Parents of a U.S. Army Sergeant were left stunned with excitement after their son, who had just returned from being stationed in Afghanistan, decided to surprise them on ice before a hockey game. Sergeant Dan Urman's father Eitan Urman was so happy that as he embraced his son and lifted him off the ground, he slipped on the ice, causing both to tumble over while still hugging. As part of the planned surprise, Eitan and his wife Ronit, of Scottsdale, Arizona, had been invited to drop the puck before the Arizona Coyotes game against the Anaheim Ducks on Saturday.

Nestled in eastern Long Island is a sleepy little town called Yaphank where the streets have cozy names like Oak and Park, names that hide a dark past: they once bore signs like Hitler and Goebbels Streets. Yaphank, in the 1930s, appeared as a haven for Americans--most of them of German heritage--who sympathized with the causes of the Third Reich. In fact, it was largely founded as a Nazi camp, one of several scattered across the U.S., where the children in the German American Bund (AKA American Nazis) could fish, swim, hunt and learn about things like eugenics. Scroll down for video . Nazi camp: Yaphank, Long Island was once home to a camp for Nazis where like-minded individuals could drink beer and learn about eugenics . Camp Siegfried was founded by the American Nazi group, the German American Bund. The group set up pro-Nazi camps where they could put on military demonstrations, teach their children about fascism and enjoy the outdoors . Today, Yaphank is still a town on Long Island. Missing now, though, are the homes with swastikas built into the brick work and hedges, pro-Hitler parades and, of course, the Nazi camp. That camp was founded in 1935 by Friends of New Germany, writes Dangerousminds.net. That group went on to become the German American Bund. The Bund in Yaphank, as it did in similar communities in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and New Jersey, organized military demonstrations where they waved both the American and Nazi flags. In an article published in the Long Island History Journal, Stony Brook University historian Ryan Shaffer describes a typical day at Camp Siegfried thusly: . 'Locals from Yaphank, Jamesport, Aquebogue, and Riverhead visited the camp to drink beer, join in the festive atmosphere walking or driving down Hitler Street to salute American and Nazi flags.' Shaffer writes that 'support for Nazi Germany in the United States was a unique blend of German and American ideology rather than just a foreign import.' However, members had to be Aryan and were united in their belief that those with German blood would lead America into a 'new era.' Adolf Hitler Street: Yaphank once had streets named Adolf Hitler, Goebbels and Goering as well as Berliner and Hamberger. Most of the names have since been changed, but the county still retains the original maps . Swastika hedge: Gone now, too, are the swastikas that once adorned the lawns and buildings of the camp and town . 'Locals from Yaphank, Jamesport, Aquebogue, and Riverhead visited the camp to drink beer, join in the festive atmosphere walking or driving down Hitler Street to salute American and Nazi flags,' notes Stony Brook University historian Ryan Shaffer . In the years leading to America joining the Allies, the FBI and New York police started to keep an eye on the Bund in Yaphank. Photos that only recently became available were mainly taken by New York police and can be viewed here. The FBI once noted that Yaphank contained 150 to 300 children who 'used to wear a uniform like that of the Hitler Youth

Summary: Yaphank in Long Island was founded in part by the German American Bund, a pro Nazi group that flourished in the 1930s . They established Camp Siegfried in 1935 as a place for like-minded Aryans to drink beer, hold military demonstrations and learn about eugenics . Yaphank remains a town in Long Island, but gone are the roads once called Adolf Hitler Street, Goebbels and Goering .

From deep craters to basaltic plains, the varied surface of the moon has been revealed in stunning detail by the US Geological Survey. The two sets of maps, compiled by cartographer Trent Hare, include image mosaics and topographical views of the lunar landscape taken over a period of four years. The grey and white areas reveal higher peaks, while darker blues show deep craters. To the left of these craters, is Oceanus Procellarum, which is Latin for 'Ocean of Storms'. The two sets of maps include image mosaics (right) and topographical views (right) of the lunar landscape. Darker blue show deep craters, while the grey and white areas reveal areas of elevation . Early theories claimed this mysterious region, roughly 1,600 miles (2,600km) across, was created by an asteroid impact. Last year, however, Nasa scientists proposed that the Ocean of Storms was in fact the result of the formation of ancient rift valleys. The feature is located on the surface of the moon's near side which is characterised by low elevations and numerous ancient volcanic plains. Scientists believe the rifts are buried beneath dark volcanic plains in this area, and so far, they have only been detected in the gravity data provided by the Grail probes. The map also shows Mare Orientale, an impact crater that was partially flooded by basalts. Shaped like a target ring bull's-eye, the Mare Orientale is one of the most striking large scale lunar features. Found on the moon's extreme western edge, it is difficult to see from an earthbound perspective . Pictured on the left is the moon's south pole, and on the right, the north pole. To create the maps, more than 6.5 billion measurements were collected between 2009 and 2013 by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Wide Angle Camera (Wac) and the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter . Nasa's ultimate goal at the moment is to land humans on Mars by the 2030s. Exactly how to get there is up for debate, with the agency favouring a mission to an asteroid in the next decade, followed by a giant leap to the red planet the decade after. But one expert has claimed that Nasa is actually planning to go back to the moon first, as a waypoint to reaching its final goal. Writing for My San Antonio, science reporter Eric Berger explained how President Obama had, in 2010, outlined Nasa's goals for the forthcoming decades. 'I just have to say pretty bluntly here, we've been there before,' the President said in a speech at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida at the time. The goal instead was to visit an asteroid in the 2020s, and then send a crew to Mars in the 2030s - with no mission to another destination in between. Recently, Nasa revealed how they plan to do the asteroid mission - by picking up a boulder from a larger asteroid, placing it in lunar orbit, and having astronauts go and visit. But Mr Berger says that Nasa has been 'quietly' considering going back to the moon before going to Mars. He said that

Summary: The maps, compiled by US Geological Survey, include image mosaics and topographical views of the moon . They show features such as 'Ocean of Storms' and Mare Orientale captured by Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter . To create the maps, researchers used more than 6.5 billion measurements collected between 2009 and 2013 .


It is one of the most prestigious honors bestowed upon journalists and people in the arts. And today, the Pulitzer prize for journalism went to The Post and Courier newspaper of Charleston, South Carolina - which has a tiny staff of just 80 and a daily circulation of 85,000. The paper's powerful photo series entitled 'Till Death Do Us Part,' on domestic violence scooped the top award for its exploration into why South Carolina is among the deadliest states for women. Scroll down for video . Winner: This iconic photo by New York Times photographer Daniel Berehulak, was part of a winning series, and shows James Dorbor, 8, suspected of being infected with Ebola, being carried by medical staff to an Ebola treatment center in Monrovia, Liberia . Death: This photograph released by the Pulitzer Board on 20 April 2015 shows one of the winning photographs by Daniel Berehulak who won the 2015 Pulitzer Prize for Feature Photography . The newspaper was awarded the gold medal for public service, the first time in five years that the prize has gone to such a small newspaper. Last year, the award went to The Washington Post and The Guardian for their coverage of National Security Agency documents leaked by the former government contractor Edward J. Snowden. Executive editor Mitch Pugh said reporters saw annual statistics which ranked South Carolina as the state where the most women are killed by men, according to The New York Times. 'The discussion around the table in the newsroom was why is that. We've written about it every year, but we've never done the deep dive.' The small newspaper's photographs were just one of many by news organizations which looked at the key news events which gripped the nation and international community over the past year. Some of the most vivid portraits came from the New York Times which ran a series of heartbreaking images of the Ebola outbreak as it gripped countries in West Africa. The newspaper won three Pulitzer prizes for international reporting and feature photography for its coverage of the West Africa Ebola outbreak. The Pulitzer committee at Columbia University in New York said The New York Times staff shared the prize for international reporting for its coverage of the deadly Ebola epidemic in west Africa. New York Times reporter Eric Lipton took the prize for investigative reporting on the influence of lobbyists. And freelance photographer for the paper, Daniel Berehulak, won the feature photography award for his Ebola coverage. Heartbreaking: This September 18, 2014, photo by New York Times photographer Daniel Berehulak, part of a winning series, shows Eric Gweah, 25, weeping as a burial team removes the body of his 62-year-old father, who died at home, arms thrashing and blood spewing from his mouth, in front of his sons after being turned away at the treatment centers in Monrovia, Liberia .

Nigel Farage is touring the country hoping to show how Britain can cope without Europe. But the Ukip leader's campaign came to an embarrassing halt when on a tour of a hinge factory he met an Hungarian worker who spoke no English. After an awkward exchange with Ivan Loncsarevity at the plant in Essex, Mr Farage was quick to insist he did not want to send EU migrants home to stop them taking the jobs of young Britons. Scroll down for video . Ukip leader Nigel Farage had an awkward exchange with Hungarian Ivan Loncsarevity at a hinge factory in Essex . Mr Farage's immigration policy has been shrouded in confusion for weeks, as the party flip-flops between setting a target for net migration and insisting targets do not work. He wants an Australian-style system to set targets for the level of skills needed for someone to come to Britain in search of work. At present no limits can be put on workers from elsewhere in the European Union under freedom of information rules. Mr Farage today visited hinge manufacturer NICO in Clacton, Essex to promote his party's election policies. He was campaigning with Ukip MP Douglas Carswell (left) who hopes to hold the seat he won after defecting from the Tories last year . After meeting several workers, he struggled to make small talk when he met 62-year-old Hungarian Mr Loncsarevity. He has lived in Colchester for five years after travelling to the UK for work, but could not answer any of Mr Farage's questions as he does not speak any English. His colleagues described him as 'relatively low-skilled'. Mr Farage has previously railed against the number of people from elsewhere in Europe working in the UK. Last year he said: 'When you boil it down to Romania, Bulgaria, Poland, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia, over a million of their workers are in Britain and only 42,000 British citizens are working in those countries.' Mr Farage was campaigning with Ukip MP Douglas Carswell (left) who hopes to hold the seat he won after defecting from the Tories last year . But today he insisted he would not want to send Mr Loncsarevity back to Hungary. 'Ukip has never said anyone should leave the country, so the question is entirely baseless,' he told reporters. 'One of the big problems that we've got in engineering is a real shortage of young people studying engineering to go into trades such as this, which is regrettable. 'We've got rid of technical colleges and encouraged more and more young people to go to university and study degrees which are not directly linked to industry such as this. 'If there's no British person trained to do that job, then that says more about us than them.' NICO's manufacturing manager, Steve Dalton, said that the firm needed to look to Eastern Europe to fill a skills gap and on occasion had flown potential employees from Poland. Mr Dalton said he was not a Ukip supporter but did not oppose the party's proposal of an Australian-style points system designed

Summary: Ukip leader lost for words as he met Ivan Loncsarevity at the plant in Essex . Struggled for small talk because Mr Loncsarevity speaks little English . Farage insisted he did not want to deport migrants if Britain left the EU .


George and Amal submitted plans to their council for a 12-seater home cinema . They're newlyweds settling down in their dream home, and this weekend it was reported that George and Amal Clooney have submitted plans to improve their £10million Berkshire mansion - which include the addition of a 12-seater cinema. While this may seem extravagant, according to industry experts, a cinema room is now an 'expected' luxury in properties worth over £10million. Robert Osborn, co-founding director of top luxury property developer Consero London explained: 'Home cinemas are a growing requirement, particularly for brand new or newly refurbished properties.' 'At the high level, media rooms are a valuable use of space and are expected, particularly in homes priced above £10 million. We also often include pantries or bars as an addition to support the media room.' As extravagant as it may seem, home cinemas are often a clever investment as they make use of low value space in the dark basement. Property insider, Ben Hubbard, an asset manager at OracleAMG explains: 'Cinemas are often situated in the basement of a dwelling because there is no need for natural light.' Ben estimates that cinemas can cost anything from a few thousand to £100,000 to kit out and says: 'Home cinemas can vary from a converted surplus bedroom within an average sized dwelling to a 30-seater theatre in the basement of a much larger home. 'There's a vast difference in the set-up costs depending on how far you want to go,' he said. Ben believes that the home cinema trend is growing, and having a dedicated cinema room is becoming 'important' in high-end properties. But does it ever reap financial rewards when it comes to selling? 'If one was to spend fortunes investing in a cinema equipment for an average sized family home - the chances are it will not add any value to the house as a majority of the purchasers will have different uses for that room,' Ben said. Scroll down for video . The couple's £10m Grade-II listed Berkshire abode, which will undergo renovations including the addition of a home cinema and swimming pool . This Surrey screening room has velvet seats and inset lighting - perfect inspiration for the Clooney in-house cinema complex . 'At the other end of the scale the more space the dwelling has the more likely you’re going to expect to see a cinema room and therefore the more value it will add. Generally though it adds saleability factor rather than actual value. 'Set-ups can range from large plasma TVs with off-the-shelf surround sound systems in a darkened rooms to tiered theatres with cinema quality digital projectors. 'High-end cinemas will have been constructed to consider the rest of the house and can be soundproofed to prevent noise problems occurring elsewhere, which also increases the cost.' All apartments in the super-prime development in One Hyde Park have access to this amazing home cinema. A three-bedroom apartment is currently on the letting market with Tunstall Property at...£17,000 per week . Knowing how hard renovations can be we thought

Summary: George and Amal submitted plans for a 12-seater cinema, as part of upgrades to their Berkshire mansion . Property expert says media rooms 'expected' in homes over £10million and can cost anything up to £100,000 . Clooneys will need to choose lighting, interior, seating and an AV system for their cosy space .

The monarch, who was resplendent in a fuchsia suit and a matching hat, appeared unusually nervous and was spotted crossing her fingers in the Royal Box. Unfortunately for Her Majesty, her horse was narrowly pipped to the post - prompting a brief look of horror and a rueful smile from her owner. Oh no! The Queen allows herself a look of horror as Ring of Truth is narrowly pipped to the post . One is not amused: The Queen briefly looks glum before smiling at her second place finish . Better than nothing: The Queen's second place appeared to go down well and she got a third place later on . The Queen, who has long been an avid racing fan, had a second runner later in the afternoon but was once again left to rue missed chances after her horse Capel Path came in third. Newbury Racecourse is currently hosting the Dubai Duty Free Spring Trials, one of the most prestigious dates on the flat racing calendar. The event, which coincides with the racecourse's annual real ale festival, also saw runners owned by fellow royal Sheikh Mohammed of Dubai take to the track. Unfortunately for the Emirati, the horses bred by his Godolphin Stud also failed to triumph with one, Strong Chemistry, taking second place in the Dubai Duty Free Full Of Surprises Handicap. Despite failing to register a win, the 88-year-old monarch was on cheerful form and chatted happily to jockey Richard Hughes in the parade ring ahead of the Maiden Stakes.

Earlier this month the tracksuit tycoon Mike Ashley agreed to buy a plot of land in Chelsea from the retailer John Lewis for somewhere in the region of £200million. The Clearings has been primed for redevelopment, with planning permission for 62 luxury flats, seven townhouses and an agreement to relocate Marlborough Primary School as part of the project. In five years, when the operation to build the properties is concluded and they have been sold to high-end buyers, Ashley will add something in the region of another £1bn to his net worth. There have been empty seats at St James' Park recently as fans let their feelings about Mike Ashley be known . The weekend defeat by Swansea was a seventh straight Premier League loss for the Magpies . Toon keeper Tim Krul had to pick the ball out of his net three times against Swansea . Ashley looks after the money, obsessing over the finances at his business empire, which includes SportsDirect, Tesco and his football club in the north east. Last year his group made more than £500m. In return, he expects his employees, across the board, to deliver. The biggest motivation in Ashley’s life is to make money, something reflected in Newcastle United’s latest accounts, which are showing another decent profit and £34m in the bank. The money men at Newcastle are already aware that the team could play in an empty stadium when the new television deals crystallise at the start of the 2016-17 season and still turn a profit based on current income and expenditure. It feels like it could come to that as Newcastle’s disaffected supporters wonder where to take their grievances to next. Ashley, the club’s owner, does not appear to be listening. He is not a football man, certainly not in the same way as the increasing number of disillusioned supporters at St James’ Park. After seven straight defeats in the Barclays Premier League under their interim coach John Carver, they have every right to fear for the future. All is not well. It does not help that Ashley has taken a neanderthal approach to negative criticism, frequently banning journalists from St James’ because they have gone into bat on behalf of the team’s disaffected supporters. For such a successful businessman, Ashley’s sensitivity to criticism is undoubtedly one of his biggest weaknesses. Ashley (right) has never been Mr Popular at St James' Park but the protests have been ramped up recently . A fan appeared to have a go at interim manager John Carver during the latest loss at St James' Park . The view from the bench hasn't been pretty for Carver and the Newcastle staff during the last few weeks . He should address it because his ability to make money should be one of his most powerful weapons at Newcastle. In January, after a deal had been concluded to take Alan Pardew to Crystal Palace, the former Newcastle manager gave a momentary insight into the financial strategy at St James’ Park. ‘Newcastle is a big club, it’s difficult because it is

Summary: Newcastle United have lost seven Premier League games in a row . Fans protested against Mike Ashley during the latest loss against Swansea . Ashley does not appear to be listening - he is not a football man . His biggest weapon is ability to make money - club has £34m in the bank .


England wing Christian Wade has been slammed by Wasps team-mate Andy Goode after he failed to show up to a charity function on Tuesday night. Goode accused the 23-year-old of having ‘bad values’ for dropping out of a fundraising event for the Matt Hampson Foundation — set up by and named after the paralysed former Leicester Tigers prop — because he was ‘too tired’. Danny Cipriani, Shaun Edwards and Mark Cueto were among the stars at the ‘Beers with the Boys’ night in Birmingham, where guests were also treated to a Haka performance by Leicester team-mates Manu Tuilagi and Logovi’i Mulipola. The Matt Hampson foundation's event was on Wednesday, named after the former England U21 prop (left) Andy Goode tweeted: 'Bad values from @ChristianWade3 agreeing to come to a charity event for @Hambofoundation then saying he's too tired, poor culture & no trust' A host of rugby stars attended the event for former England U21 prop Hampson but Christian Wade did not . Wade, 23, did not attend and clearly infuriated veteran Goode, who will join London Irish in the summer . Sportsmail understands that Wade pulled out because of an injury rehabilitation session the following morning but, despite the event’s success, Goode did not hold back with his public criticism. The 35-year-old No 10, capped 17 times by England, tweeted: ‘Bad values from @ChristianWade3 agreeing to come to a charity event for @Hambofoundation then saying he’s too tired, poor culture & no trust.’ Wade did not reply to the message that split opinion among supporters and Wasps refused to comment. Wade, who missed out on the RBS 6 Nations, is recovering from a hamstring injury and was sidelined for the recent Champions Cup quarter-final defeat by Toulon. Wasps’ European exit highlighted the financial gulf between English and French clubs, with Ireland legend Brian O’Driscoll claiming that Roman Abramovich-style investment is needed to boost domestic sides. With French outfits such as Toulon becoming a honeypot for billionaire financiers, the gulf is bigger than ever. Hampson tweeted as his charity aims to inspire and support young people seriously injured through sport . Former England fly half Goode slammed his Wasps team-mate Wade (pictured) on Twitter afterwards . However, with Saracens taking on Clermont Auvergne in Saint-Etienne tomorrow, the BT Sport pundit stressed the importance of the salary cap for smaller clubs. ‘When you talk about French dominance, the teams are coming from France but the players aren’t,’ said O’Driscoll. ‘It’s a money issue — players are not just moving to France for a tan. The English utopia is that each club gets a Roman Abramovich, who makes it their little pet. ‘But certain English clubs are being squeezed and the cap is there to save them.’ Watch Clermont Auvergne v Saracens live on BT Sport 1 tomorrow from 2.30pm.

Researchers found women judged to have pretty faces also have voices regarded by men as appealing (file picture) Men can judge how attractive a woman is by hearing her talk, according to a study. Researchers found women judged to have pretty faces also have voices regarded by men as appealing. ‘People can make quite reliable guesses about women’s facial attractiveness on the basis of their voices,’ said study co-author Markus Koppensteiner, an anthropologist from the University of Vienna. He added: ‘Attractive voices may create an idea about what a woman will look like.’ Researchers photographed the faces and recorded the voices of 42 women with an average age of 24. They then asked a group of men – with an average age of mid 20s – to rate the women’s voices on attractiveness and another group of similar age to judge the attractiveness of their faces. Those rated highly for looks often scored well for sound too, with the study finding a ‘significant relationship between males’ ratings of female faces and voices. Findings suggest that women with an attractive face also tend to have an attractive voice’. The scientists also mapped the shape, size and layout of the women’s faces to work out which facial traits were considered to be more attractive both physically and vocally. They found women deemed the most attractive tended to have ‘lifted jawbones, less robust jaws and fuller lips’. The research could shed light on the visual and vocal appeal of radio broadcasters such as Fearne Cotton. Mr Koppensteiner added: ‘It could explain why women who have made it (on radio) also have attractive faces.’ Previous research has indicated women also pay close attention to men’s voices, preferring a deeper pitch because they associate it with a larger body size. Those rated highly for looks often scored well for sound too, with the study finding a ‘significant relationship between males’ ratings of female faces and voices (file picture)

Summary: Researchers found those with pretty faces also have appealing voices . University of Vienna photographed and recorded voices of 42 women . Two separate groups of men rated their attractiveness for the study . Those who rated highly for looks often scored well for sound .


There will be calls for England to get rid of Alastair Cook and Jonathan Trott on the back of their failures here but I think they should both play all three Tests against West Indies before any sort of decision is made. We are talking about two batsmen with phenomenal Test records who have done it against Australia in the past and, with good players like that, you do not jettison them easily. Cook, for instance, will end up with one of the greatest of all England records and you have to give people of that calibre every possible chance to show they are worth a place. Jonathan Trott (left) and Alastair Cook head out to open England's second innings against West Indies . Trott walks past Cook after he was dismissed for just four runs by Jerome Taylor on day three . I said after the first day of this Test that England’s top order was a bit one-paced which could be an issue but that does not mean I think they should be dropped unless there is conclusive evidence they are in decline. England’s new opening pair have very different issues. Trott will have played all sorts of mind games with himself ahead of this game, telling himself to enjoy it and trying to forget how people perceive him after leaving Australia. He will have desperately tried not to build this Test up too much but, once out in the middle, he will have known how important it is. You could see how frenetic he was and how much he was moving at the crease. When you are nervous and desperate to do well your movements can become exaggerated as emotion takes hold. He has got to tell himself to stay still at the crease. The Trott I remember was almost Jacques Kallis-like in how still he was. If it were not for his scratching around you wouldn’t notice him. The Trott I remember would get to 70 before you knew it and we can’t judge his comeback on a Test where he has received good deliveries in both innings. Trott was making his first Test appearance for England in 18 months against the West Indies . He has to tell himself to calm down, stay still and chill a bit at the crease and it will be hard because the Duke ball is swinging and he is not accustomed to being an opener. He has been at three his whole career. If he does not make runs in the next two Tests and England are convinced he won’t be able to become the player he was then that is the time to have a look at someone else. Not now. The captain, in contrast, has a technical issue. Cook is mentally one of the strongest cricketers England have ever produced, an incredible fighter and an incredible bloke who has such a burning desire to prove people wrong. Trott leaves the field in Antigua following his poor showing on day three of the first Test . Yes, form is a

Summary: Alastair Cook and Jonathan Trott have both struggled with the bat . Trott looked nervous while his movement was erratic . Cook hasn't scored an international century in two years .


Lucas Matthysse won a majority decision against Ruslan Provodnikov in a 12-round super lightweight bout on Saturday night. Matthysse landed the majority of the punches in the first round and opening a cut near Provodnikov's left eye early in the second. Provodnikov (24-3) put Matthysse on the ropes late in the third round and landed two hard right hook-left hook combos in the fourth before Matthysse (37-3) regained control in the fifth. He continued to use his three-inch reach advantage to keep Provodnikov at bay, giving him room to dodge the Russian's powerful left hook. Lucas Matthysse celebrates after his win against Ruslan Provodnikov at the Turning Stone Resort Casino . Provodnikov (right) lands an uppercut to the head of Matthysse despite having a cut opened up early on . Provodnikov (24-3) put Matthysse on the ropes late in the third round and landed two hard right hook-left hook combos in the fourth before Matthysse (37-3) regained control in the fifth. He continued to use his three-inch reach advantage to keep Provodnikov at bay, giving him room to dodge the Russian's powerful left hook. Provodnikov landed several punches in the later rounds but couldn't knock down his Argentine opponent down, although he did stagger Matthysse in the 11th. 'He did, he hurt me,' Matthysse said through a translator. 'But I was able to withstand the onslaught. He's a very tough fighter. He's very strong. He just keeps coming forward.' Don Ackerman scored the fight as a draw 114-114, but Glenn Feldman and John McKaie both scored it 115-113 in favor of Matthysse. 'To me, he was better today,' Provodnikov said through a translator. 'He was the better man in the ring and, you know, it was a close fight but he won and I hope everybody enjoyed it.' The night's undercard was quickly decided when Patrick Teixeira (25-0, 21 KOs) won with a second-round knockout of Patrick Allotey (30-2) in their middleweight bout. Provodnikov admitted that Matthysse was better than him on the day in the majority decision win . Matthysse said he just wanted to rest but talked up a fight with Floyd Mayweather or Manny Pacquiao next . The sell-out crowd then had to wait more than an hour for the main event, watching the TV feed of Terence Crawford beating Thomas Dulorme for the vacant WBO junior welterweight title in Austin, Texas. WBO president Paco Valcarcel tweeted he would like to see Crawford defend his title against Matthysse, but the Argentinian had his sights set higher. 'For right now I just want to rest,' Matthysse said. 'I got my daughter, my family waiting for me back home. I want to rest. I want to go back there and see them so much and let's see what happens with (Manny) Pacquiao and (Floyd) Mayweather.' Matthysse and Provodnikov prepare to hug at the end of their fight on Saturday night in Verona, New York .

There is a passage in Diego Torres’s book, 'The Special One - The Secret World of Jose Mourinho', which goes a long way to understanding the practices of Chelsea’s manager. In the English version of Torres’s biography, the exchanges between Mourinho and Cristiano Ronaldo in the dressing room at Real Madrid start on page 138 and finish five pages later. Here is an abridged version of the alleged events in the team meeting before the second leg of the 2011 Champions League semi-final against Barcelona, when Ronaldo had made it clear he expected Los Blancos to be more adventurous in the Bernabeu. Jose Mourinho makes a point to Oscar and his Brazilian team-mate Willian during a game at Stamford Bridge . Mourinho has been called out by players for being too defensive before, by Cristiano Ronaldo at Real Madrid . Oscar holds his head in his hands after missing a good chance at Stoke, where he was replaced at half time . Oscar hasn't completed a full 90 minutes for Chelsea since mid-January. Here is is full recent record: . Jan 31 Manchester City (substituted, 89) Feb 7 Aston Villa (substituted, 73) Feb 11 Everton (unused) Feb 17 Paris Saint Germain (substitute, 83) Feb 21 Burnley (substituted, 72) Mar 1 Tottenham (substitute, 88) Mar 4 West Ham (substituted, 74) Mar 11 Paris Saint Germain (substituted, 45) Mar 15 Southampton (substituted, 82) Mar 22 Hull (substitute, 61) Apr 4 Stoke (substituted, 45) According to Torres, the Real Madrid coach told his star player: ‘I’m going to say it to your face: you complain that we play defensively. But do you know why we play this way? For you. ‘Because, as you don’t want to defend or cover the wings, I have to have the team sitting deep... when you come on, you do your own thing.’ That meeting, held in the presence of the great Zinedine Zidane, apparently lasted 40 minutes. Real Madrid drew the second leg 1-1 and Barcelona progressed to the final, where they beat Manchester United 3-1 at Wembley. Team meetings are a theme of Mourinho’s management, giving his players the floor during the fallow periods that inevitably occur during the course of a long season. It is a pragmatic approach, one to be admired, unless you happen to be one of the players who challenges Mourinho’s coaching philosophy. You cannot blame Oscar, the current fall-guy, for encouraging Chelsea to play with a sense of adventure at a team meeting that took place during their wobble at the end of January. When you can call upon Oscar, Eden Hazard and Willian, why wouldn’t you? Oscar has been put back in his box in recent weeks, failing to start or finish a full 90 minutes in all competitions for Chelsea since the 1-0 victory over Liverpool in the Capital One Cup semi-final second leg on January 27. The Brazilian midfielder has failed to complete 90 minutes in any of Chelsea's last 11 games . Mourinho demands that the likes of Oscar work hard on their defensive roles to free Eden Hazard's

Usain Bolt walked into a small gym at the base of Rio de Janeiro's Mangueira favela on Thursday, took three shots on the basketball court - at least one from 3-point range - and made all three. That bodes well for next year's Olympics, where the six-time gold-medal sprinter will try to add three more in Rio. He won three in 2008 in Beijing and three more in London in 2012. 'This will be my last Olympics, but I am definitely looking forward to it,' Bolt said, ushered away quickly into black car. 'I'm excited now that it's getting closer. I'm looking forward to being here and competing. Yes definitely.' Usain Bolt took three shots on the basketball court and converted all three on a trip in Brazil . Bolt visited a small gym in Brazil on Thursday and spoke of his plans for the Rio Olympics . Bolt made the time to pose for pictures alongside his many supporters in Brazil . Bolt is in Rio to promote an event over the weekend, and made a 30-minute visit to the Mangueira sports complex. Many couldn't believe it when they were told Bolt - the world's fastest man - was dropping by a slum that's visible from Rio's famous Maracana stadium. Leaving the basketball court, Bolt posed for selfies, took his own video and even ran a 20-metre race on the track with several young girls. A few kids at the complex's small football field climbed a chain link fence to have a look. Bolt seemed to enjoy himself, raised his arms a few times in mock gestures of triumph and took time to look at the selfies of others. 'It was really great,' said Camile Vitoria Santana Melo, a 12-year-old who ran alongside Bolt. 'I wasn't expecting it. I came here today to practice. I was very happy, very excited when I saw him.' Bolt (centre) jogged a 20-metre track with some youngsters who had been training there . Jamaican sprinter Bolt has admitted that the 2016 Olympic games in Rio will be his last . There are more than 1,000 favelas in Rio. Many are lawless tin and cinderblock settlements dug in atop the city's hills, home to Rio's poor and much of its crime. 'This is going to a learning moment for me in the future,' Camile added, dressed in green shorts and a white top. 'Wow, it was great. I would like to speak to him more, chat longer.'

Summary: Usain Bolt is in Brazil as Olympic anticipation begins to rise . The sprinter visited a favela and jogged with children training there . He spoke of his excitement at competing in Rio for next year's games .

In closing arguments last week, defense attorney Judith Clarke contended that Tamerlan was the driving force behind the bombing, with Dzhokhar following along. Tamerlan died during the brothers' chaotic final day of freedom. Three days after the bombing, the pair shot dead a police officer and carjacked a Chinese businessman as they attempted to flee the city. The carjacking victim escaped and alerted police to their plans, setting the stage for a gunfight between the Tsarnaevs and law enforcement that ended when Dzhokhar roared off in the stolen SUV, running over his brother.

Who doesn’t love a hot cross bun at Easter? In Britain we so enjoy the spiced, sweet rolls with a cross on top, that they used to be eaten all year round. That was until Queen Elizabeth I tried to ban them, possibly finding the cross a little too Catholic. The move was greeted with uproar, so she compromised, saying they could only be sold on Good Friday, at Christmas and for burials — and they have been prime Easter fare ever since. Nowadays supermarkets bring out ever more permutations to tempt customers, from miniature sizes to new flavours like toffee fudge chunk and apple and cinnamon. Here is best of the batch this Easter.

Meanwhile, Scotland Yard said tonight that a second man, aged 61, had been arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to murder Mr Arwani. Charge: A man has been charged with the murder of Syrian imam Abdul Hadi Arwani . The imam ran a building company as well as preaching at various mosques before he was shot dead and his body abandoned in a Volkswagen Passat last Tuesday night. Cooper, from Brent in north-west London, was remanded in custody by a judge at Camberwell Magistrates' Court and ordered to appear at the Old Bailey within the next 48 hours.

No mechanical faults have been found on a plane that was forced to make an emergency landing when three passengers passed out and others felt sick. SkyWest Airlines flight 5622 was flying from Chicago to Connecticut when the pilot was alerted to a potential loss of cabin pressure. As an increasing number of passengers began to complain of dizzyness, and three lost consciousness, the pilot plunged the aircraft into a terrifying dive to drop 30,000 feet in just eight minutes - before landing in Buffalo, New York. But despite the calamitous events, an investigation has discovered nothing unusual about the mechanics of the plane. Scroll down for video . Emergency responders came onboard SkyWest Flight 5622 after it made an emergency landing in Buffalo, New York, on Wednesday following a reported loss of cabin pressure . Mary Cunningham, a nurse, who was on board the flight assisted one passenger who passed out, getting her oxygen. She said that the plane did not land because of just one person's medical emergency as a lot of people on board began to feel dizzy and unwell . Passenger Frank Angelo said he immediately feared for the safety of his wife and kids as the plane 'nosedived' 30,000 feet in just eight minutes . 'You could feel something in the air, something just wasn't right,' recalled one passenger before the plane plunged miles in mere minutes. Passenger Larry Johnson, right, said: 'A lot of people with their heads down praying. It just felt like a re-enactment' While federal safety officials had no explanation for what happened on the aircraft on Wednesday, aviation experts said the flight crew did the right thing by quickly descending to an altitude with life-giving oxygen levels. The situation arose about an hour after take-off, when three passengers on the Embraer 175 twin-jet from Chicago to Connecticut lost consciousness and others began feeling dizzy and sick. Emergency nurse, Mary Cunningham, said she helped treat an unconscious passenger when another passed out beside her and others nearby started feeling faint. 'The flight attendant and myself started not feeling very well while we were in the middle of the flight helping out. I had to sit down. I was short-of-breath, light-headed [and] didn't feel great,' said Cunningham to NBC Connecticut. Initially, reports came in that a cabin door had opened during the flight, leading to dramatic loss in cabin pressure. When the plane landed at 11.40am, the FAA issued a statement saying the crew 'reported a pressurization problem and declared an emergency', shortly before landing in Buffalo. However, in a second statement the FAA put out on Wednesday afternoon, there was no mention of a 'pressurization' issue. When contacted by the LA Times to explain this, a spokesperson for the FAA would not say why the change was made. However, an official with knowledge of the incident told the LA Times that crew members did report that a door had come open at 38,000 feet and was causing 'rapid depressurization.' When the plane landed, SkyWest initially claimed that the aircraft landed 'out of an

Summary: Investigation found nothing wrong with the plane despite the events . SkyWest Inc, based in St. George, Utah, said the jet landed safely and three passengers received medical attention before being released . The Embraer 175 twin-jet, traveling from Chicago to Hartford, Connecticut, carrying 75 passengers dropped from 38,000ft to 10,000ft in three minutes . The FAA said initial information indicated the Embraer E170 jet may have had a pressurization problem . Three passengers passed out on board the flight and an additional 15 adults and two children were evaluated upon landing .


A 13-year-old Indian girl faced with an arranged marriage has written a letter to her teacher begging her to stop the wedding (stock image above) A 13-year-old Indian girl faced with an arranged marriage has written a letter to her teacher begging her to stop the wedding. Duli Hembrom wrote to the principal of Milan Mithi Uchha Vidyalaya after failing to convince her parents to call off the wedding, which is due to take place in two days. She wrote: 'I do not want to get married, I took an oath at the time of admission that I will not get married before I turn 18.' She added that she wanted the teacher to stop the marriage 'whichever way possible', the India Times reported. It is thought the 'oath' Duli refers to is the school's promise she had to make when she started, but exactly what it included is not known. Her father Lachhu, who lives in Gudibanda with Duli's mother, said child marriage was a common phenomenon in their society. He told the Hindustan Times that it was difficult to find a suitable match for a grown-up girl. The Child Marriage Restraint Act, passed in India during British rule in 1929, specified that a girl must be 18 and a boy 21 before they can wed. But the country has the second highest number of child marriages, according to a UN report. Nearly 52 per cent of girls are married before reaching 18 years old, Indian records show. Between 2011 and 2020 more than 140 million girls will become child brides globally, analysts estimate. Aarati Benera, a women’s rights activist, described child marriage as 'illegal and a social evil'. The Child Marriage Restraint Act, passed in India during British rule in 1929, specified that a girl must be 18 and a boy 21 before they can wed. Above, women and girls sit waiting to be married in a mass wedding ceremony in India . Despite numerous campaigns from many of the world's largest charities and NGOs, the issue of child brides remains a global concern. In 2013 there were around 57.5 million child brides across the world, 40 per cent of which married in India. This is despite the Child Marriage Restraint Act, passed during British rule in 1929, specifying that a girl must be 18 and a boy 21 before they can wed. Meanwhile, in Africa, 42 per cent of girls were married before turning 18 compared to 29 per cent in Latin America and the Caribbean. The number of child brides is estimated to rise to 140 million by 2020 if current trends continue, 18.5 million of which will be under 15 years old, analysts warn. Statistics show that girls living in poor households are almost twice as likely to marry before 18 than girls in higher income households. And girls younger than 15 are also five times more likely to die in childbirth than women in their 20s. Aarati Benera, a women’s rights activist, described child marriage as 'illegal and a social evil'.

Comments: Veteran broadcaster Peter Alliss has sparked controversy by claiming gender equality laws have backfired and ‘b*****ed up the game’ Veteran broadcaster Peter Alliss has sparked controversy by claiming gender equality laws have backfired and ‘b*****ed up the game’. Alliss, 84, has said that legislation designed to stop golf clubs from discriminating against female members has instead prompted a decline in women’s membership. Some clubs had previously only allowed female members if they played at restricted times in return for a discounted membership fee. But the Equality Act 2010, drafted by the previous Labour government, ruled that this was illegal discrimination, which means that women must now have equal access to the course – and pay the same membership rates as men. Mr Alliss, a former professional who is one of the game’s most decorated players, claimed that tens of thousands of members of the Ladies’ Golf Union have deserted the organisation since the rules came into force. ‘I’m told the Ladies’ Golf Union has lost 150,000 members since equality for women came in,’ Mr Alliss told the Radio Times. ‘Hundreds of women have left golf clubs because they’ve gone from paying half fare to full fare. It’s caused mayhem.’ He added: ‘Equality for women: A few people battled away to get it, they got it, and they have buggered up the game for a lot of people.’ But Sam Burton, finance director at the Ladies’ Golf Union, said there has only been a decline of 30,000 women since the law came into force, taking membership down to 159,000 by last year. Mrs Burton said: ‘It’s not good that ladies golf is declining and we have to look at it, but I don’t think it’s the equalities legislation that is to blame. Golf has been dominated by men and we are always going to be the minority in any club that is mixed. But on the whole golf is becoming much more equal.’ Rant: He added: ‘Equality for women: A few people battled away to get it, they got it, and they have buggered up the game for a lot of people.’ She suggested that possible reasons why golf was not as popular among women included the fact that it was quite an expensive activity and that other sports such as cycling ‘have been marketed more successfully at women’. She added: ‘In 2015 we have to encourage equality and I certainly wouldn’t be a member at a club where I was treated differently just because I was a woman. ‘I think a lot of ladies would feel the same in this day and age.’ However, Tory MP Philip Davies said he agreed with Mr Alliss, adding: ‘This is the consequence of all the legislation. The equality fanatics can’t pick and choose – they either want full equality or they don’t. If they want full equality then they are going to have to pay the same price as everybody else. ‘I don’t suppose [Mr Alliss’s] view is outdated. His view is a factual view to be perfectly honest. He is looking at the

Summary: Peter Alliss says anti-discrimination laws have caused membership fall . Some clubs only allowed women at restricted times but for lower fares . Alliss says law change has made fees equal and many women can't pay . Equality Act applies to clubs with mixed memberships. Male-only golf clubs are still legal .


An exotic bird in Brazil was recorded making incredible sounds that wouldn’t be out of place on a video game. The Curl-crested Jay, which resides at the Criadouro Onca Pintada breeding centre, is native to South America and is known to be a good mimic of other birds and man-made sounds. With the ever-growing presence of human’s in their natural habitats, the bird is one example of a number of species that have learned to incorporate peculiar everyday sounds into their song. Videoed behind a fence, the bird initially makes a sinister noise like a distorted voice before creating an almost digital sound. Following this the bird makes a noise that sounds like running water before a Space Invaders style tune emerges from it. Discussing the video, companion parrot behavioural expert Greg Glendell spoke with MailOnline about the various theories regarding the function of these sounds. The Curl-crested Jay is native to South America and resides at the Criadouro Onca Pintada breeding centre . ‘Several groups of birds have a lifelong ability to learn to reproduce new sounds; notably parrots, starlings and crows,’ said Mr Glendell. The particular Jay belongs to the Crow/Corvidae family. ‘Some birds may use them to impress a mate or their peers within their flock,’ he added. ‘Most birds using mimicry are highly social species, with a complex vocal repertoire, which includes innate calls and learnt calls. The bird is one example of a number of species that have learned to incorporate peculiar everyday sounds into their song . ‘As social species they use their calls as language. There are often regional dialects within bird groups. So the same species shows differences in its calls across its range.’ Mr Glendell also noted that sometimes captive birds confined to cages use their ability to mimic to relieve their boredom and ensure responses from their owners. The original video was uploaded to YouTube account: Swiatoczamigoski by a Polish-based blogger who has spent some time volunteering at the Brazilian breeding centre. Videoed behind a fence, the bird initially makes a sinister noise like a distorted voice before creating an almost digital sound .
