If the team with momentum hold an ace card heading into the play-offs, then watch out for Wolves. Kenny Jackett’s team moved into sixth place in the Championship with a fourth successive victory after David Edwards, the substitute, headed home two minutes from the end of an unpredictable and thrilling game. Pre-match results had offered Wolves a prospective route into the play-off zone, with Brentford and Ipswich Town dropping points unexpectedly, and Kenny Jackett reflected the burgeoning confidence within Molineux by naming an unchanged starting line-up from the side that prevailed 2-1 at Nottingham Forest on Friday for a third successive victory. Wolves substitute David Edwards races away in celebration after scoring a late winner . Edwards is congratulated by his Wolves team-mates following his 88th-minute winner against Leeds . Wolves striker Benik Afobe slides on his knees after scoring his side's third goal of the afternoon . WOLVES (4-4-2): Ikeme; Iorfa, Batth, Stearman, Golbourne; Henry (Van la Parra 78mins), McDonald, Price, Sako; Afobe, Dicko (Edwards 70) Subs not used: Kuszczak, Doherty, Doyle, Ebanks-Landell, Hause . Booked: Golbourne, Batth . Goals: Dicko 19, 45, Afobe 48, Edwards 88 . LEEDS (4-1-4-1): Silvestri; Wootton, Bamba, Cooper, Berardi; Murphy; Byram, Phillips, Mowatt, Taylor; Antenucci (Sharp 82) Subs not used: Taylor, Ngoyi, Cani, Doukara, Sloth, Del Fabro . Booked: Wooton, Byram, Bamba . Goal: Taylor 11, Batth OG 65, Mowatt 74 . Referee: David Coote . Attendance: 25,169 . With a day less to recover, Leeds had also been on a decent run before Saturday’s 3-0 home defeat by Blackburn Rovers topped another distressing chapter in their tumultuous recent history. Neil Redfearn, the head coach, had said he would consider his future after this game at Wolves after his assistant Steve Thompson had been suspended without explanation. Although Massimon Cellini, Leeds’ banned owner, has subsequently claimed Thomson had used abusive language towards sporting director Nicola Salerno, it was only another spanner in the works for this once-proud club who need stability more than anything. Still, it was Leeds who struck the first blow, courtesy of a poor defensive clearance from Kevin McDonald who, penned back towards his own corner flag by debutant Kalvin Phillips, attempted a loose clearance that cannoned off Richard Stearman, his own team-mate, for Charlie Taylor to sidefoot under Carl Ikeme. Even before the January arrival of Benik Afobe, now level with Harry Kane as the leading goalscorer in all four divisions, Wolves have happily relied on either and both of the Mali combination of Bakary Sako and Nouha Dicko. It was the latter who earned Jackett’s team the lead by half-time. Dicko equalised from the tightest of angles when a cross-shot from Afobe, all loping legs and dizzying stepovers, eluded Marco Silvestri. It still needed a cute finish as the former Wigan striker lifted his shot over Scott Wootton from the byline for his 12th goal of an increasingly impressive season. Alex Mowatt looks delighted after putting Leeds back on level terms by scoring his side's third goal . Wolves goalkeeper Carl Ikeme dives in vain as Mowatt makes it 3-3

Summary: David Edwards scored in the 88th minute to give his side the win . Wolves raced into 3-1 lead before Leeds pulled back two-goal deficit . However Edwards scored late on to ensure Wolves moved up to sixth .


Condemned Bali Nine pair's ongoing battle to spare their lives has moved to Indonesia's constitutional court, a challenge that has been labelled as a delay tactic. Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran lost a bid to challenge their clemency rejections in the state administrative court, which upheld its earlier decision that presidential decrees were outside its jurisdiction on Monday . As Jakarta waits on the legal efforts of a few other prisoners before setting an execution date, the two Australian's lawyers sought a constitutional court review to make clear the president's obligations on considering clemency on Thursday - a process that could take several months. Andrew Chan (left) and Myuran Sukumaran (right) are now appealing to Indonesia's constitutional court . Attorney-General HM Prasetyo has declared the move by the pair's lawyers as a delay tactic . They also intend to challenge the barrier preventing foreign citizens from constitutional court appeals. However, Attorney-General HM Prasetyo has dismissed the challenge as delaying tactics and says he won't recognise it. Indonesian lawyer for the death row pair, Inneke Kusuma, told reporters the effort was not aimed at delaying the executions, but clarifying a prisoner's rights. The president's obligations when assessing a prisoner's life were unclear, she argued, such as the weight that should be given to rehabilitation. 'This judicial review won't delay the executions but we will tell the government please hold on until this process is done, because if the constitutional court accepts what we lodge, the documents, maybe there will be a new mechanism to consider their clemency,' she said. The pair's lawyers also intend to challenge the barrier preventing foreign citizens from constitutional court appeals . Sukumaran (left) and Chan (right) are now imprisoned on Central Java's Nusakambangan island where they face the prospect of death by firing squad . The lawyers' argument is that President Joko Widodo breached his responsibilities to treat the applications for mercy on their merits, instead rejecting them because he wishes to deny clemency to all death row drug offenders. Mr Prasetyo says the pair have already had their appeals and any constitutional court decision would only apply to future cases anyway - not that of the condemned duo. Meanwhile, his spokesman Tony Spontana said an execution date that avoids the Asia-Africa Conference was still being considered, when Indonesia plays host to various heads of state from April 18 - 24. Mr Spontana said although it was legal - it would not be ethical to carry out the executions while hosting the international event but they would continue to look for a 'good day' during this month for the prisoners to face death row. The Sydney men are now imprisoned on Central Java's Nusakambangan island where they face the prospect of death by firing squad. Two of the other eight prisoners in line for execution with the Australians have applied for Supreme Court judicial reviews, while another is also pursuing an administrative court case.

Summary: Bali Nine lawyers appeal to Indonesia's constitutional court for review . Indonesian Attorney-General dismisses challenge as a 'delay tactic' Three other death row inmates are currently appealing decision . Indonesia is still looking for date around hosting Asia-Africa Conference .


Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini has admitted for the first time he could be sacked if he finishes outside the Champions League places this season. Pellegrini’s side face West Ham United at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday with their top four prospects hanging in the balance. The Premier League champions have lost four of their last five games and Pellegrini said: ‘You are wrong if you think that, at this club, you are out if you don’t win the title. Manchester City midfielders Frank Lampard and David Silva take part in a training drill on Saturday . City will hope striker Sergio Aguero can add to his tally of 25 goals this season against West Ham . ‘(But) If we miss out (on the Champions League) then maybe it will be different because that would not be the same thing. ‘If that happens, the analysis of the season will be different. Not to play in the Champions League is a disaster.’ The Mail on Sunday can reveal that City have already talked to Borussia Dortmund manager Jurgen Klopp two years ago, when they were seeking to replace Roberto Mancini. In the end they rejected his flambouyant approach in favour of Pellegrini. With six matches left and the top-four positions still up for grabs, City are keeping their options open. The club are not guaranteeing the manager will survive but it does not appear they have already made up their mind to sack him as they did two seasons ago with Mancini. Their strategy was always to allow Pellegrini to continue until the end of his three-year contract in 2016 and then try and lure Pep Guardiola from Bayern Munich, whose own deal will be coming to an end in Germany. Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini wants a reaction from his players after the derby mauling . Veteran goalkeeper Richard Wright shows off his handling skills to current City No 1 Joe Hart . Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini has come under fire following their title race capitulation . However, dismal defeats at Burnley and Crystal Palace have placed serious question marks about Pellegrini's ability to motivate his top players. Yaya Toure and Vincent Kompany have endured poor seasons, new signings Eliaquim Mangala and Fernando have been disasters until now and even Sergio Aguero's form has deteriorated after being the stand-out player of the season until Christmas. Pellegrini is adamant he will not quit regardless of the pressure he has been under. 'I have walked away from a club once before, many years ago, but I would not quit here because it is a different case,' he said. Dejected Manchester City players look on as they are dealt yet another blow in their hunt for the league title . The reigning champions have slipped from serious title challengers to fears over not finishing in the top four . Kompany could have been sent off for a challenge on Daley Blind before being substituted last weekend . 'You don't quit just because it's a bad moment. I think we play the football I want,

Summary: Manchester City need to lift the gloom against West Ham on Sunday . The Blues aim the bounce back from 4-2 mauling by United in derby . City are fourth in the Premier League, four points above Liverpool .


Two men who claim they were molested as young boys by Michael Jackson are expected to find out on Tuesday if they will be allowed to sue for a slice of the late King Of Pop's $1.5 billion estate. Australian choreographer Wade Robson, once the singer's staunchest defender, now claims Jackson was a predator who repeatedly sexually abused him as a child. Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Mitchell Beckloff has scheduled a hearing for Robson and another of Jackson's alleged child victims, James Safechuck, on Tuesday that could decide if their respective claims proceed. Australian choreographer Wade Robson, once Michael Jackson's staunchest defender, now claims the singer was a predator who repeatedly sexually abused him as a child . Robson and Safechuck missed a statutory deadline when they filed their claims more than a year after Jackson's 2009 death. If Judge Beckloff gives Robson, 32, and Safechuck, 36, a green light to proceed with their civil claim, new child molestation allegations will likely be revealed in court against Jackson. Lawyers say the King Of Pop shelled out nearly $200 million to as many as 20 victims, reports the New York Post. The Jordan Chandler lawsuit alone is alleged to have cost more than $40 million. Safechuck, who says he met Jackson in 1987 when he was eight and was molested a year later, claims in court filings that Jackson held a secret wedding ceremony with a young Safechuck as his bride. Safechuck alleges the singer gave him a marriage certificate and a wedding band as keepsakes and confirmation of their 'undying love'. He also alleges that Jackson wrote a check for more than $1 million to Safechuck's father, a sanitation worker. James Safechuck, who says he met Jackson in 1987 when he was eight and was molested a year later, claims in court filings that Jackson held a secret wedding ceremony with a young Safechuck as his bride . 'Jackson was successful in his efforts to the point that my client endured repeated acts of sexual abuse of a heinous nature and was brainwashed... into believing they were acts of love and instigated by James himself,' Safechuck's attorneys said in the filings. The singer regularly dressed Safechuck in clothes identical to his and would tell reporters Safechuck was his cousin, a former employee said. Safechuck's attorney alleges that Jackson molested Safechuck more than 100 times. Robson was a five-year-old dance prodigy in Brisbane, Australia, when he first met the singer. Prior to filing his civil lawsuit in 2013 he had been one of the pop star's biggest supporters, including testifying under oath at Jackson's 2005 molestation trial in California he was never abused by Jackson. Robson was a key reason for Jackson's acquittal. He now says he 'lived in silence and denial for 22 years' and alleges he was seven years old when Jackson first molested him. Former Jackson maid, Blanca Francia, left, is expected to testify that she walked in on the singer showering with and groping the then nine-year-old Robson and that she saw them semi-nude in bed together .

Summary: Wade Robson and James Safechuck hope to find out on Tuesday if they can bring a civil lawsuit against the late singer's estate . Both claim that the King Of Pop molested them as young boys . Their lawyers claim Jackson paid out nearly $200 million to as many as 20 victims . A judge's ruling on Tuesday could determine if more alleged victims come forward .


Eric Abidal believes that his former club Barcelona have the potential to secure a famous treble by winning La Liga, the Champions League and the Copa del Rey this season. Luis Enrique's side coasted past Paris Saint-Germain to take up a semi-final place in the Champions League, while they also sit top of La Liga and will take on Athletic Bilbao in the Copa del Rey final. Abidal was an integral part of Pep Guardiola's brilliant Barcelona team that swept the board to win six trophies in 2009 and he believes that the club could be on the road to rescaling those heights. Neymar scored twice as Barcelona beat PSG 2-0 (5-1 on agg) to advance to the Champions League semi-finals . Barcelona won the treble in 2009 and former defender Eric Abidal (right) says the current crop are on their way . Abidal, who retired last year, was speaking at the launch of the Eric Abidal Foundation in Catalonia . 'It is possible to achieve a treble but in football it is very complicated.' Abidal said. 'You can win the cup, the league and the Champions League but it only takes a minute for something to go wrong. I would like see Barca once again reach the level they had when we won 6 titles in 2009 and I think they are on this path. With the mentality that they have, working hard, taking it one day at a time, they can achieve these objectives. 'Barcelona are very much in form. They demonstrated that once again against PSG and I hope they will reach the final. I know the aims of this club and I know the team will be giving everything to be in that final.' Abidal did, however, warn that his former coach Pep Guardiola would be a formidable opponent should the draw pit Barcelona against Bayern Munich in the semi-final. 'The 6-1 win over Porto demonstrates that in football you really never know what will happen. This is the beautiful thing about the game. If Barca were to meet Bayern in the semi-finals, then they would really have to be on their guard and concentrate hard because Bayern are a very strong side. Neymar and Lionel Messi have impressed for Barcelona this season, along with striker Luis Suarez . Messi scored Barcelona's second goal against Manchester United in the Champions League final in 2009 . The former Barcelona defender, who retired last year, was speaking at the launch of the Eric Abidal Foundation in Catalonia. The charity is aiming to raise vital funds for research into cancer while it will also strive to improve the support network for families and children that suffer from the disease. Abidal was diagnosed with a cancerous liver tumour in March 2011 but fought the illness to star in Barcelona's 3-1 victory over Manchester United in the Champions League final at Wembley. However, the cancer resurfaced in 2012 when Abidal required a liver transplant - which was selflessly offered by his cousin Gerard. 'I feel very lucky to be here and to have

Teachers are helping pupils to cheat by giving advice during exams, wrongly bumping up marks and even writing coursework, it has been revealed. Tactics used to bend the rules were revealed by more than 500 whistleblowing teachers after an appeal by the exams watchdog. Ofqual found that one in five reported that colleagues had written sections of coursework, dictated essays or provided examples for students to copy. Teachers are helping pupils to cheat by giving advice during exams, wrongly bumping up marks and even writing coursework, it has been revealed (file picture) Details of the unethical techniques emerged at a Teacher Ethics In Assessment symposium at Oxford University. The Sunday Times reported that one teacher told Ofqual: ‘Giving students too much support in their coursework is a massive issue. It ranges from providing them with examples of good work, letting them copy others’ work [and] teachers standing over students telling them what to write.’ Another teacher said she was told she ‘would have to do it herself’ when she raised concerns with her head of department about her class struggling to produce work of sufficient quality. And 15 per cent said staff had given ‘hints’ or ‘pointers’ while invigilating exams. Glenys Stacey, Ofqual’s chief executive, said: ‘Teachers who bend the rules are deeply uncomfortable about it and do it in large part because of the pressure to get results.’ The latest Ofqual figures show 217 penalty notices were issued to schools and colleges for malpractice in 2013 – an increase of 61 per cent on the previous year.

The 15-year-old son of a Canadian diplomat plans to plead not guilty if charges are brought against him after an alleged drug deal in Miami turned into a gun battle that left his older brother dead and landed him in custody, where the teenager allegedly threatened to kill a police officer. Curt Obront, the lawyer for Miami Consul general Roxanne Dube’s surviving son, Marc Wabafiyebazu, called it a tragic case. Dube's ex-husband and the boy's father, Germano Wabafiyebazu, has said his 17-year-old son, Jean Wabafiyebazu , was killed when he went into a house to buy marijuana Monday, and that police arrested Marc.

Tragedy: Dr. Frederic Brandt was battling with extreme depression before his suicide on Sunday a police report revealed on Tuesday . Fredric Brandt was suffering suicidal tendencies for just 10 days before he killed himself, revealed the police report into the tragic passing of the celebrity plastic surgeon. Brandt was discovered hanged inside the garage of his Coconut Grove home by his friend, John Joseph Hupert, at around 9.15am on Easter Sunday morning. According to the police report, Hupert was concerned for his friend and was staying with the doctor because he was suicidal. The last time Hupert said he had seen Brandt alive was around 11.30pm on Saturday. The police report says that Brandt's psychiatrist Dr. Saida Koita had become so worried for her patients state of mind that she ordered Hupert to stay with him to monitor him. She also revealed she had him on daily medication and was seeing him everyday for therapy sessions. The news that Brandt had descended into severe suicidal depression only very recently comes after claims that the 'Baron of Botox' killed himself after a 'bullying' TV series penned by Tina Fey aired on Netflix. The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt premiered on Netflix on March 6 and features a character called, Dr Franff. Played by comedian Martin Short, Franff has a high-pitched laugh, a speech impediment and absurd habits like drinking from a surgical bag. His face appears to be a grotesque exaggeration of Brandt's own appearance. Indeed, sources close to Brandt said the doctor, who suffered from depression, told People magazine he was 'definitely hurt' by an apparent portrayal of himself on the Netflix show. The friend called the Kimmy Schmidt send up 'bullying,' but added that it did not cause his suicide. Sources were today opening up about how Brandt was wounded by the characterization - though they said that this suicide could not be pinned on one insulting TV show. A friend speaking to People said: 'It was making fun of him for the way he looked and it was mean and it was bullying. '...It wasn't the only thing troubling him, it was just one factor. It definitely hurt him. He was absolutely upset, who would want that? But that was not why he committed suicide. But it didn't help. Scroll down for videos .

Graham Leonard, pictured leaving court after admitting endangering an aircraft . A passenger who hijacked a plane's tannoy system while drunk to sing karaoke and then caused an airport to be evacuated could be handed a jail term. Graham Leonard, who was returning to Scotland after attending a Manchester United football match, grabbed the PA microphone on the private charter flight and burst into song for his fellow football fans after drinking beer and gin on match day. And after frustrating the cabin crew with his antics during the flight - including throwing a hot towel at one - he then caused part of an airport to be evacuated after deliberately setting off the fire alarm on arrival in Aberdeen. Sheriff Edward Savage said he was keeping 'all options open' and Mr Kelly to find out what impact a jail sentence would have on his client. 'I'm not entirely satisfied given the very serious nature of these matters that a financial penalty will reflect how serious these matters are,' said Mr Savage. 'I want to make it absolutely clear that I'm keeping all options open.' Leonard, 46, appeared at Aberdeen Sheriff Court yesterday where he admitted endangering the aircraft and its passengers as well as setting off the airport alarm knowing there was no blaze. The court heard that Leonard, from Newmacher, in Aberdeenshire, had been part of a group of Scots fans that had chartered an Eastern Airways flight to jet down to watch United's 3-0 league win over Tottenham on March 15 this year. They had been drinking beer and gin and tonics before leaving Aberdeen Airport, then spent the day meeting former players at a corporate event in a hotel in Manchester. Fiscal depute Karen Dow said that Leonard was one of three passengers that missed their ride back to the airport after the drunken day out. When he did eventually board the 9:17pm private flight from Manchester he started causing trouble for the cabin crew. Leonard was flying on a priavet charter Eastern Airways flight into Aberdeen Airport (file photo) Ms Dow said: 'During the journey the accused approached the complainer to ask if he could sing a song on the public address system. 'She said no and that was not permitted. The accused went to the PA mic and started singing. 'The complainer approached him and told him to stop and asked him to return to his seat. 'His behaviour persisted. This was frustrating for the complainer as it was part of the communication system used by the captain.' The court heard that the businessman, who owns a painting and decorating firm in Aberdeen, also repeatedly refused to sit down before throwing a hot hand towel at one of the stewardesses. Graham Leonard was returning to Scotland after watching Manchester United at Old Trafford, pictured . On arrival at Aberdeen International Airport he was seen 'talking' into the airport's PA system then activating a fire alarm.

In cold temperatures and with strong northerly winds, Spieth three-putted the sixth to drop his first shot of the day and looked lethargic as he missed birdie opportunities on the ninth and 10th greens. He dropped another shot on the 11th and on the par-three 14th he sent his tee shot straight into the water, setting up a double bogey that put him four over par. He pulled one back with a birdie on the par-five 15th, but nevertheless finished well off the pace with three-over 74 even as the conditions kept the scoring under control. The Masters champion finished well off the pace by carding a three-over-par 74 . After his round, Spieth told Sky Sports 4 he had no idea how many interviews and appearances he has made since Sunday. 'I've lost track,' he said. 'Just getting to experience all these incredible things, whether it's a business interview, a sports interview, appearing on Letterman (The David Letterman Show), meeting President Clinton, a lot took place and it's almost sad to leave. 'There were so many great experiences you'd like to have each of those each day, to have them all in one is almost a shame, but it's good sharing my story, sharing our story, getting our brand out there.' Spieth admitted lack of preparation affected his first round in South Carolina . Unless he has something very special up his sleeve for Friday, Spieth appears set for a much-needed weekend off. Matt Every and Graeme McDowell shared the lead on five under after the first round at Hilton Head. In difficult conditions, with strong winds and a distinct chill in South Carolina, birdies were hard to come by but Every carded six before a bogey on the 18th, while McDowell matched him only in reverse after bogeying the first. Given the way the course was playing, staying at the top of the leaderboard was as much about survival as anything. 'I was greasy today,' Every said on the PGA Tour website. 'It wasn't my best ball striking, it wasn't easy out there, but I got the best out of it. Graeme McDowell shared the lead on five under with Matt Every after the first round . 'It was blowing. Back in the trees, when it's coming from the north and banking off the trees going the other way, it's dicey, but for the most part I did a good job.' Sangmoon Bae is alone in third place, one shot back, ahead of a five-way tie

Summary: Jordan Spieth struggled on his return to action following Augusta triumph . The 21-year-old carded three-over-par 74 in first round at the RBC Heritage . He finished eight shots behind leaders Matt Every and Graeme McDowell .

It had all the trappings of a down-home country fair somewhere well below the Mason-Dixon line: Lynyrd Skynyrd medleys, mile-long lines for fried chicken, barbecue and draft beer, and a plethora of Confederate flags emblazoning everything from belt buckles to motorcycle vests to trucker caps. But Sunday's party marking the 150th anniversary of the end of the American Civil War took about 5,000 miles (8,000 kilometers) south of the South, in a rural Brazilian town colonized by families fleeing Reconstruction. For many of the residents of Santa Barbara d'Oeste and neighboring Americana in Brazil's southeastern Sao Paulo state, having Confederate ancestry is a point of pride that's celebrated in high style at the annual 'Festa dos Confederados,' or 'Confederates Party' in Portuguese. Proud heritage: Descendants of American Southerners wearing Confederate-era uniforms pose for pictures as they attend a party to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the end of the American Civil War in Santa Barbara d'Oeste, Brazil on Sunday . Thousands turn out every year, including many who trace their ancestry back to the dozens of families who, enticed by the Brazilian government's offers of land grants, settled here from 1865 to around 1875. They're joined by country music enthusiasts, history buffs and locals with a hankering for buttermilk biscuits or a fondness for 'The Dukes of Hazzard.' 'I don't speak English and the only place I've been to in the U.S. is Disneyworld, but I feel the heritage,' said 77-year-old Alcina Tanner Coltre, whose great-great-grandparents migrated from Mississippi along with their 15-year-old son. 'My great-grandfather married a Brazilian woman, so he integrated into Brazilian culture pretty quickly, but it's really important to me to come out every year to remember where we come from.' The party takes place up a dusty dirt road flanked on both sides by sugarcane plantations, in a field that abuts on the 'Cemiterio dos Americanos,' or 'American Cemetery,' which began as the resting place of the wife and two daughters of one of the first Confederados and still serves their descendants today. Amid food and beer stands bedecked with red-white-and-blue ribbons, extended families tucked into diet-busting barbecue and hamburger lunches as 'Dixie' played on a loop. Teenage girls pulled hoop skirts over their cut-off short-shorts and wiggled into bustier tops, taking to the stage painted with a giant Confederate flag on the arms of young men in grey and yellow Johnny Reb uniforms. The pairs solemnly presented the flags of the 13 Confederate states and square danced to raucous fiddle music. But for the abundance of glitter eye shadow and the modern tattoos peeking out from beneath the uniforms, the stage had a convincing 'Gone With the Wind' vibe. American visitors Rex and Gwen Gray, Civil War buffs who made the trip to Brazil from their home in Tucumcari, New Mexico, were sold. 'It feels really authentic,' gushed Gwen Gray, a 69-year-old retiree originally from Greeneville, Tennessee, explaining that she first read about the Confederados on a Facebook posting a few months ago. 'It piqued my interest because I've read a lot about the history of

Listening to The Beatles could help to enhance the enjoyment of a fish and chip supper, psychologists have found. Research suggests that certain types of music can bring out specific flavours - including sweet, salty and bitter - in a range of foods. The intensity of Nessun Dorma, performed by Luciano Pavarotti, is said to be the perfect accompaniment to dark mouse or coffee. Meanwhile, the high-pitched piano in Billie Holiday's Autumn in New York can help emphasise the autumnal flavour of a pumpkin pudding. Listening to the right sort of music, including the Beatles (pictured) can enhance flavours in certain food and drink, researchers have found . In the Ultraviolent restaurant in Shanghai, fish and chips (pictured) are served up to a backdrop of the Beatles . In Ultraviolent restaurant in Shanghai, fish and chips are served up to a backdrop of the Beatles, while in El Celler de Can Roca in Girona, Spain, scented meringue comes with a commentary describing Barcelona footballer Lionel Messi in action, a clip which apparently brings out the citrus flavours in the dessert. The so-called digital seasoning also applies to wine, helping drinkers to enjoy their tipple by up to 15 per cent more, if served alongside the right music. Researchers found people enjoyed their wine more while listening to 'paired' music, rather than while being sat in silence. Tchaikovsky's String Quartet No 1 in D Major particularly compliments Chateau Margaux 2004, while Mozart's Flute Quartet in D Major should be played while drinking Puilly-Fume. Professor Charles Spence, a behavioral psychologist from Oxford University, told the Observer's Neil Tweedle that taste is not as dominant as we might think in judging a meal and that our ears might subconsciously talk to our tastebuds. He said: 'Music cannot create taste or flavours that are not there in your mouth, but it can draw attention to certain notes in a wine or food that are competing in your mind... It's kind of digital seasoning.' The deep tones of Luciano Pavarotti (pictured left) singing Nessun Dorma can enhance the bitterness in coffee and the intensity in a chocolate mousse (pictured right) Mr Spence added that humans tend to match the same sounds to the same tastes. He described sourness as 'high-pitched', meaning it should be played alongside music of the same quality. He also said sweetness is associated with richer sounds, while bitterness is linked to deeper tones. He believes the sound associated with salty - which he has not yet pinned down - would be enhanced by a throbbing type of sound. 'Bitter, sweet, sour - we have those,' says Professor Charles Spence, 'But salty is the hardest taste to embody in sound.' To carry out his research, Mr Spence gives people two pieces of identical chocolate and asks them to each eat one while listening to a different piece of classical music. While the more sombre music is played, people generally describe the chocolate as more bitter. When they described the chocolate as 'sweet', it generally when the more upbeat piece was being played, he said.

Summary: Research suggests certain types of music can bring out specific flavours . High-pitched music highlights sourness while sweetness is a rich sound . Billie Holiday's voice can emphasise autumnal flavour of pumpkin pudding . 'Digital seasoning' can also help drinkers enjoy wine by up to 15% more .


An eight-year-old boy has been tested for every STD including HIV after he put a used condom in his mouth thinking it was a balloon. The boy picked up the unwrapped condom in his school playground at Bennett Elementary in Bennett, Colorado last week.

His mother, who did not want to be identified to protect her son, said that the school district was refusing to pay for the healthcare costs now that her son must be tested for all STDs . The single mom told ABC7: 'He's at risk for HIV, Hepatitis C, Herpes, Gonorrhea, Chlamydia.' She added that her son's life could be forever changed by what happened and he could face millions of dollars in medical bills. The mother received an email from the school informing her of what her son had come across in the playground. The condom was thrown in the thrash by a member of the teaching staff so could not be tested for potential diseases. The school yard does not have surveillance cameras or fences. Bennett School District Superintendent Dennis Veal would not say if the school district was liable for health insurance payments to cover the child's treatment. Daily Mail Online was awaiting a response from Mr Veal on Thursday. The Colorado School Districts Self Insurance Pool called the incident 'regrettable' but said it was not liable for damages.

Kitted out: Mr Carney out running in Hyde Park . Just how many water bottles does a man need when running? If you’re the governor of the Bank of England, the answer seems to be four. Mark Carney was spotted on a day off from helping to run the economy jogging in London’s Hyde Park sporting a high-tech running belt with no fewer than four water bottles. The keen runner, who training for the London Marathon later this month, was wearing a Nathan Speed 4 Fuel Belt, which also features a zip pocket perfect for storing high-carb energy gel packs. The belt is available for $64.95 (£35) at Kintec, a Canadian sports retailer based in Vancouver, suggesting Mr Carney, originally from Canada, bought it before he moved to the UK. He was also wearing headphones and top-of-the range running shoes. His adidas Energy Boost ESM Shoes, in green and black, cost £120. According to the manufacturer, ‘more boost beneath your feet means more fuel in your tank’. They feature a ‘form-fitting techfit® upper’ which is ‘engineered for natural, flexible support and a seamless, sock-like fit’, the firm’s website states. Mr Carney, in charge of the world’s sixth largest economy, completed his look with a grey jumper, which was drenched in sweat by the end of his training session. The father of four daughters, who turned 50 last week, is known to be a keen sportsman and likes to keep fit. At Harvard, he played in goal for his ice hockey team. In 2011, he completed in Canada’s Ottawa marathon, finishing the 26.2-mile sprint in just three hours and 48 minutes in 2011 – an hour and 40 minutes shy of the winning time that year. He continued running when he moved to London to become the Bank of England chief in 2013, and is known to sometimes run from his home to Bank’s headquarters in the City of London to avoid the traffic. ‘Like many other Londoners I do run to work or home from work from time to time,’ he said in an interview. He will be running the London Marathon in aid of Cancer Research UK, a Bank of England spokesman announced in January.

He said: 'I have lived here nearly all of my life and never had any problems before and I just don't understand why these people have targeted us. 'We just cannot believe what has happened.' Police have launched an investigation into the attack but said there appears to be no motive and it could be a case of yobs 'messing around'. The attack occurred just three weeks after the couple, who have no children and who met just 14 months ago, got married. They were writing thank you cards for the wedding gifts they had received when their home was targeted at around 11pm on April 18. Mrs Young, who works for The Alzheimer's Society charity, said: 'We were sat down writing all of the thanks you cards. 'It was the first time we had been in the house since our wedding and it was getting late, around 11.20pm.

New Jersey Senator Robert Menendez is facing the possibility of 15 years in prison for using his position to help a wealthy donor in exchange for nearly $1million in gifts and campaign contributions. The 61-year-old Democrat has pleaded not guilty to eight bribery counts related to his close personal friendship with eye surgeon Dr Salomon Melgen, 60, according to a 68-page federal indictment unsealed this month and detailed in the New York Post. Perhaps the most embarrassing of the accusations is that Menendez used his influence to get visas for married Melgen's multiple young lovers abroad - including a Brazilian model who posed on the cover of 'Sexy' magazine and a Ukrainian actress who moved to Florida to live in one of Melgen's homes. Scroll down for videos . Corrupt? U.S. Senator Robert Menendez faces the possibility of 15 years in prison if convicted of eight counts of bribery for using his political influence to help a wealthy donor in exchange for nearly $1million in campaign contributions and gifts . Melgen's ladies: According to an indictment unsealed this month, Menendez helped donor Dr Salomon Melgen bring at least three mistresses to the U.S. on visas - including Brazilian actress Juliana Lopes Leite (left) and Ukrainian model Svitlana Buchyk (right) Menendez and Melgen met at a fundraiser in 1993, shortly after Menendez was voted into the Senate. The two quickly became close, with Menendez being invited to fly on Melgen's private jet and visit his villa in the Dominican Republic on several occasions. According to the details in the indictment, Menendez began helping out his rich friend in 1998, when Melgen wanted to fly a 22-year-old girlfriend - identified as 'girlfriend 2 in court documents - and her 18-year-old sister from the Dominican Republic to spend Christmas with him in the States. Claiming innocence: Melgen has also been charged in the indictment, in addition to other Medicaid fraud charges, pleading not guilty to both. He is being held at the Federal Detention Center in Miami . Despite Melgen writing a letter to the embassy in Santo Domingo, the sisters' applications were initially denied due to the fact that they were unemployed and therefore more likely to overstay their visas. When Melgen found got the bad news, he reached out to his friend Menendez for help. Menendez then told his senior policy adviser Mark Lopes that he planned to personally call the ambassador and, if that didn't work, a contact at the State Department. An unidentified high-ranking member in the State Department allegedly responded by telling Menendez that he agreed with the visa decision. Nevertheless, a few weeks later the sisters were re-interviewed and this time their visas were approved. Lopes emailed a colleague after and wrote that it was 'ONLY DUE to the fact that RM intervened.' Menendez next helped Melgen in 2007, when the doctor was trying to get another young woman to visit him in the U.S. The woman identified as 'girlfriend 3' in court documents is described as a Ukrainian actress and model who was 20 years old and living

Some of the oldest surviving photographs of the Houses of Parliament and Windsor Castle, dating back more than 150 years, have been found. The remarkable images were shot by photographer Victor Albert Prout, who developed the negatives in an improvised dark room on board his punt which he sailed along the River Thames. And despite being more than 150 years old, most of the images capturing the iconic landmarks along the river are instantly recognisable today. Scroll down for video . Prout travelled along the River Thames in a makeshift boat where he installed a dark room (centre, front), capturing and developing his images on site, like this one of Windsor Castle (top right) Prout's collection is the oldest documented record of Britain's best known landmarks, such as Windsor Castle, seen from the banks today . A photo of taken of Richmond Bridge shows the familiar arches of the 18th century stonework, clearly recognisable today. While a picture taken from the banks of the Thames of Windsor Castle, showing Prout's floating dark room in the foreground, is remarkably similar to contemporary pictures of the iconic building. Another shows the Houses of Parliament in the 1850s when Henry John Temple The Viscount Palmerston was Prime Minister, and is strikingly similar to photos taken today. The pictures are to be sold as a collection at the Oxford Book Fair and are estimated to sell for around £30,000. Prout travelled around the Thames on his boat to capture images of the well known landmarks, developing them on the spot His floating dark room construction is often seen tethered to a skiff in some of the photographs. As an artist and photographer was renowned for his panoramic pictures, captured along the stretch of the River Thames - featuring images from the Houses of Parliament to Magdalen Bridge in Oxford. He was commissioned to take the collection of pictures for The Book of the Thames: From Its Rise to its Fall, by Mr and Mrs S.G. Hall. The photographer was known for his panoramic images, such as this one taken overlooking the River Thames, of Richmond Bridge . Richmond Bridge today is busier than the scene surrounding the 18th century stone bridge captured by Prout around 150 years ago . The buildings and riverside of Marlow was captured in a photograph taken by Prout, who then developed his pictures as quickly as he could . Today's picture of Marlow - with the church spire dominating - bears a striking resemblance to that taken by Proust, more than 150 years ago . The images, such as this of Iffley Mill, were saved by Prout in his book of pictures of the Thames in the mid 1850s and will now be auctioned . Some of the photos capture how the areas have changed, such as at Iffley where the watermill no longer stands after it was burned to the ground in 1908, having survived for almost 800 years . Prout's photography along the River Thames included this shot of Twickenham in the 1950s, with his darkroom boat in the

You don't become one of the most successful designers that Italy has ever produced without causing some controversy. But Giorgio Armani's latest comments will undoubtedly raise a few eyebrows. The 80-year-old fashion designer, who has dressed everyone from Beyoncé to Adele, has made a name for himself putting A-listers of all shapes and sizes in his creations, but it turns out he has harsh criticism for a few body shapes in particular. Scroll down for video . Giorgio Armani, 80, admitted in an interview that he disapproved of women with breast enlargements and men who worked out too much . In an interview with The Sunday Times, the Milan-born designer spoke of his disapproval of women who resort to breast enlargements, as well as men who work out too much. Armani, who has amassed a personal fortune of £5billion over the length of his 40-year-career, emphasised his appreciation of a 'healthy' look. He said: 'I don't like muscle boy. Not too much gym! 'I like somebody healthy, somebody solid, who looks after his body but doesn't use his muscles too much.' Interestingly, the aesthetic for the brand seems to somewhat differ from the designer's views - with several of the Armani underwear adverts featuring muscly boxer-clad male models. Kelly Brook's ex, David McIntosh, 29, is one celebrity that may not agree with Giorgio Armani's disapproval of men who work out too much . Jodi Marsh, 36, is another celebrity that would lock horns with Armani and his view of plastic surgery as 'idiocy' Interestingly, Cristiano Ronaldo, 30, has modelled underwear for Giorgio Armani before, showing off his unashamedly muscly body . The designer himself, who has never denied claims that he is gay, was also outspoken about the way that certain gay men dress. Mr Armani declared that a homosexual man doesn't need to dress in a camp manner.. He said: 'When homosexuality is exhibited to the extreme to say, "Ah, you know I'm homosexual," - that has nothing to do with me - a man has to be a man.' The Milan-born designer has never denied that he is gay, but in the interview he condemned men who 'dress homosexual' A Beyoncé fan! In the interview, Giorgio Armani admitted that he preferred the 'natural look' on women, rather than women with breast implants . And his criticism wasn't only reserved for men. When questioned on women opting for plastic surgery, the designer described it as 'idiocy... A small breast does not have to become big.' In the interview, the designer highlighted his appreciation of women with natural beauty, in particular those who chose to age gracefully. He said: 'I prefer to look at a natural woman. A woman should be courageous to become older, not be desperate to look younger than her age.'

Summary: In an interview, Armani, 80, described cosmetic surgery as idiocy . Believes women 'should not be desperate to look younger than her age' The Italian designer also said he didn't like men who looked too muscly .

A drugs charity has called on footballer Raheem Sterling to apologise to fans after he was filmed apparently inhaling legal high 'hippy crack'. Footage emerged today which appears to show the Liverpool and England winger breathing in the gas nitrous oxide before passing out as giggling friends look on. Drugs charity Re-Solv has called on the 'role model' player to condemn the use of the drug to deter young supporters from taking risks with their health. Footballer Raheem Sterling has been filmed apparently inhaling nitrous oxide - also known as 'hippy crack' The video shows him smiling and breathing in gas from a balloon before apparently passing out . The anti-drugs organisation's spokesman, Stephen Ream, told MailOnline: 'It's very disappointing from our point of view. He is a big role model and we hate to see this kind of stuff from someone of his status. 'Players in similar situations in the past have come out and apologised and we hope he does the same. 'Nitrous Oxide is not the most dangerous drug out there but there are deaths attached to it. There are risks and we would urge anyone tempted to take it not to do so.' Sterling's boyhood coach, Paul Lawrence, told the Evening Standard: 'He has got to be a lot more careful with what he is doing out in public... Maybe he has got to sit down and think he is a role model and in the public eye.' The video emerged just days after the England regular, 20, was pictured puffing on a shisha pipe said to be as strong as 200 cigarettes. In footage obtained by The Sun, Sterling is seen sucking on an orange balloon then laughing and giggling. When the camera pans back to him, he is either unconscious or has fallen asleep. It is claimed that the video was taken at his home in Southport. Sterling is not the first player to have been accused of using the drug. Tottenham's Kyle Walker and West Bromwich Albion's Saido Berahino have also appeared inhaling gas from balloons. Both later apologised for their actions and discouraged fans from using the drug. Drugs experts have warned revellers against inhaling nitrous oxide from balloons because it starves the brain of oxygen. Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has issued a warning to the forward, who scored in Liverpool's 2-0 win over Newcastle last night. It comes amid rumours the star is unsettled at Liverpool and recently turned down a £100,000-a-week deal. Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers (right) has said he'll talk to the star . Rodgers said: 'For me it is something that when you are a professional sportsperson at the top level of the game, I don't think it is something you should be doing. It is as simple as that. 'But I will speak to him on it, to see what he says on it. As you can imagine, I have only seen this today.' In 2013, England right-back Kyle Walker issued a grovelling apology after he was pictured inhaling the gas during an night out in Sheffield. He later

Carlos Tevez talks about being as free as a bird, back to the days when he was banging in the goals in Argentina for Boca Juniors. A big hit on the famous steeped terracing at La Bombonera as he followed in the footsteps of Diego Maradona, Claudio Cannigia and some of the other greats. Here in Turin he is worshipped at the Juventus Stadium, one of the idols in the shirt of the Bianconeri with that fearless, wholehearted approach to the game. Carlos Tevez (left) is worshipped by Juventus fans and has scored six Champions League goals this season . The Italian side are aiming to beat Monaco on Tuesday in their Champions League quarter-final first leg . On Tuesday evening, with six goals already in this season’s Champions League, he will be expected to deliver in the first leg of the quarter-final against Monaco. Juve are already on course for the Serie A title, 12 points clear of nearest rivals Lazio ahead of their meeting in the league this weekend. First though, Massimiliano Allegri’s team must find a way to beat Monaco, to secure a decent first-leg lead against the surprise quarter-finalists before the return in the Stade Louis II. At 31 Tevez appears to be enjoying his football again, helping Juventus to the title last season and leading the assault on the Champions League this term. Massimiliano Allegri is hoping to end 19 years of Champions League hurt by taking Juventus to glory . Monaco stand in Juventus' way; they were adventurous and audacious in their win over Arsenal in the last 16 . It is easy to knock Italian football, to place it behind England, Spain and Germany, but to do that would do a great disservice to this Juventus team. There are some formidable talents in there, with Gianluigi Buffon protected in his goal by the tough, uncompromising presence of Giorgio Chiellini, Andrea Barzagli and Leonardo Bonucci in their three-man defence. The prolonged absence of Andrea Pirlo, who has made five appearances in this season’s competition, has given others a chance to excel in the centre of this Juve midfield. Paul Pogba, one of the summer targets for Manchester United, is missing but Arturo Vidal, Roberto Pereyra and Claudio Marchisio all have pedigree. Tevez admits he feels free at Juventus, back to the days when he was playing for Boca Juniors (pictured) Monaco players train at the Juventus Stadium in Turin on the eve of their Champions League quarter-final . It has been 12 years since they last reached the Champions League final, when they were beaten by Milan on penalties during a dreadful stalemate that finished 0-0 at Old Trafford. For supporters of Juve it has been too long, with the shootout victory over Ajax in 1996 at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome a distant memory. They have won the European Cup twice and would dearly love a third. Standing in their way of a semi-final appearance is Monaco, the surprise team to make it through after their remarkable win over Arsenal in the previous round. At

Summary: Juventus face Monaco in UEFA Champions League quarters on Tuesday . Carlos Tevez has already scored six goals in the competition this season . Juventus fans worship Tevez and expect him to fire them to victory . The Italian side are missing Paul Pogba, but that has enabled other midfield players to come to the fore and impress . Juventus have not won the Champions League since 1996, later suffering heartache in a penalty shootout defeat by AC Milan in 2003 . Monaco boss Leonardo Jardim: Juventus are a better team than Arsenal!


This is the incredible moment a car being driven by an ISIS suicide bomber detonates mid-air seconds after it is blasted skywards by an explosion on the ground. Video shows the jihadi attempting to launch an attack on Kurdish Peshmerga forces, reportedly near Kirkuk in northern Iraq. But as the car approaches, it hits what appears to be a roadside bomb, catapulting the vehicle at least 100ft into the air. Just as it begins to fall back down to earth, the car detonates like a firework, either due to the explosives on board or the fuel tank igniting. What's left of the car is then seen dropping back down into the massive cloud of smoke that has billowed up from the ground. Blown sky high: Footage shows a suicide bomber's car being catapulted into the air after apparently hitting a road-side bomb while trying to launch an attack on Kurdish Peshmerga forces near Kirkuk in northern Iraq . Explodes like a firework: The car erupts in a ball of flames either due to the explosives or fuel tank igniting . The footage is the latest in a string of videos released by Kurdish forces which show ISIS launching bungled attacks in Iraq. Compilation clips released on YouTube also show militants being killed or injured by back-firing mortars, malfunctioning machine guns and misfiring rockets. It comes as Iraq's prime minister said his country needs greater support from the international coalition so it can 'finish' the Islamic State. Haider al-Abadi said the 'marked increase' in airstrikes, weapons deliveries and training has helped roll back the extremists, but that more is required to eliminate the group once and for all. 'We want to see more,' al-Abadi told journalists yesterday as he boarded a flight to Washington where he will meet with Barack Obama as part of his first official visit to the U.S. as prime minister. 'We can finish Daesh... and we can stop their advance in other countries,' he added, using the group's Arabic acronym. Destroyed: What's left of the car drops back down into the smoke that has billowed up from the ground . 'We are the only country with armed forces on the ground fighting Daesh. We need all the support of the world.' The U.S. and its coalition allies have carried out nearly 2,000 strikes in Iraq since its campaign began in August - as well as nearly 1,400 in neighboring Syria. American officials say the campaign has been somewhat successful, though it is likely to stretch on for years. In November, Obama authorised the deployment of up to 1,500 more American troops to bolster Iraqi forces, which could more than double the total number of U.S. forces to 3,100. The Pentagon has made a spending request to Congress of $1.6 billion, focusing on training and arming Iraqi and Kurdish forces. This wider angle shot shows the scale of the explosion, reportedly near Kirkuk in northern Iraq on April 12 .

Liam Phillips knows he must expand his repertoire to aid his bid for Olympic glory. The 26-year-old from Burnham-on-Sea won the 2013 BMX world title and was the World Cup series champion in 2014. Phillips, who races in the Manchester World Cup event this weekend, plans to use 2015 to experiment with tactics in a bid to arrive at the start gate in Rio full of confidence. Liam Phillips in action during the 2012 Olympics, and the 26-year-old is hoping for glory in Rio . 'There are certain areas I need to improve to get on the gate in Rio and know that I've done everything I can to be as good, if not better, than my competitors in every single area,' Phillips said. 'The sport is continuing to improve and I need to continue to improve. 'There's challenges this season that I would love to accomplish, which don't necessarily mean going to a race and winning. 'Last year in Argentina I was in second and almost passed the reigning Olympic champion (Latvia's Maris Strombergs) for the win. 'That's something I feel I'd like a little bit more exposure to - not being out in front and having to try to pass some of the best guys to come back and win. That would add to my box of tricks come the Olympics.' Phillips would dearly love to reclaim the world title he won in Auckland two years ago at this year's World Championships in Belgium in July. 2013 World Champion Phillips hopes to use this year to hone his tactics ahead of the 2016 Olympics . The Somerset ace was the taken out by an ill-thought manoeuvre by France's Damien Godet in Rotterdam last year, ending his stint in the rainbow jersey. Phillips knows his performances in recent seasons mean he is a key rival others will do anything to beat. 'I do have a target on me, because I have performed at a high level over the last few years and I have been world champion,' he added. 'Last year's World Championships was so frustrating because I sacrificed doing a few races before then because I wanted to chuck everything at retaining that title. 'I was absolutely flying and I know that given the opportunity to continue racing I would certainly have been more than capable of retaining that, but that's BMX. 'It's just the nature of it. I don't like to dwell on that. I want to push forward now.' Phillips won the Manchester World Cup event in 2014 and knows he will be expected to perform once again on his home track in Saturday's time-trials and Sunday's Super Cross, where eight riders race at the same time. Phillips failed to defend his title last year, but is determined to take it back this July in Belgium . He added: 'I look back at the World Cup last year and I've never experienced pressure like that. Being reigning world champion, everybody expects you to win. 'There's 150 guys in the race, but everybody is looking at this as my

Summary: Liam Phillips was World Cup series champion in 2014 . But Phillips wants to use the 2015 series to develop his tactics for Rio . BMX rider also looking to reclaim his World Championship title this year .


A Sydney anti-ageing doctor has been found guilty of medical misconduct after it was revealed she had been inappropriately prescribing drugs such as steroids and hormones to her patients. Dr Julie Epstein could also face being struck off after an investigation revealed she had been giving substances such as anabolic steroids to some 40 patients, some of whom had trouble with similar drugs in the past. The doctor, who opened one of NSW's first anti-ageing clinics, has been prosecuted by the Health Care Complaints Commission (HCCC) for her conduct between August 2007 and August 2009, Fairfax Media reports. Sydney anti-ageing doctor Julie Epstein (not pictured) has been found guilty of medical misconduct . On Monday the NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal found that Dr Epstein had been prescribing human growth hormone and other similar subtances 'without exercising responsible medical judgement'. The tribunal also revealed that some patients receiving these medications, such as bodybuilders and bouncers, had a history of abusing such substances. Other patients that visited Dr Epstein, who currently works at Atarmon on Sydney's north shore, were a woman with a history of mental illness and eating disorders, someone who was HIV positive, and another with warning signs of prostate cancer. The fact that the anti-ageing doctor failed to measure patients body weight or body mass index before prescribing dosages, and simply took patients' word on symptoms were also aired at the tribunal. The doctor is well known practitioner and has previously appeared in the media commenting on anti-ageing practices and similar areas. A tribunal found she was irresponsible diagnosing medications such as steroids and keeping inaccurate patient records . Dr Epstein also neglected to keep accurate or comprehensive records, and failed in communication with referring doctors. The five medications she prescribed were, according to Fairfax Media's report, anastrozole (Arimidex), human chorionic gonadotrophin, human growth hormone, nandrolone deconoate and testosterone. While the doctor prescribed drugs 'off-record', which means for a use other than their intended purpose, this in itself is not illegal. But the tribunal found that in conjuction with her other questionable practices, it was 'difficult to find the practitioner's off-label prescribing as conforming to acceptable medical practice'. Dr Epstein's barrister, Philip Greenwood SC asked the tribunal not to align his client's anti-ageing practice with that of conventional medicine. Mr Greenwood cited numerous medical studies which supported her actions, which were also supported by innovation in the industry. Dr Epstein has been a medical practitioner for 40 years and currently works in Artarmon on Sydney's north-short (pictured) However lawyers for the HCCC argued the case was not about the validity Dr Epstein's anti-ageing practices but her responsibility as a practitioner. The anti-ageing doctor had previously warned in 2007 about the prescription of steroids, and came to the attention of authorities again when a patient had the drugs seized when travelling overseas. Following these instances, restrictions were placed on her medical licence in 2009. During a hearing last year Dr Epstein said she had changed her procedures to include physical checks of her patients. She spoke about her four decade long

Summary: Dr Julie Epstein has been found guilty of medical misconduct . The Sydney anti-ageing doctor was inappropriately prescribing drugs . Steroids and human growth hormone were being given to patients . NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal said she was irresponsible .

A huge Marine Corps helicopter made an emergency landing on a Southern California beach on Wednesday, bringing no damages or injuries but leaving an unforgettable spectacle for surrounding swimmers and sunbathers. The CH-53E Super Stallion landed on the shore of this northern San Diego County town shortly after 11:30am after a low oil-pressure indicator light went on in the cockpit, Marine Corps Air Station Miramar said in a statement. The 100-foot copter is twice the size of the humpback whales that sometimes wash up on surrounding shores. It crouched on the sand below a bluff and only a few yards from the surf line, dwarfing surfboard-topped lifeguard vehicles parked nearby. Scroll down for video .

Kalt, a 10-year-old who came to the beach with his mother and some friends to check out the helicopter, was amazed by its size. He had his mother take a cellphone photo of him with his two friends in front of the massive aircraft and then bounced around in the sand staring as Marine mechanics wearing flight suits and helmets scrambled atop the chopper. 'It's huge! I like military and Navy, so I might fly one of those someday,' he said.
