By . Chris Pleasance . PUBLISHED: . 05:42 EST, 23 February 2014 . | . UPDATED: . 09:20 EST, 23 February 2014 . Jackiey Budden, 56, mother of Big Brother star Jade Goody, has caused a sex abuse trail to be restarted after complaining about a fellow juror who was chewing gum and taking her shoes off during evidence . Jade Goody's mother has been removed from jury duty after complaining about a fellow juror. Jackiey Budden, 56, wrote a letter to the judge at Blackfriars Crown Court after becoming annoyed by a young woman chewing gum, flicking her hair, and taking her shoes off during the trial. However after the note was passed on the judge dismissed the jury, causing the sex assault trail they were sitting on to be restarted. The other jurors were all reselected to sit on other cases, with the exception of Ms Budden. Speaking to the Sunday Mirror, she said: 'Before we went into court we were told if we felt uncomfortable about anything we had to write a letter to the judge. 'Being on a jury was something I treated seriously. I was listening to everything and making notes. But I was sitting next to this woman who wasn't showing any interest. 'She kept kicking off her shoes, huffing and puffing, tossing her head and chewing gum.' Before the second day of the trial Ms Budden passed the note of complaint to the judge. After dismissing the jury, Ms Budden said she was given the option of sitting on another jury or going home. She arrived court the following day on January 28 expecting to be selected, but again wasn't called. Ms Budden caused controversy in 2010 when she was discovered selling teddy bears that had been left on her daughter's grave for 50p each . Ms Budden, from Bermondsey, added that she didn't think she would be eligible for jury duty because she has previous convictions, and the serving on a jury had made her feel proud. She says she has no idea what she did wrong, or why she wasn't reselected. The Ministry of Justice confirmed that Jackiey had been removed from duty. The judge at Blackfriars Crown Court dismissed the jury after he was passed a note by Ms Budden . It is not the first time the mother of Big Brother contestant Jade, who died in 2009 from cervical cancer, has courted controversy. In 2010 Jackiey was discovered selling teddy bears placed on her daughter's grave for 50p, and was alleged to have sold soft toys belonging to Jade's children as well as Jade's possessions. Sorry we are unable to accept comments for legal reasons.

By . Rob Preece . PUBLISHED: . 03:32 EST, 18 September 2012 . | . UPDATED: . 04:10 EST, 18 September 2012 . With 1,600 stores across the UK, its name has become a familiar sight on almost every High Street. But bakery chain Greggs is poised to expand even further afield - by supplying sausage rolls to British soldiers serving abroad. The company is to start sending frozen savoury items to a British military base in Guterslöh, Germany, in a trial designed to give troops a 'taste of home'. Home comforts: British troops dine at a Naafi outlet at Camp Bastion in Afghanistan. Sausage rolls made by bakery chain Greggs may soon be on the menu . If successful, the concept could be rolled out to serve more than 32,000 British soldiers across the globe. Under the deal with Armed Forces caterer Naafi, Greggs will supply a range of seven frozen savoury items - including sausage rolls, steak bakes, chilli bakes and sausage and bean melts - to Guterslöh for 12 weeks. The products will be baked throughout the day by Greggs-trained Naafi personnel and displayed on a Greggs-branded counter. They will cost as much as they do in Britain. Naafi's chief executive, Reg Curtis, said the deal was 'not about nutrition'. Coming soon: Frozen sausage rolls will be sent to a British military base in Germany to give soldiers a 'taste of home' 'A soldier can eat three healthy three-course meals a day for less than €5 (£4) in the army,' he told the Times. 'This is about giving the common soldier a taste of home.' The Guterslöh Naafi, which caters for 2,300 servicemen, was chosen for the trial because it serves 'a large number of single men', whom Mr Curtis believes will prefer the savoury goods to German foods. Greggs claimed that its products had come top in a survey which asked armed forces personnel what items they most missed from home. The Newcastle-based company's chief executive, Ken McKeikan, a Royal Navy veteran of the Falklands War, said he hoped the trial would pave the way to a global Naafi deal. Naafi outlets serve 32,500 troops across Afghanistan, Brunei, Germany, Gibraltar and the Falklands. Expansion: Bakery chain Greggs has 1,600 stores across the UK and hopes to begin serving food to 32,500 British troops worldwide . Manned by civilians, many of whom are dependants of service personnel, they offer home comforts such as British bread, British milk, British fish & chips, and British beer. Mr McKeikan said: 'It's great to hear that Greggs was the most requested brand that troops missed from home and we are really pleased to be making our savouries accessible to our troops in Germany, and, depending on the success of the trial, more widely available for our armed forces personnel around the world.' The trial is another triumph for Greggs, coming less than four months after it claimed victory in a battle with the Treasury over Chancellor George Osborne's planned 'pasty tax'. Mr Osborne announced in March that hot snacks would be subject to 20 per cent VAT, but the decision was overturned in May after a much-publicised campaign led by the bakery chain. Favourite staple: Greggs claimed that its pasties and other products had come top in a survey which asked armed forces personnel what items they most missed from home .

Spiked with lashings of spice for Scoville-shattering levels of searing heat, this is the pizza that chefs claim is the hottest in the world. And after a notably dismal attempt at eating it, FEMAIL can confirm that tongue-tingling dish deserves the title. Made with N'duja spicy sausage, chilli flakes and jalapeno powder, the eye-watering pie is the brainchild of executive chef Michael Lecouteur of Mayfair Pizza Co. The Hottest Pizza has three of the hottest chillies in the world – Reapers, Scorpions and Scotch Bonnets – in its sauce . The Hottest Pizza, to give it its official name, also contains three of the hottest chillies in the world – Reapers, Scorpions and Scotch Bonnets – in its sauce. While the N'duja sausage and pork rib are not searingly spicy themselves, the base of the pizza packs a real punch. Cult street food favourites, The Ribman's For The Love of God and Christ On a Bike hot sauces, raise the heat levels from a gentle tingle to a full-on burn. The punchy pizza also comes adorned with an array of fiery toppings including chilli flakes, smoked jalapeno powder and sliced raw chilli. The £14 pizza is the creation of executive chef Micheal Lecouteur of Mayfair Pizza Co. (pictured) The FEMAIL team could only manage two slices before our eyes began watering and we started to need the accompanying side order of creamy burrata to ease the burn. Ingredients: 70g tomato sauce; 22g The Ribman For The Love of God Chilli Sauce; 35grams pork rib; 22g N'duja spicy sausage; pinch of chilli flakes; 45g Scotch Bonnets; 60g Burrata; Smoked Jalapeno Powder; 20g Christ on A Bike sauce . Method: Tomato and chilli sauce is spread across the pizza base . Topped with pork rib, N'duja spicy sausage, a pinch of chilli flakes, scotch bonnets, smoked jalapeno powder and mozzarella. Cooked in the pizza oven at 500oC for three mins. Once removed it is finished with a Christ on a Bike Sauce, burrata and rocket. 'I used to live on Brick Lane so naturally developed a taste for all things spicy,' explains Lecouteur. 'It was here I bought a lot of sauces from The Rib Man to use and experiment with at home. 'This led me to coming up with the Hottest Pizza for Mayfair Pizza Co. by combining two of The Rib Man's hottest sauces with our rustic, freshly-made Italian pizzas. 'Loaded with three of the world's hottest chillies — reaper, scorpion and scotch bonnets — it packs a fiery punch while still being enjoyable. Try it if you dare.' The Hottest Pizza, which costs £14, is available until the end of August at Mayfair Pizza Co. The modern Italian restaurant is famous for its sweet pizzas based on traditional desserts, among them Wild Strawberry, Limoncello and Lime, and Banana Tiramisu and Nutella Calzone . The Hellfire Burger contains six types of chilli and is set alight before being served to diners at Xtreme Smokehouse and Grill in Washington, Iowa . A brave punter downs protective gloves and eyewear before attempting the spicy meal (left). The burger is smothered in spicy condiment Hellfire Sauce (right) The news of the world's hottest pizza comes shortly after another London restauranteur attempted to create the world's hottest burger. Made from a slab of beef infused with ghost and cayenne peppers and pure chili extract, the burger is smothered with Hellfire Sauce before being served with habaneros and jalapenos relish. The sizzling Hellfire Burger is the creation of Loren Gingrich, owner of Xtreme Smokehouse and Grill in Washington, Iowa. It's so hot that Mr Gingrich has asked the Guinness Book of Records to create a new category for it. Reportedly clocking in around 1,000,000 Scoville units (about half the burn of pepper spray), customers have to be over 18 to order the meal. The burger arrives at the table with protective gloves, eyeswear and a waiver, which mentions the possibility of loss of life.

By . Annabel Fenwick Elliott . Sutton Foster, the two-time Tony-winning darling of New York's Broadway, has revealed what it's like to completely shed her make-up for her latest starring role. The 39-year-old Michigan-native, who plays the title character in Broadway's new production of Violet, spoke to ELLE.com about her passion for exposing issues related to 'vanity' and 'insecurity'. 'I am wearing nothing onstage. It’s a little scary, but it’s also kind of cool and exposing,' she admits. Natural beauty: Sutton Foster, 39, opens up about hitting the stage make-up free for her new role in Broadway's production of Violet, claiming it's 'scary' but also 'kind of cool' The musical production, which has been met with early critical acclaim, is set in 1964's rural American South and follows Violet; a character with a facial deformity who is on a journey to love herself 'scars and all', says Ms Foster. She explains that she took on the 'challenging' role because she instantly connected with it, a far cry from the usual 'glamorous or over-the-top' parts she is used to playing. The natural beauty, who has been described as 'the Jennifer Garner of Broadway,' also spoke about her new TV show, Younger, in which she plays an 'older' single mom who is struggling to find employment, and so pretends to be 26 and subsequently lands a job. Voila! The Broadway veteran, who will also star in Sex and the City creator Darren Star's new TV series, Younger, says she has a passion for exposing issues related to 'vanity' and 'insecurity' Ms Foster, recently engaged to screenwriter Ted Griffin and without children in real life, says she is over the moon to be working with legendary Sex and the City wardrobe consultant Patricia Field, whom she admits she is 'obsessed with'. She describes how the 'Ah-mazing' Ms Field came up with a wardrobe for her character that was so 'crazy-awesome and ridiculous', it lead her to question whether 26-year-olds really wore these clothes. Speaking of growing old gracefully, Ms Foster says: 'The thing is, I mean, I’ve been working for so long, everyone knows how old I am. And I’m not interested in hiding it, you know?' Before and after: Ms Foster, pictured at the Roundabout Theatre's Spring Gala in March (left) and bare-faced in her starring role for the company's production of Violet (right) But she later jokes: 'I just have to keep getting facials… and slowly I can sneak in lots of Botox! Do you think they’ll notice on camera if I just can’t move my face anymore?' The Broadway veteran gushed about co-star Hilary Duff, labeling the ex-Disney starlet as 'the most mature' 26-year-old she had ever met, and recalling the time during filming when her dog died, and Ms Duff presented her with an iPhone case covered in photos of the passed-pooch. As for her off-camera, off-stage beauty regime, Ms Foster says it's decidedly scant. Glamorous lead: Ms Foster, who plays an 'older' single mom in Younger, jokes about sneaking in 'lots of Botox' to regain her youthful appearance . 'I’m lucky if I run a hairbrush through my hair.

BOGOTA, Colombia (CNN) -- "Easy money, fast and effective." Investors protest outside the headquarters of DMG, one of many companies accused of defrauding the public. That was the name of one of the businesses in which millions of Colombians deposited their life savings after being promised short-term returns of as much as 150 percent. But government officials say the businesses were pyramid schemes that raked in at least $200 million from 3 million people. The government has said it knows who most of those responsible are, but they have escaped. The government is tracking them down. Sergio Munoz is among those who lost their savings. "That was for my children," he said. "Now, it comes to light that they have robbed us. It was with complicity of the authorities who permit this -- knowing that it is illegal for it to be permitted." The government says the businesses defrauded the public by offering false promises of a sure investment. Wilson Rodriguez handed over the equivalent of $80,000 to a money man who offered him what he thought were assets in hotels and property in exchange. Now, he doesn't know whom to approach. "I don't even have enough to care for my family," he said. "I lent money and what I make from my salary goes to pay off debts. I have nothing. I lost everything." Infuriated investors have demonstrated outside the headquarters of several companies in question across the nation. Worried that the situation has already led to physical altercations and riots, President Alvaro Uribe asked that authorities act immediately to bring those responsible to justice. "We are asking the public prosecutor to speed up the resolution of the cases," he said. "The national police has handed to the prosecution the power to intervene in pyramids." Treasury Minister Oscar Ivan Zuluaga said the government is not to blame. "The government had advertised all this time about the illegality of this operation, warning Colombians not to let themselves be defrauded, not to take their money to these illegal activities," he said. Meanwhile, some observers complain that, though the investors may shoulder some blame, the government could have mitigated their losses by moving more quickly. And, they note, some of the alleged pyramid schemes continue to stay in business.

An archeological treasure trove unearthed by a team from the Open University could transform our understanding of Stonehenge. The most significant artifacts uncovered . are two carved ducks, the first of their kind to be found in Britain . and the oldest figurines ever hewn from the UK. The ducks were likely, say the team, to be a . result of the Bronze Age tradition of carving animal figurines which . were then thrown into water as offerings. Quacking find: These two stone carvings in the shape of ducks, dated to around 700BC, were discovered near Stonehenge and are thought to be the oldest ever unearthed in Britain . Amazing find: A trove of artifacts unearthed near Stonehenge suggests there were humans at the site for 3,000 years before the monument was built . But while the ducks date back to 700BC, a ceremonial dagger was also found which originated around 1400BC. However, another item which Jacques . initially believed was a cow's tooth was revealed by radiocarbon dating . to date back to around 6250BC, some 3,000 years before work began on . Stonehenge. It was part of a . tranche of more than 200 animal bones that were buried alongside . evidence of a large fire, suggesting a Mesolithic feast for up to 100 . people. The bones transpired not to be from cows but instead from aurochs, a now extinct animal about the size of a buffalo. 'It's probably one the earliest recorded hot meals in Briton too, with these people likely cooking this huge creature,' Open University tutor David Jacques, who led the field work, told Mail Online. The Mesolithic era is essentially the mid-period of the stone age. It is sandwiched between the other two 'lithics' - Paleolithic (Old Stone Age) and the Neolithic (New Stone Age). In Europe, the Mesolithic period covered the period from around 9660BC to 5000BC. However, given that civilisation developed at different paces on different continents, it took place in Japan between 14,000BC-400BC and in Western Asia between 20,000BC and 9500BC. It is also sometimes referred to as the Epipaleolithic era. Further excavations revealed a hoarde of more than 5,500 worked flints and tools. Given . that only a few Mesolithic items had ever previously been found around . Stonehenge, the discovery is strong evidence of the continuity of human . life at the site. That means Stonehenge could have been . a site of great significance to humans for several thousand years . before the monument was built. Mr Jacques, . who runs a course on Roman History, used his OU students to excavate a site . north east of the Iron Age hill fort known as Vespasian's Camp. Digging down into the bed of a former . spring revealed a trove of artifacts, though the team did not . immediately recognise the significance of their find. Mystical spot: Stonehenge remains a spiritual site attended by pagans for ceremonies such as the solstice in summer and winter, and appears to have been that way for since 6250BC . Two examples of the flint tools uncovered at the site near Stonehenge . Last year the team dug a trench in the . south east corner of the spring and discovered a . late Roman layer, an Iron Age layer and an early Bronze Age layer before uncovering the flint tools. Initially the team believed it was a mixed cache of . early prehistoric tools, contemporary with . Stonehenge. But once the lab work was underway and experts at Cambridge, where Mr Jacques is studying for a PHD, suggested the finds were all Mesolithic, the team realised the magnitude of their find. 'It's not a surprise because we new . there was a Mesolithic monument there somewhere, because of the (totem) posts . that were found during the excavation of the car park some years ago,' said Mr Jacques. 'The massive missing link . between those two things has been that there is no evidence of people using them until now. Excavations: Open University tutor David Jacques, who led the expedition, with part of the pelvis of an auroch and, right, one of the early trenches dug on the site . 'But what is surprising is that a little team like us with a very low budget have discovered it.' The find is now the property of the landowners Sir Edward and Lady Antrobus, who gave Mr Jacques permission to carry out the excavation. However, there are plans for a new museum to be built in the local town of Amesbury, largely on the back of this discovery, and the artifacts could be housed at that museum, when it is completed. In keeping with the Open University tradition, Mr Jacques is keen to have the local community involved, and that approach is ultimately what yielded the historic find. Before commencing the work he consulted the custodian of the site for 33 years, Mike Clarke, and asked where he thought merited exploration. Mr Clarke suggested three sites, of which the spring was most likely to bear archaeological fruit in Mr Jacques' opinion. 'Mike is someone who, if you ask for his advice, he will be very generous, but I don't think anyone else had ever asked his opinion before,' said Mr Jacques.

Sacked Manchester United manager David Moyes is to be questioned by police over claims he attacked another drinker outside an upmarket wine bar. Moyes, 51, allegedly erupted in a rage after he was subjected to a torrent of abuse as he arrived with friends. One drinker is said to have goaded him about his recent sacking by Manchester United. Witnesses say Moyes suddenly turned round and lunged at Joshua Gillibrand, 23, hitting him on the side of the head. There was a brief scuffle near the bar entrance, the pair were separated and Moyes was restrained by his friends who dragged him away until he had calmed down, they claimed. Investigation: Former Manchester United manager David Moyes is being probed by Lancashire police over an allegation of assault made by Joshua Gillibrand, a 23-year-old joiner . Sacked: Moyes lasted less than a year at Old Trafford after succeeding Sir Alex Ferguson . Mr Gillibrand, a joiner, told The Sun: 'He grabbed me around the neck and struck me on the back of the head. I ended up face down on the floor. 'I felt I was going to die. There were tables flying everywhere and glass all over the place.' Mr Gillibrand suffered a lump on the side of his head and a bruised shoulder and went to hospital. On Thursday night police confirmed they had launched an investigation into the fracas and sources said they were set to speak to the former Premier League manager. The incident happened at around 10pm on Wednesday after Moyes and friends – including Derek Shaw, former chairman at Preston North End, one of Moyes’ previous clubs – had dined at Piccolino’s in Clitheroe, Lancashire, before going to the nearby Emporium wine bar. A group standing outside the bar began making abusive remarks when they saw Moyes, who was humiliatingly sacked as United manager last month after less than a year in charge and is understood to have left with a £4.5million pay off. A witness said: ‘Moyes started to head in with his mates but he was being barracked by drinkers outside. He was getting a bit of lip from a couple of blokes and then one guy, who was a bit drunk, said something about him being s*** and having never won anything. ‘Moyes kept his head down and carried on walking towards the door with his friends and everyone thought he was just ignoring the banter. But then stopped, turned on his heels and quickly marched back.’ Wine Bar: The alleged incident is said to have taken place at the Emporium in Clitheroe, Lancashire . Reveller: Mr Gillibrand claims he was attacked at just after 10pm last night after an incident outside the bar. He did not require hospital treatment . The man, who witnessed the end of the incident said: ‘Moyes had completely lost it and was bright purple in the face and quite clearly out of control. ‘No one could quite believe what had happened. We were stunned. He’s obviously had enough of all the abuse he’s been getting after his miserable season.’ Out and about: David Moyes with wife Pamela in December . Another witness, a 22-year-old man, said: ‘Josh was giving him banter, I think it might have been a chant about him leaving Manchester United, nothing very offensive, and initially Moyes just walked past him into the bar. ‘But moments later Moyes came back outside, squared up to Josh.’ The witness, an acquaintance of Mr Gillibrand, added: ‘Josh is a well-built lad but he’s not particularly mouthy, and he’s not really a football fan at all. I think he was too stunned at what had happened to react. ‘Afterwards Josh was really angry about it, he was saying he wanted to take it further.‘He was saying, “Whoa, I was only joking”. It’s amazing to think that someone who a few weeks ago was managing one of the world’s top football clubs was scuffling outside a bar on a Wednesday night in Clitheroe.’ Another friend of Mr Gillibrand said: ‘He was quite drunk and went up and said something to him like, “What are you doing around here?” ‘It didn’t go down at all well with Moyes who started swearing at him, so Josh said something like, “Well get out of town then”, and turned his back on him, which is when Moyes hit him in the back of the head.’ A police car was flagged down and officers dealt with the incident. Moyes was taken aside by the officers and spoken to. Mr Gillibrand’s mother Susan, 53, said her son had been shocked and had suffered a couple of bumps and bruises. She said: ‘Josh does not even like football.’ Last night Moyes, who lives near Preston, declined to comment over the incident. A spokesman for Lancashire Police said: ‘Officers attended the bar at about 10pm on Wednesday, May 21, and it was reported that a 23-year-old local man had been assaulted by a 51-year-old man. ‘Inquiries are ongoing and we are speaking to a number of people to try to establish the circumstances. No one has been arrested at this stage.’ Sacking: Mr Moyes was hand picked by Sir Alex Ferguson to succeed him as boss but lost his job at Old Trafford after nine months .

From battling for naval supremacy, to liberating Boston and New York, Assassin's Creed 3 is by far the most ambitious game of the series. Indeed, there is so much to do in the vast, open-world playground in Ubisoft’s latest Assassin’s outing that it’s easy to get side-tracked from the ever-changing, and sometimes complex, narrative. Hiding in the shadows: But there is more emphasis on action in AC3 . Thankfully, AC3’s story is wonderful, putting you in the middle of some of the most important events of the American Revolution. The opening hour, in particular, is one of the strongest beginnings of recent times – where cutting-edge graphics and strong voice acting merge to create a living, breathing world. For most of the game, you play native American assassin, Connor. It’s impossible to reveal the story without giving away the plot, however, there are plenty of twists and unexpected surprises. Gameplay is a familiar recipe, involving gathering information, stalking and killing high-profile targets. This is made all the more fun by the drastically improved free-running and combat. From scaling houses to climbing snow-covered trees, it’s never been easier to pull-off daring acrobatic feats. The Animus, too, is clearer, showing when Connor is hidden from sight or if objects can be interacted with. Combat revolves around a simple parry and counter system, but as seen in the recent Batman games, it’s a brilliant mechanic if executed well. Box of tricks: There are plenty of weapons for Connor to experiment with . Although not as interactive as many would hope (a button press will trigger a pre-set animated counter) it’s visually very rewarding to take down a group of guards during a mass brawl. At its heart, though, this is a stealth game, and most of the time, AC3 encourages you to remain incognito for as long as possible. There are plenty of stealth kills that can be performed from the shadows, and bodies can be hidden to avoid detection. There are also fantastic naval missions which, coupled with the well-rendered water and authentic ship dynamics, are incredibly entertaining and exciting to play. They help to emphasise the scale of the conflict, while providing a welcome break from the more familiar gameplay. Indeed, it is times like this – where the game keeps nothing hidden away – where AC3 is at its best. It is when you’re allowed to explore the world and feature in iconic, large-scale battles that you appreciate how carefully Ubisoft have recreated the period. Unfortunately, there are some areas where AC3 comes up short. Technically, although artistically strong and well thought-out, the game is a victim of its own scale. Stalk of the town: It pays to be incognito most of the time . Pop up, bland textures and frame-rate drops constantly interfere with the Anvil Next engine, while the long loading times can wrench you away from the otherwise immersive experience. But look beyond the glitches and it’s clear AC3 is a beautiful game, one that has perhaps reached the frontiers of what the straining current-gen consoles can achieve. Interestingly, the single-player mechanics transfer to the multiplayer very well. The Wolf Pack mode is good fun, allowing you to work with a friend to take down NPC targets in a score attack. While Assassinate seamlessly blends guile and violence, and sees you kill other human players whist trying to stay hidden for as long as possible. However impressive, though, it is the single-player campaign which is the star here. A story that is every bit as beautiful as it is deadly, and one that like its leading man, deserves to carve its place in history.

Beautiful, epic world teeming with interesting and well thought-out characters . Combat and free-running has never been better . Anvil Next engine mostly delivers, but some graphical glitches can take away from the experience .

SAVANNAH, Georgia (CNN) -- Walt Peters knows what it's like to fear for his life. He knows how it feels to board a plane, deploying for combat. He knows the feeling of making it home alive. Walt Peters is often among the last people soldiers see as they deploy and the first they see upon their return. That's why the retired Vietnam veteran has stood outside at Hunter Army Airfield in Savannah, Georgia, for the past four years as a beacon of pride and support, welcoming home returning soldiers and wishing "Godspeed" to those deploying. "To me, if it wasn't for our soldiers and our veterans, we would not have this beautiful country," says Peters. "These guys are our freedom." Peters, 64, has been one of the last people that about 20,000 soldiers so far have seen before boarding the plane for the war zone -- and one of the first seen upon return. No matter what time the soldiers' flights are arriving or departing -- many take place in the middle of the night -- Peters is there to shake their hands and give them a token of support: a small American flag. Some of those flags, Peters says, have gone to Iraq and back. "When they touch that flag, we're giving them a piece of our country, saying, 'Thank you.'" Peters is not the only volunteer showing his support at each flight. But he does all of this nearly blind. He says learned he had chemical diabetes nearly 10 years ago after he was exposed to Agent Orange during his Vietnam tours. He has lost almost all of his sight over the past few years, but that hasn't depleted his dedication to the soldiers. "When I went to Vietnam on my tours I'd never had this. I had never had nobody say, 'We appreciate your service. We thank you for what you're doing for our freedom,'" Peters says. "When they get on that plane, they're gonna know that this old Vietnam vet cares." Peters first became involved greeting flights through the Savannah Red Cross in 2004 when a friend from his fraternal Moose Lodge brought him to welcome a returning flight. Peters has since become a flight greeting leader, bringing in and training his own volunteers. His crew includes Moose members and Vietnam veterans. So many flights come in, Peters says, that it's impossible to be present for all of them. He's worked as many as three flights in one day, in a 26-hour period. Watch how Peters sends off and greets deploying and returning U.S. soldiers » . Peters and his volunteers arrive two hours before a flight's arrival or departure to set up their tables and brew coffee. He makes sure he walks around and talks with the troops when they come through for processing. "I'm a combat veteran; the soldiers know I can relate to them," Peters says. "I tell them, 'It's OK to be scared. You stay scared, you stay alive.'" Peters also talks to the soldiers about the Adopt-A-Soldier program, asking them to fill out a card so a family can "adopt" them and send care packages and necessities to them in Iraq or Afghanistan. Watch Peters and volunteers interacting with U.S. soldiers before their deployment to Iraq » . Peters says the most important thing is to show the soldiers "the support and the spirit that they need behind them as they step up to get on that plane." "Sometimes it breaks your heart because you ask yourself, 'Which one of these beautiful people is not coming home?'" But as long as there are soldiers deploying and returning, Peters says he'll be there. Watch Peters talk about one of the highlights of his military career » . "I see the roots of our country and our future in every one of these soldiers," he says.

Prestigious hotel Gleneagles is selling off an acre of land on a neighbouring street for £1million – with a golf course membership thrown in. Located just yards from the 2014 Ryder Cup PGA Centenary Course and with planning permission for a 'substantial' six-bedroom house, it could be a golfer's dream home. The price of the land on one of Scotland's most expensive streets has been slashed from £1.55million to £1million, despite a similar neighbouring plot selling for £1.7million. But the lucky purchaser will still have to dig deeply to build the six-bedroom home in Auchterarder, Perthshire, as it has permission for a four-car garage, pool, gym and sauna. The one-acre plot located yards from one of the golf courses at Gleneagles is on the market for £1million . The buyers will also get two years' free golf club membership and access to all the luxury facilities. While the plot is already hooked up to mains water and electricity, it will have to be connected to the Gleneagles Hotel private drainage scheme, for which an annual levy will be payable. Anna Gardiner, for selling agents Savills, said: 'Caledonian Crescent is a broad private street lined with substantial houses set within generous and established gardens. 'In recent years it had become known as one of the Scotland's premier residential streets. The world-famous hotel (pictured) in Scotland has three championship course - the King's Course, the Queen's Course and the Centenary Course - as well as the nine hole 'Wee Course' The plot on the right was sold for £1.7million but the price of the remaining acre (left) has been slashed to £1million . 'A number of substantial modern mansions have been built on the sites of some of the original dwellings or on greenfield sites at the foot of the crescent. 'It is a great opportunity, especially as the plot is fully serviced and good to go. 'The setting is second to none in such a peaceful position so close to all the Gleneagles Hotel facilities.' She added that the price tag will afford the buyer a secluded and exclusive retreat. 'It's all about exclusivity. The site is pretty special - you don't get this quality of plot anywhere else,' she said. 'It's really a lifestyle you are buying into. The kind of people who will be interested will be looking for a substantial house. An artist's impression of what the six-bedroom house in Caledonian Crescent, Auchterarder, could look like . The buyers will also get two years' free golf club membership and access to all the luxury facilities, pictured is the entrance to the plot . 'Golf is obviously the big draw but also the fact that the hotel facilities are on your doorstep, giving you access to fine dining and the spa.' The five star hotel - dubbed a 'Riviera in the Highlands' - charges up to £2,000-a-night for a suite. It counts the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge among its high profile guests, along with Sir Sean Connery and John Travolta. Last year, the golf course was the venue for Ryder Cup, and residents of Auchterarder, despite living a few minutes' walk away, enjoyed shuttle buses to the event. The plot for sale in Caledonian Crescent has previously been on the market for over £1.55million and a neighbouring, almost identical piece of land, was snapped up for £1.7million a few years ago. In 2009 the street was named as the most expensive in Scotland by the property website Zoopla, with the average house price sitting at £1.6million . When it was opened in 1924, Gleneagles was described as 'a Riviera in the Highlands' and 'the eighth wonder of the world' Rettie estate agent Chris Hall said: 'Only one sold for £1.67m. Gleneagles withdrew the second hoping the market conditions would improve.' The agent admitted: 'The plot price has come down significantly. To buy a plot for £1million or more and develop a house is a significant investment. 'People who can afford that already have nice houses. It's a discretionary decision rather than one driven by a need.' He said: 'The current reduced price level is an attractive opportunity for some people. 'For those familiar with Gleneagles, Caledonian Crescent is very well known. There are six very substantial new build homes with build costs ranging from £2million to £7million. 'I'm not aware of any other street that rivals it in that respect.' Residents of Caledonian Crescent only have a five minute stroll to the entrance to the hotel, where they can dine in the two star Michelin restaurant run by Andrew Fairlie. In 2007 Strathearn Lodge on Caledonian Crescent was labelled the most expensive new home on sale in the country being marketed at offers over £3.75million. Meanwhile the street came out top of Zoopla's Scottish Property Rich List . In 2009 the street was named as the most expensive in Scotland by the property website Zoopla, with the average house price sitting at £1.6million. The world-famous hotel in Scotland has three championship courses, the King's Course, the Queen's Course and the Centenary Course as well as the nine hole 'Wee Course'. When it was opened in 1924, Gleneagles was described as 'a Riviera in the Highlands' and 'the eighth wonder of the world'. It most recently hosted the 2014 Ryder Cup which saw Team Europe beat Team USA 16½ to 11½ to complete a hat-trick of successive wins in the tournament. The hotel was built by the former Caledonian Railway Company, with its own railway station just minutes away, and is now owned by Diageo plc. In 1919 The King's and Queen's courses opened on the same day, but The King's but was only nine holes until it was completed as a full 18 in 1925. When the Second World War broke out in 1939 the hotel closed and became a military hospital and then a miners' rehabilitation centre. It reopened as a hotel in May 1947. In 1993 the PGA Centenary Course, created by Jack Nicklaus, opened to complement the renowned King's and Queen's courses and form one of the world's finest golfing venues.

(CNN) -- While some experts expected 2013 would be the year that Florida's population edged out New York's, the Empire State barely held its spot as the nation's third most populous, according to data released Monday by the U.S. Census Bureau. While Florida continues to trail New York slightly, the updated numbers show the population gap closing. The two states are separated by about 100,000 people. Last year, New York had about 250,000 more people than Florida. New York's population is 19.65 million, according to the 2013 estimates, and Florida's is 19.55 million. "This has been going on for many years, it's not a recent phenomenon," said Stan Smith, population program director at the University of Florida's Bureau of Economic and Business Research (BEBR). "After many years of higher growth, Florida is now poised to overtake New York within the next couple of years." Smith predicted the two states would trade places in the population ranking next year. Andrew Beveridge, a sociology professor at Queens College in New York, had predicted before Monday's report that the event would likely occur this year. "It will pass next year, the next time these are done," Beveridge said Monday. "If it doesn't pass, it means there will be a change in pattern." The U.S. population is a little more than 316 million, up an estimated 2.25 million since 2012, according to the report. The most recently released census data fall in line with long-term trends, Beveridge said. Southern and Southwestern states continue to gain relative to those in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic and Midwest regions. The data also show that growth patterns are returning to normal after the financial crisis, which temporarily slowed growth in Florida and other states, Beveridge said. From April 2010 to July 2012, Florida's population grew about 2.7%. In the same period, New York's grew only 1%. The national growth rate for the period was 1.7%. While New York City and its surrounding suburbs, the Albany area, and Ithaca are all growing, much of upstate New York is experiencing declines in population, Beveridge said. Manufacturing jobs have diminished in northern New York cities like Rochester, Buffalo and Syracuse. Florida, on the other hand, is seeing a jump in tourism, real estate, construction, medicine and finance. But immigration is also an important factor in explaining Florida's rise. "Florida's growth for many years has been due primarily to migration," Smith said. "Typically, 80 to 90% of growth in the state has to do with people moving in." The spike in migration includes people moving from other states as well as from abroad, Smith said. Based on responses to BEBR surveys, Smith said, most people moving to Florida do so for job-related reasons. The state also draws retirees seeking a warmer climate. When Florida surpasses and continues to outpace New York in population, it will likely end up with more seats in the U.S. House of Representatives after the next official census, in 2020. After the last release of official census data, from 2010, New York lost two seats and Florida gained two. Both states now have 27 House members. California (38.33 million) is still far and away the most populous state, according to Monday's report. Texas, where an estimated 26.45 million people live, is second.
Census estimate: Florida, expected to overtake New York in population, remains No. 4 . The U.S. population estimate grew by about 2 million since the 2012 estimate . Recent data show growth patterns normalizing after the financial crisis .

By . Christine Show and Daily Mail Reporter . PUBLISHED: . 15:03 EST, 8 May 2012 . | . UPDATED: . 17:21 EST, 8 May 2012 . Dangerous wood-eating termites that can destroy trees and damage homes are the latest infestation to turn up in Florida. The Nasutitermes corniger termite are native to the Caribbean but have now joined the 20 or so other species of termites which live in the Sunshine State. The pesky insects are the latest unusual species found in Southern Florida along with African rats, Burmese pythons, and poisonous caterpillars. Not welcome: The Nasutitermes corniger termite, which is native to the Caribbean, have been found in southern Florida. They feast on hard wood and build tunnels up the outside of houses . The arrival of the termite poses a particular problem because they feast on hardwood, foraging on trees, garden furniture and attack the outside wall of homes. The termites differ from Florida's other species because they are found above ground and can fly - making it easier for them to establish new nests. As well as milllions of termites, Florida boasts a menagerie of animals you'd be best to avoid: . The so-called Sunshine state has four types of poisonous caterpillars whose sting can cause humans to pass out in pain. Beware the saddleback caterpillar, the puss caterpillar, the io caterpillar and the hag caterpillar. Southern Florida's crocodiles, which grow up to 14 feet, have multiplied 10-fold in the last 40 years. There are about 1,500 of the reptiles. A growing population of Burmese pythons are threatening to wipe out large numbers of raccoons, opossums and other small mammals in the Everglades area. Huge Gambian pouch rats, which grow up to nine pounds, have been found on Florida's Grassy Key despite efforts to eradicate them. Boa constrictors, Nile monitor lizards, and vervet monkeys have also wreaked havoc on local animal species. They build tunnels running up the outside of houses and trees where they create beach ball sized nests weighing up to 28 kilograms. And a single nest could hold more than a million termites, Rudolf H. Scheffrahn, professor of entomology at the University of Florida, told the Sun Sentinel. 'They love to eat hardwoods. They ate the handles off garden implements, rakes and hoes — turned them into shredded wheat. If this thing really keeps going, it's going to be a problem for tropical Florida, from West Palm Beach to the Keys,' warned Scheffrahn. He worries that the new species could increase the amount of termites in the Dania Beach region by as much as 30 per cent. But agricultural officials are determined to stamp out the plague of termites before they spread any further. Currently the species have only been spotted in 42 properties in Dania Beach. However, this translates to an infestation of up to 120 colonies meaning there are already 100 million in the area. Properties in Dania Beach were treated today in a bid to banish the insects although efforts to eradicate them will be spread over four days. 'They got into the tool shed and ate our stack of firewood,' resident Martha Rosen told the Sun Sentinel. 'We went to pick it up and there was no wood left. They're very aggressive. My trees look like they're almost dead,' she added. 'Out-of-control hysterical': The io caterpillar is one of four types of venomous caterpillars to release toxins with the slightest touch that can cause people to pass out from pain . 'On fire': A saddleback caterpilalr (pictured) has been known to bring the worst pain of the four kinds of stinging caterpillars in Florida that is like having a 'bee sting times a hundred' Last month venomous caterpillars that use their spines to attack were the latest threat to the region. Dr Jeffrey Bernstein, medical director of the Florida Poison Information Center in Miami, told the Sun-Sentinel newspaper that although the center has not seen any deaths from caterpillar stings, they have gotten hundreds of calls for help with people 'out-of-control hysterical.' 'It's a very painful sting,' Dr Bernstein told the newspaper. 'We even see people pass out from the pain.' The four types of caterpillars with the awful venom include the saddleback caterpillar, the puss caterpillar, the io caterpillar and the hag caterpillar. When they attack humans, the venom can be unbearable, particularly if the saddleback releases its poison. South Florida resident Michael Stanwyck told the Sun-Sentinel: It's like somebody lit you on fire.' He went on to say: 'A bee sting times a hundred.' The species is most threatening around this time of year in Florida as the weather starts to get warmer. Eggs begin to hatch and the caterpillars grow to become moths. Some people, although rare, can have an allergic reaction to the toxins. and are encouraged to call 911 or go to hospital. They can experience vomiting, shortness of breath and other reactions. Others with less severe attacks can be treated at home by calling Poison Control. Scotch tape can be placed over the wounded area and stripped off over and over again to remove the spines from within the skin. Although their poison is painful, the caterpillars are not looking to harm anyone or anything. Jaret Daniels, assistant professor of entomology at the University of Florida, told the Sun-Sentinel that they are merely trying to protect themselves. The venom is used as the caterpillars' predators, like birds and lizards. Mr Daniels said: If you're a caterpillar, you have a very challenging life because everything wants to eat you. 'They're not trying to hurt you. They're doing it to avoid being eaten.' Florida has become a popular new . home for interesting creatures, including crocodiles that can grow up to 14 feet long. Protection: The hag caterpilalr is also poisonous as it tries to protect itself from birds, lizards and other attackers that can eat them and prevent them from becoming a moth . Coexist: Officials urge people to leave the venomous species, like the puss caterpillar, alone as they are not trying to hurt people with their poison that could provoke an allergic reaction to humans . The reptiles have multiplied 10-fold in the last 40 years in south Florida with about 1,500 crocodiles. But now they face a new challenge in the area because most of the places they used to call home are now inhabited by humans. Humans in Florida also have to worry about huge pythons that are wiping . out the state's mammal populations. A . burgeoning population of Burmese . pythons — many of them pets that were turned loose by their owners when . they got too big — appears to be wiping out large numbers of raccoons, . opossums, bobcats and other mammals in the Everglades, according to a . study from the Proceeding of the National Academy of Sciences. Here to stay?: Once crocodiles decide on a place to live, it's difficult to get them to move meaning people in Florida might have to get used to having the species listed as 'threatened' by wildlife officials . The . study found that sightings of medium-size mammals are down . dramatically — as much as 99 percent, in some cases — in areas where . pythons and other large, non-native constrictor snakes are known to be . lurking. Scientists fear . the pythons could disrupt the food chain and upset the Everglades' environmental balance in ways difficult to predict. Another species that has threatened the state's environment are giant Gambian pouch rats that have . been found on Florida's Grassy Key despite concerted efforts . by conservation officials to eradicate them. Officials . worry that the voracious rats, which grow to nine pounds, might wipe . out some crops and upset the delicate ecological balance if they manage . to reach the Florida mainland. Another creature: Crocodiles aren't the only ones taking over in Florida as burmese pythons invaded the area . The Gambian rat first appeared on Grassy Key in 1999 after eight rats escaped from a local exotic pets breeder. 'We . thought we had them whipped as of 2009,' Scott Hardin, exotic-species . coordinator for the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, told . keysnet.com. 'In . the early part of 2011, a resident e-mailed me and said he saw one of . the rats. We were skeptical but went back and talked to people and [saw] . there were rats that we missed,' he added. Animals love Florida: African rats the size of cats have also taken up the warm state as their new home . Concern: Officials worry that the voracious rats, which grow to nine pounds, might wipe out some crops and upset the delicate ecological balance . After four female rats were found in . 2011, officials unsuccessfully launched another effort to kill them in November and . December, primarily through the use of poison-laced cantaloupe and . peanut butter. And it might become difficult to control crocodiles' interaction with humans if that population continues to grow. Crocodiles tend to stick to an area they decided they will live in now matter how much they have moved. So even if they leave a particular spot they chose as their own for weeks and travel far away, they are likely to return. They will likely continue to be one of the many species like boa constrictors, Nile monitor lizards, . vervet monkeys and more to join the state - and wreak havoc on local animal species.

By . Joshua Gardner . PUBLISHED: . 21:42 EST, 17 February 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 22:53 EST, 17 February 2013 . In 1967, a 13-year-old Oklahoma boy sent his mother a postcard. This past Feb. 15, that postcard suddenly decided to arrive. Forty-six years ago, Bert Jacobson went on a family trip to the east coast to buy trucks and equipment for the family’s concrete business. Mailbox Mystery: 46 years after he sent it, Bert Jacobson's postcard to his mom mysteriously arrived . Along the way, it seems the family visited the Old Country Store Museum in Hereford, Pennsylvania. ‘It was an awesome trip,’ Jacobson recalled to Oklahoma’s KWTV. Like any 13-year-old, Jacobson wanted to let his mother know what a great time he and his father and cousins were having. ‘Mom, Hi. We've been having a great time,’ Jacobson read aloud to a news crew while examining the perplexing postcard. Unlikely story: 'This is one in a billion' says a now grown up Jacobson, who sent the card from Penn. in 1967 . Tattered and yellowed, Jacobson’s curlicue cursive is still legible and a picture of a country store and a pot belly stove are clearly visible on the reverse. A 1967 postmark and Abraham Lincoln stamp carrying the price of four cents are also perfectly preserved. Wherever the postcard was all those years, it was protected from damaging elements. Still legible: Jacobson's cursive can still be read and the Abe Lincoln four cent stamp and USPS postmark from 1967 are still quite clear . However, no one has a clue where the place was. ‘Under a piece of machinery? I don't know,’ Jacobson wondered. But how the card suddenly went from lost to history to delivered like an everyday bill is a mystery. Unsolved: No one in the family knows how or why the card finally showed up, delivered as if it was an everyday parcel . ‘I have no idea,’ Jacobson mused, shaking his head. All those years ago, Jacobson addressed his childhood shoutout mom to the family business post office box. Miraculously, the family still uses that same PO box today and that, of course, is where the mystery card ended up. Jacobson’s sister, Marilyn Hubbard, said it was a company employee who first picked up the parcel. ‘This can’t be,’ was the shocked secretary’s response, Hubbard said. So what was Jacobson’s mom’s response to her son’s suddenly surfacing card? ‘She wasn’t really surprised that Burt had written her a card,’ Hubbard said, smiling, ‘but she was very surprised that it took years to get here.’ As for cool-headed Jacobson, he seemed to think such freak occurrences are bound to happen to someone. ‘Sure this is one in a billion,’ he said, ‘mine just happened to be one of them.’ NewsOn6.com - Tulsa, OK - News, Weather, Video and Sports - KOTV.com | .
Bert Jacobson's memento, sent during a trip to the east coast, took 46 years to travel from Pennsylvania to the family's town of Pauls Valley, Oklahoma . The family has no clue how or why the postcard suddenly showed up after nearly half a century .

(CNN) -- Gunmen abducted two American citizens along with their Filipino relative from a southern Philippines island Tuesday, police said. At about 3 a.m., 14 armed men snatched Gerfa Yeatts Lunsmann, 43, her son, Kevin, 14, and Lunsmann's Filipino nephew, Romnick Jakaria, 19, said Nonito Asbai, the area's police chief inspector. Police and the Filipino navy have launched search operations, Asbai said. The victims were forced at gunpoint to board awaiting boats, which then sped toward the troubled island of Basilan, a stronghold of the Islamic militant group Abu Sayyaf. No one, however, has claimed responsibility for the abduction or asked for a ransom. Jakaria's cousin, Alma Jakaria, said Lunsmann was adopted by Americans when she was 9 and grew up in Virginia. She married a German citizen and had her son, Kevin. Both she and Kevin are U.S. passport holders. Police suspect the son attracted attention because of his distinctive mixed-race looks in an area with few foreign tourists. The three were vacationing in Tictabon and were supposed to have returned to the capital, Manila, later Tuesday, Alma Jakaria said. Basilan serves as a base for Abu Sayyaf, which wants to establish a separate state for the Philippines' minority Muslim population. The U.S. State Department considers it a terrorist organization and says it is linked to al Qaeda. The Philippine government has been fighting to contain the militants. Abu Sayyaf has been blamed for terrorist attacks in the Philippines, including the 2004 bombing of a ferry that left about 130 people dead as well as past kidnappings. CNN affiliate ABS-CBN's Queenie Casimiro contributed to this report.

(CNN) -- The week started with all focus on golf's latest child prodigy, but it has ended with a former wonder kid finally fulfilling her great promise. Michelle Wie claimed her first major title Sunday, winning the U.S. Women's Open at her 11th attempt. Now 24, she triumphed by two shots from fellow American, Stacy Lewis, holding her nerve as the world No. 1 made a final-round charge. "Oh my God, I can't believe this is happening," an ecstatic Wie was quoted as saying by the PGA website in the aftermath of her victory. "Obviously, there are moments of doubt in there," she continued, referring to the prospect that she might never win a major."(But) I had so many people surrounding me. They never lost faith in me. That's pushed me forward." This mental fortitude was on display as Wie overcame a double-bogey at the 16th hole, bouncing back with a birdie at the next and closing with a par to sign for a level 70. Lewis also dropped a shot at 16, but finished with two birdies to card a four-under-par 66 that left her level for the tournament. She finished one ahead of Northern Ireland's 22-year-old Stephanie Meadow, who birdied her last hole to take third place in her professional debut ahead of South Korea's Amy Yang. Most of the talk at the start of the tournament, which was played at Pinehurst -- also host of the men's equivalent the previous week -- was on 11-year-old Lucy Li. The American was the youngest qualifier to start the event, but missed the halfway cut after carding two rounds of 78, though she impressed many with her mature attitude. Wie first competed in an LPGA event when she was 12, then turned pro when she was 15 and also played in several men's tournaments while still a teenager. At age 16, she made the cut at the 2006 SK Telecom Open men's event in South Korea, reportedly receiving a higher appearance fee than the winner took home. Before this week, she had won four titles on the LPGA Tour -- but her best result in a major was runner-up at the Kraft Nabisco Championship earlier this season, and as an amateur at the 2005 LPGA Championship. Red hot Streelman wins Travelers . On the men's PGA Tour, Kevin Streelman birdied his last seven holes in a row to overtake Sergio Garcia, K.J. Choi, and Aaron Baddeley and claim a sensational Travelers Championship victory at TPC River Highlands Sunday. The 35-year-old was way off the pace as he headed on to the back nine but made birdie on the 411-yard par-four 12th to signify the beginning of a red hot charge that would see him claim the outright lead on 15-under-par at the last. Streelman had to wait for Choi and Garcia to finish their rounds but the chasing pair couldn't make birdie at the 18th sealing a remarkable triumph for the American. The win marks first time a player has ever birdied the last seven holes of a tournament to win a title on the PGA Tour. "(It was) just one of those days where I felt I couldn't miss," a delighted Streelman told CBS after reaching the club house. Choi and Garcia finished joint second on 14-under-par while Baddeley ended the day a shot further back in fourth at 13-under-par. America's Brendan Steele and Ryan Moore tied for fifth at 12-under-par. Ilonen holds on in Cork . Finland's Miko Ilonen held off Italy's Edoardo Molinari to win the Irish Open at Fota Island in Cork by a single shot. Ilonen had led the tournament from the opening day but suffered a late scare on the par-five last after driving a wayward tee-shot into the trees. The 34-year-old composed himself, however, and closed out with a bogie to finish at 13-under-par and win by the slimmest of margins. Sweden's Kristoffer Broberg and English duo Matthew Baldwin and Danny Willett finished the day tied for third on 11-under-par behind second placed Molinari on 12-under. Home favorite Graeme McDowell, meanwhile, failed to secure a much desired first win on Irish soil as a poor putting display ensured he ended the tournament in sixth position at 10-under-par.

A plastic surgeon has called for a change to the way a German battalion does its rifle drill after its elite soldiers started developing breasts. Dozens of soldiers in the Wachbataillon unit (Guard Battalion), which performs drill displays at official events, have complained about over-developed breasts on their left-hand side because of the way they clasp their rifles. It is understood the repeated slapping of their rifles against their chests has stimulated hormones, causing a condition known as one-sided gynecomastia. Dozens of soldiers in Germany's Guard Battalion, which performs drill displays at official events, have complained about developing breasts on their left-hand side because of the way they clasp their rifles . It is understood the repeated slapping of their rifles against the same glands in their chests has stimulated hormones to cause a condition called one sided gynecomastia . The Wachbataillon is the Germany's elite drill unit. The Wachbataillon is the largest battalion of the German forces with about 1,800 soldiers, split between garrisons in Berlin and Siegburg. It is made up of nine companies and its primary responsibility is to perform the military honours for the German president, the German Chancellor, the Federal Minister of Defence and the Inspector General of the Bundeswehr during state visits or similar occasions. Its soldiers are not allowed to grow beards or moustaches and until recently were only admitted if they were between 5 ft 10 in and 6 ft 4 in in height. The condition has been diagnosed in 74 per cent of the soldiers who have visited German army medics with symptoms. Professor Bjorn Krapohl, director of plastic surgery at the military hospital in Berlin, told the German Herald: 'There is a very significant link between the activity in the Guard . Battalion and the development of the breast on the left side. 'They need to change the way they drill. 'The constant slamming of the rifles against the left hand side of the chest is clearly a significant factor.' Official figures reveal that out of 211 male patients operated on for the condition, 35 were from the elite Wachbataillon. Military officials have said they will research the condition and adapt the battalion's drills if necessary. An army spokesman said: 'The affected soldiers are being medically supervised and treated individually.' Army medics have diagnosed the condition in 74 per cent of the soldiers who visited them with symptoms . VIDEO: WATCH THE WACHBATALLION UNIT CARRY OUT ITS RIFLE DRILL .

Hillary Clinton, the former secretary of state who is preparing to run for president on a populist platform of fighting income inequality, demanded $2,777 per minute for two university speaking engagements and insisted on contracts that cut off reporters' access to her and limited the number of photos she would take with well-wishers. The Harry Walker Agency drew up legal agreements for Clinton's speeches at the State University of New York at Buffalo in August 2013 and at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas next month. Combined, the two gigs netted the Clintons' family foundation $500,000 for three hours' work, and allowed her to cancel or reschedule the events 'for any reason whatsoever.'

UNLV will pay her another $225,000 for a similar 90-minute commitment, although angry students there have asked her to refund her fees since their tuition has nearly tripled since a decade ago.

(CNN) -- Two days after an embarrassingly early European Champions League exit, Manchester United have been dealt a further blow with the news that club captain Nemanja Vidic will miss the rest of this season. The defender was stretchered off during Wednesday's 2-1 defeat to Basel in Switzerland, a result which saw last season's finalists exit Europe's premier club competition at the group stage for the first time in six years. The Serbia international has ruptured cruciate ligaments in his knee, and manager Alex Ferguson said the 30-year-old will see a specialist on Monday to reveal the full extent of the injury. "We thought it was a bad one," the Scot told reporters on Friday. "He's out for the season. It's not unexpected but it's still bad news." The 19-time English champions are second in the Premier League, five points behind arch-rivals Manchester City ahead of Saturday's home match against Wolverhampton Wanderers. Vidic's injury limits United's options in central defense, with experienced England international Rio Ferdinand to partner Northern Ireland's Jonny Evans or one of versatile young duo Phil Jones and Chris Smalling. "He'll see a specialist on Monday to work out the progress of when he has the operation," confirmed Ferguson. "It won't be immediate as we have to let the swelling come down. "We'll now have to choose between Jonny Evans, Phil Jones and Chris Smalling. I thought Rio had his best game of season on Wednesday. His experience will be vital." Vidic is part of a growing injury list at Old Trafford, with Mexico striker Javier Hernandez also sidelined after damaging an ankle during last week's 1-0 win over Aston Villa. Midfielders Anderson and Tom Cleverley, Brazilian twins Fabio and Rafael da Silva, and veteran striker Michael Owen are also out. However, Bulgarian striker Dimitar Berbatov could return for Saturday's clash with Mick McCarthy's 16th-placed Wolves.

It will give constituents the opportunity to sign a petition demanding a by-election if an MP is jailed - or if the House of Commons 'resolves that an MP should face a recall petition'. Deputy Prime Minister, walking with Labour's shadow culture secretary Harriet Harman in Parliament today, has watered down proposals to give voters the power to sack MPs . But the proposals were slammed by Tory backbencher Zac Goldsmith, who said MPs should not have a role in deciding whether or not they should face a petition to be sacked. He said: 'Recall is about empowering people to hold their MPs to account at all times, that's all it is. 'It's a very simple mechanism that happens all over the world. What this bill will do is that it gives that power to a committee of parliamentarians, of MPs - the same committee, by the way, that got into trouble over Maria Miller.' Mr Goldsmith warned that the measures would leave voters with 'no more power after this bill goes through than they do today', and predicted an 'immense' backlash. He added: 'It's worse than meaningless, it's a pretense, and voters will know it's a pretense at the very first scandal.' He insisted he was still 'pleased' that there will be a recall bill going through Parliament. Tory MP Zac Goldsmith has led a campaign to introduce the power of recall. He wants voters to be given the power to spark a by-election if they want to get rid of their member of Parliament . But he added: 'The criteria are so narrow that it's virtually meaningless, it would be impossible to recall anyone. 'So the danger of this - and it really is a danger, particularly on the back of this huge Ukip vote we saw last week - is that people will discover at the very first scandal that they have been duped, that they have no more power after this bill goes through than they do today, and I think the backlash will be immense. Former Labour MP Denis MacShane was jailed for six months last year after he was caught fiddling his expenses by more than £12,000 . 'It's worse than meaningless, it's a pretense, and voters will know it's a pretense at the very first scandal... that's the politest word I can possibly think of, it's a pretense, that's what it is.' The Taxpayers’ Alliance meanwhile said it was an 'embarrassingly weak' proposal. The group's chief executive Jonathan Isaby said: "This stitch-up will do nothing to restore the trust of voters in politics. It will centralise more power in Westminster, rather than handing it to voters.' Alexandra Runswick, Director of Unlock Democracy, added: 'These recall proposals are symbolic of the government’s attitude to democratic reform. 'They say they want to give power back to the people but never quite manage to manage to follow through. The power to recall an elected representative between elections is an essential mechanism for democratic accountability. 'Recall enjoyed cross-party support and featured in every party manifesto. Why are the government afraid of giving voters their say? 'Genuine recall empowers voters not parliamentary committees. At the moment when there is a scandal political parties can have a say, they can withdraw the whip from the MP, Parliament can have a say through the Standards Committee but voters are left out in the cold. 'The government’s watered down version of recall risks creating the illusion that people will have a say in recalling their elected representative while ensuring that this will probably never happen in practice. There is a real danger that this could alienate people from politics and politicians even further.'
Watered-down 'right to recall' included in the Queen's speech today . Constituents can demand by-election but only if Commons agrees it is fair . Tory MPs attack the proposal as a con which will only anger the public .

The last of the six Britons arrested by Russian authorities during a Greenpeace protest in the Arctic has been freed . Philip Ball from Oxford was granted bail last week but remained in detention before being released by a court in St Petersburg today. Only one of the 30 people arrested by the Russian authorities two months ago - Australian Colin Russell - remains in detention. Finally free: Philip Ball from Oxford was the final British Greenpeace activist to be released from jail in Russia . Relief: Mr Ball's brother, Steve, said they are thrilled he can now talk to his family and friends after two months . Greenpeace's Arctic Sunrise was seized by the Russian authorities, who arrested the 28 activists and two freelance journalists on board. The International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea, sitting in Hamburg, has ruled that the ship and those arrested should be released in return for a 3.6 million euro (£3 million) bond. The five Britons previously released were Anthony Perrett, from Newport in south Wales, freelance journalist Kieron Bryan, Alexandra Harris from Exeter, Iain Rogers from Devon, and Frank Hewetson from London. Mr Ball's brother, Steve, said: 'It's absolutely brilliant news. After two months in jail he could have done without another weekend behind bars, but it's a great relief to know he's finally out and able to talk to his friends and colleagues. Protest: Mr Ball wrote slogans on his hands, including 'Save the Arctic' during a court hearing . Protest: Mr Ball leaves the Kalininskiy Court in St Petersburg with 'Save The Arctic' sown onto his shirt . 'Our thoughts though are still with Colin's family. It's great to see people from the four corners of the world calling for his immediate release and I do hope he'll be able to join the other 29 soon.' Ben Ayliffe, of Greenpeace . International, said: 'This is news we've been waiting for all weekend, . but of course our hearts and thoughts remain with Colin Russell and his . family. 'Since being . reunited after their release, our friends in St Petersburg have swapped . stories, tears and experiences, hugged friends and each other and told . of their great resolve and commitment to defending the Arctic against . oil drilling and climate change. 'This is not over yet and none of us . will be truly happy until all of the Arctic 30 have been released from . detention and the charges against them dropped.' Freed: Greenpeace International activist Alexandra Harris is greeted as she leaves a jail after being freed on bail in St. Petersburg, Russia . Greenpeace . said it was not yet certain whether the released non-Russian nationals . can leave Russia and return home, while lawyers for Mr Russell are . lodging appeals against his continued detention and expect a hearing to . be held this week. Speaking . to Australian media, Colin's wife, Christine - who plans to travel to St . Petersburg with the couple's daughter, Madeleine, this week - has . appealed to Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott to do more to help . secure her husband's release. She . said: 'I just think Colin would be so ashamed at the thought that our . prime minister and foreign affairs minister have not been able to take . five minutes... and pick up the phone and make direct representations.' The . tribunal last week ruled that 'the Russian Federation shall immediately . release the vessel Arctic Sunrise and all persons who have been . detained upon the posting of a bond or other financial security by the . Netherlands'. Released: Anthony Perrett, from Newport in South Wales, was arrested by Russian authorities during a Greenpeace protest in the Arctic - he was freed on bail after spending two months in detention . Relief: Videographer Kieron Bryan of Britain smiles as he is released on bail from prison in St. Petersburg last week . It also ordered Russia to allow the vessel and those detained to leave the country. After their release last week, Mr Bryan and Ms Harris told how tough . it had been when they were locked up after the Greenpeace vessel Arctic . Sunrise was boarded by Russian security forces during a protest against . oil drilling. Ms Harris revealed she was kept in a cell on her own after being taken to a prison in Murmansk. 'For the first week it was really harsh. It was nerve-wracking,' she told BBC News immediately after being released. Freed: Greenpeace International activist and the captain of the Greenpeace ship Arctic Sunrise Peter Willcox of the U.S., leaves gates after being released from 'Kresty' Crosses prison in St.Petersburg . 'I was in a cell on my own. You do get used to it, but it was tough.' Ms Harris said letters from supporters had kept her going. Mr . Perrett is a tree surgeon and director of a community interest company . which encourages and supports the use of renewable energy. He said the Arctic was where the battle to save the planet will be fought. Friends . said he went to the Arctic driven by his belief that there are ways to . live on this planet without destroying it. Before he left, he said he . was nervous but not afraid of going on the trip. The . 30 were arrested during a protest against drilling in the Arctic and . were initially held in Murmansk before being moved to St Petersburg. They were charged with piracy but the authorities said this would be changed to hooliganism. Greenpeace said the 30 had done nothing wrong, and the group has launched a worldwide campaign to have them freed. VIDEO: All smiles. British Greenpeace activist finally granted bail in Russia .

By . Daily Mail Reporter . PUBLISHED: . 18:45 EST, 14 December 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 21:47 EST, 14 December 2013 . An eight-year-old girl will spend her first Christmas alone after her single mother and younger sister were killed in a horrific car crash on Tuesday morning. Jillian Sedivec, 28, and Savanah Wilson, four, died when their GMC Yukon plowed into the back of a Ralph’s grocery store big rig on the Interstate 5 near Oceanside, California. Traffic investigators said it appeared Sedivec failed to brake as she approached the stationary truck, with her loved ones speculating she may have been tending to her daughter at the time. Tragic: Single mom Jillian Sedivec, 28, and her four-year-old daughter Savanah died when their vehicle slammed into a truck near Oceanside, California on Tuesday . Left alone: Eight-year-old Cydney (front left) has been orphaned after her mother Jillian Sedivec (right) and little sister Savanah (center) were killed on Tuesday . Family and friends were devastated at news of the crash, which has left Sedivec's daughter Cydney an orphan. Sedivec's father Jeff Sedivec, from Idaho, said his daughter was a loving mom whose life revolved around Savanah who was diagnosed with a genetic disease. 'I don’t know if either one of them could have survived without the other,' he told UT San Diego. The family set up a Jillian and Savanah Sedivec Memorial Fund on FundRazr for Sedivec's surviving daughter. 'This fund is for Jillian's surviving  8 year old daughter Cydney and to help with the funeral and memorial expenses,' the online memorial fund says. 'The entire family appreciates everyone's thoughts and prayers as they endure this difficult time.' Nearly $10,000 has been raised in donations for the family. Cydney is being cared for by family members. Loving mother: Friends and family said Jillian Sedivec was devoted to her daughter Savanah (both pictured) who was seriously ill . Police said the grocery store truck was stopped in a . line of other trucks at the San Onofre Commercial Vehicle Enforcement . Facility near the I-5 checkpoint around 9.20am, according to NBC7. Witnesses said Sedivec, from Oceanside, didn't swerve to avoid the collision, however an investigation could take months. The truck driver was not injured and not at fault. Sedivec's best friend Allison Kowalcyk told CBS8 she didn't believe Sedivec was driving irresponsibly before slamming her car into a truck. 'I don't believe in my heart there was any irresponsibility (on Sedivec's part). I believe that she was trying to tend to her daughter,' she said. 'Because she was so devoted to her.' Friends say Savanah suffered from neurofibromatosis, a genetic disorder which caused tumors to grow in her legs and stunt her development. Sedivec reportedly worked three jobs to support her family. 'Her daughter [Cydney] is left behind with no mom or sister before Christmas,' a friend told CBS8. Crash scene: Police said the tractor-trailer rig was stopped in the right northbound lane of I-5, preparing to exit at the truck scales, when the crash occurred about 9.20am on Tuesday morning . Fatal: Traffic investigators said it appeared the driver of the SUV did not apply the brakes before the deadly crash . Damaged: Officials said the Yukon was wrecked so badly, investigators initially thought there might be a third victim inside . California Highway Patrol officer Jim Bettencourt told UT San Diego officers will look into Sedivec’s cellphone records to try to determine if she may have been using her phone before the crash. 'What she was doing before the accident, we just don’t know,' he said. However, he ruled out alcohol or drugs as factors, and said Sedivec was wearing a seat belt, and her daughter was belted in a car seat.

'But when you're in a room full of 16 other nude people you get over your fears pretty quickly.

By . Daily Mail Reporter . A German angler has managed to break the world record by landing the biggest cod ever caught. The mighty cod weighed in at 103lbs - smashing the existing record, that has been held for 44 years, by nearly 5lbs. Michael Eisele, from Kiel, Germany, was on a fishing trip to Norway when he snared the whopper. Catch of the day: An angler is celebrating after breaking the record for catching the world's biggest ever cod . The 44-year-old and his party had just been about to head back to port after an unsuccessful day's fishing when he got a bite. Mr Eisele spent 30 minutes trying to reel in the catch and said his knees started trembling when he saw it as it breached the water. The cod was so big two of his friends had to hold him back in fear he would have been dragged overboard by it. They . helped him heave it on board and Mr Eisele was barely able to hold it by . himself for the obligatory photograph on board the fishing boat. The one that didn't get away: Mr Eisele spent 30 minutes trying to reel in the catch and said his knees started trembling when he saw it as it breached the water . Strike a pose: The cod was so big two of his friends had to hold him back in fear he would have been dragged overboard by it . The 5ft long cod tipped the scales at 47 kilograms. The existing record stood at 98lbs 12ozs for a cod caught off New Hampshire in 1969. Mr Eisele's cod is not only a world record but also the very first to hit the 100lbs mark. Mr Eisele said he caught the fish in 90ft of water 10 miles off the Norwegian island of Soroya. He said: 'The fishing had been quiet all day. The just one hour before the turn of the tideI got a bite. Donated: Mr Eisele donated the record fish to the Norwegian Fisheries Museum in Bergen which will have it stuffed and mounted . 'I saw two red dots on the sonar-screen and it looked like a big one. 'So I concentrated from that moment on. It felt like ground contact. I took it very slowly and carefully. 'It took me more than half an hour to get the fish up. When we saw the fish my knees was starting shaking. It was so big. 'I needed the help from both boys staying in my boat to get it landed. 'It was an indescribable feeling. It was fish of a lifetime. 'I am a little proud to have the record.' Mr Eisele, the managing director of a fishing tackle manufacturers, donated the record fish to the Norwegian Fisheries Museum in Bergen which will have it stuffed and mounted. But he has submitted an application for his world record catch to the International Game Fishing Association.

(CNN) -- Investigators found the blood of Susan Powell, the mother of two who went missing in 2009, inside the family's Utah home and a handwritten will saying she feared for her life at the hands of her husband, court documents show. The documents, unsealed late Friday, offer a glimpse of the evidence authorities collected that put Powell's husband at the center of the investigation into her December 2009, disappearance. They also raise questions about why he was not arrested prior to killing himself and his two sons in a murder-suicide in February. "If he had been in jail, our grandchildren would still be alive," Chuck Cox, the father of Susan Powell, told Seattle-based CNN affiliate KOMO. Authorities say Josh Powell snatched the two boys -- Braden and Charlie -- from a social worker, who was delivering them for a supervised visit. He locked the doors and killed them and himself moments before his Puyallup, Washington, home exploded. "Despite these events, Susan Powell is still missing. Her whereabouts, we haven't solved that yet. What happened to her, we still need to work on that," West Valley City Police Chief Thayle "Buzz" Nielsen told reporters, according to CNN affiliate KSL of Salt Lake City. "My department is committed to locating Susan and bringing a resolution to this case. That's why it's still active." The documents used as part of an affidavit to request a search warrant of Josh Powell's Washington home are also tied to a criminal case involving his father, Steven Powell. Josh Powell maintained his innocence in his wife's disappearance until his death. He had said he last saw her on December 6, 2009, after he and his two sons left after midnight to go camping in below-freezing weather in a desert area in Tooele County, Utah. Susan Powell's sister reported her missing. A month later, Powell and his children moved from Utah to Washington where he moved in with his father. But the documents paint a picture of a man uncooperative with authorities whose story about the night his wife disappeared changed several times. They also reveal that one of the sons, Charlie, told a police investigator that "his mommy went camping with them, although she did not come back with them and he did not know why," the documents said. Weeks later in Washington, Charlie told a teacher that "my mom is dead." In the hours after Susan Powell was reported missing, authorities said they found two fans inside the living room sofa that appeared to have just been cleaned. A search of the Powell home found "blood evidence was located on the tile floor next to the carpet adjacent to the sofa. Forensic tests of this blood indicated it was Susan Powell's," the documents said. The documents also reveal authorities found Susan Powell's cell phone in the possession of Josh Powell. The phone was switched off and its portable memory chip, known as a SIM card, was missing, the documents said. "We believe Josh intentionally removed that SIM card from the cell phone to intentionally thwart investigators," said West Valley City Police Sgt. Mike Powell, who is not related to the family. He also later surrendered his cell phone to authorities, who say that phone also had its SIM card removed. During the early days of the investigation, a detective located a safe deposit box that Susan Powell opened at a bank in Salt Lake City. In the box, the detective found a letter that was folded and stapled around the edges. The letter was titled "Last Will & Testament for Susan Powell." "This handwritten document indicates that she did not trust Josh Powell at all," Sgt. Powell said. She wrote that her husband had "threatened to destroy her if they get divorced and her children will not have a mother and father," the documents said. It also said, according to the documents, that "if Susan Powell dies it may not be an accident, even if it looks like one." The documents also reveal that Susan Powell was terrified of her father-in-law, Steven Powell. Authorities have said they discovered child pornography on the computer of Steven Powell. He was subsequently jailed and charged with 14 counts of voyeurism involving two child victims, and one count of possessing pictures of a minor engaged in sexually explicit conduct, according to court records.
The blood of Susan Powell was found on tile, court documents say . Powell left a will that said her husband threatened to destroy her, the documents say . Powell was last seen on December 6, 2009, at her family's Utah home . Josh Powell killed his two sons and himself in February .

(CNN) -- German billionaire Adolf Merckle, one of the richest men in the world, committed suicide Monday after his business empire got into trouble in the wake of the international financial crisis, Merckle's family said Tuesday in a statement. Merckle, 74, was hit by a train in the southwestern town of Ulm, police said. His family said the economic crisis had "broken" Merckle. He was number 94 on the Forbes list of the world's richest people. He had fallen from number 44 on the Forbes 2007 rich list as his fortune declined from $12.8 billion to $9.2 billion in 2008. Merckle's business empire included interests as diverse as cement-maker HeidelbergCement and generic drug-maker Ratiopharm. But he lost hundreds of millions of dollars, including company capital, betting against Volkswagen stock last year. The state government of Baden-Wuerttemberg rejected his petition for financial assistance, and he entered bailout talks with several German banks. "The financial troubles of his companies, induced by the international financial crisis and the uncertainty and powerlessness to act independently which the financial problems brought about, broke the passionate family business man, and he took his own life," his family wrote in the news release. An employee of Germany's railroad company found the body on the tracks at about 7 p.m. Monday and notified authorities. Merckle's family had already reported him missing earlier in the day after he walked out of the house and did not return. Authorities are currently conducting DNA tests to confirm his identity. CNN's Frederik Pleitgen in Germany and Alysen Miller in London, England, contributed to this report.

The house where notorious Colombian drug kingpin Pablo Escobar was killed is on the market – and it could be transformed into a tourist destination. With an asking price of $250,000 (£160,000), the five-bedroom house in Medellin is already a draw for curious visitors who want to see where the wealthy and ruthless drug lord’s reign of terror came to an abrupt end 21 years ago. But it could become a legitimate tourist site – such as a themed guesthouse or public museum – now that it is being advertised as an opportunity for rich foreign investors, according to Colombia Reports. Scroll down for video . The five-bedroom house where Pablo Escobar spent his final days has been listed for £160,000 . 'King of Cocaine': Pablo Escobar is said to have had a net worth of nearly £20bn . After becoming one of the world’s wealthiest and most feared men, Escobar, who is said to have had a net worth of nearly £20bn, was gunned down on the roof of the two-storey house as he tried to elude the Search Bloc, a special police unit established to lead the manhunt, on 2 December 1993. ‘The King of Cocaine’ and other members of the Medellin Cartel were among the world’s most wanted drug traffickers in the late 1980s and early 1990s, with US special forces joining the manhunt a year before he was killed. A man walks in front of the house in 2008, the year it was purchased, after falling into disrepair . Colombian police and military forces storm the rooftop where drug lord Pablo Escobar was shot dead . Today, tourists regularly pull up to the house to snap photos, but current homeowner Omar Restrepo has denied their requests to get a peek inside the bedroom where Escobar spent his final days or a look at the roof where he was killed, Colombia reports said. Before it was purchased by Mr Restrepo in 2008 the property was abandoned and had fallen into disrepair while it was occupied by drug users and homeless people. Thieves stripped the house of almost everything, including its electrical cords and light switches, and even ripped open walls hoping to find cash or objects left behind by the drug lord. With his wealth, Pablo Escobar built a luxurious Medellin estate known as Hacienda Napoles . After extensive renovations the house was listed for sale in 2012 but was taken off the market. Earlier this year, restaurant owner Christian Berdouare paid nearly £6m for a Miami Beach mansion once owned by the cocaine kingpin. Mr Berdouare planned to tear down the coral pink house, seized by US officials in the late 1980s, and rebuild.

American football players and fans alike braved bone-chilling conditions in Green Bay Sunday during one of the coldest games in National Football League (NFL) history. The temperature at the Green Bay Packers' Lambeau Field in Wisconsin was measured at four degrees Fahrenheit, with wind chill causing the mercury to dip as low as minus 14 during the visit of the San Francisco 49ers. An arctic front pushing through the Midwest, which has become known as a "polar vortex," was the reason for the frigid conditions, with players donning long sleeves and balaclavas beneath their helmets in a bid to keep warm during the seventh coldest game the league has ever seen. One player who persisted with short sleeves was 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who masterminded his team's 23-20 victory. Jim Harbaugh, coach of the San Francisco 49ers, was so concerned by the cold that he had asked Kaepernick, a Wisconsin native and childhood Packers fan, three times to wear more weather appropriate gear. "I'm a little hardheaded at times," Kaepernick, who also played without gloves, told reporters. "I played in cold-weather games before. I feel it's more mental than anything." Lambeau Field is something of an ice fortress when it comes to the NFL's chilliest contests. The Packers' 1967 meeting with the Dallas Cowboys, dubbed the "Ice Bowl" was played despite the temperature dropping as low as minus 14 -- with the wind making it feel like minus 48 -- securing its title as the coldest game in NFL history.

By . James Nye . The Obama administration believes there is a new leaker of compromising national security secrets who could potentially compound the embarrassment caused by NSA contractor Edward Snowden. The federal government has come to this conclusion after a new story was published on Tuesday morning by The Intercept, the site launched by Glenn Greenwald, the journalist who first brought the Snowden leaks to public attention. According to CNN, the proof lies in documents obtained for the article about US government surveillance of suspected terrorists which is dated from August 2013 - months after Snowden escaped first to Hong Kong and then to Russia to escape spying charges. Stunning leaks: Journalist Glenn Greenwald (left) has fanned the flames that he is working with a new source in addition to Edward Snowden (right) who infamously fed information on NSA spying to Greenwald and The Guardian newspaper last year . Indeed, Rio-based Greenwald, who left the Guardian last year to launch The Intercept with the backing of eBay founder, billionaire, Pierre Omidyar, has fanned the flames by suggesting there is indeed another leaker. The nightmare news for the Obama administration comes as a report in The Intercept highlights the one million names collected on the database called the Terrorist Identities Datamart Environment (TIDE). It claims that as part of this data, there is one watchlist called the Terrorist Screening Database which contains 680,000 names, of which only a fraction are Americans. However, it also claims that 40 percent of those on the list have no affiliation at all to terrorist groups. In . addition, the list has basically doubled since the underwear bomber . plot to destroy a Detroit-bound airliner on Christmas Day in 2009. Concern: President Barack Obama and his administration have become convinced there is a second source according to CNN . TIDE: The documents printe in The Intercept date from August 2013 - months after Snowden fled the United States . The justification for this is that the would-be bomber, Umar Farouk Abdulmuttalab was not on any watchlists at the time that could have had a chance of preventing the attack. A spokesperson for the Office of the Director of National Intelligence declined any comment on the CNN report on Tuesday. In addition to The Intercept's report, two recent article in the German press have reported on US national security and spying issues without citing Snowden - adding to the theory that the notorious whistleblower is not the only leak. 'That's particularly notable given that virtually every other article using Snowden documents - including der Spiegel - specifically identified him as the source,' Greenwald said in an email to The Hill last month.

(CNN) -- When Tad Agoglia started to clean up the mess caused by Hurricane Katrina, he couldn't help thinking he was weeks behind schedule. It was two months after the storm, and his crane operating company had just been hired to help in Louisiana. "I wondered what it would have been like if I had been there on day one," Agoglia said. Frustrated by the kind of bureaucratic red tape that delayed aid after Katrina, Agoglia started the First Response Team of America, a mobile, "24-hour-a-day firehouse" that provides free emergency aid within hours of a catastrophe. Since 2007, the nonprofit group has responded to many of the country's worst natural disasters, including floods in Rhode Island and Tennessee and tornadoes in Alabama and Mississippi. Today, Agoglia finds himself back in Louisiana. But this time he's dealing with a manmade catastrophe: the Gulf Coast oil spill. "This is a different kind of disaster," said Agoglia, one of three CNN Heroes featured in a recent TV special, "CNN Heroes: Coming Back from Katrina." "When a hurricane comes in, it can be cleaned up. Oil is not that easily cleaned up. Oil could stay around for decades." The First Response Team has spent the past two months setting up dams and using specialized equipment to vacuum oil from Louisiana's barrier islands. "I remember clearly the first day the oil reached the beaches of Grand Isle, where we were serving," Agoglia said. "And it was a very emotional response ... to seeing these beautiful beaches and these beautiful animals covered in oil. And the only thing I can explain is that I felt very patriotic. I felt like, this is our land, this is our soil, this is our beaches, our wildlife, and it was being destroyed and contaminated. It was sad to see in person." Agoglia said the spill has also delivered a devastating blow to a community still reeling from Katrina. "You're dealing with people that have already lost everything -- everything," Agoglia said. "They had nothing left but each other basically to begin with. And now, only a short few years later, their livelihoods are being threatened." Phasing out the FEMA trailers . Many families in Louisiana are still living in trailers that were provided after Katrina by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Liz McCartney is trying to change that. McCartney and her boyfriend, Zack Rosenburg, started the nonprofit St. Bernard Project in 2006. "Our goal is to get those last 1,000 families out of FEMA trailers and back into their homes," said McCartney, who was voted CNN Hero of the Year in 2008. The St. Bernard Project, based in St. Bernard Parish, Louisiana, rebuilds damaged houses with the help of volunteers and skilled supervisors. McCartney says it costs, on average, about $12,000 to turn a gutted home into a livable one. "To date, we've done just about 300 houses," she said. "We've got more than 50 under construction." The St. Bernard Project has also opened up a mental health clinic in its office for those struggling to cope with the Katrina and oil spill aftermath. "We decided we couldn't sit by and not do anything [about the spill]," McCartney said. "So we've launched our oil spill response that is focusing primarily on providing mental health services to people in the fishing communities." Focusing on children . Another CNN Hero, Derrick Tabb, is helping to shape Louisiana's future with his after-school music program, The Roots of Music. Headquartered in New Orleans' French Quarter, the Roots of Music provides free instruments and tutoring to more than 100 students between the ages of 9 and 14. The idea is to connect children to the city's rich musical tradition while keeping them off its dangerous streets. "We have got a lot done in New Orleans, but we have a lot more to do, especially when it comes down to the kids," Tabb said. "I think we have to focus on them a little a bit more, what's going on in their lives and what's catching their attention and what's keeping their attention." The Roots of Music caught the attention of actor Tim Robbins, who donated money to its cause and helped organize a benefit concert in May. "This organization has a goal of taking someone in middle school and putting them on the road to a college education, self-confidence and leadership," Robbins said. The program is so popular that Tabb has had to freeze applications for the time being. But he said he has been approached about possibly turning the Roots of Music into a charter school. "If I take 500, 600 kids in the program, I might as well take them in a school," he said. "They can be with me more than just part of the day. You have more interaction with those kids, and you can start to [know] the kids more and really start to help them out in the areas they need help in." While he acknowledges that much work still needs to be done in New Orleans, Tabb says he is hopeful about the future. And he is proud at how his city has bounced back from Katrina. "New Orleans has been a model city as far as recovery," he said. "It's really shown everybody how to pull together and make things work with little resources."

Kevin Pietersen looks out towards the pitch at the MCG after arriving in Melbourne on Monday morning . Pietersen smiles during a press conference ahead of his appearance in the Twenty20 Big Bash League . South African-born Pietersen, 34, said 'I know I still have four or five years left. Whether I just want to play T20 though, is another thing. 'The next six months, with the changes happening in England, (it) could be interesting,' Pietersen also added he still has goals: 'I have 8,300 (Test) runs - I'd love to get 10,000. 'I'd love to beat Australia again ... last time, we got hammered. That doesn't sit well. I'm not a player who likes being hammered, I'm a player who plays to win.' Pietersen, who will play for the Melbourne Stars, speaks to Australian reporters on Monday morning . Pietersen leaves the field after being bowled out by Australia's Mitchell Johnson at the MCG last year . Pietersen said his enforced break from Test cricket had allowed him to recover fully from a chronic knee injury. 'I should have had a microfracture before the double Ashes last year,' he said. 'But I was flying around this country getting injected by every single doctor to try to get myself through. 'Having not played Test cricket since January, my body has felt a hell of a lot better. I'm feeling good - ready to go.'

A young teenage boy, who was rushed to hospital in a serious condition after collapsing from a head knock during a rugby league game on Saturday, is now in a stable condition. The 13-year-old, playing for the Macarthur Saints, collided heads with an opposing player and left the field for treatment, but was later allowed to resume play in the match with Campbelltown, south west of Sydney. When he returned to the field he then suffered an elbow knock to the head and collapsed. The teenager was flown by helicopter to the Westmead Children's Hospital where a spokesperson told MailOnline he remained in a stable but serious condition. A 132-year-old was rushed to hospital on Saturday after suffering a head knock at a rugby league fixture . But the boy's condition improved overnight and he is now in a stable condition. The incident follows a series of serious injuries involving school-aged boys playing contact sport in NSW. Year 11 student Tyler Horton suffered a head injury in a match between Bathurst High School and Dubbo College, in the state's central west, on Thursday. Tyler, 16, was flown to the Children's Hospital at Westmead where he remains in an induced coma. Another player Curtis Landers, who played for the Forster-Tuncurry Hawks, was left paralysed by a horror tackle that fractured his c2 and c3 vertebrae. Club president Aaron Temple said he faced an uphill battled to recovery. 'He's looking at 12 months in hospital,' he told MailOnline. Curtis is making small steps towards getting better, and is now swallowing and eating ice cream on his own as he recovers. He has also started gym sessions and his arms and legs are improving.

(CNN) -- Somalian supermodel Waris Dirie has graced the pages of glossy magazines and starred opposite 007 as a Bond Girl. Face for change: Dirie is a tireless campaigner against FGM. But her glamorous appearances on catwalks and in magazines and films belies the personal battles Dirie has had to overcome. Dirie is a leading voice against forced circumcision and female genital mutilation (FGM) and struggled to overcome her own circumcision at the age of five. The forthcoming film, "Desert Flower", based on her biography, tells her story. Yet it is through her charitable foundation that Dirie hopes that the practice still common in traditions in parts of Africa, the Middle East, South American and Asia will not create more cases similar to her own. Growing up with a nomadic family in Somalia she was one of 12 children. She fled to the London, where one of her uncles was working in the Somali embassy, to avoid an arranged marriage with an older man. She was just 13-years-old at the time. After working as a housemaid and in a McDonald's restaurant she was spotted by chance by fashion photographer Terrance Donovan and became the covergirl for the 1987 Pirelli calendar. Becoming the face of beauty products and design houses, her successful modeling career has given her a life far removed from her childhood. Yet for Dirie more importantly it has created a platform to campaign against FGM. In 2002 she created the Waris Dirie Foundation and has been given a number of honors in recognition of her work.

Germaine Greer has claimed  that women are worse off than ever because of the proliferation of  online pornography and the torrent of abuse they have to endure on social media such as Twitter. The sites have become a forum for ‘the loathing of women’, says Greer, whose ground-breaking book The Female Eunuch revolutionised feminist thinking in the 1970s. ‘Liberation hasn’t happened, even sexual liberation didn’t happen,’ she argues. ‘What happened was that commercial pornography was  liberated, fantasy was liberated, but people weren’t liberated.’ The Australian academic delivers her damning verdict in a BBC TV documentary - Blurred Lines: The New Battle Of The Sexes - which looks at the threats of rape and violence directed towards women online as well as the ‘objectification’ of women in violent computer games and sexually explicit pop videos. Greer, 75, tells presenter Kirsty Wark: ‘Things have got a lot worse for women since I wrote The  Female Eunuch.’ She claims the abuse directed at some women online is proof that men are more intolerant of women than ever before. ‘I never thought once you had social media there would become this terrible grab bag of loathing of women,’ she says. ‘Men are now more aware of women because women keep pushing themselves in. ‘Nowadays women expect to share men’s lives, they want to do the same work, they want to play the same games, they want to have the same social life, and I think it’s driving men nuts. And the result would seem to me  to be that men are even  less tolerant of women than they were before. ‘Now if men have always needed women to be in a subservient, filial, ancillary position, when they [women] stand up and call attention to themselves, it produces reactions which are difficult to manage.’ Several high-profile women have suffered abuse at the hands of online ‘trolls’. The author and feminist Caroline Criado-Perez was targeted after  she launched a petition calling for female historical figures to be represented on banknotes. Used to be better: Greer is pictured above in 1974 - before the online 'grab bag of loathing of women' The campaign was a success and the Bank of England announced  that from 2017, Jane Austen would be on a new £10 note. But the campaigner found herself inundated with highly personal abuse and threats. At one stage she was receiving 50 threats an hour, and she was so affected that she lost half a stone  in two days. Professor Mary Beard was targeted in a similar manner after she spoke out about immigration on BBC’s Question Time last year. The historian had to contend with highly personal comments about her appearance as well as a picture of her face with female genitalia superimposed on it. Prof Beard tells the documentary that such attacks will not deter her from speaking out. She said: ‘You do have to steel yourself a little bit because it is quite affecting when you get this stuff. But most of all it is infuriating. My views on anything are irrelevant to the size and shape of my vagina, I’m sorry.’ Prof Beard is worried, though,  that such campaigns may deter other women from entering ‘the public sphere’. She said: ‘I have decided I am going to face the music. But there must be loads of women who think, that is not what I want. ‘I don’t want that kind of rubbish and it’s vile. It really is vile. Why would anyone bother to do this unless they were incredibly determined? It is very bad for women’s participation in the public sphere.’
Academic said that online sphere is a 'grab bag of loathing of women' Greer, who wrote The Female Eunuch in the 1970s, says it is worse now . Says online abuse of women shows men are less tolerant than ever . Spoke in upcoming documentary, also featuring Professor Mary Beard . Blurred Lines: The New Battle  Of The Sexes, presented by Kirsty Wark, is on BBC2 on May 8.

The terrible fate of Earth after a nuclear war has been mapped out using computer models for the first time. Worldwide famine, deadly frosts, global ozone losses of up to 50 per cent and more would greet any inhabitants of the planet still remaining after a nuclear conflict. And the researchers hope their study of what they call a relatively 'small' nuclear war will serve as a deterrent against such weapons being used by any nation in the future. Scroll down for video . Researchers based in Colorado have studied the effects of a nuclear conflict on Earth. They used climate models to predict what would become of the planet after the detonation of 100 'small' nuclear warheads, and conclude there would be global devastation. Pictured is an atomic weapon test in the 1950s . The unnerving consequences were laid out in a paper called ‘Multidecadal global cooling and unprecedented ozone loss following a regional nuclear conflict.’ Year 0 . Five megatons of black carbon released into the atmosphere, which absorbs sunlight and begins to cool the planet. Black carbon rain also kills millions. Year 1 . Average surface temperature drops by 1°C (2°F). Year 2 . Crop growing season is shortened by 10 to 40 days. Year 5 . Earth is an average of 1.5°C (3°F) colder than the present day, colder than it has been in 1,000 years. There is also nine per cent less rainfall. The ozone is also up to 25 per cent thinner, increasing UV rays on Earth. Year 10 . Ozone recovers slightly to just 8 per cent less than modern day. Year 20 . Planet warms slightly to 0.5°C (1°F) lower than the present day. Year 26 . Rainfall increases to about 4.5 per cent less than today. In it the researchers looked at the outcome of a ‘limited, regional nuclear war between India and Pakistan in which each side detonates 50 15-kiloton weapons.’ They then used computer models to examine the impact on the planet and its environment - and it makes for grim reading. The immediate result of 100 nuclear weapons roughly the size of those dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki being detonated would be the release of five megatons of black carbon into the atmosphere. Black carbon, not too dissimilar to soot, would block out the sun and can also be fatal to humans. Following a spell of black carbon rain, a deadly weather front that would devastate what remained of humanity following the nuclear war, the temperature of Earth would begin to drop. After a year the temperature would fall by 1°C (2°F), while after five it would be 1.5°C (3°F) cooler than it is now. About 20 years after the conflict it would warm again to just 0.5°C (1°F) below today’s temperature. Accompanying what the researchers call ‘the coldest average surface temperatures in the last 1,000 years’ would be a huge loss in ozone levels. They say that global ozone losses of 20 to 50 per cent would occur over populated areas, ‘levels unprecedented in human history’. The immediate result of 100 nuclear weapons being detonated would be the release of five megatons of black carbon (shown) into the atmosphere, say researchers. Black carbon, not too dissimilar to soot and released from the burning of things such as fossil fuels, would block out the sun and can also be fatal to humans . The drop in temperature would produce ‘killing frosts’ that reduce the world’s growing season by 10 to 40 days. Meanwhile the eradication of up to half of the ozone would increase UV rays in some locations by as much as 80 per cent, raising the chance of developing skin cancer for large swathes of humanity. Combined with the global cooling, this ‘would put significant pressures on global food supplies and could trigger a global nuclear famine.’ The planet’s falling temperature would also decrease the amount of rainfall. Five years after the conflict Earth would see 9 per cent less rain, while 26 years after the war there would still be 4.5 per cent less rain. The result of all this would be devastation and ultimately death for hundreds of millions, and perhaps billions. But the researchers hope that their example of a relatively small nuclear war between two modestly armed nuclear nations, India and Pakistan, will encourage superpowers such as the U.S. and Russia to discuss nuclear disarmament. ‘Knowledge of the impacts of 100 small nuclear weapons should motivate the elimination of more than 17,000 nuclear weapons that exist today,’ they write. In their paper the researchers conclude humanity would suffer worldwide famine, deadly frosts and huge ozone losses. The results would be the death of hundreds of millions or billions. Pictured is the abandoned city of Prypiat, which is still experiencing the negative effects of nuclear fallout from Chernobyl .

Richard Pease, 50, was jailed for eight months for being in charge of a hovercraft while drunk . A hovercraft pilot has been jailed today for being in charge of his passenger vessel while drunk, causing it to have near misses with a tanker and a busy pier. Richard Pease, of Cowes, Isle of Wight, pleaded guilty at a previous hearing to a charge of being master of a hovercraft having consumed excess alcohol under the Railways and Transport Safety Act 2003. The court heard Pease collapsed at the controls as he failed to steer the craft on to its landing pad at Ryde. Sunyana Sharma, prosecuting, told Isle of Wight Crown Court that the 50-year-old gave a breath test six hours after the incident on June 22 this year which gave a reading of 96mg of alcohol in 100 ml of breath - the drink-drive limit is 35mg. The defendant, who has 18 years' experience as a hovercraft pilot, told police that he had been drinking from a bottle which he had not realised contained alcohol in a bid to keep cool and hydrated during two journeys which carried a total of more than 130 people. But the court heard the defendant accepted that once he realised the bottle contained alcohol, he continued to drink from it. Sentencing Pease, Judge Susan Evans QC said: 'It's tragic that someone of your standing and with such an impressive past career should have destroyed all of that in one day. 'It was an appalling breach of your duty. You put yourself in a condition where you were unable to discharge your duty as pilot of a hovercraft and your responsibilities to your passengers, the crew and the other users of the Solent. 'Your actions could have resulted in tragedy but fortunately they did not.' Miss Sharma described how Pease had driven the Hovertravel craft Freedom 90 from Ryde to Southsea, Hampshire, with 95 passengers on board when it failed to reach the landing pad. He then piloted the same craft back across the Solent with 36 passengers on board when his assistant, handling agent John Randles, realised Pease had slowed down in the path of a tanker heading towards Southampton. Mr Sharma said: 'What is normal procedure, if safe to do so, the hovercraft will cross in front of of the tanker and not reduce the speed. Scroll down for video . 'It was noted the defendant did reduce his speed when coming across the front of the tanker, as a result of that observation, he (Mr Randles) asked the defendant if he had noticed the tanker to which he replied 'Yes'. 'At that point the defendant increased his speed and he averted a potential incident.' Miss Sharma then described how Pease started to lose control of the craft as it arrived at Ryde, missing the landing pad and headed towards Ryde Pier. She said that Pease collapsed at the controls and Mr Randles had to take urgent action to take control of the craft. Miss Sharma said: . 'As he was making the approach he failed to take the normal position on the landing pad so the craft would be landed safely. Pease was responsible for operating a Hovercraft like this one on a five-mile journey from Portsmouth to Ryde . Pease narrowly missed busy pier, seen in the background, and then failed to steer into the landing pad at Ryde . 'Ryde Pier is a traditional wooden pier, it carries a passenger train and vehicles and during summer it's very, very busy. 'As the landing was being made, Mr Randles asked the defendant if he was OK, to which the defendant replied that he was. 'The handling agent pointed out to the defendant he wasn't in line with pad as he was supposed to be. The defendant slightly adjusted the control but as he went to take control of the throttle, it appeared his hand slipped, he missed the control and he went to reach for it again. 'Unfortunately the adjustment made wasn't enough and the hovercraft was heading towards the pier rather than towards the pad. Hovertravel provides the fastest way to cross the Solent with a journey of less than 10 minutes. The company operates two hovercrafts and has carried more than 26 million passengers since it opened in 1965. Hovertravel is the world's longest-running commercial hovercraft service and is the only scheduled passenger service in Europe. Modern hovercraft were developed in the 1950s by British inventor Sir Christopher Cockerell. They float on a cushion of air allowing them to travel over water and flat land surfaces. The steering of the craft is controlled by rudders, which are located in the slipstream behind each propeller. The captain can also use the propellers to change the direction of the craft. 'Once again the defendant was asked if he was ok, at that point there was no positive response. 'Upon a further question being asked, it was noticed the defendant had drooped and he had gone limp in the chair. 'As there was no response from the defendant, Mr Randles took immediate action and taking control of the hovercraft he landed it safely.' The court was shown CCTV footage showing the hovercraft weaving as it arrived at Ryde and coming to a halt as it headed in the wrong direction away from the landing pad and towards Ryde Pier. The court was told it was at this point that Mr Randles took over the controls and brought it to safety before another pilot came on board to bring it to the landing pad. Pease was taken to hospital by paramedics who noticed his speech was slurred and he was having 'alcohol sweats' and six hours after the crossing, he gave the positive breath test. Judge Evans said: 'Common sense says he didn't drink anything in the hospital and he must have been significantly more affected when he left the craft.' Describing Pease's actions as a 'grave dereliction of duty', Miss Sharma added: 'It's perhaps fortunate there was no serious injury or death from this incident.' Neil Fitzgibben, defending, said that Pease, a married father of two teenage sons, was of impeccable character and with 14,000 hours in charge of a hovercraft, he was Hovertravel's most experienced pilot. Pease collapsed at the controls before reaching Ryde. Pictured, the Hovertravel terminal at Ryde, Isle of Wight . He described how his client had been operating the hovercraft that day in hot conditions in the cabin and had felt unwell and dehydrated. In his lunch break at the pilots' mess in Ryde, he had found an opened bottle of water and had poured orange squash into it to drink when he went back on board to keep himself hydrated, Mr Fitzgibben said. He continued: 'The bottle is in the pilot's mess, it's not unusual for bottles and lost property to make its way into the pilots' mess room. He took the bottle on board. 'The Isle of Wight Festival had only finished a week previously, how it found its way into the mess is not known. 'He was consuming something he didn't know what it was, he should have been aware of what had been consumed. 'Mr Pease is as shocked and surprised as anyone that he was over the limit and secondly by so much.' He added: 'He had in the past sought help for dependency on alcohol when he was a much younger man in the Merchant Navy but I understand he had come to terms with that many years ago.' Mr Fitzgibben continued: 'The effect of what happened that day has brought about a severe bout of depression. He is a man consumed with remorse for what happened.' After the hearing, Miss Sharma confirmed that the sentence did not prohibit him from getting behind the wheel of a car. A Hovertravel spokesman said:'Throughout the court proceedings Hovertravel has co-operated fully with the Maritime and Coastguard Agency's investigation. 'Following sentencing today, we can now conclude our own investigation. 'Hovertravel is fully committed to the health and safety of passengers and staff, with a comprehensive set of robust policies and a zero tolerance to alcohol and drugs all endorsed by the MCA.' Neil Cunningham, Maritime and Coastguard Agency Enforcement Officer, said: 'The master of any vessel has a duty of care to their crew and passengers, so to carry out this responsibility whilst under the influence of alcohol is totally irresponsible. 'Mr Pease was clearly not in any fit state to carry out his duties safely. It is incredibly fortunate that no-one was hurt in this case. 'I would like to take this opportunity to praise the quick thinking of a crew member on board the Hovercraft Freedom 90 for safely bringing the craft to a stop in Ryde and also to thank Hovertravel for its cooperation and assistance throughout this investigation.'

(Mashable) -- Google has announced a major algorithmic change to its search engine, subtle in nature and perhaps unnoticeable to many users, but one that should dramatically improve the quality of Google's search results. With this move, Google is targeting content farms -- a common name for low quality sites whose main goal is to attract search traffic by piling up (mostly) useless content, usually by either producing large amounts of low-quality text or by copying it from websites with original content. Google does not go into details of the change which should impact 11.8 percent of Google's queries (currently only in the U.S., with plans to roll it out elsewhere over time), but it does say that it will affect the ranking of many sites on the web. "This update is designed to reduce rankings for low-quality sites -- sites which are low-value add for users, copy content from other websites or sites that are just not very useful. At the same time, it will provide better rankings for high-quality sites -- sites with original content and information such as research, in-depth reports, thoughtful analysis and so on," explain Googlers Amit Singhal and Matt Cuttsin a blog post. While the change will surely have many website owners up in arms, complaining that their website was unfairly ranked lower than before (we're sure that in some cases they will be right), it's a very welcome one. The popularity of Google's search engine is still second to none, but Google has been plagued by black hat SEO practices and content farms for a while now, with thecomplaints from users slowly mounting over time. If Google manages to put an end to content farms or at least significantly reduce their influence in search results, it will be an important step in regaining the trust of its millions of users. © 2011 MASHABLE.com.

(CNN) -- Internet and cell phone coverage were restored Saturday to most Syrian provinces, according to the opposition Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, two days after a blackout shut down virtually all Internet service in the country. Residents in the capital, Damascus, told CNN via Skype that their Internet and cell phone services were working again. Syria's Internet and phone systems blacked out Thursday. A Syrian government information minister said Friday that "terrorists" -- which is how the Assad regime refers to rebels in a bloody, ongoing civil war -- cut the cable, knocking out Web communication with other countries. "All the Internet connections and communications lines are back to work in Damascus and its suburbs, after the technicians teams managed to fix the malfunction that led to the outage for two days," an anchor on state-run TV said Saturday. The network reported there was a malfunction in the main grid in the suburbs of Damascus. Rebels have routinely used the Web to transmit images of the civil war, including what they claim have been military attacks by the Assad regime on civilians. However, a leading Web security firm said the outage was almost certainly the work of the Syrian government. Matthew Prince, CEO of CloudFlare, said his firm's investigations showed that all four Internet cables linking Syria to the outside world would have had to been cut simultaneously for a whole country outage to occur. The blackout forced fighters to rely on radio communication, which they say is easier for the Syrian government to tap. The U.S. Embassy in Damascus and expat opposition supporters urged people to use "Speak to Tweet," a service which allows users to leave an audio message which is tweeted out as a link for people to click on and play. However, the phone service outage likely made it difficult to use. As a result of the Internet shutdown, the flood of daily video images of fighting and decimation dried up. Rebel leaders accused the government of creating the blackout to hide its mass killings from the outside world. At least 165 people have been killed Saturday across Syria, including 60 in Damascus and its suburbs, according to the Local Coordination Committees of Syria, a network of opposition activists. At least eight people were killed when a car bomb exploded in the northern city of Reqqah, said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. Two other car bombs went off in Damascus, the group said. No casualties were reported in those attacks. Meanwhile, in a continued attempt to weaken President Bashar al-Assad's aerial strength, Syria's rebel fighters say they have tightened their grip on territory near Damascus International Airport. Rebels have taken control of a crescent shaped swath of land about 20 kilometers long just north and east of the main road leading to the airport, said a revolutionary council for the Damascus area. The airport is "the gate of death that supplies the regime in Damascus and its suburbs with more tools to kill the Syrian people," said Abu Eyaad, spokesman to the Revolutionary Military Council in Damascus and its Suburbs in an audio message posted late Friday. Although rebel forces have not taken the airport, they have shut down its operations, claimed Abu Eyaad, which is his nom de guerre. "Our main goal is to sap the strength of the regime's air force and supplies." He accused Russia and Iran of delivering arms to Assad's army via the airport. The government rejected the rebels' claim on state-run TV on a banner reading, "Damascus airport is functioning normally, and the highway to the airport is fully secure." The network aired footage of the airport, along with interviews of employees and passengers, to show that operations were normal. The captured swath stretches from the town of Harran Al-Awameed, almost within a mile of the airport, up to the Damascus suburb of Deir Asafeer and includes a captured military helicopter airport and a road to connect them all, the military council said. Despite government bombardments, which have rained death and destruction indiscriminately from above for months upon rebel stronghold neighborhoods, revolutionary fighters have gained ground. They have captured military bases, driving out regular army troops, seizing their heavy weaponry and turning it back on them -- including anti-aircraft guns and missiles. In the last week, rebels claim to have shot down one plane and two helicopters in Syria's north. CNN's Arwa Damon went to the crash site of the plane Wednesday, and saw chunks of metal being carted off by locals. U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Friday called for ongoing support of the opposition's "current momentum" via non-military aid to Syrian rebels in a speech in Washington. The United States and many of its allies have thrown their support behind the rebel movement and openly advocate the overthrow of Assad's government. U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon urged the international community Friday, "in particular the Security Council," to pull together. Council members China and Russia, which are allies of Assad, are at loggerheads over the handling of the crisis with the other permanent members France, Britain and the United States, which oppose Assad. Ban said he would soon visit Syrian refugees who have fled over the borders to neighboring countries. More than 42,000 people have died in the Syrian conflict since the uprising began in March 2011, according to opposition activists. CNN cannot confirm claims by the government or the opposition because of government restrictions that prevent journalists from reporting freely within Syria. Samira Said, Ben Brumfield, Yousuf Basil and Pierre Meilhan contributed to this report.

A $100,000 reward has been offered to help solve the case of a teenage girl who disappeared in a disturbing abduction 17 years ago. Jessica Small, who was 15 at the time, was abducted from Bathurst in central west NSW on October 26, 1997. The teenager and her best friend, Vanessa Conlan, were leaving an amusement arcade in Bathurst at midnight when a man in a white car approached them and offered them a lift. Jessica Small, who was 15 at the time, was abducted from Bathurst in central west NSW on October 26, 1997 . The man drove the girls in his VK Holden Commodore sedan a short distance before turning his headlights off and attacking them on a deserted rural road. Vanessa managed to escape and ran to a nearby home thinking Jessica was right behind her. But Jessica has not been seen since. Homicide Squad commander Superintendent Mick Willing said on Friday investigators believe Jessica was murdered. 'It's been almost two decades and this was a 15-year-old girl who vanished off the street of a NSW city,' he said. Supt Willing believes there are people who know what happened to Jessica. 'I implore these people to come forward and tell us what they know.' Police have released this image of a white VK Holden Commodore sedan, which is similar to the one they believe was involved in Jessica's kidnapping . The teenager and her best friend, Vanessa Conlan, were leaving an amusement arcade in Bathurst at midnight when a man in a white car approached them and offered them a lift . The current investigation has been thwarted by serious failings by Bathurst police back when Jessica initially disappeared. At an inquest into Jessica's disappearance last year, NSW deputy state Coroner Sharon Freund found there were serious inadequacies that had complicated the investigation. Local police did not initially believe Vanessa's version of events. They failed to properly interview witnesses or potential witnesses that could have uncovered crucial evidence. Detective Sergeant Peter Smith from the NSW Homicide Squad took on the cold case in 2007 and has conducted extensive inquiries into Jessica’s disappearance in recent years both in NSW and interstate. In an interview with 60 Minutes last year, Mr Smith said one of the key witnesses who had initially been ignored by local detectives had a strange conversation with a man who matched the description Vanessa gave of her attacker. Homicide Squad commander Superintendent Mick Willing said on Friday investigators believe Jessica was murdered . '(He said) an adult male had been in the amusement centre asking about Jessica and actually pointed her out and said, “She looks like she's up for a good time, who is that?” And then, during that conversation, he made mention that he was an employee of the Oberon Timber Mill,' he told the program. 'I just couldn't believe that no-one had asked him about that before. It's just so important.' The investigation team interviewed 400 men throughout 2011 who had worked at the Oberon Timber Mill at the time Jessica went missing. They narrowed the list down to two and they were listed as persons of interest in the inquest into Jessica's disappearance. '(One) had access to a white VK Holden Commodore with holes in the passenger foot well. The car that the girls get into on the night, Vanessa sits in the front seat. And as it's driving along, Vanessa notices there's holes in the front passenger foot well,' he said. 'That's pretty explicit. It matches acutely Vanessa's description.' The coroner found there was no direct evidence linking the two persons of interest to the girl's abduction but said there was no evidence to eliminate them either. Vanessa, now 30, managed to escape and ran to a nearby home for help but police did not initially believe her version of events and failed to properly interview witnesses or potential witnesses . Jessica's mother, Ricki Small, said she still feels hurt and angry by the lack of police investigation at the time her daughter went missing . Eight months after Jessica vanished, two forestry workers found a pair of girl's underwear, a bottle of bleach and a blanket covered in blood in bushland 75km east of Bathurst. Police did not interview the person who found the items and the potential evidence wasn't DNA tested. It was later destroyed by local police. Jessica's mother, Ricki Small, wasn't told and said she still feels let down by the police. 'I would've been in the forest scratching the dirt, looking for her, physically,' Ms Small told 60 Minutes. 'I'm hurt and I'm angry. The treatment by… local detective who were on the case was just wrong. It was abominable. 'We haven't found her. 17 years and we haven't found her. 'All I can say honestly is that I hope things were over for her quickly... My head's entertained the ideas of her being locked up for days, or held for days or tortured or… I hate to go there. Jessica Small was abducted from Bathurst, west of Sydney, alongside Vanessa Conlan in 1997 and while Vanessa managed to escape, her best friend has not been seen since .

By . Jennifer Smith . PUBLISHED: . 07:42 EST, 25 August 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 10:33 EST, 25 August 2013 . Having wanted a piglet her whole life, Catherine Dawes was thrilled to buy what she thought was a micro-pig for her 50th birthday. After paying over £500 for the tiny animal, Ms Dawes from Blantyre, Lanarkshire, never expected to see it grow bigger than a small dog. But three years later, pet pig Dudley weighs over 20 stone, and measures 5ft 8in from nose to curly tail. When Mrs Dawes bought Dudley she didn't expect him to grow past two stone . Ms Dawes and her partner, Colin, travelled to Nottingham to pick up Dudley after a breeder had assured them he was what they were looking for. 'I've loved pigs since I was young and always said I was going to get one. So when I spotted an advert for micro pigs, I thought that would be perfect, he could live with us like a dog,' said Ms Dawes. Dudley is fully house trained and enjoys cuddling up to watch TV with his owner . Micro pigs are fully grown at two years old and weigh just two stone. So as Dudley continued to get bigger and bigger, it didn't take long for Ms Dawes to realise she'd been duped by the breeder. 'When we picked him up he was about nine weeks old and a bit bigger than I was expecting, but we saw his mother and she was pretty small. Obviously the dad must have been a lot bigger! Dudley as a piglet: After Ms Dawes bought the pig as a 50th birthday treat, she thought he would remain a small size forever. But as time went on she began to realise he wasn't a micro pig after all . 'We thought Dudley had reached full-size when he got level with the coffee table, but he kept getting bigger. 'Now, he comes up to my waist! I'm not sure of his exact weight but he must be at least 20 stone. 'He's certainly heavy. He stood on my toe the other week and it was black and blue! 'At first we were shocked by his growth, but we're used to it now. "We did contact the breeder when we realised he wasn't 'micro' but we never got a response. 'It's probably just as well because by then we were too attached to part with him. Dudley, who is fully house trained, stays in the house during the day and sleeps in a coal shed in the garden at night, complete with a straw bed and heat lamp. Once she realised Dudley wasn't a micro pig after all, Ms Dawes contacted the dishonest breeder but received no response . Dexter, the household dog, has been feeling left out as Dudley attracts so much attention when stood out in the front garden . The pampered pig enjoys 'cuddling in and lying in front of the TV'. His favourite thing to eat are bananas, but he enjoys scoffing all types of fruit and veg. Dudley has made an unlikely friend in Dexter, the family's bichon frise. 'He's fully house trained, can give you a trotter when you ask and closes doors behind him. Though Ms Dawes and her Dexter are used to her unusual companion, Dudley still causes quite a stir around town. 'People think we're crazy having a huge pig in the house, but everyone who meets Dudley is smitten. Despite his surprising growth, Dudley is part of the family says Ms Dawes . 'We used to put him out in the front garden, but we'd have lines of school buses stopping outside and cars nearly crashing as the drivers were too busy looking at this huge pig running around,' she laughed. 'Now, he sticks to the back - but we still have people asking if they can meet our pet pig. 'Most have heard he loves bananas and bring a bunch along. 'The only thing we need to be wary of is shoelaces. He likes to chew them so you might end up with him accidentally nibbling your leg. 'But other than that he's a big friendly giant.'
Owners thought pet piglet wouldn't grow bigger than two stone . Dudley is 5ft 8in from head to tail and is only three . House trained pet enjoys watching TV and eating bananas .

Lassie the dog nuzzled and licked Able Seaman John Cowan - who was presumed dead following an attack off Lyme Regis, Dorset, in the First World War - until he stirred and was brought back to life . The little-known tale of a dog named Lassie who brought a sailor back to life by licking his face during the First World War has emerged 100 years later. The bodies of seven sailors had been laid out in the cellar of a port-side pub in Lyme Regis, Dorset, following a German torpedo attack on a British battleship in the English Channel on New Year's Eve, 1914. All were presumed dead until the landlord's rough-haired collie dog entered the basement and sat alongside the motionless body of one sailor, Able Seaman John Cowan. She proceeded to lick his face and nuzzle him for 30 minutes until, amazingly, he began to stir and rescuers rushed to his side. He went on to make a full recovery. The incredible act sounds like it could be a storyline straight from the 1950s TV series Lassie. Some people even believe the Lyme Regis dog provided English author Eric Knight with the inspiration to write his 1938 novel Lassie Come Home, which paved the way for the subsequent TV show and film. However, Lassie aficionados say there is no record of the writer being aware of the story. Now the remarkable story has been revealed in full by the late historian Rodney Legg in his book, Dorset in the First World War, which has been published posthumously. A total of 547 men perished when the battleship HMS Formidable came under attack from an enemy submarine during an exercise in Lyme Bay. About 200 men, including Able Seaman Cowan, survived the blasts from the torpedoes. Two lifeboats were lowered into the water before a loss of power prevented any more being used. While the ship was sinking, the chaplain, the Rev George Brooke Robinson, went below the decks to fetch cigarettes for the men, only to end up drowning. The following day one lifeboat washed up on the beach at Lyme Regis and those on board, who were barely alive, were taken to the nearby Pilot Boat Inn. Landlord Tommy Atkins turned his beer cellar into a makeshift mortuary and the dead, including Seaman Cowan, were placed there before the bodies could be taken away by officials. His dog, a cross-bred collie, had become used to licking the face of Mr Atkins' wife to rouse her from regular epileptic fits. She began to nuzzle the face and hands of Seaman Cowan until he eventually stirred. After recovering from his ordeal, the sailor visited members of staff at the pub and Lassie to thank them for saving his life. David Tucker, the director at the Lyme Regis Museum, said: 'The Formidable was torpedoed 20 miles off Start Point in Devon. The ship was hit at 2am on New Year's Day and then again at 4.40am before it went down. 'There was a crew of almost 800 and some of the survivors were recovered by a fishing boat out of Brixham. 'About 40 men managed to get into a small lifeboat which spent 23 hours in the sea before it reached Lyme Regis. Seven of the men died on board from exposure. 'A local policeman arranged for the survivors to go to the Pilot Boat inn about 50 metres away and they were given dry clothes, brandy and cigarettes. Lassie was a cross-bred collie owned by the landlord of The Pilot Boat (above) in Lyme Regis, Dorset, where sailors were brought back after a torpedo attack off the coast in 1914. Seaman Cowan was presumed dead . Many people believe the tale of the Lyme Regis dog inspired Eric Knight's 1938 novel Lassie Come Home which paved the way for the subsequent TV show and 2005 film (above). However, others dismiss this idea . 'The seven bodies were taken down into the cellar, including that of John Cowan. 'Lassie wouldn't leave Cowan's side and licked him and licked him until he started to show signs of life. 'There are different theories as to where the inspiration for Lassie came and ours is one of those. It is said that when people heard the story of Lassie and what she did to rescue Cowan, they told it again and again.' Author Eric Knight was born in Yorkshire in 1897 and would have been aged 18 at the time of the sinking of HMS Formidable. It means he could have been aware of the incident and potentially could have used the tale in his well-known novel. However, Ace Collins, the American author of the 1993 book Lassie - A Dog's Life maintains it was the heartbreak of Knight witnessing families sell their prized collies to buy food during the Depression of the 1930s that inspired him. He said: 'Eric Knight was inspired by a Depression-era tour of England where he saw things that were so bad people were selling their prized dogs just to raise money to feed their families. 'His own collie, Toots, served as the model for Lassie in the Saturday Evening Post short story that was later expanded into a novel. 'I spoke with his daughter when I did the research and reviewed all of Eric Knight's interviews on the inspiration. 'None of my looks through Knight's notes on the story and later the book is anything mentioned about the Lassie story from Lyme Regis. 'But who knows, maybe, while growing up in England, Eric Knight heard that story.'

(CNN) -- Memo to Carly Rae Jepsen, Frank Ocean, Hunter Hayes, Mumford & Sons, Miguel, the Alabama Shakes and all the other young singers and bands who are nominated for Sunday night's Grammy Awards: . Your real prize -- the most valuable and sustaining award of all -- may not become evident to you until 30 or so years have passed. You will be much older. But -- if you are lucky -- you will still get to be out on the road making music. Many of Sunday's Grammy nominees are enjoying the first wave of big success. It is understandable if they take for granted the packed concert venues and eye-popping paychecks. Those may go away -- the newness of fame, the sold-out houses, the big money. But the joy of being allowed to do what they do will go on. I've been doing some work while staying at a small hotel off a highway in southwestern Florida. One winter day I was reading out on the pool deck, and there were some other people sitting around talking. They weren't young, by anyone's definition. They did not seem like conventional businessmen or businesswomen on the road, or like retirees. There was a sense of nascent energy and contented anticipation in their bearing, of something good waiting for them straight ahead. A look completely devoid of grimness or fretfulness, an afternoon look that said the best part of the day was still to come. I would almost have bet what line of work they were in. I'd seen that look before, many times. I could hear them talking. Yep. The Tokens ("The Lion Sleeps Tonight," a No. 1 hit in 1961). Little Peggy March ("I Will Follow Him," a No. 1 hit in 1963). Little Anthony and the Imperials ("Tears on My Pillow," a top 10 hit in 1958). Major singing stars from an earlier era of popular music, in town for a multi-act show that evening. It is the one sales job worth yearning for -- carrying that battered sample case of memorable music around the country, to unpack in front of a different appreciative audience every night. It's quite a world. I was fortunate enough to learn its ins and outs during the 15 deliriously unlikely years I spent touring the United States singing backup with Jan and Dean ("Surf City," a No. 1 hit in 1963) and all the other great performers with whom we shared stages and dressing rooms and backstage buffets: . Chuck Berry, Martha and the Vandellas, Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard, the Everly Brothers, James Brown, Lesley Gore, Freddy "Boom Boom" Cannon, the Kingsmen, the Drifters, Fabian, the Coasters, Little Eva, the Ventures, Sam the Sham. ... Jukebox names whose fame was once as fresh and electric as that now being savored by Sunday's young Grammy nominees. Decades after that fame is new, the road may not be quite as glamorous, the crowds may not be quite as large. The hours of killing time before riding over to the hall, the putrid vending-machine meals on the run, the way-too-early-in-the-morning vans to the airport -- the dreary parts all become more than worth it when, for an hour or so, the singers can once again personally deliver a bit of happiness to the audiences who still adore their music. Greene: Super Bowl ad revives iconic voice . As the years go by, the whole thing may grow complicated -- band members come and go, they fight and feud, some quit, some die. There are times when it seems you can't tell the players without a scorecard -- the Tokens at the highway hotel were, technically and contractually, Jay Siegel's Tokens (you don't want to know the details). One of their singers (not Jay Siegel -- Jay Traynor) was once Jay of Jay and the Americans, a group that itself is still out on the road in a different configuration with a different Jay (you don't want to know). But overriding all of this is a splendid truism: . Sometimes, if you have one big hit, it can take care of you for the rest of your life. It can be your life. Sunday's young Grammy nominees may not imagine, 30 years down the line, still being on tour. But they -- the fortunate ones -- will come to learn something: . They will grow old, but their hits never will -- once people first fall in love with those songs, the songs will mean something powerful and evocative to them for the rest of their lives. And as long as there are fairground grandstands on summer nights, as long as there are small-town ballparks with stages where the pitcher's mound should be, the singers will get to keep delivering the goods. That is the hopeful news waiting, off in the distance, for those who will win Grammys Sunday, and for those who won't be chosen. On the morning after that pool-deck encounter in Florida I headed out for a walk, and in the parking lot of the hotel I saw one of the Tokens loading his stage clothes into his car. His license plate read: . SHE CRYD . I said to him: . "You sing lead on 'She Cried,' right?" "Every night," he said, and drove off toward the next show. The next show. That's the prize. That's the trophy, right there. The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Bob Greene.
Bob Greene: Grammy nominated acts should remember the real prize comes later in life . He says at a hotel he ran into a group of singing stars from an earlier era, in town for a show . He says the world of post-fame touring less glamorous for acts, but meaningful . Greene: Acts grow old, but their hits never will and to fans, the songs are time-machine .

A man who kept a swath of southeastern Michigan on edge for weeks by shooting at two-dozen vehicles along a busy highway corridor has been sentenced to 18 to 40 years in prison on a combination of terrorism and weapons convictions. Raulie Casteel, a married father, learned his fate on Monday at Livingston County Circuit Court, where a jury in January had found him guilty of terrorism, rejecting his claim that the shootings were the impulsive result of uncontrolled delusions and paranoia. Casteel, 44, is already serving a six-plus-year sentence that stemmed from a related case in neighboring Oakland County. Scroll down for video . Raluie Casteel has been sentenced to 18 to 40 years in prison on a combination of terrorism and weapons convictions after he kept a swath of southeastern Michigan on edge for weeks by shooting at two-dozen vehicles along a busy highway corridor . The judge sentenced him to a minimum of 16 years on the terrorism charge and two additional years on felony firearms charges. The sentence is concurrent with the Oakland County case, and he must serve at least 18 years. Defense lawyer Doug Mullkoff sought a lighter sentence saying his client was ‘certainly a troubled individual’ but not a terrorist. ‘Is Raulie Casteel actually a terrorist - is this really what the Legislature had in mind when it passed the Michigan anti-terrorism act in wake of attacks in 2001?’ asked Mullkoff before the sentencing. ‘I think they were thinking of Osama bin Laden, Timothy McVeigh. Did Raulie Casteel fit into that category? I don't think so. The post-9/11 law passed by Legislature did not contemplate someone who is mentally ill like Mr. Casteel.’ Defense lawyer Doug Mullkoff, left, had sought a lighter sentence for Casteel saying his client was 'certainly a troubled individual' but not a terrorist . Stalking ground: The targets in the 24 reported incidents were mostly cars traveling on roads near Interstate 96 (pictured) Before handing down his sentence, Judge David Reader said he had a mentally ill mother who he cared for up until her death and is ‘very empathetic and sympathetic’ to the condition. Still, he added, terrorism isn't necessarily contingent upon the mental state of the perpetrator. ‘The daily routines and lives of tens of thousands were affected before any motivation was revealed,’ he said, adding ‘that's indeed terror in the opinion of this court.’ During the Livingston County trial, Casteel testified that he shot at the other motorists on Interstate 96 and nearby roads between Lansing and Detroit over a three-day period in October 2012. Testifying in his own defense, Casteel said he was consumed with anxiety while in traffic, most likely from undiagnosed delusions. He said he believed drivers were part of a government conspiracy against him. Casteel said he never thought about the consequences of the shootings, only that he wanted ‘to send a message to back off.’ Casteel, a married father, said he believed drivers were part of a government conspiracy against him . Fearful: Jennifer Kupiec told the court she saw Casteel laugh after firing at her car . Among the victims who attended the sentencing was Jennifer Kupiec, who spoke at a news conference afterward. Kupiec, now 25, said she encountered Casteel on the freeway on Oct. 18, 2012, while driving from Brighton to East Lansing to meet a friend for lunch and buy a sweatshirt from Michigan State University, her alma mater. ‘Someone I didn't know rolled down their window and aimed a nine-millimeter gun at me,’ said Kupiec, who now lives in Chicago. ‘He tried to kill me for no reason and came with milliseconds of getting his wish.’ Kupiec said she pulled over and saw the bullet hole in her car door and believes Casteel was aiming at her rib cage. She said he likely would have succeeded had she not been speeding - which drew some laughs from the law enforcement officials standing around her. Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette said it was a miracle nobody was hurt or killed, but argued that doesn't lessen his belief that the terrorism charge and conviction ‘squarely’ aligned with the state law. Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette, center, said it was a miracle nobody was hurt or killed by Casteel during the shootings in October 2012 . ‘For three days people were intimidated - afraid to take their normal route to work... or school,’ he said. ‘They were afraid they might get shot.’ The terrorism charge brought by the state attorney general's office covered all the shootings in Livingston, Shiawassee, Ingham and Oakland counties. Casteel had faced 60 charges, including attempted murder, in Oakland County for shootings in Commerce Township and Wixom before pleading no contest but mentally ill to assault and firearms charges last year. Defense attorney Mullkoff has said his client was diagnosed with delusional disorder, a condition associated with maintaining false, persistent beliefs despite evidence to the contrary. Casteel is a St. Johns, Mich., native who lived in Taylorsville, Ky., before returning to Michigan in 2012 to live with his wife's family. Police in Kentucky said they had no contact with him until June 2012 when he became agitated and complained about aircraft flying too low over his house. No one else had reported low-flying planes.

Sportsmail’s top pundits give their verdicts... Raheem Sterling and Cristiano Ronaldo go head-to-head as Liverpool take on Real Madrid at Anfield . Sportsmail's Three Wise Men give their verdicts ahead of Liverpool's Champions League clash with Liverpool . How do you stop Madrid? MARTIN KEOWN: Madrid are lethal on the break and Brendan Rodgers will have looked at how they destroyed Bayern last season. Without Bale and Di Maria, they have lost some of that speed, but then there’s Ronaldo. Him running at Lovren and Skrtel is a recipe for disaster. It will be interesting to see if Liverpool stay with a diamond or maybe use two deep midfielders to offer more protection. Cristiano Ronaldo and his Real Madrid team-mates braved adverse weather during Tuesday's training session . JAMIE CARRAGHER: It is essential that Liverpool’s full backs only go forward when it is absolutely necessary. You have to guard against the way Madrid counter attack at blistering pace and they can’t be given opportunities to speed forward. JAMIE REDKNAPP: We all know about Madrid’s speed on the counter but they are a big, powerful side and so dangerous at set-pieces. They scored two in the semi-final against Bayern Munich last season and again against Atletico Madrid in the final. Sergio Ramos being out will help that but it will be very difficult for Liverpool. They must stay strong and Steven Gerrard, Jordan Henderson and Joe Allen have to look after that midfield. Ronaldo gives a thumbs up to his fans who waited to catch a glimpse of the frontman outside the Hilton hotel . So, how can Liverpool win? REDKNAPP: You have to look at Sterling because he is the stand-out player. If Liverpool can get him on the ball, he will frighten any defender. But the way Liverpool have been defending this season, I don’t think they will keep a clean sheet. The only way they can beat Madrid is to match them in attack and out-score them. KEOWN: They should be licking their lips at the prospect of playing Madrid. Of course it’s a tough game but they should relish the challenge. They have to work the ball well, moving it on quickly and accurately when they are in possession, and a lot depends on the speed of Raheem Sterling and Philippe Coutinho. But the players must enjoy the occasion and draw from it, not be fearful of it. CARRAGHER: By getting back to how they were last season. They need to be aggressive and intense in their play, start quick and get Madrid on the back foot. If they do that, they will have another weapon to use - the Anfield crowd. Liverpool must use the pace and power of Raheem Sterling to frighten the Real Madrid defence on Wednesday . Should Rodgers play Mario Balotelli? KEOWN: Absolutely. If you invest £16million in a player and aren’t prepared to play him after a few games it reflects badly on you. He has to be given the chance to continue the club’s tradition of great strikers. But to do so tonight has to be his greatest night in a Liverpool shirt. CARRAGHER: No. I would go for Sterling as the main striker with Adam Lallana and Coutinho supporting him. Sterling can get in behind a defence but he will also press. Mario Balotelli isn’t doing either at the minute. Sportsmail's Three Wise Men are split on whether Mario Balotelli should start for Liverpool against Madrid . REDKNAPP: I’ve never really taken to him - he acts like a genius but he doesn’t play like one - but I would probably still start him. I can’t see Sterling working as a central striker and though Rickie Lambert would work his socks of, he’s not match-fit. Balotelli has to pray he turns it on, otherwise it could be the end of his relationship with the fans. They won’t tolerate much more. The Liverpool squad appeared in good spirits on Tuesday as they prepare for the visit of mighty Real Madrid . What's your prediction? CARRAGHER: 1-1. Real Madrid might be favourites but there is no chance Liverpool will lie down at home. REDKNAPP: I agree with Jamie. I’ve played enough times at Anfield to know how much the crowd can lift the team. Madrid will win the home game but I’ve got a feeling Liverpool can sneak a draw on Wednesday night. 1-1. KEOWN: The electric Anfield atmosphere could power Liverpool to a special performance, so we could be in for a thriller. But I still feel Madrid are too strong. A 2-1 away win for the Spaniards.

at Anfield . Sportsmail's Three Wise Men give their verdicts ahead of Liverpool's Champions season and again against Atletico Madrid in the away win for the Spaniards. VIDEO Liverpool host
Brazil striker Fred says he was clearly fouled in the move that led to a controversial penalty in favour of the hosts during the opening match of the World Cup. Speaking publicly for the first time after Brazil's 3-1 win on Thursday in Sao Paulo, Fred said in a video released by the Brazilian football federation that 'it was a clear penalty.' He said in the clip that 'there was a charge' by the Croatian defender on his shoulder, and that kept him from having a chance to score. VIDEO SCROLL DOWN TO WATCH CAFU DISCUSS THE REFEREE . Innocence plea: Fred has claimed this foul by Dejan Lovren in Brazil's World Cup opener with Croatia, leading to Neymar's goal for 2-1, was a 'clear penalty' Appeal: Fred, sat on the ground, pleads with referee Yuichi Nishimura for a penalty . Pursuit: Croatia players chase after Nishimura after he points to the penalty spot as Fred remains seated on the turf . Television replays show there was minimal contact by the defender before Fred fell, but Japanese referee Yuichi Nishimura gave the penalty and Neymar converted the 71st-minute penalty to give Brazil a 2-1 lead. Neymar had earlier drawn the hosts level after Marcelo put through his own net to give Croatia a surprise early lead. Oscar added a late third to make sure of victory for Brazil but Croatia were further riled when they had a late reply disallowed after Ivica Olic was adjudged to have fouled goalkeeper Julio Cesar. Harsh: Croatia's Ivica Olic was adjudged to have found Brazil goalkeeper Julio Cesar late on . Lucky boy: Two-goal Neymar was fortunate to escape with just a booking for this elbow on Luka Modric . Croatia coach Niko Kovac was furious at the referee's performance afterwards, claiming he should never have been appointed to such an important fixture. 'If that's a penalty, then we can just stop playing football right now,' said Kovac after the final whistle in Sao Paulo. 'Let's play basketball instead. It's shameful. We talk about respect, but there wasn't any respect for Croatia. 'If that's how we start the World Cup, then we may as well give up and go home now.' Raging: Croatia coach Niko Kovac was furious with the match officials after the game . He added: 'I must say the referee was completely out of his depth. If someone's not up to scratch to referee the first game then find someone else. Two-and-a-half billion people saw this wasn't a penalty.' Kovac also claimed that Nishimura was a 'bad choice' for the match because he had sent off Felipe Melo in Brazil's 2-1 defeat to Holland in the 2010 World Cup quarter-final.

Baghdad, Iraq (CNN) -- The fate of Iraq's newly revised election law again hinges on the approval of the country's Sunni Arab vice president, who is under pressure to sign the much-contested plan. The new bill has been approved by the other two members of the presidency council. Adel Abdul Mahdi, the country's Shiite vice president, issued a statement Thursday saying he and President Jalal Talabani, who is Kurdish, have put their signatures on it. But Tariq al-Hashimi, the country's Sunni Arab vice president, who vetoed the original election bill last week, continues to threaten to veto this revised measure, and Mahdi and Talabani are trying to persuade him to sign the document. Al-Hashimi's vote is key because in Iraq, legislation passed by the parliament must be ratified unanimously by the presidency council, made up of the country's two vice presidents and the president. "All the efforts are devoted to have the entire presidency council approval on the the law, coming from the joint concern about elections to take place in the specified date," Mahdi said in a statement. But al-Hashimi said Wednesday that the "veto is still an option and it will be used if I find that the current law doesn't conform to the [Iraqi] justice and the constitution." The upcoming parliamentary elections and a law setting down rules for elections are seen as important barometers of Iraqi progress toward stability. The election is also key step in plans for a U.S. withdrawal from Iraq, About 115,000 American troops remain in Iraq, and the Obama administration plans to pull all but 30,000 to 50,000 of them out of the country by August. Al-Hashimi vetoed the Iraqi parliament's first election law last week, arguing it failed to provide enough seats for Iraqi refugees, many of whom are Sunnis. A revised bill passed by Iraq's parliament on Monday remains "unconstitutional and unfair," al-Hashimi said in a statement issued by his office. The previous law "was more fair to Iraqis than the new law, which Mr. al-Hashimi will deal with just like he dealt with the previous one," the statement said. Iraq's constitution calls for elections by January 31. Disputes over how seats will be allocated in a new parliament have put the vote in jeopardy. Lawmakers need a two-thirds majority to override a veto, but Iraq's parliament adjourned until December 8 after passing Monday's revised bill. Iraq's top electoral commission -- saying it needs 60 days to prepare for voting -- announced last week that a January vote is unlikely. Al-Hashimi said the election bill is unfair to Iraqis who were forced to flee violence in their homeland, and he refused to sign it without an amendment that would increase the number of seats allocated to refugees and small political parties that could not get enough votes on a national level. In addition to al-Hashimi's objections, Kurdish leaders had threatened to boycott the upcoming vote unless provinces with heavy Kurdish populations get greater representation in the next parliament. The law that parliament passed Monday included revisions the Kurds had sought, but not those al-Hashimi demanded. Al-Hashimi's office said the new law was passed without "national accordance" and outside parliament's usual way to deal with "sensitive national legislation of this caliber." "What happened constitutes a dangerous precedent that will negatively overshadow the overall political process," the statement said. Asked whether the political holdups in passing a law will mean a delay in the election and troop withdrawals, U.S. Gen. Ray Odierno told CNN Thursday that the withdrawal schedule is not as important as getting a law. "Their democratic process is working, and I think it's important that they have a law that everyone will accept so we can move forward together -- that's the most important thing. I believe we have enough flexibility we'll be able to mitigate it and we'll be able to go on and have successful elections," said Odierno, the top U.S. commander in Iraq.

An elderly World War II veteran and his wife were kicked out of their local McDonald's for exceeding the apparent 30-minute sitting limit. Carl Becker, 87, and his wife Barbara Becker, 81, were asked to leave the fast-food restaurant by a manager on February 21 in Culpeper, Virginia. The elderly couple, who have visited the chain for years, had apparently overstayed their welcome and were told to get out of the restaurant, which was half-empty in the mid-afternoon, so an employee could clean under their table. A WWII veteran and his wife, both in their eighties, were asked to leave this McDonald's in Culpeper, Virginia after outstaying their welcome . The couple, who go to McDonald's . because they are on a fixed income and Mr Becker enjoys the chicken . sandwich, say it allows them to pass some enjoyable time talking . together each day away from their home. The Beckers, who have six children and 14 grandchildren, said they have never been kicked out of a place before. Mr Becker was so incensed by their treatment, he wrote a letter to his local newspaper the Star Exponent. He . wrote: 'I have had many experiences in my lifetime as a WWII veteran, a . university teacher, a Professional Engineer, a retiree from the . Ballistic Missile Defense Organization at the Pentagon, and the father . of six children - three of whom are also senior citizens - but none as . unusual as being asked to leave a restaurant so they could clean the . floor under and around the table where I sat.' The couple have gone back to McDonald's but not the one in Culpeper. MailOnline was awaiting a comment today from the McDonald's' franchise owner Bob Drumheller. A McDonald's branch in Flushing, Queens was at odds with group of elderly Koreans in January whom they said hog the tables for hours on end but buy very little . Earlier he issued a statement to WTOP: 'I . care deeply about the comfort and satisfaction of my customers.

By . Sam Cunningham . PUBLISHED: . 07:19 EST, 9 January 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 14:08 EST, 9 January 2013 . Michael Chopra has banned himself from betting shops in Ipswich in a bid to sort out his gambling addiction. The Ipswich striker admitted today he is in such bad debt he cannot afford to pay the minimum £50,000 legal fees required to get someone to represent him in a trial. He has been charged by the British Horseracing Authority for breaching their rules. If the BHA win their case against him they can only ban him from racecourses and their gambling establishments. Tumbling: Chopra's gambling addiction has caused serious problems . But Chopra said in a statement: ‘It is well publicised that I have a gambling addiction problem and I see any such sanctions as being a useful mechanism in helping me to address these problems. As of this year, I’ve voluntarily self-excluded myself from all betting institutions from where I live in Ipswich in order to help me fight this illness.’ Chopra and eight others were charged by the BHA in October for breaching their Rules of Racing and the two-week trial begins on January 14. He is accused of placing bets for horses to lose in a five-month period between November 2010 and March 2011 using information passed on either directly or indirectly by jockey Andrew Heffernan, who is also standing trial. Chopra was advised that even if he was found innocent he would not be refunded his legal fees for being represented in the inquiry. Heavy debt: Chopra cannot afford to pay his legal fees . The 29-year-old added: ‘I have extensive debts and loans and simply cannot afford the amount of money necessary to clear my name, with no prospects of ever recovering my costs. I am not a member of the British Horseracing Authority and not subject to its rules. I have been advised that the British Horseracing Authority is only allowed under its rules to take disciplinary action against a person who is subject to those rules, which does not include me.’ BHA responded later on Wednesday, when media manager Robin Mounsey said: 'The charges being brought by the BHA against Michael Chopra are serious and relate to conspiring with other persons to commit a corrupt or fraudulent practice, and offering bribes to a licensed person. 'It is the BHA's role to protect the integrity of the sport from corrupt practices from both licensed and unlicensed individuals. On trial: James Coppinger (left) and Mark Wilson (second right) are also involved . 'As such, via a disciplinary panel, the BHA is able to impose sanctions upon individuals not bound by the Rules of racing, which include exclusion from entering any licensed premises or having dealings with any licensed person regarding horseracing. 'The BHA will not comment further on this investigation until the hearing has been completed and the disciplinary panel has published its findings.' Two other footballers, Doncaster Rovers winger James Coppinger and former Manchester United midfielder Mark Wilson, are also standing trial.

Engineers have told how they were sent to David Cameron’s house on New Year’s Day to fix his power after he suffered a blackout while watching The Sound of Music on TV. The callout to the Prime Minister’s home in Chipping Norton happened as workmen battled to restore electricity to 11,000 houses in Oxfordshire during the severe storms earlier this month. Two engineers from Scottish and Southern Energy Power Distribution claimed they were sent to Mr Cameron’s address while carrying out emergency repairs in Kirtlington, a village 17 miles away. Power cut: Engineers were sent to David Cameron's house. He is pictured with his wife Samantha . Classic film: Mr Cameron said the power went off 'just before the end of The Sound of Music - but I know what happens, so it's all right' But when the workers - George Faulkner . and Alan Paton - arrived, they allegedly found the blackout was not . related to the storms, and that the trip switch in his fuse box simply . needed to be flicked. Mr . Paton told BBC Radio 4: ‘We could have been employed on better things . but we got called out to a property where the trip had gone that they . obviously hadn’t checked properly. ‘They . thought it was the storms and they phoned in and said they were off . supply. So we went there for nothing really... There was nothing wrong . with their mains.’ Mr . Cameron’s house had been suffering from a leaky roof, and water was seen . around the fusebox, reported the Sunday Mirror. An SSE spokesman insisted the politician did not . receive preferential treatment because of his status - and the visit was not to the detriment of any other customers who may have been without power. Problems: Trains travel slowly over flooded tracks in Oxford on January 8, as heavy rain poured across Britain . Response: The callout to the Prime Minister's home in Chipping Norton (pictured) happened as workmen battled to restore electricity to 11,000 houses in Oxfordshire during the severe storms earlier this month . High winds over Christmas also left 250,000 homes without power, with some families waiting days for the electricity to be restored - something criticised as ‘not acceptable’ by Mr Cameron. 'We could have been employed on better things but we got called out to a property where the trip had gone that they obviously hadn’t checked properly' Alan Paton, SSE engineer . The SSE spokesman told MailOnline: ‘The Prime Minister did not receive any preferential treatment when we attended his property. 'And further, this visit was not to the detriment of any other customers who may have been without power. To suggest otherwise would be absolutely false.' A Number 10 spokesman told the Sunday Mirror: ‘The power went down because there was a leaky roof. There was water around the fusebox. The engineers came to fix it, which they did.’ Mr Cameron told The Sunday Times of the power cut: ‘I couldn't work out what it was. The power went off just before the end of The Sound of Music. But I know what happens, so it's all right.’

Though initially reported missing, the English bulldog that was the mascot for sports teams at Louisiana Tech University actually died of heatstroke, officials said Wednesday. The veterinarian that kept Tech XX said a now-fired employee left the dog outside on Sunday. "Tech XX was a member of our immediate family and a daily part of our lives for the past four years," Patrick Sexton said in a statement. "We are devastated over the circumstances of his passing, and there will be a large void in our hearts for some time to come. As with any family member, we will spend considerable time grieving his passing." The university, in Ruston, said in a statement that since becoming the mascot in 2008, Tech XX got superior care and a loving home from Sexton's team. "He will be remembered for being a fan favorite and a symbol of the spirit of Louisiana Tech," the university said. Originally the worker said he let the dog out to go to the bathroom and the dog went missing, Sexton said. Students and residents went looking for the canine. His predecessor, Tech XIX, was retired in 2007 because of health concerns after suffering heatstroke, the university said on its website.
At first, employee said dog went missing when the canine went outside . Vet that cared for the dog says it died of heatstroke . The worker has been fired, veterinarian Patrick Sexton said . Louisiana Tech says dog was a "symbol of the spirit" of the school .

The father of a missing south London girl who is feared to have travelled to Syria has made a desperate plea for her to come home. Abdirashiid Dirie, from Stockwell, has urged his 17-year-old daughter Samya to return, saying 'nobody's against you'. The college student is believed to have flown out of Heathrow airport with 15-year-old Bristol girl Yusra Hussien nearly two weeks ago. Yusra Hussien, 15, (pictured above) is though to have fled to Syria with London teenager Samya Dirie, 17, whose father has now appealed for her to return home . Safiya Hussien (centre), Yusra's mother, spoke at a press conference with the girl's aunt's Sucdis Ali (left) and Ikram Mohamed, last week . Mr Dirie said: 'What I'm saying, as a dad, come back. Nobody's against you. It is not true, nobody's going to arrest you. 'You're a young girl and they know that. The police also know that, they've even said that in the newspaper. You haven't committed any crime. 'Come back safely. That place (Syria) is not good for you. You can carry on your education. I want you to come back, as a father. 'You are after paradise by going there, but you will achieve paradise by pleasing your parents.' He told BBC News he believes she met the Bristol teenager on the internet and must have been influenced by extremists online. The police say they want the teenagers to come home and this case is about missing young girls, not a crime. Miss Dirie, a student from south London, disappeared after telling her parents she was going on an early morning trip to a university with her college. They then discovered that her passport and money was missing and now believe that she is too scared to come home. Miss Dirie called a cousin a few days ago, possibly from Turkey, and said she is safe. Mr . Dirie said: 'She told her she is somewhere far away, and she did not . say where she is, she also said she was afraid of the police if she . comes back.' It is feared the teenage girls may have joined ISIS extremists in Syria (pictured) after being radicalised online . It is believed Samya Dirie and Yusra Hussien flew to Istanbul, Turkey (pictured) before going on to Syria . Her mother, Sahra, said: 'The police are doing all they can to find her. She's a lovely girl. We just hope they can find her.' A . family friend added: 'The whole family is very shaken up. She's an . educated girl and she didn't even go out much in Britain so they cannot . understand why she has gone to Syria. 'They had no idea she was interested in Syria or Jihad. She was happy to be in Britain and wants to be a lawyer.' The mother of fellow runaway Yusra broke down in tears in an emotional press conference last week as she begged her daughter - who has not been seen since she leaving her family home for school on September 24 - to come home. She said: 'Yusra, I am your mum, I love you. Please, please, please, we miss you, come back. 'I love you so much. All your brothers and your sister miss you so, so much. The house is not the same.' Family friends previously said they believed Yusra, who wears a hijab as part of her faith, had become radicalised on chat rooms and forums online. It is not yet clear how she met 17-year-old Miss Dirie. Yusra's parents have stressed that nothing has been proven about their daughter's beliefs.

Going on holiday alone is not such a big deal these days it seems, with nearly a quarter of people saying they travel abroad by themselves. This is a sharp increase over the previous year, which showed only nine per cent of travellers were prepared to go it alone. The top reasons given for flying solo included 'looking for love' and 'to rediscover' themselves, but one in five solo holiday-makers confessed they simply 'had no one to go with'. Scroll down for video . A jetty of my own: The number of people choosing to go on holiday by themselves has risen, new figures show . Ongoing research into the holiday preferences of Britons also showed that 76 per cent of respondents had never been on holiday by themselves. The new research was carried out by UK online travel agency www.sunshine.co.uk to keep track of booking trends and patterns, and quizzed nearly 2,000 people aged 18 from the UK. Respondents who had been on a holiday abroad alone were asked to disclose all the reasons why they had had travelled by themselves, and the highest number said they were looking for love. 'To re-discover myself' was the next most popular answer, while a confident 24 per cent admitted they preferred their own company - and 19 per cent said they had no one to go with. 'What is this life if full of care, we have no time to stand and stare?' Going solo is something more people will do . 1. Looking for love                                  31% . 2. To rediscover myself                           26% . 3. I like my own company                         24% . 4. No one else to go with                         19% . 5. My usual holiday buddies couldn't go  17% . As for location, Spain came out tops as the most popular place to go solo at 25 per cent, closely followed by Australia at 23 per cent. Thailand (18 per cent), Greece (14 per cent) and France (11 per cent) were the next most common places for solo travellers to have visited. 'Although flying with others is usually favoured by most due to being able to share holiday memories, there is no shame in holidaying alone,' said sunshine.co.uk managing director Chris Clarkson. 'Whilst many choose to go travelling abroad on a soul-finding mission, perhaps to Thailand or Australia, a solo holiday can be a chance to relax and have some time to yourself.' When asked about the possibility of travelling alone if they hadn't previously, a majority of 67 per cent said they would, whilst the remaining 33 per cent stated that they would never go abroad alone.
Marked increase in the number of people going abroad alone . Two thirds said they would consider going abroad alone in the future . Spain was the most popular country for solo travellers .

By . Sarah Griffiths . Pot plants can clutter up a workspace, providing little benefit other than looking pretty. But now there’s a mini tree that promises to charge your smartphone and can even be used as a light. The Electree Mini has solar panel 'leaves' to transform the light it absorbs into energy that can be used to charge a range of USB-connected devices as well as batteries. Scroll down for video . The mini power plant: The Electree (pictured) contains solar panels to transform the light it absorbs into energy that can be used to charge a range of USB-connected devices such as smart watches (pictured) and smartphones . The 'plant' is made from recycled plastic and contains no glue. It has nine solar panel 'leaves' that can be swivelled to face the sun. They transform light into energy that can be stored in batteries and used to power USB devices. A version of the tree enables it to be turned into a colour changing lantern. The Electree Mini will come in kit form and can be dismantled easily. Its design was inspired by bonsai trees and patterns in nature. It is available to pre-order from €199 (£164) via Indiegogo. The device has nine solar cells which can be swivelled on the ‘potplant’s’ plastic branches to get maximum exposure in the sunlight. Vivien Muller, the French designer behind the concept was inspired by bonsai trees and patterns found in nature when designing the device, which is now at crowd-funding stage. He intended it to provide solar-derived power to environments without electricity and after several prototypes over two years is close to bringing his idea to the public. The device comes in different versions: the basic Electree Mini, which recharges three AA or AAA batteries that people can use to power appliances; Electree LED, which turns the solar tree into a colour changing lantern and Electree USB, which will allow people in sunny countries to recharge their smartphones and smart watches every day.

One version will allow people to make use of all the different functions, which come in the form of modules that can be clipped into the Electree’s ‘pot’. Made from recyclable materials, the Electree comes in kit form, allowing people to disassemble it when they are not using it. Mr Muller needs to raise €190,000 (£156,164) to reach his goal on crowd funding website Indiegogo to put his prototype into production. ‘Reserve an Electree mini for your home, office, or store, to ensure continuous aesthetic rapture coupled with a greener carbon footprint for yourself and all your visitors, colleagues, and customers,’ he said. The basic Electree Mini costs €199 (£164), with the USB and LED versions available to pre-order for €229 (£188). A version allowing people to use the ‘plant’ as a light, battery and smartphone charger is priced at €249 (£205) and delivery is estimated to be just in time for Christmas.

(CNN) -- A winter storm blasting the Northeast caused significant headaches for travelers on Friday, including long delays at several airports, according to the Federal Aviation Administration. Flights destined for Newark Liberty International Airport in northern New Jersey were arriving more than four hours late on average, the FAA reported around 4 p.m. ET on its website. Significant delays were reported elsewhere in the region as well, including about 2½ hours at both New York's LaGuardia airport and Boston's Logan airport. The travel situation, however, did improve considerably over the course of the night. By 9 p.m., for instance, most Northeast airports were experiencing only minimal delays. One exception then was LaGuardia, which still was experiencing 2½-hour backups on arriving flights, according to the FAA. Even so, between United, Delta and American airlines alone, the bad weather caused at least 670 flight cancellations Friday in the Northeast corridor. Some areas of Massachusetts could be under two feet of snow by the time the storm cleared the area Friday night, according to the National Weather Service. The Northeast isn't the only area being hit by late wintry weather. Blizzard warnings were posted through Saturday and in some cases into Sunday for parts of four Rockies and Plains states. Parts of Colorado could see 10 to 15 inches of snow, according to the weather service. Before it hit in full, the storm system had already caused travel issues. United Airlines preemptively canceled 270 flights on Saturday and Southwest canceled another 125. Most of the cancellations impact Denver.

(CNN) -- CNN Flims' "An Unreal Dream: The Michael Morton Story," describes in chilling detail how a young father's life was turned upside down and forever changed after his wife was murdered and he was wrongly convicted of the crime. Like nearly all the 311 DNA exonerations in the United States, Morton's story exposes enormous flaws in the criminal justice system. Morton almost certainly would have never been convicted if the prosecutor had not failed to turn over critical evidence pointing to his innocence. But if there can be a silver lining to a situation in which someone serves nearly 25 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, Morton's case has revealed a valuable tool for holding errant prosecutors accountable for their deliberate misconduct. Morton was exonerated of the 1986 murder of his wife, Christine, after DNA testing of a bloody bandana that was found in the woods near the couple's Williamson County, Texas, home was shown to contain the blood of Christine and Mark Allen Norwood. Norwood, who has an extensive criminal history, was subsequently convicted of Christine's murder. Based on DNA testing conducted during the Morton investigation, Norwood has also been charged with the long unsolved murder of another young wife and mother, Debra Baker, who was killed under chillingly similar circumstances two years after Christine Morton's murder. During the Innocence Project's investigation of Morton's case, we learned that the prosecutor, Ken Anderson, who was subsequently made a judge, failed to turn over evidence to Morton's attorney. That evidence was a detailed account of the murder from Morton's 3-year-old son Eric. Eric told his maternal grandmother that Morton was not the attacker. Other evidence that wasn't shared also pointed to a third-party assailant. Last month, in an extremely rare instance of a prosecutor being criminally punished, Anderson entered a plea "not to contest" proceedings of "criminal contempt of court" related to Morton's case, according to Williamson County, Texas, court documents. Anderson was sentenced to 10 days in jail, a $500 fine, 500 hours of community service and was forced to permanently surrender his license to practice law. He had submitted his resignation from the bench a few weeks earlier. Read more about Morton's case and Ken Anderson's response . Texas was able to prosecute Anderson with criminal contempt because there was evidence he had violated a specific court order and made false statements to a judge. During the trial, when it became clear that Anderson was not planning to call the lead investigator in the case, Morton's trial lawyers became suspicious and brought it to the judge's attention. The court in turn ordered Anderson to turn over the investigator's complete report for it to review. At that time the judge also asked Anderson directly whether he had any evidence that would be favorable to the defense to disclose, and Anderson said he did not. Because there was evidence that Anderson violated a direct order of the court, he was charged through a unique Texas procedure called a Court of Inquiry with criminal contempt and concealment of official records for deliberately disobeying the trial judge's directives. Because court orders have been shown to be the key to holding prosecutors accountable, courts should routinely order prosecutors to look in their files or a specified police file for all exculpatory material and to disclose it in a timely fashion. The prospective standard for determining what is exculpatory should be a version of the American Bar Association Rule of Professional Responsibility 3.8(d) that by law applies to prosecutors in 49 states and the District of Columbia. It has been adopted by the Department of Justice, and requires prosecutors to disclose all evidence that "tends to negate the guilt of the accused or mitigates the offense." Most importantly, the order should clearly state that "willful and deliberate failure to comply is punishable by contempt." Wording here is significant. It means that negligent, inexperienced, stupid or even reckless prosecutors will not be held in contempt, but those few prosecutors who deliberately and willfully suppress exculpatory evidence can be. Experienced and ethical prosecutors will recognize that the issuance of such orders will be an effective tool for teaching new prosecutors about their obligations and will help expose those "bad apple" prosecutors who discredit the profession. These orders create a mechanism for judges to deal with unscrupulous prosecutors in a way that directly addresses the problem. In cases where there is a deliberate violation of such an order, judges can punish offenders directly through contempt citations. Because contempt is generally not subject to statutes of limitations, prosecutors can be punished even if it takes years -- or decades -- to uncover the failure to disclose, which happened in the Michael Morton case. The orders -- which are known as Brady orders -- also make it easier for state bar disciplinary systems to sanction prosecutors. Prosecutors yield enormous power over life and liberty, and there must be effective systems in place for making them accountable. While the number of prosecutors who deliberately break the rules is small, history shows they tend to be repeat offenders. If there is to be justice for Michael Morton and all the other people who have been wrongly convicted at the hands of unscrupulous prosecutors, every state and federal judge in the nation will start Brady orders tomorrow to deter those few prosecutors who would otherwise deliberately violate their ethical and legal duties. The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Barry Scheck.

(CNN) -- One of the most dramatic Grand Nationals in recent years ended in victory for 25-1 shot Pineau De Re, who ran on relentlessly to capture Britain's most iconic horse race. Ridden by Leighton Aspell for doctor-turned-trainer Richard Newland, Saturday's victory capped a fairytale return to racing for the jockey, following his premature retirement from the sport in 2007. Veteran jockey Richard Johnson narrowly failed to break his 17-year Grand National duck, finishing second on Balthazar King, ahead of A.P. McCoy and Double Seven in third and Alvarado, ridden by Paul Moloney, in fourth. The 167th edition of the most famous race in the National Hunt calendar did nothing to dispel its reputation as the ultimate test for horse and rider. Horses must jump 30 obstacles over the four-mile course, including notorious fences The Chair and Becher's Brook. Two false starts delayed proceedings at the Aintree course near Liverpool, the race eventually getting under way in driving rain without Battle Group, who refused to start. An error-strewn opening circuit saw further casualties, and just 18 horses completed the race. Many of the favorites, including Teaforthree, Long Run and Triolo D'Alene, succumbed to the course's notoriously challenging obstacles. By the halfway stage, loose horses were scattered among the runners. One of the most significant incidents occurred when a riderless Tidal Bay, having earlier parted company with jockey Sam Twiston-Davies, loomed upside the leader, Across The Bay, and carried him across the course and effectively out of the race. Across The Bay managed to rejoin the field and eventually finished 17th. Pineau De Rey's victory was memorable for both jockey and trainer. The 37-year-old Aspell spent two years working as assistant to flat trainer John Dunlop before making a surprise comeback to race riding in 2009. Trainer Dr. Richard Newland is a registered physician with around a dozen horses in training. He has quickly established a reputation as a trainer skilled at refreshing older horses, such as the 11-year-old Pineau De Re. The race has been marred by deaths in past years, but this time all 40 horses and jockeys returned safe and sound. "It has given us greater confidence in the measures taken to make Aintree safer for horses," Mark Kennedy, head of science for animal welfare at World Society for the Protection of Animals, told CNN. "In the UK alone, for each thousand horses that start a jump race, four will die. At this level of risk fatalities are not freak events; they are predictable."

Jerusalem (CNN) -- Israel has arrested an Iranian-born man, accusing him of spying for Tehran. He was carrying photos of various sites, including the U.S. Embassy in Tel Aviv, the Israeli government said Sunday. The announcement came as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu traveled to the United States to address the United Nations General Assembly and meet with U.S. President Barack Obama. Netanyahu has been outspokenly wary of Iran's apparent efforts to improve relations with the West. "I will tell the truth in the face of the sweet talk and the onslaught of smiles," he said Saturday, in the wake of last week's speech at the U.N. by Iranian President Hassan Rouhani. According to a news release Sunday from the Israeli government, Ali Mansouri, a native of Iran who has also lived in Belgium, was arrested September 11 at Ben Gurion Airport as he was leaving Israel. He was traveling under the name Alex Mans, the statement said. "He gave full details about the men that directed him and said they told him to cover up his visits to Iran, after he had been in Israel, where he reported to his directives and received instructions from them. His operatives hoped his Belgium identity would help him get around the security check at the airport," the statement said. Israel accused Mansouri of working for a special unit of the elite Quds Force. He was plotting to set up a spy network in Israel under the guise of a businessman who marketed services to restaurants and stores, the statement said. Mansouri was promised $1 million, the Israeli government said. An attorney for Mansouri told CNN his situation "is more complicated than what was introduced by the (Israeli General Security Service)." "He didn't have any intention to harm Israel and also he doesn't have any anti-Israeli agenda or pro-Iranian agenda," said attorney Michal Orkavi. Marzieh Afkham, a spokeswoman for the Iranian Foreign Ministry, said the ministry would comment once it finished its investigation into the matter. A U.S. State Department official, speaking on background, said Washington was aware of the report, but referred CNN to the Israeli government. Mansouri became a Belgian citizen in 2006, the Israeli government said. They allege he was recruited to become a spy for Iran in 2012. Rouhani spoke last week at the United Nations on his country's nuclear program, saying Iran is prepared to engage in talks and nuclear weapons have no place in his country's defense structure. Netanyahu said then that his country "will not be fooled by half-measures that merely provide a smokescreen for Iran's continual pursuit of nuclear weapons."

By . Louise Boyle . PUBLISHED: . 19:14 EST, 9 January 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 08:29 EST, 10 January 2013 . When you advertise for a nanny offering a princely $15-an-hour, most parents aren't expecting Mary Poppins to waft through the door. However one New York couple are setting the bar high after posting a Craigslist ad this week accompanied by 65 highly personal and detailed questions for the future caretaker of their children. The nanny ad was posted online on January 5 by a couple who live with their two sons in the Sunnyside area of Queens, New York. Dream job: A couple in Queens, New York have advertised for a 'magical Mary Poppins' - with a grueling, 65-question survey about the potential employee's drug and hygiene habits . The couple demand full disclosure with an online Spanish Inquisition that covers everything from marijuana smoking to the use of hand sanitizer. The ad opens: 'Grab your umbrella! You are a magical Mary Poppins, a wizard, or a giant spiky Triceratops. 'You love to play, pretend, create, teach, and nurture. You are reliable, . warm, and fun, but also know how to say "no" when necessary.' The job description requires the nanny to take care of two boys, aged two and five, two days a week, between the hours of 11.30am and 5.30pm. Tasks include picking up the two children from school, preparing lunch, setting nap times, organizing games, activities and reading. The nanny may also be asked by the parents to work on an occasional 'date night', according to the Craigslist post. So far, so normal - but the slightly off-beat introduction gives no indication of the grilling to come. Welcome to the neighborhood: The part-time nanny job is based in the Sunnyside area of Queens, New York . The opening question of the survey asks: 'Are you an American citizen?' followed up by: 'If your family is from outside America, do you see yourself becoming homesick and needing to return to them? From there, the questions take an even more personal turn. 'Will you be able to provide a letter from your primary care doctor stating that you are in good health and able to perform the rigorous job of caring for two small children?' the couple ask. They add: 'Will you provide a letter from your doctor listing all your current prescription drugs?' This segues into an inquiry over drug use that a narc squad officer would be proud of. Question 25 reads: 'How often do you smoke weed?' The interrogation doesn't end there - . the follow-up question asking: 'If you ever smoke weed, how many smokes . do you typically have on a social occasion?' The topic then branches out to ask . potential nannies how often they use all recreational drugs (with the . helpful description of 'all drugs you can't buy at the supermarket'). A check-box list is then included . which runs the gauntlet of legal and illegal substances from Percocet . and cough med to meth and heroin. Help wanted: A couple with two young sons posted an ad looking for a nanny on Craigslist earlier this week . The future employers also want to know if the prospective nanny has ever smoked cigarettes and whether he or she is prone to a hangover. Hedonistic habits aside, personal hygiene is also a grave concern of this couple. The employee is asked a rigorous set of questions about how often they shower, when they wash their hands, their length of fingernails and whether they use perfume. And for $15 an hour, the couple inquires as to their prospective Mary Poppins' high school and college GPAs and whether they have an advanced degree. The parents finally state that the nanny is banned from using 'Facebook or blogging' anything about the family - in their public Craigslist ad.

(CNN) -- When life gives you Comcast, make a "shamecast." Shamecasting is what I'm calling tech journalist Ryan Block's ingenious method of publicly shaming Comcast for the way the cable company treated him on the phone. I hope it becomes a national trend. On Tuesday morning, Block posted an audio clip of his 18-minute, nightmarish attempt to try to cancel service. Instead of cooperating with Block's simple request, which Comcast is legally required to do, the customer service representative badgered him, threw up obstacles and generally exhibited sociopathic behavior. After the clip went viral, Block received an official apology from the company, which said, in part: "The way in which our representative communicated with him is unacceptable and not consistent with how we train our customer service representatives." Nor is it consistent with the social norms of any society on Earth. Yet the clip went viral because of our cathartic solidarity with Block. We've all been held hostage by big companies afraid of losing business. We've all been told by anonymous customer service representatives that they "can't" help us. They "can't" discontinue service. They "can't" give us a confirmation number. In short, we've all felt helpless. Comcast's apology also cited its "embarrassment." If embarrassment is the only language these companies speak, let's give it to them. Let's shamecast companies who refuse to treat customers with respect. Coincidentally, a few weeks before the Comcast episode, I started recording my own phone calls with customer service representatives. My latest dispute had gone on for months, and I was still receiving bills for work that was never done (and that had been officially canceled). But things took a swift turn when I notified the representative that I was recording the conversation. Soon after that call, I was contacted by the same person — this time with an apologetic tone, assuring me the matter was resolved. Most customer service representatives do not exhibit the sociopathic behavior of the Comcast employee. Most customer service reps are nice people who are just trying to do their job. Furthermore, many of them have to suffer their own abuse from angry callers who feel trapped and mistreated by a company. Most of the time it's not the customer service rep's fault. But we've got to do something about the dysfunctional system of customer service. Enter shamecasting. Online review sites are helpful, but there's a big difference between interpretation and reality. With a recorded conversation, you've got proof. It's the difference between "I'm being mistreated by a company" and "I'm being mistreated by a company — listen to this audio clip of our interaction." The next time you call a big company and get a difficult customer service representative, protect yourself. If you have an iPhone, you don't need anything else. There are several apps that can record calls for you. (For legal reasons, make sure you notify the representative that you're recording the call.) If you don't have a smartphone, no problem. As long as you put your call on speakerphone, there are several ways to record it. Most laptops have built-in microphones, and you can simply record the conversation using Garage Band or another piece of recording software. Or you can buy a cheap digital audio recording device that records in several modes, including .wav and .mp3. These files can be easily transferred to your laptop, and then, if necessary, to the Internet. As you record your conversation, stay calm. If anybody is going to look like the bad guy, it's not going to be you. Hopefully, your call will go well, the company will cooperate with your request, and you can go about your day. But if not, you can upload your audio clip to Soundcloud, like Block did, and then broadcast it to the world through Twitter, Facebook, or your blog. Imagine the relief you'll experience the next time you interact with a telephone representative. When he or she tells you that your call may be recorded for "quality assurance purposes," you will be able to respond with: "And just so you know, I'm recording this call for consumer protection purposes."

(CNN) -- The first week his debut album, "Up All Night," came out, Kip Moore found himself nestled in the Billboard 200's Top 10 between the likes of Jack White, Adele, Lionel Richie, Nicki Minaj and Jason Mraz. The late April release landed at No. 6, an impressive showing for a guy who's released two singles so far. But one of those singles -- a joyous country-rock tune called "Somethin' 'Bout a Truck," an ode to rule breakin' with a girl on the tailgate of a truck bed -- has done remarkably well since its release in September. It's been certified gold and has sold more than 700,000 digital singles, with the video viewed nearly 7 million times on YouTube. For Moore fans, the appetite for more music has been growing steadily for about seven months. And it couldn't come at a better time for the Georgia native, who's been primarily making his living in Nashville over the last four years as a songwriter with a publishing deal as well as a touring musician, playing bars and small clubs across the country. "I've been writing about two songs a day for about seven or eight years," the 32-year-old singer told CNN from a tour stop in New Hampshire last month. "(When I moved to) Nashville, it was a move because that's what I really wanted to do. I think it's natural when you get to a town like that, you question, 'Are you good enough?' every single day. "I was below the bar I needed to be when I first got there. I questioned going home all the time my first few years. You see your friends around you building a foundation with their jobs, retirement, family -- not that those things are what I want now, but you could look up, and you're 40 years old -- all of a sudden you have nothing to show for it." Before moving to Nashville in the early 2000s with songwriting aspirations, Moore credits the time he spent in Hawaii after college for helping him get his songwriting skills up to snuff. He'd grown up on artists such as Bob Seger, Jackson Browne and Willie Nelson. As a kid, he fondly recalls his father playing their music often in the car on the way to go fishing on the Gulf Coast, but he didn't really know what he wanted to do with his life until he hit the big island. "I lived in a little hut with a backpack and went to the beach every day," Moore recalled. "I wrote a lot of songs out there. 'Everything But You' is strictly from that experience. I didn't know what I wanted to do with my life. I've always been a little bit like that. I worked a bunch of odd jobs, but I realized out there that with my personality, unless I was doing music, there was no way I was going to be happy." It's been noted that Moore has that blue-collar Bruce Springsteen thing going on, and you can certainly hear that scruff in his voice at times, along with a healthy dose of rock 'n' roll fused within all of his songs. But on "Up All Night," Moore doesn't sing about the plight of the working class; instead, he's much more apt to detail life after the whistle blows and the paycheck's been cashed. The joys of ice cold beer, sunshine, a favorite girl in a favorite sundress -- he spins all of these notions into simple stories that sound blissful, with a little bit of a devilish streak to them. "Sometimes a songwriter can get in the way of things," he said. "I try to just speak it like how I felt people would say it. How I would say it. I feel like people are relating to how I say it, and people are moved by some of those songs." Moore's slated to spend most of the summer on the road, playing a mixture of club dates and state fairs, and he's finally ready to admit that he might just make it as a musician. "Recently, we've been selling out these clubs and see how rabid these people are for the music," he said. "They knew all these tracks before they'd been released. I've felt this wave in the past two weeks, where I've thought things might be all right."

(CNN) -- Reality TV star Tila Tequila first came to fame via social networking, thanks to her popularity on MySpace. Tila Tequila went quiet on Twitter after an alleged violent incident with an NFL player. Later, she became known as one of the most voracious celebrity tweeters, boasting more than 243,000 followers on Twitter. But it was a more archaic form of technology -- a phone call to police -- that briefly quieted her social media activities and thrust the petite personality into the national spotlight after an allegedly violent encounter with an NFL player. Tequila, whose real name is Tila Nguyen, said she was assaulted by Shawne Merriman, a linebacker with the San Diego Chargers. He has denied the charges. Watch player's lawyer react to allegations » . According to a statement from the sheriff's department of San Diego County, California, authorities responded to a disturbance call early Sunday from a woman who said she had been choked and restrained by a male. When police arrived, "the reporting party identified herself as Tila Nguyen, aka Tila Tequila, and her alleged assailant as Shawne Merriman," the statement said. Nguyen, who starred in MTV's "A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila" and its follow-up, "A Shot at Love 2 With Tila Tequila," signed a citizen's arrest at the scene and was transported to a local hospital, authorities said. Merriman was taken into custody on suspicion of battery and false imprisonment, the sheriff's department statement said. Merriman's attorney, Todd Macaluso, told reporters that Nguyen was "extremely intoxicated and inebriated" at the time of the incident and that the player tried to make arrangements for her to leave the house. After hours of Twitter silence, Nguyen tweeted Sunday evening that she was safe at home in Los Angeles and thanked fans for their concern and support. She also appeared to deny Merriman and his attorney's claim by tweeting, "I am allergic to alcohol. It has been publicly known for years. That is how I got the name Tila 'Tequila' cuz the irony. I can't drink." For a few hours on Monday the privacy setting on her Twitter page, @officialTila, was turned on to protect her tweets from being viewed by outsiders. Ian Corbin, founder of CelebrityTweet, said Nguyen is one of the top celebrity tweeters, often posting more than 100 tweets a day. Her abundance of followers has earned her a ranking of "hot," said Corbin, whose site gathers the tweets of about 250 celebrities. Nguyen went quiet before, he said, when there were rumors that she was pregnant by a hip-hop artist. Corbin said he is not surprised that her tweeting has decreased in light of the incident. "She probably has a legal team telling her not to say much," he said. Ardent Tequila fans on Twitter are known as members of the "TilaArmy," and many rallied online after learning of the incident. "@officialTila you know your #TilaArmy is here 4 your support no matter what!!!!," tweeted user BeToRC. Sasha Pasulka, head writer of the entertainment Web site Evil Beet, said Nguyen may have fallen into the trap that many face in their pursuit of celebrity: not being able to shield their personal lives. "The fame doesn't stop just because something bad happens to you and you want some space," Pasulka said. "It's the same thing you saw with Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan." The high-profile nature of the domestic violence case involving singers Chris Brown and Rihanna has heightened public interest in such incidents, Pasulka added. In one of her postings, Nguyen offered a few hopeful words early Monday morning via Twitter: "The truth will set you free. ... God is with me."

(EW.com) -- Fox may have passed up the chance to develop "Modern Family" a few years back, but they still have Ed O'Neill's other big sitcom hit in the vault. Fox is going to re-air the pilot to "Married ... with Children" as part of its 25th-anniversary celebration. The episode will be followed by an encore of "The Simpsons'" 500th episode and then the network's 25th Anniversary Special. The caustic family sitcom starring O'Neill as a lazy, bitter husband launched in 1987 and was a game-changing hit for Fox during its early years. The comedy also helped brand the network as having more of an edge than its more traditional broadcast rivals. The episode will air Sunday, April 22 at 7 p.m. See the full article at EW.com.

He had spent three months locked up with ‘murderers, drug dealers and rapists’ as a result of a bitter £400million divorce wrangle. So Scot Young, who claims to have lost more than a stone in weight while inside, was clearly keen to make up for lost time. The day after he left Pentonville Prison, cigarette in hand and Louis Vuitton designer bag slung over his shoulder, the former property tycoon was back on the society party circuit with girlfriend Noelle Reno. Scot Free: Young, the former business tycoon accused of hiding £400million by his wife Michelle Young, leaves Pentonville Prison (left). Young with Noelle Reno on Tuesday (right) Young, 51, who served three months of a six-month sentence for failing to reveal his financial secrets to his ex-wife, was sporting newly cropped hair – and the same battered leather jacket – as he attended an art exhibition in Soho with the 29-year-old model. A former fixer to the super-rich, he has been locked in a bitter legal battle with his ex-wife Michelle over her divorce settlement following their separation in 2006. Mrs Young, 48, a former model, insists her ex-husband is still worth up to £400million but has hidden his fortune to avoid his ‘obligations’ to her and their two children. He is adamant that he was left penniless by a disastrous Moscow property deal, but was jailed in January after a High Court judge ruled he had refused to reveal how £400million had apparently vanished overnight. Furious: Ex-wife Michelle Young who accuses him of pretending to have lost his fortune to avoid paying her the £48,000-a-month maintenance she is seeking . Mr Justice Moor jailed him for ‘flagrant and deliberate’ contempt of court. His release on Monday infuriated his ex-wife, who insisted he should have been kept in jail. Mrs Young told the Daily Mail: ‘He’s still in contempt of court. How can the justice system let him take one step out of prison without him disclosing the whereabouts of the £400million? He should have stayed in there until he purged his contempt. It’s outrageous that he’s out celebrating.’ She has accused her ex-husband of continuing to enjoy a lavish lifestyle while owing more than £1million in maintenance for her and their daughters Scarlet, 20, and Sasha, 18. Mrs Young’s lawyers allege a forensic accountant has found ‘significant evidence’ to show Young was not insolvent, as he has claimed. They are studying documents that reportedly claim he constructed a secret network of offshore companies to hold his assets. Mrs Young obtained a High Court order in 2007 which forbids him from selling or moving any disputed assets. She alleges that associates including the late Russian oligarch Boris Berezovsky, found hanged at his Ascot mansion last month, helped him to hide the money. Young has accused her of pursuing him in court out of spite, and described the decision to jail him as ‘ridiculous’. Speaking earlier this year, he said: ‘I can’t believe I’m locked up with murderers, drug dealers and rapists for 22 hours a day over a matrimonial matter.’ The couple married in 1995 and lived in a £14million Oxfordshire mansion. Young once bought her a Range Rover filled with couture dresses and gave her £1million in Graff diamond jewellery for her 40th birthday. Their legal battle will resume later this year, with Young facing possible further action for contempt if he fails to reveal details of his finances.

(CNN) -- High fashion isn't often inspired by environmental hazards, but as air pollution levels soared in Beijing last week, models at China Fashion Week walked the runway wearing designer respiratory face masks. The QIAODAN Yin Peng Sports Wear Collection showcased fashion and function in the same breath at the biannual event, which runs through the weekend. Some outfits had built-in face masks while others featured smog masks coordinated to match the ensemble. The runway shows briefly coincide with the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit, for which Beijing is implementing strict pollution controls. The city is limiting traffic and shutting down industrial factories to help air quality conditions. Similar measures were taken for the 2008 Summer Olympics. This month, Beijing International Marathon participants came prepared with face masks and sponges to combat smog levels that were deemed "hazardous" by the United States Embassy. Yin Peng, the designer, said he was surprised his collection had attracted so much attention and said the smoggy environment was not his main inspiration. "From my perspective, no matter how good the outside environment is, the key is how we mix the situation outside with our hearts," he told CNN. 9 things that make air pollution bearable . As the Chinese high-end fashion market continues to grow rapidly, luxury brands are noting that the fashion-forward truly want a complete head-to-toe look. Even on the chic runways of Paris Fashion Week in October, Chinese designer Masha Ma accessorized models with Swarovski crystal-studded face masks amid quilted bomber jackets and sleek modern separates. Ma, along with other Chinese designers like SANKUANZ, Qiu Hao and Xander Zhou, also collaborated with luxury e-commerce site Yoox on a series of couture masks as part of their eco-friendly initiative, Yooxygen. Other companies like Vogmask and Respro are capitalizing on the business of functional fashion. The latter started in the United Kingdom for urban athletes and has since expanded into areas like China and Singapore "as the need for protection from pollution in our urban environments increases," according to its site. After all, to some, fashion is a breath of fresh air. CNN's Serena Dong in Beijing contributed to this report.

Cristiano Ronaldo returned to training at Real Madrid a hero after winning the Ballon d'Or award for a second successive year. The Portuguese superstar showed off the shiny golden award to coach Carlo Ancelotti and his team-mates after seeing off competition from Lionel Messi and Manuel Neuer to win the world's best player crown for a third time. He was joined by James Rodriguez, Toni Kroos and Sergio Ramos, who also had silverware to show off after Monday night's glittering ceremony in Zurich, Switzerland.

Ronaldo, 29, was the hot favourite to claim the main prize after an outstanding 2014 that saw him score 61 goals for club and country, provid 22 assists and claim nine club and individual honours. He played an integral part as Real won the Champions League, rounding off a 4-1 win over city rivals Atletico Madrid in May's Lisbon final. Real also won the Copa del Rey, UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup. Averaging a goal every 62 minutes in La Liga during the calendar year of 2014, Ronaldo also claimed the top scorer trophy. Ronaldo strips off after scoring Real Madrid's fourth and final goal in the Champions League final in May . Ronaldo scored a remarkable 61 goals for club and country Portugal during the calendar year of 2014 . Among the many medals acquired by Ronaldo in 2014 was the UEFA Super Cup in August . Ronaldo was a clear winner with 37.66 per cent of total votes cast by a panel made up of captains, coaches and media members from all FIFA affiliate associations. Messi took second with 15.76 per cent, just ahead of Neuer on 15.72. Ronaldo said: 'I am extremely happy and proud to receive this award and I want to keep challenging myself every day. 'Of course this is something that is always with me. I want to become one of the greatest players of all time and this requires a lot of effort but I hope to get there.'

Ramos and Kroos took their place in the World XI alongside Neuer, David Luiz, Thiago Silva, Philipp Lahm, Di Maria, Andres Iniesta, Messi, Ronaldo and Arjen Robben. February 11 - Getting straight back to record-breaking business after clinching his second Ballon d'Or a month earlier, Ronaldo surpassed Luis Aragones' achievements in the history of Copa del Rey games between Real and Atletico Madrid by scoring a brace against the Rojiblancos. Aragones had scored five goals for Atleti but his record had remained unchallenged since the 1970s. More intriguingly Ronaldo's first goal in the derby, a penalty in the seventh minute, meant the Portuguese had scored in every possible minute of a 90-minute game. May 24 - Ronaldo had been conspicuous by his absence from the scoresheet but it looked like Real had managed to do enough to thwart city rivals Atletico at the end of a dramatic Champions League final in Lisbon. However, he would make his mark in the 121st minute of play, scoring the penalty that made it 4-1 and rubber-stamped 'La Decima'. It was also his 17th goal in that season's tournament, a new record. October 25 - An opening goal against title rivals Barcelona was Ronaldo's 15th in his last seven league games and broke a Real record set by Hungary great Ferenc Puskas in both the 1959-60 and 1960-61 campaigns. Puskas had scored 13 times through seven consecutive league games. December 6 - Ronaldo's 23rd hat-trick in Real colours, this time plundered at the expense of Celta Vigo, was not only a Primera Division record but meant the Portuguese had become the fastest player in La Liga history to score 200 goals. December 20 - His Barcelona rival Lionel Messi might have beaten him to the title of all-time Champions League goalscorer, but Ronaldo was hardly complaining when his 72nd Champions League goal - scored in a 4-0 thumping of Ludogorets - boosted him beyond Real stalwart Raul's previous competition record. He is three goals behind Messi, but now only one Ballon d'Or behind the Argentinian. PRESS ASSOCIATION .

Brittany Norwood, 29, allegedly attacked with a foot-long metal bar from a merchandise stand . Victim Jayna Murray, 30, suffered 322 injuries . Miss Murray's trousers were cut to make it appear she had been sexually assaulted by an intruder . By . Louise Boyle . Last updated at 2:16 PM on 28th October 2011 . A yoga store worker is accused of beating her colleague to death with a foot-long metal bar that formed a merchandise stand at the shop. Brittany Norwood, 29, is said to have chased 30-year-old Jayna Murray through the Bethesda store and also attacked her with a hammer, wrench, knife and peg used to hold up a mannequin. The prosecution at the high-profile trial in Maryland has said that Miss Murray was dead in 15 minutes after 'a brutal and prolonged attack' that left the victim with hundreds of injuries. Colleagues: Brittany Norwood (left) is accused of killing co-worker Jayna Murray (right) at a yoga store in Bethesda, Maryland where they both worked . State’s attorney John McCarthy told the jury at Montgomery County Circuit Court in Rockville, Maryland that Norwood also tried to strangle Murray at Lululemon Athletica store. Mr McCarthy showed the court a bloodstained piece of rope, adding: 'And you can see the hair, Jayna’s hair, hanging on the rope.' At one point on that night, he said, . an employee at the Apple Store next door heard a woman’s voice cry . out,'Oh God, please help me'. The worker pounded on the wall but did not take further action. On the morning of March 12 this year, police discovered Miss Murray dead on the floor of the store and Norwood tied up in the bathroom. Brutal: A photograph inside the yoga shop in Maryland where Brittany Norwood is accused of bludgeoning her colleague to death before staging a robbery . The accused would later tell . detectives she had been attacked by masked men who slipped into the . store after closing time in order to rob them. Police at first considered Norwood a victim before their suspicions were aroused. The prosecution claim that Norwood staged a robbery and tossed . mops, brooms and chairs around the shop. She also cut the victim's trousers to make it appear that the young woman had been sexually assaulted. Mr McCarthy suggested that she used a pair of men’s shoes to track blood . around the store - trying to make it appear that a large man had been . there. An autopsy revealed that Miss Murray suffered 322 injuries, 107 of which were defensive wounds inflicted as she tried to . use parts of her body, including her hands and forearms, to shield . herself. Weapon: A 29-year-old women is said to have beaten her colleague over the head with a metal merchandise rack for around 15 minutes . Scene of the crime: Norwood is said to have staged a robbery at the yoga shop and tracked bloody footprints around the store to make it appear a man had been there . The medical examiner who performed the autopsy . said she had never seen so many defensive wounds, the prosecution said. Mr McCarthy said: 'On March the 11th of this year, she . savagely ended the life of Jayna Murray. 'Today we begin . the process of holding her accountable for the crime she committed... first-degree, premeditated murder.' Distraught: Phyllis Murray, mother of the murdered woman, attends Montgomery County Circuit Court in Rockville, Maryland . The prosecution called Miss Murray an 'extraordinary . young woman' pursuing two masters' degrees from Johns Hopkins University . at the time of her death. Norwood's defence lawyer Douglas Wood . said that a 'horrific' fight broke out between the two co-workers. Mr Wood said: 'Ladies and gentlemen, Brittany Norwood lost it. There’s no doubt about that. She lost it. She lost control.' He claimed that a fight between the women got out of hand and that Norwood never intended to murder her colleague. Norwood’s defence has claimed that she lost her mind that night. Mr Wood said: 'Things that Brittany Norwood did after this were totally inept. 'They show someone, we submit, who got . involved in a nightmarish situation, a nightmare, and had this sort of . imagination, or this explanation of what happened, and it was full of . holes because there was no premeditation, deliberation and willfulness.' The families of both women, including their . parents, were present in the courtroom. The trial is expected to last around eight days. In the state of Maryland, premeditated murder carries the possible sentence of life with no chance for parole. Second-degree murder carries a maximum of 30 years in prison with a chance of release after 15 years. The trial continues.

The International Cricket Council has decided not to appeal against the ruling that saw England seamer James Anderson found not guilty of breaching its code of conduct. Anderson was last week cleared of any wrong-doing by judicial commissioner Gordon Lewis relating to having been accused by India of pushing and abusing their all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja in the Trent Bridge pavilion during the first Investec Test. Only the ICC, via chief executive Dave Richardson, could challenge that verdict - as well as the one that cleared Jadeja of a lesser charge - but after announcing on Tuesday that it would consider the verdict, the governing body has decided not to push the case further. VIDEO Scroll down to watch Jadeja and Anderson cleared of wrong-doing . Flash point: Ravi Jadeja (left) and Jimmy Anderson (right) leave the field for lunch during the Trent Bridge Test . Richardson said: 'This outcome is the result of two exhaustive and thorough disciplinary processes and, after considering the written decision, the ICC is satisfied with the manner in which the decisions have been reached.' Richardson's refusal to re-open a case that was heard at length via teleconference after last week's Test at the Ageas Bowl finally draws the Anderson-Jadeja saga to an end. The England seamer, top wicket-taker in the series and man-of-the-match in Southampton, had been facing a ban of up to four Tests if found guilty but can now go into his home match at Old Trafford on Thursday with no cloud hanging over him. Free: Anderson trains with the England team at Old Trafford on Tuesday ahead of the fourth Investec Test . In the clear: Anderson could have faced a ban had he been found guilty of breaching the ICC's Code of Conduct . The decision will be welcomed by the England and Wales Cricket Board, who were surprised to see the issue escalated so far by the tourists, while India will be highly aggrieved. They have been eager to see Anderson punished, with captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni thought to have resisted all attempts to find a diplomatic solution. Lewis' ruling, which was delivered with surprising speed given the prolonged and exhaustive nature of the hearing, had focused on the lack of decisive CCTV evidence and the conflicting nature of testimony from the opposing sides. As such Richardson, a trained lawyer himself, saw no benefit to a challenge. 'It was a complicated and sensitive matter relating to charges brought against two players at different levels of the ICC Code of Conduct,' Richardson noted. VIDEO Jadeja and Anderson cleared of wrong-doing . Bitter sweet: Jadeja during India's nets session at Old Trafford in Manchester on Tuesday . 'There appears to have been vastly conflicting evidence on both sides, with a total of 13 witnesses who gave testimony. After carefully considering the decision by Gordon Lewis, whose vast experience was invaluable to the process over recent weeks, we believe that no further purpose would be served by prolonging the process through further appeal proceedings. 'The disciplinary procedures were robust and transparent and all parties had ample opportunity to ask questions, test the evidence and make submissions. We have determined that there is no merit in an appeal and that it would not be in the best interest of the sport to take such action.' Lewis had also called on the ICC to look again at their disciplinary code after finding its terms unwieldy in his first appearance as a commissioner. Richardson added: 'As a matter of best practice, the ICC will now review the procedures as set out in the Code and reflect upon the comments made by Gordon Lewis in his decision about how a case of this nature might better be provided for in the future.'

Islamabad, Pakistan (CNN) -- Tensions rippled through Pakistan's tribal region Saturday as three drone strikes killed 18 people and the government continued to block a NATO supply route into Afghanistan. Pakistani intelligence officials said 10 people died in one drone strike targeting a militant hideout, four people died when a vehicle was struck, and four others were killed when another hideout was targeted. All three occurred in the Data Khel area of North Waziristan. The intelligence officials did not want to be named because they are not authorized to speak to the media. While the United States is the only country in the region of Pakistan and Afghanistan known to have the ability to launch missiles from drones -- which are controlled remotely -- U.S. officials normally do not comment on suspected drone strikes. Saturday's attacks come amid an uptick in drone strikes in Pakistan as insurgents fighting in Afghanistan have taken refuge across the border. At Torkham, the main border crossing in Pakistan's Khyber district, queues of trucks and tankers formed at the border crossing, officials said. The supplies are all-important for the NATO-led war effort in Afghanistan. Pakistan halted the convoys Thursday after officials blamed cross-border NATO helicopter fire for the deaths of three Pakistani soldiers. A senior Pakistani government official in Khyber told CNN on Saturday that NATO supplies are still not allowed to enter in Afghanistan and doesn't know when the main route for supplying 152,000 U.S. and NATO forces will open again. "We were asked by our seniors to block these supplies until further orders and we can't allow it to go until we receive orders from our seniors," the official said. A senior security official in the northwestern city of Peshawar also confirmed that convoys were suspended for third day but said negotiations to solve the problem continued. NATO said aircraft had entered Pakistani airspace Thursday in self-defense and killed "several armed individuals" after the crews believed they had been fired at from the ground. It was the fourth such strike this week by NATO helicopters pursuing militants into Pakistani territory in actions that have been condemned by the government. The Pakistani government said it was investigating Thursday's incident in the Kurram district of the northwestern tribal belt, which Washington has branded as a militant hub.

(CNN Student News) -- September 8, 2010 . Download PDF maps related to today's show: . • Colorado • Texas • Japan . Transcript . THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED. CARL AZUZ, CNN STUDENT NEWS ANCHOR: I'm Carl Azuz and you're watching CNN Student News! Today's headlines, no commercials. Bringing you stories from all over the U.S. today, and we start things off in Colorado. First Up: Colorado Wildfires . AZUZ: That's where authorities are trying to put out a wildfire that's been burning for a couple days now. The state's governor has declared a state of emergency. The fire is near the city of Boulder. Around 3,500 people were told to leave their homes, and school was canceled in the area. As of yesterday afternoon, there hadn't been any reports of injuries. Planes, like the one you see here, are dropping fire retardant, chemicals that are used to try to put out the fires. The planes can only fly in certain conditions, though, so if the weather gets bad or the wind picks up, that can be problematic. Officials say that more equipment and more firefighters are heading to the area to help out with the efforts there. Tropical Storm Hermine . AZUZ: These images were taken in Texas on Monday night. They give you an idea of the conditions caused by Tropical Storm Hermine. This storm made landfall near Brownsville. It got weaker as it moved across the state, but Hermine still dumped huge amounts of rain on parts of Texas. Forecasters expected some areas to get up to 10 inches of rain. And in the southern part of the state, Hermine threatened what are called "storm surges." Those can raise water levels; in this case, maybe as much as 3 feet. Just the Facts . TOMEKA JONES, CNN STUDENT NEWS: Just the facts. The Quran is the holy book of the Islamic religion. Its name comes from an Arabic term that means "the recitation." The Quran is made up of 114 chapters, which are divided into different verses. It includes specific laws and rules for Islamic society, as well as guidance for Muslims about their daily lives. Quran Controversy . AZUZ: The Quran is a big part of a protest that's scheduled for this Saturday. The Dove World Outreach Church in Gainesville, Florida is planning to burn Qurans. Terry Jones, the church's pastor, says the protest is aimed at Islamic extremists, not at all Muslims. And he acknowledges that it'll make some people upset. TERRY JONES, CHURCH PASTOR, DOVE WORLD OUTREACH: We feel that the message that we are trying to send is much more important than people being offended. We believe that we cannot back off of the truth of the dangers of Islam, of the dangers of radical Islam just because people are going to be offended. AZUZ: A lot of people are criticizing this idea to burn Qurans. That includes other religious leaders. Some of them came together in Washington, D.C. yesterday to speak out against the plan. DR. GERALD DULEY, PASTOR, PROVIDENCE MISSIONARY BAPTIST CHURCH, ATLANTA, GA: Religious leaders denounce anti-Muslim bigotry and call for respect for America's tradition of religious liberty. As religious leaders in this great country, we have come together in our nation's capital to denounce categorically the derision, misinformation and outright bigotry being directed against America's Muslim community. AZUZ: Another group that's spoken out against this is the U.S. military. In a statement, General David Petraeus -- he's the U.S. commander in Afghanistan -- said burning Qurans "could endanger troops and it could endanger the overall effort in Afghanistan." Blog Promo . AZUZ: Well, there are always interesting comments on this, not only from the people involved in the story, but from you. We've put up a post on our blog at CNNStudentNews.com where you can talk this story, you can talk about how you feel about it. This Day in History . GRAPHIC: . September 8, 1504 -- Michelangelo's "David" statue is unveiled in Florence, Italy . September 8, 1565 -- St. Augustine, Florida, the oldest city in the U.S., is established . September 8, 1900 -- A Category 4 hurricane hits Galveston, Texas, killing more than 8,000 people . September 8, 1974 -- President Gerald Ford pardons former President Richard Nixon for any crimes he may have committed while in office . September 8, 1998 -- Mark McGwire breaks Roger Maris' record for the most home runs in a single season . Is This Legit? JOHN LISK, CNN STUDENT NEWS: Is this legit? Worldwide, one out of every 10 adults is illiterate. Not legit. It's actually twice that many -- one out of every five adults -- who can't read or write. International Literacy Day . AZUZ: Some surprising numbers, and those are part of the reason why the United Nations created International Literacy Day. It's designed to raise awareness about literacy needs around the world. The theme of this year's event is "Literacy and Women's Empowerment." According to the U.N., two-thirds of the world's illiterate adults are women. The organization says that literacy is a basic human right because it's the main tool for learning. CEO Principal . AZUZ: Sticking with the education theme, different teachers have different teaching methods. You know that; you're aware of it; you see it all the time. In Japan, one principal is running his school like a business. And based on his students' test scores, it's working. Kyung Lah shows us how he's making the grade. (BEGIN VIDEO) KYUNG LAH, CNN CORRESPONDENT, TOKYO: The school day begins at Wada Junior High with drills; math drills, as fast as these kids can do them. The theory here: train the brain with drills, much in the same way puzzles may prevent dementia among the elderly. Principal Akihisa Shirota believes it so much, he joins the students. School curriculum is the basics, plus lessons from real-world business and community leaders to show kids where the basics will take them. Revolutionary for a Japanese school system known for rigidity and formality. But Shirota is not your average principal. He's not even a trained educator. He's a businessman who started and then ran publishing at high-tech companies. His lack of experience in this setting is what led the school to recruit him. "Principals are people who became teachers right after graduating from college," says Shirota. "That limits any outside the box thinking," he explains. He runs the school more like a corporation; students, his workers. And he keeps track of them. You know all the names of all the students. PRINCIPAL AKIHISA SHIROTA, WADA JUNIOR HIGH: No only name, but also their testing score. LAH: You know their test scores and their names? SHIROTA: Yes, yes, yes. LAH: Every single one. SHIROTA: All of them. LAH "He's different," says a student. "More like a friend sometimes, but still the boss." In the three years since Shirota has been principal, the school claims higher test scores. The result, he believes, of a number of innovations. It's 6:40 in the evening and students are still here at Wada Junior High School. The reason why: night school is about to begin. This is an unusual move by this public school to try to boost its test scores. It's where I meet 15-year-old Koya Nakamora. "We start at 7:00 p.m.," Nakamora explains. He's been in school since 8:00 in the morning and leaves at 9:30 at night. Critics call this too tough for a public school, but Shirota says the old must give way to new thinking. And other educators in the country are taking note. The bottom line, says this former businessman, if Japan's corporations must adapt and compete in a global economy, it only makes sense that, so too, must Japan's schools. Kyung Lah, CNN, Tokyo. (END VIDEO) Off the Beaten Path . AZUZ: Well, it is time for our first field trip of the school year: Off the Beaten Path. Turns out, people had a lot of time on their hands over the long Labor Day weekend. (BEGIN VIDEO) AZUZ: Honestly, who doesn't dream of being a champion arm wrestler? Okay, don't answer that. Just arm yourself for a battle of the biceps! At Canada's National Arm Rasslin' Championships, it's about technique. For some, it's all in the wrist. For some, it's in speed. And for some, it's in the face. Would you wanna hold hands with this guy? UNIDENTIFIED MALE: When they mean redneck festival, they mean redneck festival. AZUZ: But we're not still talking about arm wrestling. We're talking about this: Pennsylvania's annual Redneck Festival! You can ride the bull or barrel. You can shop for jewelry or aluminum. UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: They sell like hotcakes. AZUZ: But if a "haybale obstacle course" isn't your speed, saddle up for a one-wheeled whirl across the Brooklyn Bridge! When you're too coordinated for two wheels, you don't just want to boast balance; you want to show stunts. This person had a "can-do" attitude. At least people would hear it if he fell.

(CNN) -- Your Facebook password is none of your new boss' business. That's what the American Civil Liberties Union is saying after reports that employers are increasingly asking for access to job applicants' social-media accounts. "It's an invasion of privacy for private employers to insist on looking at people's private Facebook pages as a condition of employment or consideration in an application process," attorney Catherine Crump said in a statement from the ACLU. "People are entitled to their private lives." Recently, multiple cases have come to light in which companies have either asked for passwords to Facebook or required that applicants "friend" people at those companies. Robert Collins of the Baltimore area has said that he was looking to be reinstated to his job as a correctional officer in 2010 when he was asked for his Facebook password. "I did not want to do it, but because I really needed my job and he implied that this was a condition of recertification, I reluctantly gave him the password," Collins said in February in testimony before the Maryland House of Representatives, which is considering ACLU-backed legislation to block such practices. "He then proceeded to log in to my account using my private credentials. I asked him, 'Why are you logging on?' He said, 'I am looking through your messages, on your wall and in your photos to make sure you are not a gang member or have any gang affiliation.' " An Associated Press report this week highlighted Justin Bassett, a New York statistician who said that, during a job interview, the interviewer pulled up his Facebook page and asked for his password. He said he refused. The ACLU said it's found an increasing number of companies with such policies on Facebook. They say it's more common with public agencies, such as law enforcement. "You'd be appalled if your employer insisted on opening up your postal mail to see if there was anything of interest inside," Crump said. "It's equally out of bounds for an employer to go on a fishing expedition through a person's private social media account." On an ACLU Facebook page Thursday, followers were, not surprisingly, overwhelmingly against the concept. "I consider it a violation of personal privacy," one user wrote. "Will the next step be to request a key to my house?" It is technically against Facebook's Terms of Service to share a password. "You will not share your password, (or in the case of developers, your secret key), let anyone else access your account, or do anything else that might jeopardize the security of your account," the agreement reads. In addition to Maryland, lawmakers in Illinois are considering legislation that would ban the practice.

LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- Gale Storm, whose acting and singing talents earned her three stars on Hollywood's Walk of Fame, died Saturday, according to a Danville, California nursing facility where she was a patient. Storm was 87. Storm got her first movie contract, a stage name and a husband when she won a radio talent show in Hollywood at the age of 17. Her first TV show -- "My Little Margie" -- set the sitcom stage with Lucille Ball and other female stars in the 1950s, said Skip E. Lowe, a longtime friend who acted in some of Storm's first movies in the early 1940s. "She was a wonderful singer," said Lowe. "She started as a singer and became known as an actress and singer." Born Josephine Owaissa Cottle in Bloomington, Texas, in 1922, she entered and won a CBS Radio talent show that offered a grand prize of a one-year movie contract with RKO Studio, according to her personal biography. She teamed up with the male winner, Lee Bonnell, whom she married and had four children with. The couple remained married for 45 years until his death in 1986. "We fell deeply in love and were married two years later, just as soon as my mother would allow it!" she wrote. The new name Gale Storm was also part of the prize, she said. Lowe, who interviewed her several times in recent decades on his cable TV show, said Storm was open about her bout with alcoholism. "She was battling that bottle," Lowe said. Storm wrote about her alcoholism on her official Web site: . "My successes have certainly not been without problems. During the 1970s I experienced a terribly low and painful time of dealing with alcoholism. I had Lee's unfailing support through the entire ordeal. My treatment and recovery were more than rugged." Storm said she was "fully recovered for more than 20 years." She also chronicled her alcoholism battle in an autobiography published in 1980 and titled "I Ain't Down Yet." Her work in movies in the 1940s when she starred in dozens of B-movies -- mostly Westerns -- was great preparation when television became big in the early 1950s, she said. Her first TV series, "My Little Margie" was a radio show transferred to TV as a summer replacement for "I Love Lucy" in 1952. "I was overwhelmed by the immediate success of it," she said. "During the next four years, millions of people saw the 126 episodes of 'Margie' on TV and listened to separate, live episodes on network radio," Storm said. Her next sitcom was "The Gale Storm Show: Oh! Susanna," airing from 1956 until 1960. Storm played the social director on a cruise ship. Along with film, radio and TV, Storm recorded several top-10 pop hits for Dot Records in the 1950s. "I was thrilled when my very first record, 'I Hear You Knockin' ,' sold over a million copies and won for me the coveted 'gold' record," she wrote. "After that, my hit records included 'Dark Moon,' 'Ivory Tower,' 'Teen Age Prayer,' and 'Memories Are Made Of This .'" Her three Hollywood Walk of Fame stars are for recording, radio and television, according to the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce. She acted in a few TV episodes in the 1980s, including "The Love Boat" and "Murder She Wrote." Storm married Paul Masterson in 1988 after Bonnell died. Her second husband died in 1996.

Controversy: The father of 14-year-old Jade Anderson, pictured, who was mauled to death by four dogs earlier this year, has said the decision is 'disgraceful' and 'ludicrous' Tory ministers sparked outrage last night over plans to cut short a House of Commons law and order debate on dangerous dogs – so MPs can meet the Queen. They have been accused of changing the Commons timetable to stop it clashing with a reception at Buckingham Palace, hosted by the Queen and Prince Philip. MPs were preparing for lengthy debates on Tuesday on a crackdown on dangerous dogs and revising Britain’s extradition laws. But last night, it emerged that the debate has been cut to allow backbench MPs to get to a coveted evening reception at Buckingham Palace. Instead of finishing at 7pm as expected, discussion is now due to be curtailed at 5.30pm. It means MPs will be able to get to the Palace according to strict instructions on the gold-embossed invitation by 6.20pm at the latest. The change was ordered after  some MPs complained that if the debate went on until 7pm, they would be unable to attend the royal party – a 25-minute walk or 10-minute taxi ride in the rush hour from the Commons. Coalition sources insisted there is still enough time to debate the Government’s Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Bill, which includes new penalties for out-of-control dangerous dogs. But the decision to cut short the debate was condemned by Michael Anderson, whose 14-year-old step-daughter Jade was killed by four dogs in Atherton, Lancashire. Out-of-control: One of the dogs who killed the schoolgirl in April. The debate on how to deal with these dangerous animals has been cut by 90 minutes so MPs can go to an event hosted by the Queen and Prince Philip . The change was ordered after some MPs complained that if the debate went on until 7pm, they would be unable to attend the royal party - a 25-minute walk or 10-minute taxi ride in the rush hour from the Commons . Mr Anderson, who this week is taking part in a cycle ride to Westminster to highlight calls for tougher laws on dangerous dogs, said  shortening the debate so MPs could attend a royal reception was  ‘disgraceful’ and ‘ludicrous’. He said: ‘It’s just ridiculous that something so important, that concerns saving lives and affects thousands of people – especially us who lost a daughter – is being changed for some party. ‘I am sure if the Queen was aware of this, she would not approve.

England's Twitter account has come under criticism from supporters after promoting Ashley Cole as a candidate for England's Player of the Year, despite playing just one game. The full-back started in a 1-0 friendly win against Denmark back in March at Wembley but retired from international duty after missing out on Roy Hodgson's squad to travel to Brazil for the World Cup.

Reaction to the post ranged from sarcasm to astonishment as one user posted: 'To suggest he should win it is a slap in the face...how can you win POY when you play once!'' Despite ending the year with six straight wins, 2014 will go down as a dismal year for the Three Lions having crashed out of the World Cup in disastrous circumstances after finishing bottom of their group without a victory in Brazil.

(CNN) -- Remember when 50 seemed old? Ad agencies and TV networks won't freely admit to catering to the AARP set. Fashion designers don't typically pander to the grown-up in us. It's tough to find someone 50+ on the cover of Vogue. And yet, for many women, 50 is the age when we reach our stride. It's when we begin to love our maturing bodies. When we claim our personal style. When we step into our own power. So, what does the new 50 look like? Two words: Michelle Obama. When you go through the endless scroll of photos of the first lady -- from Inauguration Day, when she first was cloaked in edgy designer Isabel Toledo, to a recent state dinner honoring the British Prime Minister where she was wearing a sleek, off-the-shoulder dress from American design house Marchesa -- you see a fabulous and undeniable evolution. First lady at 50: Has big day changed? Obama has the nerve to look younger, fitter, and more comfortable in her skin than she did seven years ago. How she does it is an inspiration to all of us over 50. If a picture tells anything, it says she is poised to take on whatever comes her way with grace, dignity, humor, warmth and level-headedness. While she has come to be known both for her cut arms and her healthy manifesto to young people, "Let's Move," what remains curious about this 5-foot-11 brown-skinned woman with decidedly black features (who could easily have been considered awkward) is that she has become a fashion icon. A trendsetter, even. Think about it: How many women in television news and in corporate offices across the country had what the President affectionately called "the right to bare arms" before Michelle Obama started sporting her long, lean limbs? Those sleeveless dresses got women pumping iron, too, urging them on with the dream that they, too, could look as good as she one day. Vanity has surely driven people to better health! Michelle O -- much like her predecessor Jackie O -- has taken the global stage by storm, choosing to define a style for herself that defies tradition. The cut arms? Check. The return of the bangs? Check. The popularizing of affordable American fashion? Check. 10 reasons to welcome turning 50 . And why not? All eyes were on Michelle Obama from the moment she walked into the White House. What would the first black first lady do to make her mark? How would she present herself? What would be her defining moments? Michelle Obama has introduced the country and beyond to a woman who is unafraid to be herself, who embraces her uniqueness, and who strategically says what she thinks. Saying it through her attire was a clever way to open many doors. She sold out a Donna Ricco dress from White House/Black Market when she made an early appearance on "The View," showing you don't have to break the bank to look good. She dazzled viewers in British-Nigerian designer Duro Olowu's crazy mixed-up patterns while exercising with children on "Sesame Street." When she took off a shiny black leather jacket to do 25 pushups (three more than Ellen DeGeneres on her own show), folks stopped checking so much for who she was wearing and instead took a good look at what she was saying. Had Michelle Obama come out on the national stage wearing a frown, pounding her fists, saying we have to get healthy and move our bodies or we are going to die, it's unlikely that her cause would have been met with as much success. Instead, she has made looking and feeling good hip, even fashionable. For her, 50 isn't about Spanx or any other fat-cloaking accessory. When you are at your fighting weight and probably look amazing in a two-piece, why would you? For this first lady—whose agenda secretly looks more like that of Eleanor Roosevelt, who stood up for women and intelligence in the face of hostility and scorn—engaging in the art of adornment to expand the lens of how people look at each other and their world has been nothing short of brilliant. In 2008, America took a bet on a president and first lady who didn't remotely resemble their predecessors. Thank goodness, Michelle Obama didn't choose a predictable, cookie-cutter approach once she moved into 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. She took a fashion road less traveled, walking away from heavyweights like Oscar de la Renta, Ralph Lauren and Carolina Herrera and choosing to give some newbies and/or smaller houses a chance. She gave Jason Wu a meteoric jump-start with her first inaugural gown, broadened black female designer Tracy Reese's reach with a sunny People magazine cover and has championed a whole host of other creators—Maria Pinto, Narciso Rodriguez, Thakoon, Tracy Feith, Rachel Roy—many who got the kind of shine they hadn't dared dream about before her reign. Why does this matter? Michelle Obama has artfully navigated her time in office to elevate the collective consciousness about diversity, health and fitness. She's faced the wrath of critics, who have picked on her for everything from her passion to get the nation's youth into exercise to her amazing posterior to the sneakers she wore while volunteering at a food bank. Still, at 50, she stands poised (often in Jimmy Choos) as a perfect example of what being grown and vital looks like. Who wouldn't want to look as good as Michelle Obama when crossing the halfway mark of life? To the haters out there, take a look in the mirror and ask yourself if you'd stand up in her shoes? The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Harriette Cole.
Cole: What does the new 50 look like? Two words: Michelle Obama . Obama's look says she's poised to take on whatever comes her way, Cole says . Cole: Obama has made looking and feeling good hip, even fashionable .

A rescue helicopter crashed yesterday when it tried to take off with too many Iraqi refugees on board, killing the pilot and involving an Australian photographer. The pilot died and several children were injured in the drama on Mount Sinjar, where Yazidi and Christian civilians are besieged by Islamic State fighters. The Iraqi military helicopter, which was carrying aid and had been mobbed by desperate families, was brought down by sheer weight of numbers. Scroll down for video . Tears of relief: An Iraqi Air Force helicopter emergency aid delivery turned into a rescue mission today in northern Iraq . Australian photographer Adam Ferguson was involved in a helicopter crash while providing aid to Yazidi refugees . An army spokesman said too many people tried to climb on board the helicopter, which crashed killing pilot Major General Majid Ashour died and injuring New York Times reporter Alissa Rubin. War correspondent Ms Rubin, 56, was working on a story and travelling on the Mi-17 helicopter with Australian photographer Adam Ferguson, who told the Times he was not injured. In a statement Lt. Gen. Qassim al-Moussawi said Iraqi parliamentarian Vian Dakheel, who is from the minority Yazidi community, was also hurt in the crash. 'The helicopter delivered aid to the people stranded in Sinjar and too many people boarded it and it hit the mountain during takeoff,' the statement read. The injured were evacuated to a hospital in the nearby Kurdish region. Other aid flights – including one run by the RAF – have come under intense fire from the jihadi gunmen. Displaced people from the minority Yazidi sect, fleeing violence from forces loyal to the Islamic State in Sinjar town, walk towards the Syrian border, on the outskirts of Sinjar mountain on August 11 . Displaced Iraqis from the Yazidi community arrive at Nowruz camp, in Derike, Syria on August 12 . The RAF Hercules plane was shot at as it brought food and water to the refugees on Monday night. Kurdish Peshmerga fighters, who are helping the refugees escape the mountainside, said the small-arms fire missed the cargo plane. Thousands of people have been trapped for more than a week on Mount Sinjar in northern Iraq in blistering 50C heat without shelter, food or water. They have fought to scramble aboard the few helicopters bringing humanitarian supplies. In one case, a father and a mother threw their two young daughters across a crowd on to a helicopter which took the children to safety, leaving the two parents behind. And a man clung desperately to the side of another helicopter before losing his grip and plunging to his death. Desperate: A woman clings on to a departing aid helicopter . The dramatic footage shows the moment a desperate woman clung onto an aid flight as it departed Mount Sinjar following the delivery of aid . Special forces are believed to be on the mountain with British and American intelligence officers in direct contact with leaders of the refugees. Special phones were dropped from a Hercules in the first RAF mercy mission, on Saturday. When switched on, they connect directly to Kurdish-speaking British or US agents. A source said: 'They are talking to the people on the mountain, and the questions they are asking are: Where are you? How long can you survive? How much water do you have? Where are the IS fighters?' Mirza Dinnay, a UN relief worker, told the BBC yesterday: 'It's a genocide. You find what looks like hundreds of dead people. Fleeing: The military helicopter crashed on a mountain as it tried to provide aid to the 500,000-strong Yazidi population in Sinjar (pictured), near the Syrian border, as they flee Sunni militants of the Islamic State . Horrific: The refugees are trying to find safety after Isil gave them the ultimatum: convert to Islam or die . 'Thousands of people are trying to save themselves. 'You can imagine what it is like when you land among 5,000 people and can take only ten or 20, and everybody tries to get on the helicopter. 'It's a dangerous situation because everybody pushes each other. Many haven't eaten for around nine days and they are living under the hot sun. 'Three days ago one man tried to get into the helicopter but he couldn't manage it. 'He then clung to the side as we took off but we couldn't help him get inside and within one or two minutes we were flying at around 100 metres, he fell down. Like in a Hollywood film, he died.' On another aid flight, there were chaotic scenes as an Iraqi army helicopter pilot agreed to let a handful of refugees on board but then relented and let 50 people including young children rush on – even though the aircraft has a passenger capacity of 15. The weight was too great for the helicopter to take off, until five men got out. The pilot, Major General Ahmed Saadi, told ITV News: 'I thought, God will be with us.' The picture was the same elsewhere on the mountain when a helicopter delivered food, shoes, nappies and condensed milk to a group seen waving makeshift white flags. It took away just 20 refugees, many seen weeping for loved ones they were forced to abandon. Some of those fleeing spoke of dozens of unburied bodies of people on the mountain who lost their battle for survival. The second RAF aid drop, on Monday night, contained more phones and also GPS equipment to help organise future aid drops. The RAF and Americans have between them delivered 20,000 gallons of water and 85,000 meals, plus 1,000 solar lanterns that can also be used to recharge mobile phones. Last night a government source said ministers were 'hardening up' plans to evacuate Mount Sinjar: 'We are working as fast as we can. It's a complicated operation.'

Mr Justice Cobb held a two day hearing at the Court of Protection after health and social services applied to sterilise a mother-of-six against her will . A mother-of-six with severe learning difficulties could be taken into hospital using 'necessary restraint' to sterilise her. At a hearing at the Court of Protection, health and social services applied for permission to enter the woman's home and take her to hospital to be sterilised against her will because they said her health would be put at risk if she had more children. John McKendrick, who represented a health authority, hospital trust and council - which cannot be identified - said the application was 'extraordinary' and would involve serious interference with the woman's human rights. Mr Justice Cobb held a two day hearing into the case and heard that health workers had struggled to get the woman, who cannot be named, to take contraception, the Sun reported. Her six children have been taken into care and Mr Justice Cobb said the case was one of 'enormous gravity.' The hearing took place at the Court of Protection in London, the UK's most secretive court which deals with cases involving usually highly vulnerable people who lack the mental ability to make decisions for their well being themselves. The court heard that the woman, who is in her 30s, has medical problems which will pose a significant risk if she has another child. Michael Horne, appointed by the court to represent the woman's interests, said: 'The issues have nothing to do with eugenics. 'It is a "therapeutic" sterilisation in that it most effectively mitigates the grave risks to health and life that a further pregnancy could bring.' Mr Justice Cobb ordered that none of the parties could be identified and will give his judgement soon. Barristers said the bid at the Court of Protection in London was 'extraordinary' but important for her health .

Two British jihadists are thought to have been among scores of prisoners handed back to Islamic State by Turkey in return for the release of diplomats. Former grammar school pupil Shabazz Suleman, 18, and Hisham Folkard, 26, are understood to be among as many as 180 fighters exchanged by Turkey in the deal. In return, the terror group has released 46 Turkish citizens and three local Iraqi staff who were captured when IS stormed the Iraqi city of Mosul five months ago. Scroll down for video . Shabazz Suleman, 18, (right) a former pupil at the Royal Grammar School in High Wycombe, and Hisham Folkardis, 26, (left) are said to be the two British jihadists who have been handed back to ISIS by Turkey . The Times has seen a leaked list of names, including the two Britons, that has been confirmed by IS sources. It is not known whether the two British men were captured by Turkish forces during fighting or whether they had been trying to escape Islamic State. Shabazz Suleman, 18, a pupil at the Royal Grammar School in High Wycombe, had reportedly given his parents the slip to cross the border while on holiday in Turkey. He had a place lined up at a top university after achieving good A-level results this summer. He had previously travelled to the Syrian border with an aid convoy last summer. The deal is understood to have been brokered through complex talks with tribes and rebel militia. Three French citizens, two Swedes, two Macedonians, one Swiss, and one Belgian are also believed to have been part of the exchange. British teacher David Bolam, 63, who has been held by militants in Libya since May has been released . The devout Roman Catholic father of Hisham Folkard, who asked not to be named, said he last had contact with his son in early August, after officers from the north-east counter-terrorism unit inquired about his elder son Omar. He told The Times: ‘I’m not surprised. I see the stories about these boys on TV every week. Of course it’s different [that it’s my son], but I hardly knew either of them. 'Their mother took them away. When she let them go to Yemen to study Islam I cut them off completely.’ It is reported that Hisham’s older brother Omar Folkard is known the security services and his passport surfaced in Mali. Detectives looking for Hisham have not ruled out that his elder brother was using his passport in Turkey. It also emerged yesterday that a British teacher held hostage by militants in Libya was released after a ransom was paid. David Bolam, 63, was abducted in May while out shopping. Last month he appeared in a harrowing video begging David Cameron to help save him but his identity was not revealed at the request of the Government. The release of Mr Bolam, from Shropshire, who is principal at the International School in Benghazi, on Thursday follows months of negotiations with the help of local political factions. Last night the Foreign Office said it did not support the payment of ransoms and was not involved in the negotiations.

(CNN) -- Violence in the United States is not related to illegal Mexican immigrants, but violence in Mexico is connected to vast shipments of weapons from the United States, Mexico's foreign minister told CNN Thursday. Foreign Minister Patricia Espinosa pointed to efforts by Mexico to stop the flow of weapons, the great majority of which come from the United States. "Since 2006," she said in a wide-ranging interview with CNN's editorial board in New York City, "the Mexican government has seized over 85,000 weapons in Mexico." She noted that it's not just "regular weapons," but also machine guns, grenades and other high-power arms. Robert Pastor, a Latin America national security adviser for President Jimmy Carter in the late 1970s, pointed out last year there were at least 6,600 U.S. gun shops within 100 miles of the Mexican border and more than 90 percent of weapons in Mexico come from the United States. In contrast, Espinosa said, there's no evidence linking high crime rates with illegal immigration, as some U.S. politicians have contended. The two largest Latino populations in the United States are in the New York City and Los Angeles areas, she said, but both locales have seen a "dramatic drop in the crime rate." Government and police statistics show that the crime rate has been decreasing in New York for the past 15 years. Similarly, statistics show that rate for most major crimes in Los Angeles also has fallen in recent years. "This clearly shows that linking immigration directly with violence is not connected," Espinosa said. Others make the case, however, that illegal immigration and high crime are strongly linked. Supporters of SB 107, the controversial Arizona immigration law, parts of which were struck down in federal court in July, used that argument to pass the bill this year. "Border violence and crime due to illegal immigration are critically important issues to the people of our state," Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer said earlier this year. "There is no higher priority than protecting the citizens of Arizona. We cannot sacrifice our safety to the murderous greed of the drug cartels. We cannot stand idly by as drop houses, kidnappings and violence compromise our quality of life." But statistics from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency and the FBI indicate that both the number of illegal crossers and violent crime have decreased recently. According to the FBI, violent crimes reported in Arizona dropped by nearly 1,500 incidents between 2005 and 2008. Reported property crimes also fell, from about 287,000 incidents to 279,000 in the same period. These decreases are accentuated by the fact that Arizona's population grew by 600,000 between 2005 and 2008. According to the non-partisan Immigration Policy Institute, proponents of the bill "overlook two salient points: crime rates have already been falling in Arizona for years despite the presence of unauthorized immigrants, and a century's worth of research has demonstrated that immigrants are less likely to commit crimes or be behind bars than the native-born." Espinosa also addressed comments by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton earlier this month comparing Mexico's drug war to an "insurgency" similar to the problem Colombia faced more than 20 years ago. "[W]e face an increasing threat from a well-organized network, [a] drug-trafficking threat that is, in some cases, morphing into or making common cause with what we would consider an insurgency, in Mexico and in Central America," Clinton said at a speech to the Council on Foreign Relations. "It's looking more and more like Colombia looked 20 years ago." Mexican officials, from President Felipe Calderon on down, took exception to that characterization. Espinosa reiterated the point Thursday. "The realities are very different," she said. Colombia, she said, was fighting drug-producing and drug-trafficking organizations that also were working with an entrenched Marxist guerrilla movement. "In Mexico," she said, "the situation is very different. In Mexico, we are dealing with very powerful and strong transnational criminal organizations." Espinosa also addressed the issue of drug cartels spreading south to Central American nations, which seems to have become a bigger problem in recent years. "The world is becoming smaller every day," she said, adding that "transnational organized crime does not recognize any borders." And while the problem is not particularly new, she said, "What has changed is the power of these transnational crime organizations." Espinosa said some governments in Central America have gotten weaker or don't have the technological capabilities to fight crime, and the drug cartels have taken advantage. "They have found a place to develop their activities," she said. CNN's Mariano Castillo contributed to this report.

By . Sean Poulter . Stringent: The tough line on punishing parents who take their children out of school during term time has been championed by Michael Gove . Parents are being turned into cheats, liars and criminals because they are taking children out of school during term time to try to cut the cost of a family holiday. More than one in three are risking fines and prosecution because they will not or cannot afford to pay the inflated holiday prices that kick in the day that the schools break-up. At the same time, some one in five of these parents are telling lies and trying to hide what they are doing by putting their child’s absence down to an invented illness. The vast majority of people breaking the rules -72 per cent – say the sole reason is because of the high cost of holidays during the official school summer break. The figures come from research by the Nationwide building society, which also found the current system means a family can expect to pay an extra £1,347 for a foreign break in Spain. This compares to the current penalty of £60 for an unauthorised absence which can be increased to £2,500 if the case ends up in the courts. The tough line on punishing parents who take children out of school has been championed by the Education Secretary, Michael Gove, who said they could not afford to miss lessons if they were to achieve the results expected. He has turned the screw on parents and schools by ending a policy that allowed schools to grant up to 10 days holiday a year to families in ‘special circumstances’. The policy has caused enormous anger among parents, while a London banker has recently lodged a legal test case to challenge the law. James Haymore was summonsed to court after he refused to pay a £120 fine for taking his children to America for six days at the start of the spring term for a memorial service for their great-grandfather. Mr Haymore, who works for JP Morgan, will argue that the decision to prosecute him for taking his three children out of school is a breach of the Human Rights Act. A spokesman for the Nationwide said: ‘Given the fact that the premium for a typical holiday in Spain for a family of four could be as much as £1,347 more during school holidays compared with term-time, it’s no wonder that parents are still tempted to face the ire of their children’s head teacher, plus the threat of a fine, in order to save some significant cash.’ It looked at the cost of a holiday for a family of four with two children aged seven and nine for the first week in July, which is in term time, versus the first week in August. The cost of the same one week holiday in Spain rose from £1,508 to £2,855, which is an increase of £1,347. The price of a holiday at CenterParc in Wiltshire rose by £860 to £2,448, while the figure for Disneyland Paris went up by £369 to £2,827. Price hike: A survey by Nationwide found that a holiday to Disneyland Paris for a family of four, with two children aged seven and nine, went from £369 in July to £2,827 in August . The research suggests that parents try to take children out of school at a time when it least affects their education. Some 57 per cent took them out at the end of term, compared with 18 per cent who chose the start of term and 17 per cent who went for a mid-term break. The vast majority of parents – 72per cent – said the sole reason for doing so was because of the cost. Some 62per cent of the children taken out of lessons were at primary school, compared to 32per cent at secondary school. Nationwide’s Director of Banking, Graham Pilkington, said: ‘People are used to tightening their belts now, so even though the economic recovery is well underway, families baulk at paying a premium for vacationing during school holidays. 'However, schools and local authorities are getting tougher on parents who take their children away during school time, with the threats of fines and even prosecution.’
One in five are telling lies by saying their child's absence is due to illness . More than 70% say holidays cost too much during the summer break . Tough line on punishing parents has been brought in by Michael Gove . Current penalty for parent if their child's absence is not authorised is £70 . However this can be increased to £2,500 if the case reaches the courts .

The parents of American aid worker Peter Kassig today released a YouTube video begging his ISIS captors to 'show mercy' and free him. Ed and Paula Kassig, from Indianapolis, made the emotional plea just one day after the 26-year-old war veteran was threatened with death in graphic footage filmed by the terrorist group. Referring to his son as Abdul-Rahman - a name he took having converted to Islam while imprisoned - Mr Kassig said: 'We implore his captors to show mercy and use their power to let our son go.' The school teacher, who was filmed on a sofa alongside his wife, continued: 'Our family deplores all human suffering and the loss of innocent life, no matter who is responsible. SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO . Emotional plea: Ed and Paula Kassig today released a YouTube video (pictured) begging ISIS to 'show mercy' and release their 26-year-old son Peter, who was threatened with death by the terrorist group yesterday . Aid worker: Peter Kassig (left), who has been held captive by ISIS for the past year, first went to the Middle East as a U.S. soldier before returning as a medical worker. Right, he is threatened by an ISIS militant . 'We respond by trying to persuade aid and assistance. Our son was living his life according to that same humanitarian call when he was taken captive. 'We know that the Syrians have suffered. We also believe violence is not the solution to the problems that trouble us all.' Speaking directly to her son, Mrs Kassig, who was donning a headscarf and clasping a photo of the aid worker in her hands, added: 'We are so very proud of you and the work you have done to bring humanitarian aid to the Syrian people. 'Our hearts ache for you to be granted your freedom so we can hug you again and then set you free to continue the life you have chosen, the life of service to those in greatest need.' Desperate: Mr Kassig, who works as a school teacher, said: 'Our family deplores all human suffering and the loss of innocent life, no matter who is responsible.

While in Turkey, he founded SERA (Special Emergency Response and Assistance), a medically-oriented emergency relief group that serves refugee populations and internally displaced persons. It was while working on a project for SERA almost exactly a year ago, on October 1, 2013, when he was captured by members of ISIS as he headed to Deir Ezzor in eastern Syria. Yesterday, Mr Kassig was threatened with death in a chilling video showing the beheading of 47-year-old British aid worker Alan Henning. Humanitarian work: While in Turkey, he founded SERA (Special Emergency Response and Assistance), a medical emergency relief organization that serves refugee populations and internally displaced persons . Selfless: It was while working on a project for SERA almost exactly a year ago, on October 1, 2013, when he was captured by members of ISIS as he headed to to Deir Ezzor in eastern Syria . He was shown kneeling in the desert at the end of the footage, which saw a masked militant tell President Barack Obama that U.S. 'aerial bombardments' are putting them under strain. The militant added: 'It's only right we continue to strike the necks of your people.' Speaking of his son's achievements in today's YouTube video, Ed Kassig said: 'At an early age our son was inspired by his grandfather to do humanitarian work. 'When he saw the suffering of the Syrian people, he went to Turkey and founded an organisation to provide aid and assistance. Beheading: Yesterday, Mr Kassig was threatened with death in a video showing the beheading of 47-year-old British aid worker Alan Henning (pictured). He was seen kneeling in the sand at the end of the footage . 'He helped train 150 civilians in skills needed to provide medical aid to the people of Syria. This organisation gave food, cooking supplies, clothing and medicine to those in need. 'He grew to love and admire the Syrian people and felt at home there. Our son's journey culminated in him embracing Islam. Sadly, he was taken captive and is not free to continue his life's work serving the people of the region.' President: Barack Obama (pictured) has condemned the death of Mr Henning and urged that U.S. forces and its allies will bring his killers to justice . The beheading of Mr Henning yesterday followed the murders of three other hostages in similar circumstance: U.S. journalists James Foley and Steven Sotloff and British aid worker David Haines. U.S. officials have confirmed that Mr Kassig is being held by Islamic State militants, but have declined to give any more details of his capture. The aid worker's family said in a statement yesterday that they had stayed silent about this news 'at the wish of those who have held their son.' They also revealed that their son had converted to Islam while being held hostage. Former hostages told the family that Kassig's new faith has given him comfort during his long captivity. Last night, President Obama strongly condemned the death of Mr Henning and urged that U.S. forces and its allies will bring his killers to justice. 'Mr Henning worked to help improve the lives of the Syrian people and his death is a great loss for them, for his family and the people of the United Kingdom,' the politican said in a statement. 'Standing together with our U.K. friends and allies, we will work to bring the perpetrators of Alan's murder - as well as the murders of Jim Foley, Steven Sotloff and David Haines - to justice.' The President added that the U.S. and other nations will continue to take action to 'degrade and ultimately destroy' the Islamic State group. ED KASSIG: 'My name is Ed Kassig and this is my wife Paula. I'm a school teacher and my wife is a nurse who works with refugees. Our son is Abdul-Rahman, formerly known as Peter. He disappeared on October 1 of last year near Raqqa, Syria. 'At an early age our son was inspired by his grandfather to do humanitarian work. When he saw the suffering of the Syrian people, he went to Turkey and founded an organisation to provide aid and assistance. 'He helped train 150 civilians in skills needed to provide medical aid to the people of Syria. This organisation gave food, cooking supplies, clothing and medicine to those in need. 'He grew to love and admire the Syrian people and felt at home there. Our son's journey culminated in him embracing Islam. 'Sadly, he was taken captive and is not free to continue his life's work serving the people of the region. 'The driving force in our family has always been to serve others. Our son comes from two long lines of teachers and humanitarian workers. 'Our family deplores all human suffering and the loss of innocent life, no matter who is responsible. We respond by trying to persuade aid and assistance. 'Our son was living his life according to that same humanitarian call when he was taken captive. We know that the Syrians have suffered. We also believe violence is not the solution to the problems that trouble us all. 'There is so much that is beyond our control. We've asked our Government to change its actions, but like our son, we have no more control over the U.S. Government than you have over the breaking of dawn. 'We implore his captors to show mercy and use their power to let our son go . PAULA KASSIG: 'Dear son, we hope that you will see this message from me and your father. We are so very proud of you and the work you have done to bring humanitarian aid to the Syrian people. 'We were grateful and relieved to have received your messages earlier this year. We know you were very worried about your friend who was taken with you. He was released and is well. Please know that we are all praying for you and your safe return. 'Most of all, know that we love you, and our hearts ache for you to be granted your freedom so we can hug you again and then set you free to continue the life you have chosen, the life of service to those in greatest need.' 'We implore those who are holding you to show mercy and to use their power to let you go.'

Boys as well as girls should be given the HPV jab to prevent rising rates of cancer, according to experts. The vaccine is currently given to girls aged 12 and 13 to protect against the human papillomavirus, which causes cervical cancer. But the virus is actually thought to trigger 5 per cent of all cancers worldwide including those affecting 2,000 men a year. Girls aged 12 and 13 are currently offered the HPV vaccine to help protect against cervical cancer, which is caused by the human papillomavirus . A committee of experts working for the Department of Health are currently deciding whether boys aged 12 to 13 should also be offered the vaccine. Campaigners say it would save lives, avoid needless suffering and spare the NHS millions of pounds in treatment costs. The vaccines would be offered on a voluntary basis to boys at school and would cost the health service up to £22 million annually. HPV is spread via sexual contact and causes cervical cancer in women as well as cancer of the throat, anus and penis. The experts – the Joint Committee of Vaccination and Immunisation – met yesterday are expected to make a final decision next month. Girls aged 12 and 13 have been offered the jab on a voluntary basis since 2008 and around 80 per cent have it. Peter Baker, Campaign Director of HPV Action.org,  said it was 'blatantly unfair' that women were protected from cancers and other diseases caused by HPV infection while men were not. ‘Men will continue to die from HPV-related diseases unless the government acts to extend the national vaccination programme to all adolescent boys,’ he said. ‘This would only cost about £20-£22 million a year and, in the long run, save the money spent by the NHS on treatment as well as reducing human suffering. ‘If parents knew that their sons as well as their daughters could be protected from the virus that causes 5 per cent of all cancers, then I'm sure most would also agree.' Earlier this month MPs from the All-Party Parliamentary Groups on Cancer, Dentistry, Sexual and Reproductive Health, Men's Health and HIV and Aids said more than 2,000 cases of cancer in men each year in the UK were caused by HPV. In an open letter they wrote: ‘The long-term savings in treatment and care of men with HPV-related diseases would considerably outweigh the extra cost (about £20 million a year) of extending the programme.’ Dr Kate Soldan, head of HPV surveillance at Public Health England, the Department of Health agency in charge of vaccines said it would provide ‘few additional benefits.’ The Department of Health is currently debating whether to extend the vaccination programme to include boys aged 12 and 13, to help protect against HPV (pictured). The virus is linked to cancer of the throat, anus and penis - affecting around 2,000 men each year .

Questions: Jessica Chambers, 19, was found with burns on 98 per cent of her body on Saturday night . Police have made a desperate plea to the public for information after a teenager was found burned alive in a rural road in Mississippi in what they called a 'horrendous' case. Authorities have not made any arrests in the murder of 19-year-old Jessica Chambers, who was barely alive when first responders found her in Courtland on Saturday night. She died in hospital later that evening, with burns to 98 per cent of her body. At a press conference on Thursday, District Attorney John Champion said they have spoken to 'many, many' people but still feel like there is still a lot they do not know. 'There's just not a lot of street talk out there about who may or may not have done it,' he said. 'We feel like somebody out there has heard something.' Speaking with Assistant District Attorney Jay Hale, they said there were some rumors circulating that were not true, including that Chambers was still on fire when she was found. But it has emerged that the killer apparently got into the car before setting it alight. The teenager also had a large gash on her head. To piece together the last few hours of her life, investigators continue to pore over surveillance footage from a gas station where she was seen 90 minutes before her death. They are also looking at her cell phone, which was left behind at the scene. 'We're leaving no stone unturned at this point,' Champion added. 'This is an absolute horrendous case... This situation is about as bad as it comes.' Last moments: Jessica Chambers, 19, was caught on surveillance footage just 90 minutes before she was burned alive along the side of a rural road on Saturday. She is seen walking towards the store . Caught on camera: Jessica (seen left) then went into the shop and paid while three men chatted nearby . Scene: The gas station and convenience store Jessica visited before she was found severely burned along the side of a nearby road. The cashier claims Jessica told him she was 'going somewhere' The gas station surveillance footage shows her climbing out of her car, walking across the forecourt and stopping to wave at a friend, before walking off camera. She then returns to the store to pay. Convenience store manager Ali Fadhel, who served the teenager, told the Associated Press that Chambers came in frequently and he would often speak with her. According to Fadhel, Chambers was wearing a dark-colored sweater and pajama pants that looked like sweatpants. Chambers said she was going to make a stop before going home, Fadhel said. 'If she knew she had a problem with somebody, she would have told me,' Fadhel said. Chambers bought $14 worth of gas, more than the $5 or so she usually purchased, he said. 'I asked her, "Why are you putting so much gas?" She said, "I'm going somewhere",' Fadhel said. Authorities have not commented on the claims. On her way out, Chambers got a call on her cellphone, Fadhel said. When she left, she headed south on Highway 51, he said. Questions: While she was inside, a man (seen top right) filled up a gas can close to her car (the dark vehicle in the center) but he has been cleared. After going inside the shop, she drove off . Terrifying: She had told her mother she was going out to get food when she and her car were set alight . Crime scene: Yellow crime scene tape marks the location where the 19-year-old was found severely burned. Authorities are working to piece together the last hours of her life in efforts to catch who set her on fire . Grisly discovery: The teenager was barely conscious when first responders arrived to her car, which was on this bank, and she managed to whisper something - but authorities have not revealed what she said . About 90 minutes later, a motorist called 911 to report a burning car a mile away and first responders arrived to find the burned young woman. She was not covered in flames, as previously reported, authorities said at the press conference. She whispered something to one of the fire officers. Investigators have not revealed what she said but indicated that the final words may help find her killer, WMC reported. 'She was able to communicate. It was difficult,' said Jay Hale, an assistant district attorney who prosecutes cases in Panola County. Peter Odom, an attorney who has prosecuted some arson cases, told HLN's 'Nancy Grace' that investigators will be assessing the physical appearance of suspects. 'They're looking for someone with singed eyebrows and maybe burned hands. Because the burner often gets burned,' he said. Plea: District Attorney John Champion pleaded for information as he spoke at a press conference on Thursday . Tragic: Two years before Jessica's death, her older brother Ben (right) was killed in a car crash . Authorities said initial autopsy results reveal the girl died from severe burns that covered 98 per cent of her body. 'I mean it's bad,' DA John Champion told Fox. 'I have been doing this for 21 years and as far as the means of death it is certainly the worst I have dealt with.' Authorities are also looking into reports that she went to a party before her death, but they have said her appearance - pajama trousers and her hair in a bun - suggests she did not attend the party. Friends said that the family can't think of anyone that might have wanted to hurt Jessica, who didn't have a boyfriend and was not known to have been seeing anyone. They added that she had just started a new job at Goody's Department Store, which she loved. Lisa Chambers, the girl's mother, begged with anyone to come forward with any information they may have about the heinous crime. Heartbroken: Her mother, Lisa Chambers, sobbed as she pleaded with the public for information . Ripped apart: Her father Ben, pictured right, has also appealed for any information in her death . 'They have ripped everything I have,' she told Fox. 'She left to go clean out her car and was going to get [herself] something to eat.' Amanda Prince, who identified herself as Jessica Chambers' older sister, told CNN Wednesday night that the family is 'shocked, lost ... confused, angry, hurt.' Asked if she knew of anyone who had a grudge against her sister or might want to hurt her, Prince replied, 'No one. She was loved by everybody. I don't know who would want to do this or why.' Mississippi authorities say they have received offers to help from several agencies, including the U.S. attorney's office and the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. A candle-lit vigil will be held for Jessica on Saturday. Anyone with information on the murder should contact the Sheriff's Office at 662-563-6230. See below for video .

By . Daniel Mills . A collection of brightly coloured lights streaking across Australia's southern skies have been impressing sky watchers in Tasmania in recent months. The 'Southern Lights' can also be seen from Southern Victoria, New Zealand and Antarctica usually between March and September. It is the southern Hemisphere's equivalent to the Northern Lights. The mesmerising display of light-filled patterns, known as the Aurora Australis, is the result of a combination of natural forces occurring some 100km above the earth's surface. The streaks of greens, purples, reds and yellows are formed inside the Aurora Oval. This is where electrons emanating from the sun and gases in the upper atmosphere collide. The collisions produce electrical discharges which energise atoms of oxygen and nitrogen, causing the release of the multicoloured light seen in these pictures. Each colour is representative of a particular distance from the earth's surface, and the reason why Tasmanians are so best placed to view the spectacular light show is because of the state's location to the Earth's South Magnetic Pole. The best place to see an aurora is away from major urban light sources, on a clear, moonless night, when the Milky Way is clearly visible. There is no particular time frame of when Auroras occur, however the phenomenon could be as frequent as once a month over the next two to three years as the sun cycle reaches its 12 year peak . Auroras usually last several hours, and are best viewed on clear and cold nights and can bee seen most prominently from polar latitudes . The average Height of an Aurora Australis event is between 50 to 100km above the earth and the most common colours are Pale green and pink. The Most common shapes are . spiral curtains, arcs, or streamers . The best place to see an Aurora Australis is in southern Victoria, Tasmania, Antarctica and New Zealand . During periods of high activity, a single auroral storm can produce one trillion watts of electricity with a current of one million amps . The global distribution of auroral activity is an oval around the magnetic poles in both hemispheres. The other major light phenomenon is the Aurora Borealis which occurs in the Northern Hemisphere . To see the lights at their best you need to get clear of city lights and have a good view to the south. The best time to see them is an hour or two either side of midnight. The light displays begin as a red glow on the horizon and can rise up to 20 to 30 degrees above the horizon, taking on a more familiar green colour . Like Tasmania in the south, the best places to watch the Northern Lights (in North America) are in the northwestern parts of Canada, particularly the Yukon, Nunavut, Northwest Territories and Alaska. Hobart is the best place to view the lights because of its position in relation to magnetic south . The Aurora Australis is caused by plasma particles from the sun (part of the solar wind), which enter the atmosphere and collide with electrically charged particles .
The Aurora Australis or 'Southern Lights' is best seen in parts of Tasmania on a clear and cold night's sky . It is the Southern Hemisphere's version of the Aurora Borealis or 'Northern Lights' best seen in North America . The phenomenon occurs when electrons emanating from the sun and gases in the upper atmosphere collide . The result is this illuminating spectrum of green, purple, yellow and red lights streaking across the sky .

The father of the teenage girl who sparked an international manhunt when she and her boyfriend ran away to the the Dominican Rebublic to bring his daughter home. Ravil Gainiyev, the father of runaway teenager Indira Gainiyeva, appeared stony-faced as he arrived in the Caribbean to be reunited with his daughter. Indira, 17, and her boyfriend Edward Bunyon, 16, sneaked out of their boarding school and fled to the holiday island. Yesterday the young couple were pictured strolling in the sunshine at the five-star beach Occidental Grande resort in Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. However, their holiday romance has been well and truly cut short by the arrival of Indira's father, and Edward's mother Susannah Bunyan - who flew out earlier this week to bring the couple home. Mr Gainiyev, 50, who runs a chain of pharmacies in Kazakhstan had previously said that he now plans to take his daughter back to the central Asian country. Mrs Bunyan, 56, was spotted ranted at the pair after she was forced to fly to the Caribbean to find them. He hung his head while his frightened . girlfriend shook with fear as Ms Bunyan told them they 'are not lovers' and branded them 'laughing stocks' as they ate pepperoni pizza over lunch. On Tuesday Mrs Bunyan frogmarched the sheepish couple from their bolthole to a . taxi and reluctantly returned them to the luxury hotel where she had . checked in. She later accompanied them for a meeting at the police . station flanked by motorcycle outriders. Eddy and Indira Gainiyeva with his mother Suzannah Bunyan, berated the pair over lunch (not pictured here) about their week-long sojourn in the Dominican Republic . The sixth-formers, who were told off by his mother when she arrived, are now staying in this hotel with the furious parent . Escapade: The couple were finally found on Sunday night after running away together from their boarding school for a holiday because of Britain's dank weather . A chaperone, believed . to be Edward's older brother, has also been seen monitoring them. The pair are facing expulsion from the £30,000-a-year Stonyhurst College in . Clitheroe, Lancashire. Head teacher Andrew Johnson said he was 'delighted' they had been found, but has refused to discuss what might happen on their return.

They initially checked in to the Occidental Grande resort, where a week's stay costs around £1,600 and are believed to have spent . several days there quaffing cocktails and enjoying lavish meals. But as news of their escapades spread they checked in to a dingy £75-a-week apartment nearby. After . British police alerted Interpol, local officers spent days scouring 250 . miles of coastline packed with resorts. They were finally caught late on Sunday when plain clothes police found . them sitting at a beachside restaurant in the resort of Punta Cana. They had been stocking up on bread and water and dining at cheap beachside restaurants. Now the pair face being constantly monitored until they return home. The pair, who have been dating for . months, were seen in beachwear strolling along the ocean in Punta Cana . and eating outside the hotel - but always being watched. Ramon . Brito, spokesman for the local tourist police, said: ‘We located them . by tracing their credit cards. 'They spent Sunday night at the Sol Caribe . apartments, in the Los Corales resort in Bavaro. We confirmed that they . were there, contacted their parents, and the police went in to take . them to be reunited with their families. Romantic stroll: Runaways Edward Bunyan and Indira Gainiyeva walk along the beach in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, a day after they were found by police . ‘The . hotel owners won’t face any procedures – the youngsters came for a good . time and behaved well, so there was never any danger to them or . others.’ At . around 11pm on Sunday police moved in and picked them up. It is . understood that they are now in separate rooms at the Occidental and . that Mrs Bunyan will act as guardian to Indira for the journey back to . Britain later this week. Indira’s . father, Ravil Gainiyev, a businessman in Kazakhstan, said: ‘Everything . is under control. We now want to take Indira home, back to Kazakhstan.’ It is understood that he and Indira’s mother Firuza spoke to their . daughter by phone after she was found, but they declined to talk about . the call. Punishment: The pair's school has not confirmed if they will be expelled or suspended, while Lancashire Police will also speak to them They are now in a five-star resort after briefly running off to some apartments . Serious: When police caught up with them they said they were 'having a great time and want to stay', but they will soon be back in the UK . In trouble: A man, who may possibly be from local police, leads them into a five-star resort as Eddy drags a small suitcase . Stonyhurst . college had earlier defended its security measures, saying they were . intended to keep out intruders, not to ‘imprison’ pupils. Lancashire . police said: ‘They will be given a welfare de-brief by police following . their arrival back in this country. This will signal an end of police . involvement in this matter.’ A source said: ‘Edward’s mother is very, very angry but also hugely relieved and wants to know what got into the pair. ‘She . desperately wants to know whether her son has been unhappy at boarding . school and whether he really wants to go back there. But she is also . very angry at what they did. We understand this stunt cost thousands of . pounds which he racked up on his credit card.

By . Jennifer Newton . Michelle Rossiter, who made up false rape allegations claiming she was abused by an innocent man from July 2010 to May 2011 . A woman has been jailed for three years after making up rape allegations against an innocent man. Michelle Rossiter, 34, made a series of false claims to police between July 2010 and May 2011, alleging she was sexually abused by the man, who cannot be named for legal reasons, for almost a year. She also produced false evidence to support her story, but later admitted to officers some of her claims were untrue. Rossiter, of Preston in Lancashire, denied perverting the course of justice but was convicted by a jury of 11 men and one woman at Preston Crown Court. Mark Humphries, deputy head of the Crown Advocate Unit for the Crown Prosecution Service North West said: 'She had the opportunity to withdraw the complaint but instead she went a step further and produced false physical evidence to support her allegations. 'She eventually admitted to falsifying some of the claims during a further police video interview some months later. 'In the meantime, an innocent man had been arrested, detained in police custody and questioned over an 11-hour period. He then had to endure the weight of allegations for a significant amount of time. 'The Crown’s case was that all of the allegations she had made were false. The jury, after carefully considering all the evidence at the trial, convicted her of perverting the course of justice. 'False allegations of rape have a devastating effect on those who have been wrongly accused, their family and friends and, potentially, their future lives. 'They also take up valuable police resources and have a detrimental effect on the public’s confidence in genuine reports of rape and sexual offences. 'The CPS and police take all allegations of rape and sexual offences extremely seriously and hope that this case will not discourage anyone from coming forward with genuine complaints to the police in the future. 'We will support victims of such offences in every way possible throughout the process.' But despite historically low conviction rates for rape, Valerie Wise, director of Preston Domestic Violence Service, said malicious allegations are rare. Rossiter was jailed for three years at Preston Crown Court, pictured, after being convicted by a jury of 11 men and one woman . She added: 'It is very regrettable when people make false claims but we should not get this out of proportion. 'I believe 99 per cent of people who make complaints are telling the truth but it is difficult to prove. 'We mustn’t let cases like this affect how rape cases are viewed. 'The fact is rape is massively under-reported because it is difficult to report and there is such a low conviction rate. 'I would urge the public not to believe that most people are making false claims. 'I think public perception is making it harder for victims. The CPS doesn’t proceed to prosecution if they believe there is a less than 50 per cent chance of conviction - the standard is very high.' A spokesman for Lancashire Police added: 'In instances where the evidence suggests malicious allegations are made, then consideration will be given to prosecute. 'Lancashire Police would always urge all genuine victims to come forward and report any cases of sexual offences and we assure them that all reports are investigated fully.'

Nacer Chadli has backed Harry Kane for a senior England call-up despite admitting he had never heard of the young striker before joining Tottenham. Kane's free-kick winner at Aston Villa on Sunday was his seventh goal in his last seven games and eighth of the season. He has nine England Under-21 caps and six goals after helping Gareth Southgate's side to Euro 2015 qualification last month. Harry Kane's deflected free-kick gave Tottenham a last-gasp victory at Aston Villa on Sunday . Kane is chased by his team-mates after scoring the winner in the last moments of the game at Villa Park . Roy Hodgson's senior side host Slovenia in a Euro 2016 qualifier before a friendly in Scotland in two weeks and Chadli believes his team-mate deserves a call-up. He said: 'Why not? It is up to him and the manager of the national team. He has a lot of quality and he can have some impact in the game. 'He practises a lot of free kicks like that in training. He has a great shot and he still practises it. That is good, he is a young talented player. I am very happy for him and pleased for him that he made an impact.' But the Belgium international, who scored Tottenham's first at Villa Park, admitted he did not know who the Spurs academy graduate was when he arrived from Twente last year. 'When I came to Tottenham I had not heard of him. But I am used to training with him and I can see that he is a very talented man and I can see that he has a great future,' he told reporters. Nacer Chadli looks to advance beyond Matthew Lowton in the game at Villa Park on Sunday . Chadli scored with six minutes remaining to make it 1-1 against Aston Villa . Chadli and Kane netted in the final six minutes in the 2-1 win on Sunday as boss Mauricio Pochettino resisted calls to start the latter. He has been the key man for Spurs in cup competitions, scoring a hat-trick against Asteras last month, but is yet to start in the Barclays Premier League this season. And Chadli admitted Pochettino will find it hard to leave the 21-year-old out for the Europa League trip to Asteras on Thursday and Saturday's league visit of Stoke. He said: 'Everybody gets time to play as we play in the Europa League, in the Capital One Cup, the FA Cup soon and the Premier League, so there are a lot of competitions. Everybody gets to play minutes. So the manager has choices.'

(CNN) -- Google Maps are getting personal. The next version of the widely used maps tool, previewed on Wednesday at the Google I/O conference in San Francisco, will soon have a different look and some splashy new features including displays of real-time accidents and personalized recommendations. The new Maps is only in beta, but people interested in testing it can sign up for an invitation at google.com/maps/preview. Here's a closer look at the new upgrades: . Customized maps . Each click subtly alters the map so it displays more personalized information, highlighting things that are relevant specifically to the person searching and what they're looking for. Click on a sandwich shop and a box appears showing details such as reviews from Zagat and your friends. Related eateries nearby pop up on the map. Using your search history, reviews and network of friends, Google makes recommendations of places it thinks you will enjoy. The more you use the map, the more data it collects for these types of recommendations. Google is also adding offers for companies like Starbucks, so when you look up where the nearest coffee shop is you can stumble into a coupon for $2 off your next Frappuccino. Smarter navigation . Navigation has always been one of Google Maps' strong points, particularly when it comes to alternative forms of transportation like public transit and biking. A collection of navigation improvements focus on finding the best, speediest route to a destination in real time. Not sure if you should bike, drive or take a train? Maps has a new schedule viewer that lines up all the options to help you decide. It will no longer be necessary to do a search for a start or end address -- you can click on the map and instantly see the driving routes. Car accidents will appear on the map in real time. Live updates on road conditions have been popular with drivers, as we've seen with Waze, a popular navigation app that crowd sources road information. Google will also add dynamic rerouting, automatically finding an alternate route that avoids traffic-slowing incidents. Graphic redesign . The redesigned Maps will let Google's sleek-looking maps and vast library of photos shine. Text takes a back seat in this version. Images from Google Street View, user-submitted photos and fun Google projects like underwater view and interior 3-D tours are all highlighted, while the map itself fills the page. The final, neatest new feature is also the least practical. Zoom all the way out on Google Maps and you'll see the Earth floating in space against a backdrop of stars. The cloud cover moving over the planet, as well as the position of the sun and stars, are all shown as they are in real time. Google Maps has clients that pay to use the maps data in their own products, like mobile apps and websites, often designing and creating their own unique offerings. The updates, along with other under-the-hood improvements, will be available to these more than 1 million products that use Google Maps data over the next few months.

MARTINSBURG, West Virginia (CNN) -- Hardly a day that goes by that you won't find Tracey Wygal working out at the gym. Tracey Wygal weighed 295 pounds before starting a "clean diet," keeping a food journal and exercising. The 30-year-old middle-school teacher does cardio exercise, strength trains and follows what she calls a "clean diet." That's quite a change for a woman who tipped the scales eight years ago at 295 pounds. Wygal first started gaining weight in her early teens. A fast-food diet and little to no exercise helped her pack on the pounds, and her weight ballooned to over 200 pounds. "It was my first year out of college, and that number, along with being diagnosed as morbidly obese, was very frightening," remembers Wygal. "I went to several doctors, trying to get them to prescribe a weight-loss pill." But none of her doctors would give her the quick fix she was looking for. Instead, a physician handed her a 1,600-calorie-a-day diet and told her to start moving. At first, Wygal was shocked and refused to begin a diet that she thought was too restrictive. Even though her weight was rapidly approaching 300 pounds, she believed she had a pretty good diet and an active lifestyle. As her weight crept up, Wygal grew more frustrated, and eventually she decided it was time to gain control of her life. She started by keeping track of her daily calorie intake in a food diary and soon realized that her eating was worse than she thought. Watch more from Tracey Wygal on her weight loss success. » . "I was amazed by how many calories I was eating," Wygal said. "The food diary showed me that I really needed to get my food intake under control and helped me maintain my diet realistically." She also started exercising. At first, Wygal says, she was too embarrassed to go to a gym, so she bought an elliptical machine and started working out 15 minutes a day in her apartment. "It was all I could do at first. I didn't give up, though," she said. "Gradually, my endurance improved. After losing about 30 pounds, I decided to join a small gym." Several months later, Wygal was ready to take the next step. She hired a trainer and began a short strength-training program. That's when something clicked. Instead of feeling intimidated, Wygal started to love her workouts and the physical changes taking shape with her body. Ready to take the next step, she joined a larger gym, began researching different workouts and got into weight training. Over the next three years, she lost 120 pounds and dropped seven dress sizes. Wygal, who's 5 feet 10 inches tall, says the fear of gaining weight motivates her to stick to her diet and exercise regimen because she never wants to look like she did at 295 pounds. Now comfortable with her weight, which she says fluctuates between 170 and 180 pounds, Wygal works out at least five to six days a week. She says the key to losing weight and keeping it off is being honest about what you eat, writing it down and staying consistent. She wants people to know they can do it, but there are no quick fixes or easy outs -- just hard work. "It won't happen overnight," Wygal advises. "Know that it will take time but it is worth it in the end." iReport.com: Have you lost weight? Send your story, photos and video . CNN Medical News producer Matt Sloane contributed to this report.

By . Toni Jones . This party season sees the introduction of the turbocharged Bloody Mary using ingredients such as Horseradish-infused vodka at London's 69 Colebrooke Row (pictured) It's almost the most wonderful time of the year and for many of us that means a brilliant excuse to overindulge, party on a school night and mix our drinks with merry abandonment. Which is great. Until the morning after. After many years of research we know that festive hangovers don't get any easier with practice, but instead of telling you to drink a glass of water for every glass of alcohol, or make sure you get eight hours of sleep (yawn) we think it's much more practical to offer advice on how to turn around the terrible hangover you had so much fun creating. Step up, the Bloody Mary. A cocktail . classic that has magical healing properties, aka a dash of breakfast . booze to help clear the heaviest of heads. Plus the tomato juice mixer . counts as a health drink and one of your five a day (we think). Before . you run to Tesco and start mixing your own though it is important to . remember that not all Bloody Marys are created equal. Most bartenders . have their own special recipe and this season ambitious mixologists have created some seriously wonderful and weird concoctions based on the classic. So much so that this week our favourite . drink (and therefore hangover) specialist BarChick is celebrating the breakfast cocktail in all its scarlet glory on her site. She says: 'There’s only one thing worse than a bad Bloody Mary: a Virgin Mary (or as the Aussies say, a Bloody Shame). BarChick is big on brunch with all the bar hopping we do, so a healthy start to the day (with a little hair of the dog) is essential. 'Much more fun than a multivitamin/Berocca fix – BarChick washes her milk thistle down with a Bloody Mary. Always open to experimentation with this British classic, just don’t try and fob us off with a bottle of Big Tom.' From stuffed . chilli garnish to 'celery air' and steak juice, BarChick has hunted down the UK's best . hangover-busting Bloody Mary recipes to inspire your taste buds and help heal your morning after heads. We can't promise they will make you feel 100% fresh, but at this time of year every little helps. 1. The Keep It Classic Mary . For a straight forward BM fix keep the over the top frills to a minimum and add a bit of interest with infused vodkas. Try a dash of orange juice and HP sauce like Jake at Portobello Star in Notting Hill or try a take on The Red Snapper from Mark Hix which uses Beefeater London dry gin poured with Sundance tomato juice, lemon juice, Tabasco sauce. Mega mixologist Tony C at 69 Colebrooke Row uses a homemade horseradish vodka mixed with pepper sauce and some pepper distillate (whatever that is), which seriously does the job. 2. The Quirky Mary . The Natalia Vodianova from Bob Bob Ricard in Soho uses clear tomato water (the juice of a tomato is actually a clear liquid, you can recreate at home with a bit of blending and a lot of straining) and makes for a much lighter drink if your stomach is feeling delicate. Prince Harry haunt Barts has a full Bloody Mary menu including a tomato-flavoured martini (hold the juice) and the Bloody Liability which includes Belvedere vodka, Bloodshot vodka, fresh . beetroot, lemon juice and honey. Garnished with green salad topped with . beetroot and parmesan shavings. Barts in Chelsea favours a Bloody Mary Martini, hold the juice (l) while The Bloody Caesar at Powder Keg Diplomacy features house cured maple bacon infused vodka and clam broth (r) 3. The Meaty And Fishy Mary . The Bloody Caesar at Powder Keg Diplomacy is made with house-cured-maple-bacon-infused vodka, a classic spice mix, lemon, Clamato juice, tomato juice and clam broth, garnished with a strip of crispy maple cured bacon. For a more intense take on the drink the Meaty Mary uses vodka infused with Sunday’s topside of beef plus a splash of Sunday roast gravy. Steak restaurant The Hawksmoor also add meaty juices to their recipes and their award-winning Pete’s Tabasco 2010 uses the bacon cooked clam broth straight from the kitchen. 4. The Garnished Mary . For fish fans the Bonnie Gull at Bonnie Mary's comes with infused vodka, gin OR tequila garnished with an oyster or if you're feeling brave take inspiration from the Southsider Cocktail Club who use Beef Jerky Infused Gentleman Jack Whiskey ,Yellow Tomato Juice, Lime Juice, Tobasco Habenero Sauce, Bitter Truth Celery Bitters and Worchester Sauce served in a soup can finished off with a Feta Stuffed Red Chilli. The Beard to Tail Marvellously Bloody recipe (l) is sure to grow a few hairs on your chest with a mixture of Jack Daniel’s, tomato juice and a garnish of pork crackling while Bonnie Mary's Bonnie Gull (r) is simply delicious served with an oyster . 5. The Spicy Mary . A big night demands a big remedy and the Beard to Tail Marvellously Bloody is sure to grow a few hairs on your chest: A mixture of Jack Daniel’s, tomato juice, Worcester sauce, mixed chilli spice, smoke paprika, port, fresh lemon juice and topped off with a garnish of pork crackling. The Engineer in Primrose Hill used to have Kate Moss as a regular so they must know what they are doing. Their exotic-tasting BM is made with their own chilli and rosemary infused Triple Distilled Smirnoff Black and a base mix of spices, Worcester sauce, Tabasco, wholegrain mustard, Dijon and black peppercorns. To seal the deal the bartenders ‘garnish the hell out of it’ with tomatoes, cucumber, mozzarella and whatever else they can get their hands on. This can be adapted at home according to your quease levels. The award-winner: The Connaught's impressive concoction features a touch of naga jolokia, the hottest chilli in the world . 6. The Award-Winning Mary . For those mornings when only the best (and somebody else making it) will do then call in late to work and head to the creme de la creme of the cocktail world for breakfast. As winner of the Tabasco British Bloody Mary challenge the Artesian bar's Roman Foltan is the man to save you with a killer drink. His Smoked Bloody Mary uses Ketel One vodka infused with lemongrass smoke mixed with their signature spiced tomato with a side of pickles and oyster leaves. Or try The Connaught, who are always winning awards, with their mix of tomato juice, lemon, coriander, salt, pepper and a touch of the hottest chilli in the world, the naga jolokia. It’s served with what they call “celery air”, by running the celery through a juicer, then foaming it, they are able to get a full aroma of celery and the whole thing is finished off with a light grating of nutmeg. Job done. For more cocktail inspiration visit BarChick.com .

Facebook has revealed it now has 1.39 billion users, with 890 million people using the site every day. For the seventh quarter in a row Facebook also beat profit and revenue forecasts, continuing to win more mobile advertising revenue as most users shift to using the site on smartphones and other portable devices. The world's biggest online social network said Wednesday that advertising revenue jumped 53 percent to $3.59 billion for the fourth quarter — with mobile ad revenue representing 69 percent of the total. Thumbs up: Facebook had 1.39 billion monthly active users at the end of the year, up 13 percent from a year earlier. It had 1.39 billion monthly active users at the end of the year, up 13 percent from a year earlier. Daily users totaled 890 million, up 18 percent. Mobile monthly active users jumped 26 percent to 1.19 billion. Site has 3 billion video views a day . That percentage has grown steadily in each quarter of this year. 'We got a lot done in 2014,' said Mark Zuckerberg. 'Our community continues to grow and we're making progress towards connecting the world.' Zuckerberg also said making money is 'not all we care about.' 'Our mission is to connect the world. 'It's important investors understand that.' Facebook's massive user base also continued to climb. It had 1.39 billion monthly active users at the end of the year, up 13 percent from a year earlier. Daily users totaled 890 million, up 18 percent. Mobile monthly active users jumped 26 percent to 1.19 billion. 'The bigger Facebook gets, it cements its position as one of the most dominant players in digital media, and it has the size and reach to change the rules of digital advertising and convince others to play by them,' says Debra Aho Williamson, an analyst at research firm eMarketer. Facebook, which turns 11 years old this year, began offering mobile ads in 2012, the year its stock began publicly trading. More recently, Facebook expanded into video ads, which are very lucrative, and last year it re-launched Atlas, a tool for marketers to better target people across 'devices, platforms and publishers' and to measure how well the ads work. The company is still a long way from catching up to rival Google in the digital advertising market, though. In 2014, Facebook had a nearly 8 percent share of the market compared with Google's 31 percent according to eMarketer. That's an increase for Facebook and a slight decrease for Google from 2013. After paying preferred dividends Facebook earned $696 million, or 25 cents per share, in the October-December quarter, up from $520 million, or 20 cents per share, in the same period a year earlier. 890 million people use Facebook every day, the new figures show . Adjusted earnings totaled 54 cents per share. Analysts, on average, were expecting adjusted earnings of 48 cents per share, according to FactSet. Revenue grew to $3.85 billion from $2.59 billion a year earlier, also topping analysts' $3.78 billion forecast. Sterne Agee analyst Arvind Bhatia says the company has 'made it clear' that it expects revenue growth rates to slow due to tough comparisons, but added that this 'should not be a big concern, especially for long-term investors.' Facebook, which owns the popular photo-sharing app Instagram and the messaging service WhatsApp, has launched stand-alone mobile apps of its own, in a move that helps it take up more real estate on people's phones. Revenue grew to $3.85 billion from $2.59 billion a year earlier, also topping analysts' $3.78 billion forecast. Besides its Messenger app, though, these apps have seen limited success. CEO Mark Zuckerberg has promised that Facebook will continue investing in new areas that might not pay off for a long time. This includes its purchase of Oculus, a small company that makes virtual reality goggles, last year. The company's ambitious project, Internet.org, meanwhile, aims to connect everyone on Earth to the Internet. Zuckerberg said recently that it's a misconception that Facebook does everything for business reasons. 'I can promise you that if what I cared about was making more money, I would take the engineers and the people who are working on Internet.org and spreading connectivity around the world and have them go work on our ads product,' he told an audience recently in Bogota, Colombia. The firm has also seen a huge rise in the number of mobile users . Case in point, costs and expenses for the fourth quarter rose 87 percent to $2.72 billion from a year earlier. Shares of Menlo Park, California-based Facebook are down less than 2 percent year-to-date. The stock closed up 49 cents at $76.27 before the report and slid about 9 cents after the bell. Over the past 12 months, the stock has gained about 39 percent, compared with a 13 percent increase for the Standard & Poor's 500 index. Sorry we are not currently accepting comments on this article.
Seventh quarter in a row Facebook beat profit and revenue forecasts . Mobile monthly active users jumped 26 percent to 1.19 billion . Profits reached $696m (£458m) - a 33% increase . Site now has 3 billion videos viewed every day .

By . Oliver Pickup and Tom Worden . Last updated at 12:11 PM on 10th August 2011 . A British tourist has been found drowned in a swimming pool at popular summer holiday destination Ibiza, and is the fifth young UK holidaymaker to die on the island this summer. Christopher Barrington died in the swimming pool at the three-star, £130-a-night Hotel Puchet in the party resort of San Antonio, where some of the world's biggest DJs spin. The 31-year-old was pulled unconscious from the pool at 4.30pm yesterday and despite the best efforts of the paramedics, who tried to revive him, he died poolside. The 31-year-old Brit was found drowned in the swimming pool at three-star Hotel Punchet in San Antonio . Revellers flock to the chill-out zone in San Antonio Bay, Ibiza - five Brits have died on the island so far this summer . It is understood that Mr Barrington was not a guest at the 212-room hotel - he was, in fact, residing at the two-star Hotel S'Anfora close by. Police are investigating why he was in the pool at the Puchet. 'A 31-year-old British tourist died in a hotel swimming pool on Tuesday afternoon,' a spokesman for the Civil Guard, investigating the death, said. 'We believe he drowned. We are waiting for the results of a post-mortem examination. At this stage we do not know what caused him to drown.' Earlier this month, on August 1, Barry Hesford, from Craigend in Glasgow, drowned in the pool of the Aparthotel THB Bahia in the same resort in similar circumstances. Barry Hesford, 21 (left), died earlier in August after being found dead in a swimming pool in Ibiza and 23-year-old Sam McCaughey (right) died after falling from the balcony in the San Antonio coastal resort . The 21-year-old was pulled from the pool unconscious and efforts by paramedics to revive him were unsuccessful. In addition, three Brits have died on the Balearic island this summer season after falling from terrace balconies. The 23-year-old Samuel McCaughey fell 20 feet from the balcony of his holiday apartment on July 29. Also Roberto Marcuccio, 24, was killed after dropping 30ft from a hotel balcony in San Jose on July 1. And Jodie Taylor, 25, plunged from the third floor of the Hotel Galera in San Antonio on July 23.
Another Brit was killed in similar circumstances . Three others fell to their death falling from balconies .
