclear unit. Western Digital, which jointly runs Toshiba's main semiconductor plant, has been feuding bitterly with its Japanese partner. It has sought a US court injunction to prevent any deal that does not have its consent. But Toshiba wants to sell to a different bidder. The Japanese technology giant wants to nail down an agreement to sell to a consortium led by the Japanese government by Wednesday, the day of Toshiba's annual shareholders meeting. The consortium, which includes Bain Capital, has previously offered around 2tn yen. Western Digital has a 49% stake in the unit thanks to its joint venture with Toshiba, which has been in existence for 17 years. The US company has said the deal grants both parties rights including consent to the disposal of assets. The BBC has seen a letter sent by Western Digital's board to Toshiba in which they warn they "will not consent to a transaction with the proposed consortium" because of concerns over the involvement of South Korean rival SK Hynix, which they fear will try to benefit from the technology at stake. "SK Hynix paid hundreds of millions of dollars to Toshiba just two years ago to settle claims that it misappropriated critical JV technology," the letter said. "SK Hynix's participation in a consortium purchasing Toshiba's interests in the JVs increases the likelihood of technology leakage and harm to the JVs going forward," it added. Toshiba wants to sell the unit quickly to cover billions of dollars in cost overruns at its bankrupt Westinghouse nuclear unit and to dig itself out of negative shareholder equity that could lead to a delisting. Last week, Toshiba warned its losses for 2016 may be greater than it had previously forecast. It predicted a net loss of 995bn yen (£7bn) for the year to March, up from its earlier estimate of 950bn yen. The firm was demoted to the second tier of the Tokyo Exchange after confirming its liabilities outweighed its assets. It also got regulatory approval to delay filing its annual earnings again, this time until 10 August, after a previous deadline extension to 30 June.

Western Digital has resubmitted its bid for Toshiba's flagship flash memory unit amid a battle over the sale of the business.

Summarize the following article: In a blog post on the Channel 4 website, Snow said the Jimmy Savile scandals had forced him to confront his own experience. Snow praises the "courageous individuals" who have come forward in the wake of the scandal. He says no effort should be spared in responding to them. Snow had previously written in his autobiography about the 1953 incident but said the "swirl of allegation and denial" at the current time forced many to "relive the abuse inflicted upon them". "I know this in part because in a small way I too was a victim as a child," he said. "This is a dramatic moment in the affairs of men and women; we shall all be tested. But don't underestimate what this time means to the abused. "I know, I was six years old when a member of the domestic staff at the school, where my father taught, abducted me. 'Witch-hunt' "He took me to his room and undressed me, and then himself. Thank heavens someone saw the abduction and eventually a member of staff intervened and rescued me. "I remember to this day fretting over not being able to do my braces up. And I admit that I have found Savile regurgitating the guilt and confusion that I felt." The news anchor, 65, stressed the importance of treading with "diligence and great care" in handling allegations of sexual assault. "No amount of effort in responding to complainants must be spared, but neither must it be allowed to become a witch-hunt. We face some delicate balances in which the welfare of many is at stake. But I suspect the journey has only just begun," he said. Jimmy Savile is alleged to have committed over 200 offences over 50 years, a report revealed in January. The NSPCC said Savile, a former BBC DJ and presenter who died in 2011, had been one of the most prolific sex offenders in its 129-year history. A spokeswoman for the child protection charity told the BBC the Savile revelations had caused hundreds of people who had been abused as children to contact them. She said: "Hearing that Savile's victims had come forward gave them the strength to tell us what had happened to them. Many were speaking out for the first time. "We know from our work with victims of child abuse that it is not unusual for them to be silenced for years because of fear and shame. Also they are often worried they will not be believed or taken seriously. "No more children should have to suffer like this. We would urge anyone who is worried that a child is being abused to contact the NSPCC helpline on 0808 800 5000 for help and advice."

The Channel 4 News presenter Jon Snow has recalled how he was abducted and abused by a member of staff at his school when he was six years old.

Summarize the following article: This might sound like a line from Yes Scotland's latest campaign leaflet, but it was actually said over a century ago. In 1913, William Cowan presented a successful Scottish home rule bill to Westminster, but the outbreak of World War One prevented the creation of a strong Scottish parliament which could have completely changed Scotland's modern history. This is the story of Scotland's parliament that never was. For most of the 1800s, Scottish political nationalism remained dormant. Although the UK was technically run by one Westminster parliament, much of the day-to-day running of Scottish affairs was carried out within Scotland which meant there was little appetite for independence or the establishment of a Scottish parliament. Moreover, many of Scotland's ruling elite were educated in English schools and benefited financially from the Empire, meaning most Scottish MPs were very much part of, rather than opposed to, the British establishment. However, the introduction of the 1872 Education Act - which legislated for Scottish school boards which were supervised by London - and the creation of the Scottish Office in 1885, meant more and more decisions affecting Scotland were made outside of Scotland. On top of that, the Irish home rule movement was rapidly gaining strength in the late 1800s, creating a feeling within Scotland that Ireland was getting unfair preferential treatment. In 1894, a Scottish Home Rule Association was established with the aim of setting up a devolved parliament in Edinburgh. One of its grievances, which may resonate with modern-day Scots who watched Team GB at the Olympics, was "against the mis-use of the terms 'England' and 'English' for 'Britain', its Empire, its people and its institutions." With the Home Rule Association's leadership, Scottish home rule was debated seven times in parliament between 1886 and 1900, although none of this discussion led to a successful bill. A change came with the establishment in 1900 of The Young Scots, an offshoot of the Liberal Party committed to social reform which strongly believed in Scottish home rule. By 1914, they had 10,000 members in 50 branches, with 30 of its members having been elected to Westminster. With increasing power, The Young Scots made home rule a central feature of national politics in the run up to the First World War. The culmination of these efforts resulted in the 1913 home rule bill, which was presented to parliament by William Cowan MP. When Mr Cowan presented the bill to parliament, he gave a speech which will sound familiar to those following the 2014 independence debate. His opening statement could easily be describing present day Scotland, saying: "You cannot nowadays take up a Scottish newspaper with very much chance of finding no reference to this burning question. "I do not care who goes to Scotland today, if he speaks to anybody, if he goes anywhere, if he consults the people, he will find that this is the most absorbing political topic in Scotland." His arguments for home rule might also resonate with 'Yes' voters today, as he cheekily cited lack of interest in Scotland from English MPs. He said: "English members will be conspicuous by their absence, or will be represented by gentlemen who, having shootings, fishings, or deer forests in Scotland, imagine themselves experts on Scottish affairs and insist on wasting our time and their own by intervening in Scottish debates." Summing up his argument, he said: "Is it any wonder Scotland is tired and demands a parliament of her own? That she demands her own legislation for land, for the liquor trade, for education, for housing, for fisheries, for ecclesiastical affairs, for one-hundred-and-one matters of purely local concern?" The press reaction might seem familiar too, with a 1913 Spectator article asking of the proposals "Are we to establish a customs line along the Roman Wall, with an army of watchers to prevent smuggling?" The powers outlined for the 1913 Scottish parliament actually outdo what the current Scottish parliament has. Its powers would have included pensions, national insurance, labour exchanges and all "purely Scottish affairs." Or, as William Cowan, explained: "The powers of the Scottish parliament will closely resemble those of the Irish parliament, with the exception that we do not desire to control the Post Office." It would have left to the UK parliament matters involving the crown, war, foreign affairs, national defence, immigration, trademarks, coinage, weights and measures, external trade, postal service, public loans to Scotland before the passing of the Act, and the collection of taxes. Also, weirdly, Scottish lighthouses. The bill was given its second reading in parliament in May 1914. However, weeks later, on 28 June, Archduke Franz Ferdinand was shot in Sarajevo, starting the series of events which led to the First World War. During the war, parliament continued to sit without interruption, but mainly dealt with measures for the conduct of the war, both at home and on the front line. For the duration of the war, at least, Scottish devolution was simply forgotten about. After the war, home rule was brought up again in parliament in the 1920s, but Scottish political nationalism faded as a force in the late 1920s and 30s, and didn't enter mainstream politics again until the SNP won its first Westminster seat in 1945. It's hard to tell how much Scotland's modern political history might have changed if Scotland had been granted a parliament in 1914. However, leading historian Tom Devine says: "My bet would be in the long run it might have promoted a more federal approach and so a stabilisation of the Union." If Scotland votes 'Yes' on Thursday, 1914 might be looked back on as a great "What if?" of Scottish history.

"We have a right, with all our separate national characteristics, to manage our own affairs in our own way."

Summarize the following article: Mr Coulson, 44, was questioned in Glasgow as part of an investigation into evidence at the perjury trial of former MSP Tommy Sheridan in 2010. He was detained at his south London home on Wednesday by Strathclyde Police and formally arrested that evening. The ex-News of the World editor was a Downing Street employee at the time he was a witness at Glasgow's High Court. Mr Coulson was detained at his south London home at 06:30 BST on Wednesday. He arrived at Govan police station shortly before 15:30 BST and was held for about six hours before being released. A Crown Office spokesman said there was no legal obligation for Coulson to stay in Scotland, and he was free to return to his home in London. The spokesman said no date had been set for any court appearance. A decision will now be taken by Scotland's prosecution service, the procurator fiscal, about whether Mr Coulson should face a trial. Earlier, a police spokeswoman said: "Officers from Strathclyde Police's Operation Rubicon team detained a 44-year-old man in London this morning under section 14 of the Criminal Procedure Scotland Act 1995 on suspicion of committing perjury before the High Court in Glasgow." By Norman SmithChief political correspondent, BBC News Channel Throughout the twists and turns of the hacking scandal, the constant aim of Downing Street has been to insulate the prime minister from the swirl of allegations that have engulfed some of his friends and political colleagues. That task has become all the harder with the decision by Strathclyde Police to charge Andy Coulson with perjury. Read more from Norman Mr Coulson gave evidence at the trial of former Scottish Socialist MSP Tommy Sheridan in 2010. Sheridan was awarded ??200,000 in damages from the News of the World in 2006 after it printed allegations that he had committed adultery and visited a swingers' club. After the court action, the former MSP and his wife Gail were charged with perjury. She was acquitted during the subsequent trial but Sheridan was convicted in December 2010. He has since been freed after serving just over a year of a three-year sentence. Mr Coulson was called to give evidence at Sheridan's trial over two days as he was editor of the News of the World between 2003 and 2007. During heated exchanges with Sheridan, who represented himself at the trial, Mr Coulson denied being involved in, or aware of, any illegal activities, including phone hacking. Mr Coulson resigned from the post of Mr Cameron's director of communications in January 2011, saying coverage of the News of the World phone hacking scandal had "made it difficult to give the 110% needed in this role". In July 2011, he was arrested by Metropolitan Police investigating the News of the World hacking scandal and later released on bail. BBC chief political correspondent Norman Smith said: "Unlike the arrest of Mr Coulson last year by the London Metropolitan Police - which centred on claims about hacking during his time as editor of the News of the World - this arrest relates to a period when Mr Coulson was working as David Cameron's director of communications."

Prime Minister David Cameron's former director of communications Andy Coulson has been charged with perjury.

The Test against Tonga will be staged in another country, due to concerns over the the stadium in Nuku'alofa. Forwards coach Robin McBryde will lead the trip while Warren Gatland and Rob Howley are involved in the British and Irish Lions tour of New Zealand. Wales trained at the Colwyn Bay ground in preparation for the 2015 Rugby World Cup while Wales Under-20 have played there in the Six Nations. "We are delighted to be heading to north Wales this summer," McBryde said. "The facilities are great at Parc Eirias and will provide us with the exactly what we are looking for in terms of a training camp. "Not only will the match be hugely important for the squad off the field, it will be a great spectacle to see RGC line up against the Welsh side and a huge opportunity for all those players." McBryde will be joined on the tour by regional coaches Danny Wilson, Matt Sherratt and Stephen Jones who will be part of his backroom staff. Apart from any Lions who are selected, Wales will field a full strength side against RGC 1404, who are fourth in the Premiership table and knocked holders Llandovery out to reach the Welsh Cup semi-finals earlier in March.

Wales will play Welsh Premiership side RGC 1404 at Parc Eirias on 2 June.

Summarize the following article: Hundreds of sheep, cows and donkeys are corralled or tethered to metal bars where they are inspected by butchers and other prospective buyers. The sound of bleating and neighing competes against intense haggling over the final price. Kashgar remains a city where trading is very much in the blood. It stands on the Silk Road - the trade route of ancient times stretching from the eastern Chinese city of Xian to the eastern shores of the Mediterranean. With the advent of major shipping lanes, however, the overland routes fell out of use and Kashgar became something of a backwater. But now Kashgar is experiencing its biggest economic boom in living memory. Beijing is pouring billions of dollars into a city which it designated as a special economic zone back in 2010 - one of only half a dozen such zones in the country. The authorities want to transform Kashgar into the transport hub of old - opening up markets in Central Asia and beyond. "The opportunities here are priceless," says Zhang Yunjian, a spokesman for Gangzhou New City project in Kashgar. "That's why you see so many investors coming to the city to start businesses." Currently the largest construction project underway in Kashgar, the development is will house 100,000 people and have a shopping complex along with recreational facilities. "I believe that Kashgar could one day catch up and even surpass the development we see in other Chinese cities," says Zhang Yunjian. Beijing believes that economic development will help ease ethnic tensions not only in Kashgar but across the remote western Chinese region of Xinjiang - one of the poorest parts in the country. Xinjiang is home to approximately nine million Uighurs, a Turkic ethnic minority. The Chinese authorities frequently accuse Uighurs of fomenting unrest - and some activists do want their own independent state. In 2009, the region witnessed an explosion of ethnic violence partly fuelled by economic grievances. In the capital, Urumqi, Uighurs clashed with Han Chinese - the majority ethnic group in China. Almost 200 people were killed. All the development is changing the face of Kashgar and not just in terms of construction. Source: Kashgar City Government website A decade ago the city was almost entirely Uighur but now a third of the population is Han Chinese, according to local officials. This migration is creating a fresh set of tensions. Many Uighurs complain that they are not sharing in the economic boom. They say that most of the profits are going to Han Chinese entrepreneurs. "We aren't really seeing any benefit from all the construction," said one Uighur, whose family have made traditional musical instruments for generations. "Why else would they (Han Chinese) travel thousands of kilometres if they weren't profiting?" Evidence of the tensions in Kashgar is everywhere. A fire engine sits outside the city's biggest mosque equipped with a water cannon ready to disperse any angry crowd. In Kashgar's main square, under the watchful gaze of a six-storey-high statue of Chairman Mao, there are dozens of armed police, armoured personnel carriers, along with military trucks and vans. Check-points ring the city where Uighurs have to get out of their vehicles to show their identity cards and sometimes be frisked. Han Chinese tourists visiting the city travel with police escorts. Armed guards are posted at their hotels. One Han Chinese entrepreneur in the city to scout out opportunities said he felt safe "because they are so many police on the streets." Uighurs have long complained about repression under China's rule. In July, marking the third anniversary of the riots in Urumqi, the London-based rights group Amnesty International issued a statement saying that Chinese authorities "continue to silence those speaking out on abuses" in the region. Many Uighurs also say that their traditions and culture are under threat. Nowhere is more apparent than Kashgar's historic old city, which dates back hundreds of years. Built from mud bricks, houses are piled on top of each other along a warren of paved alleyways. For centuries, the city has stood as a symbol of Uighur identity. But now locals say that more than half of it has already been torn down and thousands of families have already left. Many Uighurs fear that a huge part of their culture has been lost forever. The local authorities say that the demolition is necessary because houses may collapse as Xinjiang is an earthquake zone. They are rebuilding chunks of the old city in the traditional style. But that is of little comfort to Tursun Zunun, 53, a pottery maker in the old city. He says that his house is almost 500 years old. "Many of my neighbours have already left," he said, sitting out his balcony, which now has a view of the city's new skyline of modern high rise office and apartment blocks. "By the time my grand-daughter grows up all the old city might be gone." Kashgar is a city that has long mixed traditions with trade. But an old way of life is fast disappearing, creating a fresh source of anger among the Uighur community. The city's economic development may not bring the stability Beijing wants.

Driving small vans and trucks groaning under the weight of animals, Kashgar's farmers gather at the city's weekly livestock market as they have done for centuries.

Summarize the following article: Nelson Oliveira's looping header from Alex Pritchard's set-piece had given Norwich a deserved first-half lead. But Bogle's near-post header from a corner and cleanly struck free-kick put the hosts ahead as they battled back. Mitchell Dijks then nodded level from a Norwich corner and both sides searched for a late winner that would not come. Wigan remain 23rd, five points below 21st-placed Burton with a game in hand, while Norwich stay seventh but move to within two points of sixth-placed Sheffield Wednesday. The Canaries had put the ball in the net on 25 minutes when Russell Martin headed in on the rebound after a Jonny Howson effort bounced off the woodwork, but the linesman's flag was already raised for offside. However, not long after the visitors - bidding for a fourth straight win - did take the lead as Oliveira netted his eighth league goal of the season. After the break, Wigan sprung to life and former Grimsby striker Bogle's quickfire brace on his first start for the Latics turned the game around. But Dijks' header soon had the visitors back on level terms to deny Wigan a seventh league win of the season. The hosts, who had failed to scored in nine of their past 12 home league games, could have won it late on but Norwich keeper John Ruddy saved well from Jake Buxton. Wigan Athletic boss Warren Joyce: "I'm disappointed we did not end up winning the game, because I felt we deserved the three points. "I was happy with the whole team - the effort, the commitment, the work-rate, the desire. "We were good value to have taken the lead, and it's disappointing not to see it through." Norwich City boss Alex Neil: "We were the better side in the first half and we controlled the game - we should have been more than 1-0 up. "The frustration for me is that the goal that Russell Martin scored was onside, having watched it back. "We were frustrated tonight as a group. We feel we should have won it.

Summarize the following article: It was removed by crowbar by the leader of a nearby youth club within hours of being found. Dennis Stinchcombe said he hoped to raise £100,000 for the struggling Broad Plain Boys' Club by auctioning it. But Bristol mayor George Ferguson asked for the work to be put back on the city council-owned wall. It is now expected to go on display in a museum in the city while the ownership is debated. The work, showing a couple embracing while checking their mobile phones, was found on Tuesday - but removed soon after. A smaller copy of the original has been pinned up in its place. Mr Stinchcombe, 58, said: "Now we've ended up with a Banksy on our doorstep. It is a dream come true." "If we hadn't taken it, someone would have ripped it from the wall or vandalised it." But Mr Ferguson said it was "against the spirit of Banksy and street art" to remove it. "He [Mr Stinchcombe] has got a job to do supporting his boys' club, but I don't think it is in the right spirit to remove it, and I would ask that he puts it back. "I think it was an unwise thing to do. "On the face of it that would be theft, so I think he should take a lot of care. "He should be careful and make sure he's on the right side of the law. I'm pretty sure that it belongs to us." The BBC has asked a spokesman for Banksy for a comment but has not yet received a reply. Mr Stinchcombe said the Banksy would be displayed at the Bristol Museum and Art Gallery until the different opinions over its legal ownership could be settled. He previously said he would make contact with Bonhams auction house about selling it. A spokesman for Bonhams said so far it had not been approached by anyone wanting to sell the artwork. He said if the auction house was approached its experts would first validate the item by checking with a company that authenticates Banksy's work. "After this we would make a number of checks as to whether it was on any stolen artworks database and whether the seller is entitled to sell it, as part of our due diligence process. "Until then we could not put any value on it," he added. Mr Stinchcombe said he had received death threats after removing the work. "I had to make a decision as to whether to allow it to stay there and come in today to find it gone or damaged, or take it yesterday and think what can we do with this to make it a bit of a reality and be good for the community," he said. Police officers who visited the boys' club on Wednesday afternoon to view the artwork advised club officials to seek legal advice because there could be issues surrounding the sale of the artwork if they did not own it. Alison Bevan, of the Royal West of England Academy in Bristol, described the piece as "brilliant". "It is great to have Banksy back here," she said. "I think that the fact it was screwed on to a wall makes it extremely portable and would have increased the likelihood of someone taking it. "From my point of view, the fact it has come to an organisation like this, that is supporting the local community, is better than it going straight to some wealthy collector." Another visitor to the site, Paul Messenger, from Bristol, said: "I don't mind at all [that it was removed], I think it was a sensible thing to do. "It can make money for a good cause. I would suggest it was the right thing to do." Youth worker Jordan Powell, from Warmley, Bristol, stayed in the club overnight to help protect the original. "Everyone can still see it here and it is safe," he said. "Everyone has their own opinions, some are probably jealous, but it is going to a great cause. It is going to help the youngsters in Banksy's home town."

A row has broken out over the ownership of a work of art by "guerrilla artist" Banksy after it was taken from a Bristol street.

Summarize the following article: A handful of 27-year-old Dean Shaw's pills inadvertently ended up in a bag containing an iPad that the child was playing with. The youngster discovered the Class A drugs and put a pill in his mouth before spitting it out because "it didn't taste nice." Shaw will be sentenced in March. Dundee Sheriff Court was told the incident could have resulted in "absolutely catastrophic consequences." The court was told the carrier bag had been at Shaw's Arbroath home and was taken away by a woman and put on her kitchen table. Her son went to play with the iPad and put one of the yellow, strawberry-shaped tablets into his mouth and then spat it out. The woman found the pills strewn across the table. Depute fiscal Vicki Bell told the court: "She thought they were sweets and noted there were some left in the shopping bag. "She asked the child about the sweets and he said they were not sweets as he had put one in his mouth and it didn't taste nice so he spat it out." The woman contacted Shaw who told her the tablets were ecstasy. Miss Bell said: "The child was taken to Arbroath minor injuries unit and observed but didn't have any symptoms of ingesting the tablets. Police raided Shaw's home and found £3,691 in cash, cocaine with a street value of up to £9,600 and 28 ecstasy tablets. The prosecutor added: "He told police he didn't know how the tablets got in the bag. "He said the only explanation was that he had a party and when people left someone had put them there because they didn't want to take them in to the street." Shaw, from Arbroath, admitted being concerned in the supply of cocaine and possessing ecstasy on 15 August last year. Defence solicitor John Hall said: "He profoundly and profusely apologises for this. "It is not lost on him that there could have been absolutely catastrophic consequences. "He is fully aware that the likely outcome of this case will be a period of custody." Sheriff Lorna Drummond QC deferred sentence and released Shaw on bail. She said: "These are very serious matters and custody must be at the forefront of the court's mind."

Summarize the following article: The Lib Dem business secretary said the prime minister had been "very unwise" and that such a target was Conservative - not coalition government - policy. He added that Mr Cameron's comments, made in a speech to Tory activists, "risked inflaming extremism". But the prime minister denied this and said his words had been "measured". Labour leader Ed Miliband said ministers had to "get a grip" on immigration and stop fighting amongst themselves. The Conservatives' 2010 election manifesto calls for "steps to take net migration back to the levels of the 1990s - tens of thousands a year, not hundreds of thousands". However, the coalition agreement between the Conservatives and Lib Dems pledges only an "annual limit" on people coming to the UK from outside the European Union for economic reasons, making no reference to specific numbers. But in his speech, which took place in Southampton, Mr Cameron said the government's cap on immigrant numbers would "mean net migration to this country will be in the order of tens of thousands each year, not the hundreds of thousands every year that we have seen over the last decade". Communities had been affected by incomers unable to speak English and unwilling to integrate, he argued, which had "created a kind of discomfort and disjointedness in some neighbourhoods". He added: "This has been the experience for many people in our country - and I believe it is untruthful and unfair not to speak about it and address it." But Mr Cable, who has spoken out on several occasions about the economic dangers of imposing a cap on immigration, criticised the wording of the speech, telling BBC chief political correspondent Laura Kuenssberg: "The reference to the tens of thousands of immigrants rather than hundreds of thousands is not part of the coalition agreement; it is Tory party policy only. "I do understand there is an election coming but talk of mass immigration risks inflaming the extremism to which he and I are both strongly opposed." But the prime minister rejected the criticism, saying policy was "sensible and measured" and that, following discussions between the coalition partners on how to reduce immigration without damaging the economy, the issue had been "settled". "We have a very good and robust policy and this is the policy of the whole government," he said. "This policy is Lib Dem policy. This policy is coalition policy." Mr Cable, however, refused to back down on the issue, when questioned, telling BBC Manchester: "The reference to tens of thousands rather than hundreds of thousands of people is not part of coalition policy." He added: "My references were about the language used and I stand by that, but it's not a criticism of coalition policy." Mr Cable said he had meant to make a "positive contribution to the debate". By Laura KuenssbergChief political correspondent, BBC News channel The strength of Vince Cable's language is really quite unusual, remarkable even. The coalition's policy on immigration was the result of difficult negotiations between the two parties - the Lib Dems wanted a more relaxed approach to limiting numbers coming here, the Conservatives a tougher one. Vince Cable personally fought for and secured certain concessions which he felt were needed to prevent a cap damaging British businesses. After those negotiations, a kind of truce was reached, but Mr Cable clearly thinks David Cameron's comments break that truce. The business secretary's remarks must also be seen in the context of the upcoming local elections and AV referendum. This is the first time that two parties who've had to get used to working together have been pitted against each other. It seems this could be the first proper skirmish. Read Laura's thoughts in full In full: Cameron migration speech Treasury unease on migration cap Aides to deputy prime minister, and Lib Dem leader, Nick Clegg, who unlike Mr Cable saw a copy of the speech before it was released, said he was "proud" of the work both he and Mr Cable had done on the coalition's "sensible" immigration policy. But they added: "Cameron's language isn't what we would have used… but he's a Conservative leader talking to Conservative voters in the run-up to an election." Mr Cable was "entitled to the view" that there had been a truce in the coalition over immigration policy, but that was not Mr Clegg's view, the source said. Before entering power, the Lib Dems were opposed to a fixed limit on immigration and backed an amnesty for some illegal incomers already living in the UK. Labour says the cap, which was introduced recently, will only cover 20% of non-EU migrants and the government is cutting 5,000 staff at the UK Border Agency. Mr Miliband said: "It's hard to have a government policy that is clear and coherent if your business secretary, who's in charge of your student visa policy, is saying one thing and actually going out of his way to attack the prime minister. "The next time he makes a speech why don't they get a grip, have a proper discussion in government, get an agreed policy, because that's the right way to run a government." UK Independence Party leader Nigel Farage said little would change on immigration because of the UK's "open border" with the EU. But former Labour minister Frank Field, co-chairman of the cross-party balanced migration group, said Mr Cameron was on the "right course" in requiring all those wishing to settle in the UK to speak basic English and making it "much tougher" for those working in the UK to eventually gain citizenship. Asked about criticism of the prime minister's approach, he said immigration policy had been out of step with public opinion for many years because it had been determined by a "liberal elite". "They will be angry that that period is now at an end," he told the BBC. Sir Andrew Green, Chairman of pressure group Migration Watch, said: "We should remember that Vince Cable speaks for a tiny minority of the public. "According to our most recent YouGov opinion poll, conducted last November, only 4% of Lib Dem voters agreed that the present level of immigration is best for Britain, 78% wanted 100,000 or less, 19% did not know".

David Cameron has hit back at criticism by cabinet colleague Vince Cable over his promise to cut immigration to "tens of thousands" of people a year.

Summarize the following article: The issue will be debated by rank and file officers at the Scottish Police Federation's annual conference on Tuesday, according to the newspaper. The Sunday Herald claims to uncover what it describes as "potentially lethal flaws" in Holyrood security in the wake of the Westminster attack. It says concerns focus on the car park under the Scottish Parliament, which could be vulnerable to a car bomb, and the personal security of the first minister. The Scottish Sun leads with news that former Girls Aloud pop star Cheryl has given birth to a baby boy. Meanwhile the Scottish Mail on Sunday reports that an air ambulance regularly piloted by Prince William came within half a second of "catastrophic" mid air collision with a drone. He was not in the helicopter at the time. And the Sunday Mail reports that a secret police operation has thwarted at least six new gun attacks in a violent gang war. It follows a series of tit-for-tat shootings across Glasgow.

The Sunday Post reports that calls are being made to routinely arm police officers in Scotland, following the terror attacks in London.

Summarize the following article: Tony Bland, then 18, was left severely brain damaged after the 1989 tragedy and died nearly four years later. Former Ch Supt David Duckenfield faces 95 charges of manslaughter by gross negligence over the other deaths. He cannot be charged over Mr Bland's death as too much time had passed. In a statement, his family said: "Whilst we are hugely disappointed with the exclusion of Tony from the manslaughter charge against [match commander] David Duckenfield by the CPS, our relief for the families of the other 95 men, women and children outweigh our personal frustrations. "Justice has been achieved following the inquests [in April 2016], when the jury returned the verdict of all 96 victims being unlawfully killed at Hillsborough, and nothing will ever change that. "We will continue to support the other families on the journey for accountability." Mr Bland, from Keighley, West Yorkshire was left in a persistent vegetative state after a crush on the Leppings Lane terrace at Sheffield Wednesday's stadium during the FA Cup semi-final between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest on 15 April 1989. He died aged 22 after his life-supporting treatment was removed following a legal battle.

The family of the 96th Hillsborough victim have said they are "hugely disappointed" nobody will be prosecuted over his death - but that "justice has been achieved" following the inquests.

Summarize the following article: Connor Doughton, 16, went berserk after being escorted back to his parents' house in Blackwood, Caerphilly county, by two men who were trying to stop him getting into trouble. Michael Lee Emmett, 29, was stabbed in the liver in the attack in August 2014. Doughton, who knew his victim, admitted murder at Cardiff Crown Court and was handed a life sentence. The court heard that shortly before the attack, an intoxicated Doughton had been trying to fight a bouncer. He had been smoking outside the Stonehouse pub in Cefn Fforest and had also been abusive to a woman in the street. Once home, he went to the kitchen to grab a knife before running back outside and stabbing Mr Emmett and another man, John Williams. Doughton then dropped the knife down a drain before he was stopped by police; he gave officers a false name, denied knowledge of the attack and spat in the face of a policewoman. Mr Emmett, who was expecting his third child, died four weeks later after having to undergo a liver transplant in London. Mr Williams survived but suffered a serious stab wound to his back. Judge Mrs Justice Nicola Davies said an aggravating feature of the offence was that Mr Emmett had been profoundly distressed while clinging to life at a specialist hospital unit in London. As well as leaving behind twin boys, Mrs Justice Davies said Mr Emmett's daughter Lola would never get to know her father, known by the family as "Michaelee", because of Doughton. After detaining the teenager, the judge also lifted reporting restrictions previously banning the press from revealing his identity. She told the teenager: "Nothing they said or did could justify your taking of a knife - still less pursuing them down the road and in turn stabbing each of them. "In taking the life of Michael Emmett you have robbed twin boys aged eight of their father. Lola, his daughter, born when her father was critically ill in King's College Hospital, London, will never know him." The judge said Doughton had shown little remorse. The court heard he had a low IQ and had behavioural difficulties from the age of 11. He was also described as having a "severe conduct disorder" which had been caused by "genetic factors not associated with poor parenting".

A teenager who murdered a father-of-three has been told he will spend at least 15 years behind bars.

Summarize the following article: Loosely translated, the Dracoraptor part means "dragon thief"; hanigani honours Rob and Nick Hanigan - the two fossil-hunting brothers who found it. In a new analysis, scientists say the specimen is possibly the oldest known Jurassic dinosaur from the UK. It also marks a key moment in dinosaur evolution, they tell PLoS One journal. Dr Dave Martill from Portsmouth University and colleagues say some 40% of the animal was preserved, including its skull, claws, teeth and foot bones. Forty percent is a lot in fossil terms and has allowed most of the animal to be reconstructed because of the symmetry that exists in the body. The team says very precise dating was made possible in this case because the remains were sandwiched between well-documented fossils of ammonites (extinct molluscs) and conodonts (a tiny eel-like creature). This age - of 201.3 million years (plus or minus 200,000 years) - puts Dracoraptor hanigani right at the base of the Jurassic Period, just after the Triassic. The boundary marks a mass extinction event when at least half the species on Earth (including conodonts) are thought to have gone extinct - perhaps because of an asteroid strike or massive volcanism, or a combination of both. Whatever the cause, the disruption is recognised to have opened the door to dinosaurs to assume dominance. This makes the Welsh discovery particularly interesting. "It's right at that point in the diversification of dinosaurs where so-called therapod dinosaurs - the meat-eating ones - became what are called neotherapods. It's from this moment onwards that they go on to become all the forms we know, like T. rex, Velociraptor and even birds," explained team-member Steven Vidovic. "The reason we know the age of the dinosaurs - what we call the Mesozoic Era - is because of this Triassic-Jurassic extinction event. "But we actually understand very little about that early phase of the Jurassic. It's not until the Middle Jurassic that we get all the diversity and forms that you know from children's books. "So, everyone's been hunting for these really early Jurassic specimens, going to exotic places in Africa, North and Central America, and then a couple of brothers stumble across something on a beach near Cardiff." Dr Martill added: "We invited Rob and Nick to name this beautiful little dinosaur and they suggested Dracoraptor after 'draco' meaning 'dragon', the national symbol of Wales, and 'raptor' meaning 'thief' or 'plunderer'. "The draco part of the name seemed fitting because the fossils were found in Wales and will be displayed in Wales, reflecting the red dragon of the Welsh flag. Dracoraptor was a meat-eating dinosaur that would have used its small needle-sharp teeth with steak-knife serrations to pinch bits of meat here and there, hence the part of its name meaning thief. "Although the Hanigan brothers chose the generic name, we also wanted to credit them, which is why the full name of the species is in fact Dracoraptor hanigani." A fascinating aspect of this dinosaur is the context of its burial: the animal was encased in marine rocks, meaning its body was somehow transported out to sea before settling into sediments. "Two-hundred-million-years ago, the UK was a series of islands," said Mr Vidovic. "When it sank, it must have sunk pretty quickly because it's so complete. What we do see is that when it got to the bottom, sea urchins crawled all over it, a bit like you get with a whale carcass now. And we've actually got some of those (fossilised) sea urchins. It's they who jumbled the bones up and made them into such a wonderful puzzle." The Hanigan brothers have donated the dinosaur to Amgueddfa Cymru-National Museum of Wales.

Summarize the following article: The 59-year-old was helping wife Jayne onto a horse at their Cisswood Stables in Sussex on Thursday morning when another horse kicked out. Moore, whose sons Ryan, Jamie and Joshua are all jockeys, spent Thursday night in intensive care with fluid on his lungs and damaged ribs. "He's a bit groggy, but nothing worse than that," said Joshua Moore. "I think he's pretty OK. He's out of intensive care. He's having a lot of antibiotics and painkillers, but he doesn't need any operations or anything like that, as far as I know." Among the trainer's charges is Sire De Grugy, who Jamie Moore rode to victory in last year's Queen Mother Champion Chase at the Cheltenham Festival. Ryan Moore, a three-time Flat racing champion jockey, was sidelined for more than a month earlier this year after injuring his neck at Newmarket's July Festival.

Summarize the following article: Up to 300,000 people in the area could not drink tap water for more than three weeks after cryptosporidium was found. The bug was discovered by United Utilities at Franklaw water treatment plant near Preston on 6 August. Temporary ultraviolet light rigs were set up to kill the bug. A permanent one is due to be operational by April 2016. The Drinking Water Inspectorate is continuing an investigation into the cause of the contamination. A United Utilities spokesman said a "brand new ultraviolet rig... is currently being constructed and should be up and running by April 2016. "In the meantime, we will continue to use the temporary UV rigs which were installed at strategic points on the local network back in August." Cryptosporidium, a microscopic bug that can cause diarrhoea and cramps, was found during routine tests by the utility firm and resulted in households being told to boil drinking water. The alert affected residents in Blackpool, Chorley, Fylde, Preston, South Ribble and Wyre. Those who were affected were given up to £60 in compensation.

A permanent ultraviolet light rig is being fitted at a water treatment works in Lancashire after a parasite contaminated supplies.

Summarize the following article: The seafront line opened in 1865 to provide a link from the railway station to the quay and Channel Island ferries. The last regular service ran in 1987 but the line was used for special occasions until 1999. Andy Spreadbury believes re-launching the line would also help with parking problems in the town during the summer. The tracks to the quayside remain in place, making the route still viable, said Mr Spreadbury, who worked on it in the late 1970s. Network Rail said while the main line to Weymouth is electrified, the seaside track is not, which could make a reopening of it problematic. He added: "It's unique, it's the last one of its kind in the country, at this gauge anyway. "It can be a major tourist attraction because it's so unique. "We're not yet looking at costs. We are just putting it out to consultation to see what people in Weymouth think." There have been previous attempts to reopen the line but Weymouth and Portland Council said none had been financially viable. It had voted to acquire the track from Network Rail in a £50,000 deal in 2009 but the sale never went through, a spokesman said. A Network Rail spokesman said: "If the council decided they wanted to do something with it we are happy to do that, whether its keeping it as a railway, cycle track or tramway. "But if the local authority, community or an operator said they wanted to see trains back, we would work with them to achieve that but it would depend on a solid business case." The most recent attempt to reopen the line was made by enthusiasts who wanted it used to bring spectators to the sailing events during the 2012 Olympic Games.

A former Dorset seaside train line worker has launched a campaign to return the service through Weymouth in a bid to boost tourism.

Summarize the following article: The Cottagers replaced Meulensteen as boss with Felix Magath on Friday but the Dutchman had said he remained under contract at the club. The trio, who were only appointed in the past four months, leave along with coaches Mick Priest and Jonathan Hill. As part of the changes, Tomas Oral comes in as first-team coach and Werner Leuthard is the new conditioning coach. Former Bayern Munich coach Magath signed an 18-month contract with the Premier League's bottom side last week. Meulensteen came into the club as head coach in November and replaced Martin Jol as manager less than three weeks later. He brought in Curbishley as first-team technical director on Christmas Day and Wilkins as assistant head coach on 30 December. However former Manchester United coach Meulensteen, who won four of 17 games in charge, was not mentioned in a club statement announcing Magath's arrival. Chairman Shahid Khan told the club website: "I'm very grateful to Rene, Alan and Ray, as well as Mick and Jonathan, for their commitment to Fulham. Their efforts were admirable and appreciated, and I wish them the best. "Felix has come to Fulham with purpose and exceptional confidence, and I know he's extremely pleased to have Tomas Oral and Werner Leuthard join him for the mission ahead. "From today forward, the focus is singularly on winning football matches and remaining in the Premier League. The work has begun."

Fulham have sacked former boss Rene Meulensteen and coaches Ray Wilkins and Alan Curbishley.

Summarize the following article: Conlan will have high hopes of making it three wins from three professional fights in the super-bantamweight fight at the Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane. The Belfast fighter's opponent, a Brisbane native, has won five, drawn three and lost four of his contests. Pacquaio will defend against Jeff Horn in the top of the bill fight on Sunday. Should former world amateur champion Conlan win, his Top Rank USA stable are considering adding the Irishman to the Oscar Valdez undercard in Arizona later this summer. Mexican-born Valdez, who is also signed with Top Rank, successfully defended his WBO featherweight title with a unanimous points victory over Miguel Marriaga in California in April. Conlan stopped Alfredo Chanez in Chicago in his last outing in late May, the referee calling a halt in the third round of the scheduled six. The 25-year-old won a bronze medal at the 2012 Olympics and stopped Tim Ibarra inside three rounds on his professional debut at Madison Square Garden on St Patrick's Day.

Michael Conlan is a strong favourite to see off Australian Jarrett Owen as part of the undercard of Manny Pacquaio's WBO welterweight defence in Queensland.

Summarize the following article: Central Bedfordshire Council said it would serve an enforcement notice on Syed Raza Shah, after a planning inspector rejected his appeal. Mr Shah was given permission to increase his house in Barton-Le-Clay, Bedfordshire, by 45%, but the council said he had increased it by 165%. He will now be told to reduce the house to the size originally permitted. Planning inspector Bridget Campbell said the seven-bedroom building "harms the landscape character of the area". Councillor Nigel Young, executive member for regeneration on the council, said he welcomed the latest decision in the long-running dispute. He said it "reflects the concerns of the council and local residents" and "defends our green belt from inappropriate and unlawful development". The extended house was described as "Hollywood come to Barton" and hard to value by estate agent Ken Ravey from Country Properties in Barton-le-Clay. "I sold the five bedroom house set in four acres next door about five years ago for £1.25m - this house has seven bedrooms and is set in 1.5 acres," he said "If it were down the road in Harpenden, yes it could be worth £5m - but this is Barton-Le Clay." In May 2013, an inspector granted retrospective planning permission for the home, named Random House, but the council challenged the decision. The council argued that Mr Shah's alterations amounted to a "new dwelling" and was "inappropriate development" in an area of outstanding natural beauty. Mr Shah has not yet commented on the planning inspector's decision.

A man who turned a bungalow into a three-storey mansion has been told to reduce it in size, a council has said.

Summarize the following article: The infection has prompted the World Health Organization to declared a global health emergency due to the link to thousands of suspected cases of babies born with small brains - or microcephaly - in Brazil. But there are still many, crucial, unanswered questions. The best estimate of Zika infections is between 500,000 and 1.5 million - which is quite a wide margin of error. What percentage of people in an affected area are getting infected? Is it everyone? We don't know. One theory is that the virus has mutated to become more infectious. Alternatively, some experts argue it could simply be a case of the virus reaching areas where people are densely packed together and there are huge numbers of mosquitoes. Around 80% of people have no symptoms when they get the virus - although this figure needs further investigation. It's not known if they can also spread the virus or even why they are asymptomatic. It's the biggest health concern in the outbreak, yet the link with Zika and birth defects is still only "strongly suspected". Parts of Brazil that have seen cases of Zika have, several months later, also seen a surge in microcephaly. However, the trials to prove the link have not finished. If the virus does cause microcephaly, how often does this happen? Does every infection lead to birth defects? Or is it one-in-100? One-in-10,000 perhaps? At the moment it's not clear how worried pregnant women should be. If the virus causes microcephaly, does it matter when you are infected? There have been some suggestions that the first trimester (the first 12 weeks) is key, but other doctors have hinted there might be risks as late as 29 weeks. And those risks could change over time. Some infections, such as rubella, can damage the brains of developing babies during pregnancy. But it is not known how Zika could be crossing the placenta and damaging brain growth. Around four-in-five people infected will not develop symptoms. Do silent infections carry the same risks of microcephaly as those which result in a fever or a rash? There is also the rare neurological disease Guillain-Barre syndrome that has been linked to Zika infection and we don't know which patients are most a risk. The virus was first detected in Africa and then parts of Asia until it reached Brazil and then spread. So do these continents represent giant vulnerable populations susceptible to Zika outbreaks? Or has Zika been around and undetected there for years, so that most of the population are immune? It is hard to establish the global threat without knowing the answer. There are big questions about the quality of the data, both before the outbreak of Zika and now. The figures for previous years may be underestimates, and the number of suspected cases is an overestimate. Of the 4,783 reported cases of microcephaly - 404 have been confirmed, 709 have been disproved and 3,670 are still being investigated. The Zika virus is spread by the Aedes aegypti mosquito, but it is confined to tropical and sub-tropical countries. There is concern that Zika could be spread by other mosquitoes too such as the Asian tiger mosquito. This species prefers more temperate climes such as parts of Europe. It seems likely that the overwhelming majority of cases are spread by the Aedes mosquito where the insect bites a person with the virus and passes it onto the next person it bites. But sexual transmission has been implicated in a couple of infections. It's unknown how common this is. Are you infected once and then protected for life, like measles? Or does it take multiple infections to achieve immunity? How long does immunity last? These answers will tell us how long the outbreak could last and indicate whether a vaccine would be effective.

Summarize the following article: The Foyle Cup is now in its 25th year and has attracted a record entry of 310 teams. An opening parade weaved its way through the city on Tuesday. Foyle Cup chairman Michael Hutton said it was the biggest tourist event in Derry, He said there were 310 teams, a festival of football for six days and 1,034 games. Earlier this year, fears for the future of the tournament were raised after funding was cut by 50% by Tourism Northern Ireland. The organisers had said that would prevent them attracting the same calibre of teams from abroad as in previous years. They also argued that the event, which started out as an eight-team youth tournament in 1992, is worth almost £2m to the local economy. "It's as big, if not bigger, than the jazz festival, the Halloween festival and indeed the maritime festival in terms of bed nights created. "We have about 5,000 young people marching in a parade for the mayor's welcome at Guildhall Square today. "It's great to see the pro clubs from England and Scotland, it's great to welcome our teams from New York. We have Landsdowne Bhoys here for the first time and Everton America." Mr Hutton also welcomed greater involvement from the ladies teams. "There's definitely been an increase in girls and ladies football. "This year we have 28 teams in all, we're doing all we can to promote the development of girls and ladies football throughout the north of Ireland and Ireland in general and it's great to see." The Foyle Cup tournament will be held at various venues in the north-west until 22 July.

Thousands of young footballers from all over the UK and Ireland are in Londonderry for one of Northern Ireland's biggest tournaments.

Summarize the following article: The continent's skipper Darren Clarke is proving just as meticulous as his predecessor Paul McGinley as he prepares to take on the United States at Hazeltine in Minnesota. McGinley famously invited Sir Alex Ferguson to deliver words of inspiration to his team at Gleneagles two years ago, and Liverpool supporting Clarke can see a role for the man in charge of the team he follows. "Jurgen Klopp is definitely one of the guys I want to speak to, especially as a Liverpool fan myself," Clarke revealed during a dinner with golf journalists in Florida last week. "He's an absolute livewire isn't he? He's a bundle of energy, and that sort of thing can be infectious. He's obviously very passionate and a terrific motivator so I want to pick his brains a bit." Media playback is not supported on this device McGinley's use of Ferguson in Scotland was a masterstroke and his victorious team were thrilled and inspired by hearing from Britain's most successful football manager. "Kenny Dalglish is someone else I'll seek out, and Sir Alex Ferguson was such an inspirational figure at Gleneagles that I'd love to have him on board again," Clarke added. "I'll look into whether he's free that week, and check out the possibility of flying him over with us." Whether Klopp can have a similar effect remains to be seen, but Clarke is seeking the opinions of successful figures from across the sporting world. The skipper wants to harness the extra percentages of preparation to help secure Europe's fourth win in a row. "I'll be talking to a bunch of people over a whole range of sports. Sir Clive Woodward is another guy who would be very interesting on the team dynamic, and the former Ireland and Lions captain Paul O'Connell is another one." Clarke has already taken a line from the Ireland rugby anthem and "shoulder to shoulder" will become Europe's team mantra when they head to Minneapolis in the autumn. Media playback is not supported on this device Expertise of those who have excelled in other sports cannot do any harm but it will be Clarke's own golfing intuition that might make the biggest difference. The 2011 Open Champion is already closely monitoring the performances of all the players in with a chance of qualifying for his 12-man team. Clarke has an app on his phone which provides statistical data on how they are performing. Each component of a player's game is broken down to show how they are performing, particularly in pressure situations. The information is shown in a spider's web style of graph - the wider the web the better the player is performing. Already he has an intimate knowledge of each golfer's game. He showed me the data for one player and commented that it was clear he was being too aggressive on par fives - this explained the dent in an otherwise impressive web. Clarke expects the app will prove invaluable with his wildcard picks and in putting together foursomes and fourball pairings during the match itself. Last week the captain had two sit down meals with all of the likely candidates who were on show at the Players Championship at Sawgrass and he must be relieved Jason Day is not a US player. The data surrounding the Australian could not be more impressive as he stretched his lead at the top of the world rankings with his seventh win since finishing fourth at last year's Open. Day's ruthless Players victory robbed the tournament of its usual final day drama but left no one in any doubt over the identity of the best player in the world at the moment. How Rory McIlroy would love to regain Day's winning touch. There are still too many unforced errors creeping onto the Ulsterman's scorecard. McIlroy is the only member of the world's top five not to have won this year, despite five top six finishes. There is nothing wrong with his ball striking but he acknowledges that he is making too many mental errors. "It's just knowing when to play the right shot at the right time," he commented after finishing tied for 12th at Sawgrass. McIlroy's charitable foundation hosts this week's Irish Open at the K Club and he will be desperate to make up for last year's missed cut in the same event. "The last golf tournament I won was in Dubai in November, so it feels like a long time ago now," he acknowledged. "But again, I need to stay patient because if I keep pushing and keep looking for the win, that's when these sloppy mistakes start to creep in. "I just need to go out there and play my game and trust that I'm playing well enough for the chips to fall my way sooner rather than later." As an individual McIlroy doesn't need a statistical app or a football manager to tell him where he is going wrong. Within the team dynamic it might be a different story.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is the latest football manager being considered to help Europe's defence of the Ryder Cup this September.

Summarize the following article: The British Medical Association believes it is a great way to prevent injuries and save lives. But opponents say such a move could be detrimental to the nation's health, arguing it will put people off using their bike and getting much-needed exercise. So who is right when you look at the available evidence? The most obvious reason to wear a helmet is that doing so protects you in the event of an accident. But by how much? Back in 2001, Australian experts set out to determine just this by trawling medical literature published in the past decade. Their analysis found that wearing a helmet cut the risk of head injury and brain injury by half, and facial injury by nearly a third. For some, this may seem like a good reason to wear a cycle helmet all the time. Many, however, use a selective approach based on their own estimation of risks. Take one cyclist, for example: "I'll wear a helmet if I'm cycling in heavy traffic or plan to go fast, otherwise I won't bother." UK researchers for the Department of Transport found many cyclists appear to use this approach. Their surveys show that helmet-wearing rates are typically higher on major roads than on minor roads, and are used more often during peak commuting hours. But are people making accurate risk assessments? Evidence from workshops would suggest not, as many cyclists who say they rely on their own judgement, when quizzed, have uncertainties and doubts about when, and whether, helmets actually would afford protection. In particular, a number who said they only wore helmets when riding fast or in traffic doubted if helmets would provide them any protection in the sort of high-speed or heavy-traffic situations that were prompting their use. Similarly, some agreed that a cycle helmet would only be useful for the kind of minor fall that could occur during the rides for which they never usually chose to wear a helmet for. The findings suggest that, for some, wearing a helmet is less about calculating risk, and more about having a way of feeling safer in situations that feel risky - whether or not it actually would make them safer. Others appear to be ditching their headgear for fashion's sake. The same workshop with 62 cyclists found many were concerned that wearing a helmet made them look stupid and messed up their hair. Some even admitted that their non-wearing was partly a rebellion against their parents' previous instance when they were a child that they had to wear one. Currently, a third of adult cyclists opt to wear a helmet. This is an increase compared with the rate nearly two decades ago when only 16% of adults wore one. But do we know whether, if helmets were made compulsory, it would put many of the non-wearing cyclists off riding their bikes altogether? Research from Canada suggests not. This study looked at cycling behaviour across Canadian provinces before and after different policies about cycle helmet use were introduced. Legislation did not appear to affect cycling frequency. Yet Australian research suggests it might. Cycling is an activity that has been on the decline over the last half century as more and more people opt to use a car instead. Indeed, in response, England's government in 1996 set targets to quadruple the number of journeys made by bicycle by 2012. But one of the barriers to taking up cycling is a perception of the physical danger posed by motor traffic. However, experts say the health benefits of cycling far outweigh the risks by a factor of around twenty to one. Perhaps making cycle helmets compulsory will make people feel safer about taking up cycling? Either that or ministers will have shot themselves in the foot by turning people off the very sport they want us to do more of. Only time will tell.

Doctors are applauding members of the Northern Ireland assembly for voting in favour of a bill to make the wearing of cycle helmets compulsory.

Summarize the following article: The Queen sent her "sincere condolences" to victims' families, saying she was "shocked" at the attack. Meanwhile, relatives of those who are injured or still missing anxiously await news of their loved ones. A total of 38 people were killed when a man with links to the Islamic State group opened fire near Sousse. Tunisian officials have said they are certain 23-year-old Seifeddine Rezgui had help in carrying out the attack. The identification of British victims is taking time because of stringent Tunisian regulations, the BBC has been told. A senior government source said the coroner in Sousse requires medical or dental records in order to complete the formal identification process. Home Secretary Theresa May suggested officials were having difficulty identifying the British victims as many were not carrying identification and because the injured were being moved between hospitals. She said "every effort" was being made to ensure families were getting information that was "100% correct". Scotland Yard said its investigation into the attack was "likely to be one of the largest counter-terrorism deployments" since the aftermath of the 7/7 bombings in London in 2005, which left 52 dead. The Met said the operation currently involved more than 600 officers and staff, with many sent to British airports to speak to hundreds of returning holidaymakers. It has also deployed 16 officers to Tunisia, including forensic specialists and family liaison officers. The Foreign Office has updated its travel advice to warn that further terrorist attacks in Tunisia are possible, and urged people to be vigilant. The Tunisian government has brought in increased security measures, with army reservists to be deployed to tourist sites. Interior ministry spokesman Mohamed Ali Aroui said investigators were "sure" Rezgui had accomplices. They believe the suspected accomplices provided the Kalashnikov assault rifle to Rezgui and helped him get to the scene, Mr Ali Aroui told AP. He said the attacker's father and three friends he lived with in Kairouan, where he studied, had been detained for questioning. The British victims have not been officially identified but the names of some have been confirmed by friends and family: Three Irish people were also killed in the attack. One Belgian and one German have been identified among the dead, the Tunisian health ministry has said, while Tunisians are also thought to have been killed. At least 36 people were injured, some seriously. Buckingham Palace earlier released a statement from the Queen saying: "Prince Philip and I were shocked to learn of the attack on British tourists in Tunisia on Friday. "We send our sincere condolences to the families of those who were killed and our deepest sympathy to the people who are still fighting for their lives in hospital, and those who have been seriously injured. "Our thoughts and prayers are with those of all countries who have been affected by this terrible event." We are seeking your stories relating to the Tunisia attacks. If you or anyone you know has been affected please contact us in the following ways. Please include a contact number if you are willing to speak to a BBC journalist. Holiday firms have put on extra flights on top of scheduled services for people wanting to return home. Flights to the country have also been cancelled. Thomson and First Choice arranged 12 flights out of Tunisia on Sunday, while Jet2holidays and Jet2.com said they deployed three 235-seat aircraft to Tunisia on Saturday. Tour operator Thomas Cook laid on two extra flights on Saturday and one on Sunday.

The death toll of Britons killed in the Tunisian gun attack will double to at least 30 once identification of victims is complete, the BBC understands.
