Kenyan special forces took at least seven hours to respond to the brutal massacre at a university where nearly 150 people were killed by Islamist militants, according to reports. Elite troops were called in from Nairobi to Garissa, some 225miles from the capital, to aid in the pre-dawn attack on the university, but soldiers did not arrive until the afternoon, local media claims. The critique comes as one of the four gunmen responsible for the brutal mass-murders has been identified as a lawyer son of a Kenyan government official. Government representatives have defended the long response time, comparing fighting terrorism with being a goalkeeper as 'they only remember the one you missed'. Scroll down for video . Slow response: Kenyan elite troops were called in to aid in the pre-dawn massacre where 148 people were killed, but did not arrive until just before 2pm . Nation in mourning: A woman cries after she has viewed the body of a relative, one of the 148 people killed in Thursday's attack on a university, at Chiromo funeral home, Nairobi . This picture of a classroom strewn with dead bodies has emerged revealing the true horror of the massacre . Kenya's elite Recce Company in Nairobi were called in as soon as the first reports of Thursday's attack emerged, which took place around 5.30am at Garissa University College. However, as troops were flown in from the capital, help did not arrive at the scene until just before 2pm, Kenyan newspaper Nation reports. 'This is negligence on a scale that borders on the criminal,' the Nation wrote in its editorial on Sunday, recalling how survivors said 'the gunmen, who killed scores of students with obvious relish, took their time.' Some journalists based in Nairobi who drove to Garissa after hearing the first reports of the attack arrived before the special forces, who came by air. Foreign Minister Amina Mohamed defended the slow response time to the massacre, where 148 people were killed, using a football analogy. Paraded: The naked bodies of the alleged attackers were driven around Garissa before the pickup truck parked at a primary school . In the primary school playground, hundreds gathered to look at the bodies of the men accused of being the attackers . 'Fighting terrorism is like being a goalkeeper,' she said. 'You have 100 saves, and nobody remembers them. They remember that one that went past you.' Interior ministry spokesman Mwenda Njoka also dismissed the criticism. 'If you look at how we responded it was not bad at all, say, compared to Westgate,' he told the Nation. 'It takes time to assess and make the decisions, escalating it from National Security Advisory Committee to the National Security Council and then to scramble the elite units, get them to the airport and fly them to Garissa which is a two hour flight. There were many moving parts.' Earlier today, the interior ministry revealed the identity of one of the four gunmen responsible for the massacre on Thursday. Abdirahim Mohammed Abdullahi was the son of a government chief in Mandera County,

Target: Groups of men and women were asked whether they would kill a young Hitler (pictured above aged 25) to prevent WWII . It is a classic question of morality - if you could travel back in time and prevent the Second World War by killing a young Hitler, would you? You could hypothetically save millions of lives - but at the cost of personally murdering someone who had yet to do anything wrong. The answer, according to a recent scientific study, has a lot to do with your gender; and women are far more reluctant to cause any harm in the short term in order to get a better result in the long run. Researchers from Germany, Canada and the United States analysed answers to the Hitler question, and others like it, from 6,100 people. They found that significantly more men than women would kill to save lives further down the line, while women were more troubled by the act itself and would often decide to do nothing. Other dilemmas tested included a scenario where a group of people were hiding from soldiers trying to kill them, but were about to be given away by a baby crying. The choice is whether to smother the child and save the group, or keep it alive and be caught. A third imagined a farming family who had fallen on hard times and had no food to eat. Their only way to avoid starvation would be to have their young daughter carry out sex work for money. The study, published in the Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin, grouped the responses into two groups. Those who chose short-term harm to get an overall better result were termed utilitarians. The other group, for whom the ends could not justify the means, were called deontologists. Differences: The study revealed that women are more reluctant than men to do something harmful in the short-term to secure a better result in the long term (file photo) Hard times: Another question imagined that the only way out of poverty and stavation was making a young girl do sex work for money (file photo) The scientists found that men were moderately more likely to fall into the utilitarian camp, while in women there was a very pronounced trend to go the opposite way. Other data also suggested that women found the decisions more agonizing than the men, who had relatively straightforward time coming to their conclusion. Rebecca Friesdorf, one of the researchers, who is based at Wilfrid Laurier University in Ontario, Canada, said that the results seem to show women employ more emotion making their decisions, while men go more on logic alone. As the women had stronger, competing urges in each scenario, they found the dilemmas more difficult. Explaining her study to NPR, she said: 'Women seem to be feeling more equal levels of both emotion and cognition. They seem to be experiencing similar levels of both, so it's more difficult for them to make their choice.'

Summary: Researchers in USA, Canada and Germany analyzed 6,100 responses . Found men were more likely than women to say ends justify the means . Whichever way they decided, women also found the decisions harder . Scientists speculated it is because women's reasoning is more emotional .


A Roma gang accused of selling a newborn to a childless couple for £6,500 and a car has told a French court that the child was 'a gift' Four Roma men and women appeared in a Marseille court today, accused of human trafficking and being involved in several similar 'baby sales'. Six others are facing related charges in what prosecution documents described as 'a two thousands piece puzzle built around four births'. Human trafficking: Carmen and Mike Gorgan, pictured speaking to their lawyer in the courtroom of Marseille's Criminal Court today, are accused of paying a Roma gang £6,500 and a BMW for newborn baby boy Tony . At the centre of the scandal was Ilie Ionita, a 35-year-old Romanian, and co-conspirators Valeriu Rosu, 42, Florian Stan, 33, and Florin Coman 25. All face up to 10 years in prison and fines equivalent to more than £1million. They deny the charges against them, saying the babies were 'a gift'. The only defendant not in court was Fana Moses, the 32-year-old mother of the baby boy called Tony whom the gang sold. In July 2013, Marseille detectives received an anonymous tip that a Romanian woman had just given birth and had given the child to Mike and Carmen Gorgan, aged 27 and 28. The four accused Roma gang members deny the charges against them, saying the babies were 'a gift' Both were accused of 'complicity in human trafficking', but their lawyer, Patrick Gontart, insisted: 'They do not believe they have done anything wrong'. The Roma gang was arrested as they prepared to board a flight from Italy back to Romania. At first all denied that money or good had been exchanged, but it was quickly established that Mr Gorgan had handed over 9000 euros(£6,565) and the BMW to Ionita. Mr Gontart said: 'For a month and a half, Carmen behaved like Tony's mother and was very well treated.' He said the couple had 'fallen into the trap of many European couples. These are good people who are now unhappy because their child has been placed in a home.' Documents including identity cards were falsified to try and make it look like the parents who bought the baby were the biological mother and father. They had been trying for children unsuccessfully for ten years, the court heard. At least three other cases of babies being sold were then tracked down, both on the French Mediterranean island of Corsica and on the mainland. In all, two boys were sold, while other transactions broke down. All of the children are now back with their biological mothers, or else have been taken into care by social services. OICEM, the organisation against modern slavery, is a civil party in the case – one which it says highlights the growing problem of poor immigrants offering children for sale. Referring to baby Tony's case, OICEM director Nagham Hriech said: 'There was canvassing, exchange and even negotiations.'The case, which is expected to last two days at Marseille Correctional Court, continues.

A counterfeit drug gang has been jailed after raking in £10million by selling fake Viagra while pretending to be a fishing tackle business. Judge Charles Wide QC described it as a 'highly organised, large-scale criminal enterprise' which risked the health of members of the public, as he sentenced the gang at the Old Bailey. The UK-wide conspiracy offered cheap erectile dysfunction pills to online and face-to-face customers around the world. This was a 'sophisticated and carefully planned' scam which had bases in north-east Lincolnshire and Sussex, the judge said. A counterfeit drug gang has been jailed after raking in £10million by selling fake Viagra. Neil Gilbert (pictured left) was jailed for six years and Catherine Laverick (right) was sentenced to three years and 10 months . He said the 'the real mischief is the catastrophic damage that could be caused' to the public, noting that genuine drug companies had pointed out that acid, brick dust and road paint had been found in fake Viagra. One group based in southern England was headed by Neil Gilbert, 42, who made up to £60,000 a week selling unlicensed and counterfeit drugs to unsuspecting customers. The northern branch was led by Thailand-based Stephen Laverick, but his ex-wife Catherine Laverick, 47, was in charge of day-to-day operations in the UK. And their family members and friends were recruited to assist with the massive criminal enterprise. The court heard the conspiracy lasted eight years from 2004 and continued even after the gang were arrested in September 2011 following an investigation by the drugs regulatory body, MHRA. They had used a series of 'front' companies claiming to sell jewellery, fishing tackle and cosmetics to accept the electronic payments. Proceeds were then laundered through more than 100 bank accounts both in the UK and abroad. The gang offered fake Viagra pills to unsuspecting customers around the world. File photo . Huge sums of money were transferred between the conspirators, sent offshore or, were withdrawn in cash in the UK or abroad. The money laundered or obtained through fraud by all of the defendants totalled £8,444,896. Prosecutor Gillian Jones said: 'This case is not about wanting to distribute good medicines cheaply, but rather the motivation was greed, with an utter disregard for patient safety. 'The medicines that were seized which were purported to be Viagra and Valium in fact turned out to be counterfeit,' the prosecutor said. 'This was big business. The proceeds of the supply of these medicines via websites which have been traced to various merchant facilities is in excess of £10 million - that is not the real figure. 'Not all bank accounts have been identified. Some are abroad and haven't been traced properly and some medicines were paid for in cash.' An audit kept by Gilbert revealed that the gang received £60,000 a week from the sale of unlicensed medicines during 2011 alone - a turnover of more than £3million. The money was transferred into bank accounts held by members of the conspiracy or their relatives before being withdrawn in cash or used to sustain the business,

Summary: UK-wide conspiracy offered cheap erectile dysfunction pills to customers . Neil Gilbert headed one group, which made up to £60,000 a week in sales . Family and friends were recruited to help with massive criminal enterprise . Eight-year conspiracy continued even after gang was arrested in 2011 .


The RSPCA is considering abandoning its controversial policy of 'pursuing pointless fox hunting prosecutions' after the collapse of the latest case. The animal charity has no more legal actions left under the Hunting Act after its decision last month to drop the case against William Bryer, joint master of the renowned Cattistock Hunt in Dorset. Following criticism for spending £22.5million pursuing animal welfare prosecutions last year, the RSPCA is now reviewing its policy on fox hunting cases. The RSPCA is considering abandoning its controversial policy of 'pursuing pointless fox hunting prosecutions' after the collapse of the latest case (file picture of the Boxing Day hunt in Lacock, Wiltshire) The RSPCA has the power to bring its own prosecutions rather than rely on the police or the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS). However last October, a report commissioned by the charity recommended abandoning the policy and leaving the job to the CPS, which has more expertise. The organisation stressed that its main role is to focus on the rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming of animals, rather than taking people to court. A spokesman said: 'One of the questions we are currently looking into it whether or not we continue to prosecute under the Hunting Act.' Fox hunting was outlawed in 2005 under Tony Blair's government, but groups continue to meet by using trail hunting, usually with a hunt member dragging the scent of a fox across fields and woodlands. Other hunts use an exemption that allows dogs to flush out the animals from woodland which can then be shot. There were more than 400 prosecutions under the controversial Hunting Act between 2009 and 2013. Just 49 people were charged with hunting offences in 2005, but this more than doubled to 110 by 2010. The animal charity has no more legal actions left under the Hunting Act after its decision last month to drop the case against William Bryer, joint master of the renowned Cattistock Hunt (pictured) in Dorset . Fox hunting with dogs was outlawed in 2005 under Tony Blair's government, but groups continue to meet by using trail hunting (file picture) However critics claim many of these people are prosecuted under the Hunting Act for poaching offences, rather than fox hunting, and that hardly any are from official hunts. In 2012, the RSPCA spent £327,000 prosecuting the Heythrop Hunt, in Oxfordshire. David Cameron has ridden with the hunt. Three defendants were accused of interfering with a badger sett while assisting the Cheshire Hunt in February 2012. A year later the RSPCA admitted it did not have enough evidence. Defendants’ costs of up to £10,000 paid by the taxpayer. In April 2013, charity accused two defendants in the Cheshire Forest Hunt of disturbing a badger sett but ten months later offered ‘no evidence’. In November 2013, case against Will Goffe, 33, of the Ledbury Hunt, near Malvern in Worcestershire, was dropped due to insufficient evidence. Last month Mr Bryer's case collapsed after the RSPCA pulled out of a three-year battle to prove he had broken hunting laws. His solicitor, Jamie Foster, claimed that the case

Summary: RSPCA considering dropping policy of prosecuting people for fox hunting . Animal charity dropped its last case against hunt master and has none left . A total of £22.5million was spent on animal welfare cases last year alone . Campaigners say RSPCA should stop 'pursuing pointless prosecutions'


An epic stunt by the Ecuador tourist board saw it fool a group of 40 visitors into thinking they had flown to Costa Rica to enjoy the delights of its famous port town Golfito. But in fact, the group of tourists were exploring the activities on offer in the country's Napo Province, in the Amazon rainforest. The publicity stunt saw the tourists enjoy white water rafting, swimming near waterfalls and hiking, but it seems that Costa Rica was not amused by the ruse. The creative prank was executed by the Ecuadorean airline Tame, Ecuador's Tourism Ministry and Ministry of Transport and Public Works . The unusual video sparked a diplomatic incident, with the Costa Rican government and Ambassador to Ecuador complaining to the authorities and resulting in Ecuador issuing an apology. The creative project was executed by the Ecuadorean airline Tame, Ecuador's Tourism Ministry and Ministry of Transport and Public Works. But the stunt sparked outrage from the Costa Rican Tourism Institute, the presidential palace and the Foreign Ministry. As Ecuador residents arrived, not in Costa Rica but another Ecuador airport, Tena, where they were given fake stamps in their passports as they went through a staged passport control. No attention to detail was spared as huge posters were placed over the welcome billboards at the airport. Adverts depicting Imperial beer and 'Esencial Costa Rica,' Costa Rica's national brand, were displayed in the airport to throw the group off the scent. Even fictitious immigration documents and car licence plates were created to make the group think they were in Golfito, a port town in Costa Rica. On top of all that organisers used mobile phone and GPS blockers to keep passengers from using technology to discover the hoax. The Tame airline staged the prank in a bid to demonstrate that Ecuador should be considered a top tourist destination . A fake passport control was set up, which even gave out fake stamps for passports . The unsuspecting tourists took part in a number of exciting activities, from white water rafting to hiking . The prank was captured by video but following complaints, the tourism organisers in Ecuador took the video down. 'We're unhappy about their use of our country to trick their people into getting to know their own country,' Costa Rican tourism minister Wilhelm von Breymann told The Tico Times. The trip aimed to show citizens that Ecuador can be a great tourist destination, featuring many incredible site like the breathtaking volcanic crater lake, Quilotoa . The prank was captured by video but following complaints, the tourism organisers in Ecuador took the video down . In a note posted on the foreign ministry's website, the government stated:' The Costa Rican government expressed its discomfort at the use of its image in publicity about Ecuadorean tourism. 'The Ambassador Alejandro Solado spoke with the highest Ecuadorian authorities about the display in the publicity video and the South American country will take the post down from the Internet.' The Ecuadorain Ambassador Ricardo Patino then followed up with an apology to Costa Rica and confirmed

Summary: The stunt was pulled by local tourism groups and an Ecuador airline . Fake signs, passport control, posters and adverts were created in the ruse . It sparked outrage from Costa Rican officials prompting a formal apology . The video was taken down, but was reuploaded by La Nación .

Derry Mathews will take on Venezuelan knockout artist Ismael Barroso for the interim WBA world title after Richar Abril pulled out of their April 18 date. Abril has been elevated to ‘champion in recess’ with Darleys Perez declared the full champion of the lightweight division. Abril was initially forced to withdraw from his title defence against Mathews in March after coming down with dengue fever from a mosquito bite and he withdrew again this week as he is still reeling from the after-effects of the virus that has left him unable to train. Liverpool's Derry Mathews (left) will go head-to-head with Ismael Barroso for the interim WBA world title . Derry was set to fight Cuban WBA champion Richar Abril but will instead face Barroso on the April 18 date . Mathews expressed his disappointment at losing out on a title shot with Abril, who was twice forced to withdraw through illness . Southpaw Barroso, a frightening puncher from El Tigre, has recorded 16 knockouts from 17 wins in his 19 fights (two draws), with 11 quick wins coming inside the first three rounds. Although Liverpool ace Mathews is disappointed that he won't be facing the champion Abril for the belt, the main consolation for him is that he will still challenge for a version of the world title. And Mathews believes that his higher level of experience: 48 fights over 15 years; 18 championship title fights; 264 career rounds and 20 knockouts from 37 wins, vastly outweighs Barroso’s and will give him the vital edge over the South American hitman. ‘It’s unfortunate that Abril’s pulled out again, but things in life happen for a reason and I’m delighted to still be fighting for a version of the WBA world title and I’m headlining the Echo Arena in front of my home fans,’ he said. In his absence WBA lightweight champion Abril (right) has been elevated to ‘champion in recess’ ‘I’ve seen some footage of him, he’s strong, with big right hands and left hooks and and can take you clean out, but I’m not going to be in a position to let him do that to me. ‘Barroso’s a very dangerous fighter and a massive, massive, puncher. Just look at his record, he’s banging people out left, right and centre and it makes frightening reading, but when I saw it I said straight away I’ll have this guy because I know that I can beat him. ‘I’ve been in this sport for over ten years; I’ve had more knockouts than he’s had fights; twice as many fights as him, and three times as many championship fights, in terms of experience he’s not on my level and I can use all of my experience to my advantage. ‘Even with the change of opponent at this stage, plus the change from Abril’s orthodox style to Barrosa’s southpaw style, we still have some time to study him and my trainer Danny Vaughn is confident we can come up with the plan to beat him. I’ll beat anyone at the moment with the way I’m

Summary: Derry Mathews will fight Ismael Barroso for the interim WBA world title . Mathews was set to face Richar Abril, who was forced to withdraw through illness . The Liverpudlian will now face Venezuelan southpaw Barroso on April 18 .

Children who watch films featuring alcohol consumption are more likely to binge drink, a new study has revealed. Scientists quizzed more than 5,000 British teenagers about their drinking habits and the films they had watched from a list of 50, including Bridget Jones' Diary and Aviator. Those who had watched the most films which featured characters drinking alcohol were 20 per cent more likely to have tried alcohol and 70 per cent more likely to binge drink. Danger: Young people who watch films where characters drink alcohol (such as The Hangover) are more likely to binge drink . The research also revealed that between 1989 and 2008 almost three quarters of popular UK box office films depicted alcohol use - but only six per cent were classified as adult only. Lead author Andrea Waylen, from Bristol University, said children were not getting an accurate perception of drinking - and called for films to be rated by alcohol content. She said: 'Alcohol is a drug and it has potentially adverse effects, not only for individuals but also for family and friends. 'It's not very often that we see the adverse effects of alcohol portrayed - like vomiting, rotten hangovers. 'In my view, we don't really get an accurate representation of what alcohol is like.' The research is the latest installment from the Children of the 90s study. It involved 5,000 British 15-year-olds who were questioned on a variety of topics in the mid-2000s. They were asked which films they had seen from a list of 50 popular releases the researchers had already watched - and had added up the minutes in each film that showed alcohol use. Role model: Daniel Craig's character James Bond (left) is partial to a vodka martini. The new research revealed that between 1989 and 2008 almost three quarters of popular UK box office films depicted alcohol use - but only six per cent were classified as adult only . The results revealed that children who had watched the most alcohol scenes were almost two-and-a-half times more likely to have a drink more than once per week. They were also twice as likely to have alcohol-related problems than those less exposed. The study concluded that the current rating system was not adequate for parents trying to limit their childrens' exposure to drinking. Dr Waylen added: 'My guess is there needs to be a level of identification with the drinker in the film. 'Kids are more likely to identify with consuming characters in films where alcohol use is made to look cool, get you friends, win the girl or boy. 'Adverse outcomes from alcohol use are a large societal public health problem and rating films according to alcohol content may reduce problem-related alcohol use and associated harm in young people.' The study was published in the journal Pediatrics.

Summary: Scientists quizzed more than 5,000 teenagers about their drinking habits . Also the films they watched, including Bridget Jones' Diary and Aviator . Those who watched most films featuring characters drinking alcohol were 20% more likely to have tried alcohol and 70% more likely to binge drink .

English essential: This laminated document announces the new ISIS nursing school and lists the language entry requirements for would-be nurses . Militants fighting for the Islamic State terror group in Syria have announced that all nurses working in areas under their control must speak English - something the NHS still hasn't introduced. Revealing plans to open a school of nursing in ISIS' de facto capital Raqqa, the extremists also disclosed the tough entry requirements for prospective medical workers. Among them are rules that applicants are no more than 25 years of age, must be willing to work anywhere inside the territory controlled by the extremists, and must speak fluent English. The latter rule is something that even the NHS has yet fully put in place, with nurses who trained in European countries still able to treat patients without any formal language checks thanks to bureaucratic rules barring the Nursing and Midwifery Council testing EU candidates. Details of the first nursing school to be opened in ISIS-held territory were revealed by on Twitter by Raqqa Is Being Slaughtered Silently - an activist group based in the Syrian city that uses a network of brave informers to document the daily atrocities carried out by the Islamic extremists. RIBSS shared a photograph of a laminated document written in Arabic giving details of the new medical school and listing the entry requirements for would-be nurses. It states that all candidates be aged between 18 and 25, pass an entry exam, impress during an interview, graduated from secondary school with science qualifications, be willing to travel to any ISIS-held area, and willing work for ISIS institutions for at least two years after graduating. The document also states the importance of English - saying candidates will not be accepted without knowing how to speak and understand the language. This is in stark contrast with Britain where English language checks for all nurses are still not being enforced, despite legislation being passed last month making them a legal requirement. Jihadis: ISIS has English language rules for all nurses. The NHS does not have the same level of checks . Although the law has changed, the Nursing and Midwifery Council must engage in a lengthy consultation process, draft new legislation and seek council approval before it can test the English language skills of nurses who trained within the EU. Students graduating from ISIS' nursing school will be required to spend a full two years working for institutions run by the terrorist organisation after graduating. However the announcement in Raqqa promised that graduate nurses who achieved top grades and showed the most promise at the school will be considered for places as ISIS' medical school, where they can train for better paid jobs such as doctors and surgeons. ISIS' English language rules have been put in place long before the NHS has been able to bring in similar checks. Militants: Students graduating from ISIS' nursing school will be required to spend a full two years working for institutions run by the terrorist organisation after graduating . ISIS has launched English-language radio

Summary: ISIS has announced that all nurses working for them must speak English . Rule was one of the entry requirements for a new nursing school in Raqqa . NHS has also attempted to introduce English language checks for nurses . But despite the law being approved, a lengthy consultation process means EU-trained nurses are still being employed without English tests .


Kim Richards was arrested early Thursday morning after allegedly attacking a police officer. Law enforcement were called to The Beverly Hills Hotel at approximately 1:30am where the 50-year-old reality star was hanging out at the Polo Lounge.

In jail: Kim Richards was arrested on Thursday morning after becoming belligerent while intoxicated at the Polo Lounge in The Beverly Hills Hotel . Kim - who has struggled with substance abuse in the past - then headed to a bathroom and refused to come out - which was when cops were called. A source told the website: 'She eventually locked herself in a bathroom and was refusing to come out and causing a scene. Cops had to be called at that point.' According to Beverly Hills Police Department spokesman Lt. Lincoln Hoshino, Kim appeared 'belligerent with slurred speech and wreaking of a strong odor of alcohol.'

Nigel Farage suffered a fresh blow today after a new poll showed Ukip trailing badly in a series of key seats. Across 10 constituencies targeted by Mr Farage's party, Ukip has fallen 18 points behind the Tories and seven behind Labour. The revelation came as Mr Farage admitted that he had 'made some mistakes' during the campaign but insisted he was confident he could get it back on track. Scroll down for video . Across the 11 marginal constituencies – including Boston & Skegness, Great Yarmouth and North Thanet – Ukip now trail the Tories by 18 per cent and Labour by 7 per cent . Tonight's survey for ITV News by ComRes is the latest in a string of polls showing Ukip's support being squeezed by Labour the Tories. However, speaking to Channel 4 News tonight, Mr Farage insisted he was looking forward to the rest of the campaign and had 'a bit of the old vim and vigour back'. He said: 'I started the campaign and think I make some mistakes. My desperation for Ukip to do well meant that I really packed the diary and the day in a way that frankly wasn't very bright. I have now trimmed it back a bit. I'm being a bit more selective.' Asked if he was 'exhausted' he said: 'No, I'm now actually rejuvenated and enjoying it again.' But told he had looked 'a bit wonky' earlier in the campaign, Mr Farage said: 'I was. No, no. Hands up I was. I had completely overdone it. 'I wasn't getting it right. I feel a bit of the old vim and vigour back and I'm looking forward to the next fortnight.' The Ukip leader - appearing on ITV's Lorraine this morning - said he had 'made some mistakes' by trying to do too much and had had to scale back his commitments .

Wigan chairman David Sharpe is adamant the decision to axe Malky Mackay in favour of rookie boss Gary Caldwell less than 24 hours later was the right call. Struggling Latics moved on to their third manager of the season on Tuesday as former club captain Caldwell was swiftly appointed in a permanent capacity after Mackay's disastrous five-month tenure had ended the previous day. Mackay left the club languishing in the Sky Bet Championship relegation zone after taking just 19 points from a possible 72 and Caldwell, who at 32 is the Football League's youngest manager, inherits a team eight points adrift of safety with just five games to go. Gary Caldwell has been officially unveiled as the new Wigan Athletic manager at the DW Stadium . Wigan chairman David Sharpe is confident he has made the right appointment in Caldwell . Gary Caldwell (Wigan) 32 . Adam Murray (Mansfield) 33 . Alex Neil (Norwich City) 33 . Lee Johnson (Barnsley) 33 . Karl Robinson (MK Dons) 34 . But rather than making an interim appointment until the end of the season, Sharpe made the bold call to hand Caldwell a rolling contract which will see him in charge at the DW Stadium next season, regardless of what division they are in. 'That shows how much I believe in Gary,' the 23-year-old Sharpe said. 'It's definitely not just for the next five games, he's got a free hit at it really. If he keeps us up it's a miracle and if we go down it's expected by everybody in this room but Gary will back himself to keep us up. 'This is a long-term thing and we're looking forward to the future with him that gets us back to our identity on and off the pitch and bring the positive times back to this football club.' The good times seem an increasingly distant memory for Wigan, who have had unsuccessful stints with Owen Coyle, Uwe Rosler and Mackay at the helm after winning the FA Cup under Roberto Martinez two years ago. Caldwell in action for Wigan last year - the centre-back has been at the club for five years . Caldwell (right) lifts the FA Cup with Emmerson Boyce after Wigan's win over Manchester City in 2013 . Wigan must make up a seven-point deficit if they are to avoid relegation and stay in the Championship . Malky Mackay was sacked as Wigan manager on Monday following their 2-0 loss to Derby County .

'I've known with my grandad, he's got a reputation for making decisive decisions and I've learned from the best,' said Sharpe. 'It had to be done and I'm looking forward to the future. 'We speak a lot but he's over in Barbados.

Summary: Caldwell was unveiled as the new Wigan Athletic manager on Wednesday . The 32-year-old is the Football League's youngest manager . Former defender replaces Malky Mackay, who was sacked on Monday . Latics are seven points from safety in the Championship table .


The mother-of-five who was arrested for allegedly throwing her 16-year-old daughter a drunken party where they played naked Twister together has admitted to turning towards alcohol during her divorce from her veteran husband. Rachel Lehnardt, 35, had been a life-long follower of the Mormon church and had never touched a drop of alcohol before her split from her husband James, who was suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder when he returned from Iraq, her lawyer said in a statement on Thursday. But following their divorce last year, she began drinking and ultimately broke away from the church, where she had once been a Sunday school teacher, the lawyer said. Her alcohol abuse culminated in the startling incident in which she allegedly allowed her daughter and her friends to drink alcohol and smoke marijuana in front of her at their Evans, Georgia home. Scroll down for video . Struggles: Rachel Lynn Lehnardt, 35, is pictured walking outside her Georgia home on Wednesday, several days after she was arrested for allegedly throwing a drunken party for her teenage daughter . She had already been drunk when her 16-year-old daughter returned with her friends, according to her lawyer, Shawn Hammond. According to authorities, Lehnardt and the teenagers then played naked Twister - although Lehnardt left halfway through the game to have sex with an 18-year-old man in the bathroom. When she returned, she brought out sex toys and started to use them on herself in front of the teenagers, Augusta Crime reported. After going to bed, she awoke around 3.30am to find her daughter's 16-year-old boyfriend raping her and immediately threw him off, according to Hammond. The girl later told her mother that she felt guilty because his 10-inch penis was too big for her, so he had to have sex with her mom instead, according to a police report. According to Hammond, Lehnardt woke the next day and realized that her drinking had got out of hand and had led to her being raped by the 16-year-old. Her daughter has now split from the boy. Video from KJBF . Arrested: Lehnardt, pictured in her mug shot, was arrested after she told her AA sponsor about the incident and the sponsor then contacted authorities. Lehnardt said she is working to put it behind her . Split: Her lawyer said Lehnardt, who is a life-long Mormon, turned to drink after divorcing from her husband James Lehnardt, pictured right. He returned from Iraq with PTSD and was later discharged, the lawyer said . After the incident, the children's paternal grandparents found out about the party from the teenage girl and were awarded custody of the five children. Lehnardt was arrested after sharing details of the incident with her Alcoholics Anonymous sponsor, who then went to authorities. As part of the AA's 12 Step program, members write a list of incidents they feel guilty about and confide in their sponsor about the acts (known as the Fifth Step). The person is then required to make amends for past wrongdoings, as long as doing so does not cause harm to

Summary: Rachel Lehnardt, 35, 'allowed her 16-year-old daughter and her friends drink alcohol and smoke marijuana in her Georgia home' They 'all played naked Twister and Lehnardt had sex with an 18-year-old man in the bathroom before playing with sex toys in front of the teens' She said she went to bed alone but awoke to her daughter's 16-year-old boyfriend having sex with her; there are no charges against him . Her lawyer says she is a life-long Mormon who turned to alcohol after her husband returned from Iraq with PTSD and they divorced . He said she is now committed to getting her life back on track . After the incident, she lost custody of her children and told her AA sponsor, who contacted authorities .


If Virgil van Dijk is absent from the shortlists for this season’s Player of the Year awards, Celtic will surely fire off a stiff missive seeking clarification on the reasons. The prospect of a Treble evaporated last Sunday, an afternoon Ronny Deila now describes as the worst of his career. ‘I sat and stared at the walls,’ said the Norwegian of the aftermath. Eight points clear of Aberdeen with five games left to play, however, his outlook is suddenly brighter. Dundee's Simon Ferry (left) tussles for possession with Celtic's James Forrest (right) on Wednesday night . Celtic's Jason Denayer (left) challenges Greg Stewart (right) during the Scottish Premiership match . Dundee's Paul McGinn (left) and Celtic's James Forrest (right) battle for the ball at Den's Park on Wednesday . Dundee (4-4-2): Bain, McGinn, Konrad, McPake, Dyer, Ferry (Davidson 69), McAlister, Harris (Tankulic 59), McGinn, Stewart, Heffernan . Subs not used: Letheren, Clarkson, Black, Wighton, Colquhoun . Booked: Ferry, McPake . Scorers: McAlister 87 . Celtic (4-4-2): Gordon, Ambrose Emuobo, van Dijk, Denayer, Izaguirre (Tierney 81), Bitton, Brown, Forrest (Commons 76), Armstrong, Mackay-Steven, Griffiths (Guidetti 76) Subs not used: Stokes, Scepovic, Zaluska, Fisher . Scorers: Mackay-Steven 32, van Dijk 63 . Referee: Calum Murray . Attendance: 8, 908 . A fourth successive title looks to be a question of when and not if. It could even happen at Pittodrie on May 10, where van Dijk scored the most significant of his impressive 10-goal haul back in November. He was at it again last night, thrashing home his second 20-yard free-kick in as many games. Ever the perfectionist, his manager still wants more. ‘Virgil has shown that ability also last season with his free-kicks. We can also see it in training, so he has to use it more. ‘It became a very good night and we have put ourselves in a very good position. Eight points ahead with five games to go — and the goal difference as well. We just have to keep on performing and putting pressure on Aberdeen.’ Last Sunday, van Dijk’s early strike against Inverness was overtaken by events. Here, his thrashing effort past Dundee keeper Scott Bain earned Celtic the two-goal lead which ultimately repelled a late rally from the hosts. Jim McAlister’s goal in the 87th minute was too little, too late. Celtic's Gary Mackay-Steven (top) jumps over the challenge from Dundee's Willie Dyer (bottom) Celtic striker Leigh Griffiths (right) goes close with an effort on goal against Dundee on Wednesday night . Celtic had claimed the lead in 32 minutes and, with painful predictability, it was laced with more refereeing controversy. It was fairly mild stuff in contrast with Sunday — and the irony of Celtic being the beneficiaries here will be lost on no one. This is a week when Scottish referees are destined to be hoist by their own petard. A week when every error, minor or major, will be punished to the maximum. The row over the Josh Meekings’ hand-ball in the Scottish Cup semi-final defeat rumbles on but there will be no Parkhead

Summary: Celtic beat Dundee 2-1 away at Den's Park on Wednesday night . The win sees them extend their lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership . Gary Mackay-Steven set the Bhoys on their way with a cool first-half finish . Virgil van Dijk scored a stunning free-kick in the second-half . Jim McAlister grabbed a late consolation for the home side on 87 minutes .


An Indian salesman is facing seven years in prison and a fine of up to one million dirham - around £186,000 - for allegedly cursing Islam and the Prophet Mohammad on Facebook. The 41-year-old man - identified only by his initials S.G. - is said to have posted a 'blasphemous' status on his Facebook page after watching a news bulletin about the war in Iraq on television last July. If found guilty, the suspect could face up to seven years in jail, a fine of between Dh250,000 to Dh1 million, or both. The Indian salesman faces imprisonment after he allegedly shared a 'blasphemous' status on his Facebook page. He told police he was sent the image over Whatsapp, but allegedly then admitted to posting the status . The 41-year-old is accused by the prosecution of posting the derogatory statements about Islam and the Prophet Mohammad after watching a news item about the Iraq war, pictured, in July last year . Lawyers for the prosecution said the man abused the social media network - namely Facebook - and the telephone communication system by cursing the Prophet and Islam, according to Gulf News. They are now looking for the toughest punishment possible under the country's cyber-crime laws. Islam is the official religion of the United Arab Emirates, and committing blasphemy is considered deeply offensive. Authorities in the country routinely censor newspapers and books that they consider contain blasphemous statements or anything critical of Islam. In the latest case, the accused salesman claimed he received the offending image over Whatsapp while he was at home . He then complained to police that he had receiving the image - but is reported to have later admitted to prosecutors that he was the one who posted the status on Facebook. The Indian employee, known only by his initials S.G., failed to attend the hearing at the Dubai Court of First Instance on Monday. The United Arab Emirates treats blasphemy as a serious criminal offence . The defendant apparently told prosecutors that he wrote the 'blasphemous' curses after watching video footage about the way in Iraq. His IPhone was seized and sent to a laboratory for forensic examination, and lawyers said the mobile was registered to the indian man's name. The accused failed to attend the Dubat Court of First Instance on Monday, and presiding judge Abdul Lat adjourned the case until the next hearing on April 27. In 2011 British tourist Andrew Graham ended up in court in Dubai after he called the Islamic prophet Mohammad a 'terrorist' during an argument in a shopping centre.

Summary: Indian man, 41, accused of posting insulting status about Islamic Prophet . Allegedly told police he wrote the status after watching footage of Iraq War . If found guilty he faces up to seven years in prison, a huge fine, or both .

The farmer stands to lose over 1 million RMB (£110,000) in potential sales, and claimed he would need at least a decade to recover. 'It's the first time that my fish farming has had such a problem since I started in 1996. I'll need another ten years to make up for this loss,' said Mr Zhang. 'It has taken me years to build the fish numbers up and my one source of income has vanished almost overnight.' Mr Zhang claims the source of the ammonia may have been fertilizer being used at a nearby farm. Other workers spread 2.5 tons of edible salt to try and address the chemical imbalance and try to save the few live fish that remained . The lake had been turned into a commercial fish farm in 1996 by owner Zhang Feng who says the devastating loss will cost him over 1 million RMB (£110,000) Two workers in protective waterproof trousers and jackets, help heave out another box of lost profits from the lake onto the shore .

The Earth experienced its hottest month of March since record-keeping began in 1880. There's been no break from the globe's record heat - the first three months of 2015 have all set new high temperature marks. Last month's average temperature soared to 56.4°F (13.6°C), which is 1.5°F (0.85°C) above the average for the 20th century. Last month's average temperature of 56.4°F (13.6°C) was the hottest March on record, averaging 1.5°F (0.85°C) above the average for the 20th century. This was the highest for March in the 1880–2015 record, surpassing the previous record of 2010 by 0.09°F (0.05°C). Pictured is how the high temperatures affected different regions of the world . The data, released today by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) takes into account global averages across land and sea surfaces. It follows earlier announcements from US government scientists that 2014 was the hottest year in modern history. Scientists warn that fossil fuel burning is pushing more greenhouse gas into the atmosphere, leading to increased temperatures, melting of polar ice and glaciers, and rising seas. 'This was the highest for March in the 1880-2015 record, surpassing the previous record of 2010 by 0.09°F (0.05°C),' said the report. The warmth was spread fairly evenly across the hemispheres. Most land areas were warmer to much warmer than average, as shown by the Temperature Percentiles map on the right, with record warmth in parts of the western United States and Canada, various regions in eastern Africa, parts of Scandinavia and northwestern Russia, part of south central China, and an area of northeastern Australia . NOAA scientist Jessica Blunden blames the heat on El Niño and climate change. El Niño is caused by a shift in the distribution of warm water in the Pacific Ocean. Usually the wind blows strongly from east to west, due to the rotation of the Earth, causing water to pile up in the western part of the Pacific. This pulls up colder water from the deep ocean in the eastern Pacific. However, in an El Niño, the winds pushing the water get weaker and cause the warmer water to shift back towards the east. This causes the eastern Pacific to get warmer. But as the ocean temperature is linked to the wind currents, this causes the winds to grow weaker still and so the ocean grows warmer, meaning the El Niño grows. This change in air and ocean currents around the equator can have a major impact on the weather patterns around the globe by creating pressure anomalies in the atmosphere. Last month, the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration now predicts that there is now a 50 to 60 per cent chance El Niño will continue through the summer. For the first three months of the year, the average temperature worldwide was 1.48°F (0.82°C) above the 20th-century average. That marked the highest ever recorded for that period, surpassing the previous record in 2002 by 0.09°F (0.05°C). Also of concern was the finding that Arctic sea ice was the lowest on record for March. 'The average Arctic sea ice extent

Summary: World experience average temperatures of 56.4°F (13.6°C) last month - 1.5°F above average for the 20th century . First 3 months of 2015 have set new high temperature marks, and the trend could continue throughout the year . Scientists warn fossil fuels are pushing greenhouse gas into the atmosphere, leading to increased temperatures . But El Niño, a blob of record hot water in the Northeast Pacific Ocean, could also be driving up temperatures .


The Australian Rugby Union reacted to the flood of top players heading abroad on Wednesday with a groundbreaking policy shift which will allow experienced Wallabies playing at foreign clubs to be selected for test matches. Effective immediately, players with 60 caps who have held professional contract with Australian Rugby for at least seven years will be eligible to continue their international careers even if they are signed to a club overseas. Other players based abroad will immediately become eligible if they commit to playing Super Rugby in Australia for the following two seasons. Drew Mitchell (l) and Matt Giteau (r) of Toulon are now eligible for Australia after the ARU passed a new rule . Players with over 60 caps playing overseas could now be selected (Giteau pictured for Australia in 2010) Matt Giteau (Toulon) Drew Mitchell (Toulon) George Smith (Lyon) Adam Ashley-Cooper (Bordeaux)* . Sekope Kepu (Bordeaux)** . James Horwill (Harlequins)** . Wycliff Palu (Japan)** . *set to sign for club next season . **set to sign for club next season and don't have 60 caps (but could do this year) 'For some time we've been grappling with the issue of overseas clubs recruiting our players,' ARU chief executive Bill Pulver told reporters. 'While we do not belief these policy changes are a silver bullet, we do believe that they represent a positive step towards delivering the outcomes we want.' Flyhalf Matt Giteau and winger Drew Mitchell, who both play for Toulon, as well as flanker George Smith, who also plays in France, would immediately qualify to play at the World Cup later this year. Wallabies Will Genia, Adam Ashley-Cooper, Nic White, Peter Betham, Sekope Kepu and James Horwill are all off to European clubs for next year, while Wycliff Palu is decamping to Japan. Media reports on Wednesday said flyhalf Quade Cooper was on the verge of signing for Toulon and two other high profile Wallabies backs, Israel Folau and Kurtley Beale, have yet to commit to the ARU beyond the end of the season. George Smith is currently a flanker for Lyon and would be eligible to play for Australia again . James Horwill is set to leave the Reds to join Harlequins in England next season . Nick Abendanon (Clermont) Steffon Armitage (Toulon) Delon Armitage (Toulon) Matthew Tait (Bayonne) Toby Flood (Toulouse) Of those, only outside back Ashley-Cooper has passed the 60-cap threshold but prop Kepu, lock Horwill, Cooper and number eight Palu could reach the mark this season. 'It is deliberately a high number,' Pulver added. 'It ensures only the truly elite players overseas will be eligible and it provides real incentive for younger elite players to stay in Australia longer in order to meet that threshold.' The ARU's parlous financial position -- losses of £3.26million for 2014 were announced this week -- has made it hard for them to counter offers from wealthy European clubs. Pulver said the ARU was going to be more aggressive about repatriating players in the future and hoped the new policy would make Australians less attractive to foreign clubs. 'I think

Summary: Australia to allow overseas players with over 60 caps to be selected . They also must have held Australian Rugby contract for seven years . Matt Giteau and Drew Mitchell (both at Toulon) are both now eligible . George Smith (Lyon) is another Wallaby currently playing overseas . Host of top Australian players are heading abroad next season .


With its blend of Portuguese and Chinese culture, it didn’t take us long to discover the unique appeal of Macau. Soon after arriving by high-speed TurboJET ferry from Hong Kong, we were sitting in Antonio, a beautifully tiled restaurant that could easily have been in Lisbon. The food and drink was excellent (owner Antonio Coelho whips up a mean souffle), and the fado singing of entertainer Marcelino was truly memorable. Scroll down for video . Macau has 26 casinos, including the largest in the world, The Venetian . Located at the mouth of the Pearl River Delta at the southern tip of China, Macau comprises a peninsula and two islands – Taipa and Coloane – connected by three dramatic bridges. It was run by Portugal until 1999 when it became a special Administrative Region of China. Wandering with our guide through Macau’s Historic Centre the next morning, it was evident how the Portuguese influence has been maintained through the architecture and cobbled streets. The highlights for us were the Ruins of St Paul’s, elegant Senado Square, and A-Ma Temple, which is more than 500 years old. My husband Neil and I were impressed by just how clean and tidy Macau is – they even have WCs for dogs with entrances marked In and Out. Judith Chalmers and her husband travelled to the city and it didn’t take them long to discover the unique appeal of Macau . After lunch at Cafe Litoral (a fusion of Portuguese, Chinese, Indian, South American, African and Malaysian flavours – it works!) we headed over to the Macau Tower, which has the world’s highest bungee jump. Plunging 764ft in 17 seconds is not for the faint-hearted, but neither is Skywalk X, where you are harnessed and take a thrilling – if that’s the word – walk around the outer rim of the Tower with nothing to hold on to. We were disappointed that, for technical reasons, we weren’t able to see the multi-million-pound production of The House Of Dancing Water. Incredible skyline! View of Grand Lisboa and Wynn Hotel and Casino at dusk . Developed by the man behind many of Cirque du Soleil’s dazzling shows, it features acrobats, motorcycle stunts and fountain effects. Mention Macau and many people automatically think ‘casinos’. There are 26 of them, including the world’s biggest, The Venetian. It looks the size of Wembley and has about 500 baccarat, roulette and blackjack tables. Contrasting scenery! The peaceful Coloane island is world's apart from Macau . Gambling is illegal in Hong Kong, except on horseracing, so thousands from Hong Kong as well as mainland China try their luck here. Free shuttle buses run between the casinos, and as the doorman at our hotel, the Sofitel, said: ‘It’s either that or a Rolls-Royce!’ Lord Stow's Bakery is the home to the Portuguese egg custard tart . The island of Coloane, meanwhile, has green hills, small villages and a peaceful coastline. In the Town Square we were intrigued to find Lord Stow’s Bakery, home to the Portuguese egg custard tart. Launched by Englishman Andrew Stow

Summary: Macau in China offers a whirlwind of activities and attractions . From the 764ft bungee jump to the 26 casinos, thrillseekers will be satisfied . Nearby the sleepy island of Coloane is waiting to be discovered .


Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers accepts Champions League football is unlikely to return to Anfield next season, but insisted once again that contract rebel Raheem Sterling will do. This has been an uncomfortable week on Merseyside after the England forward's ill-advised interview only heightened speculation over his future. Sterling told the BBC that he turned down a new £100,000-a-week deal but insisted he was not a 'money-grabbing 20-year-old', while also admitting that links to Saturday's opponents Arsenal were 'quite flattering'. Raheem Sterling will still be a Liverpool player next season, insists Reds boss Brendan Rodgers . Sterling (left) started Liverpool's 4-1 defeat at Arsenal on Saturday despite going public over his club contract . Rodgers spoke to the forward about the week's events yet still started him at the Emirates Stadium, where the Gunners all but ended Liverpool's hopes of a top-four finish with a comfortable 4-1 win. 'The reaction and commitment of the players has been first class since (the defeat to Crystal Palace in November),' Rodgers said. 'Really, up until the Manchester United game we were the form team and playing very, very well. 'But we have been dealt two big blows in these last two games, we haven't performed how we would like and that has ultimately cost us in terms of the result. 'I very much doubt we will be in the top four now come the end of the season. There's too much ground to make up - that's the realistic view from me. 'Now, we must really focus on the FA Cup and that has got to be very, very important for us.' The 20-year-old (right) has turned down a new £100,000-a-week deal and put off talks until the summer . Liverpool take on Blackburn in a replay of their FA Cup quarter-final on Wednesday, when talk about Sterling will no doubt still be dominating the headlines. Rodgers is only interested on what is happening with the forward on the field, though, and wants another impressive performance from the England international at Ewood Park. 'There was no change in him,' he said of Sterling. 'I thought he was excellent today, our best player. 'He was aggressive in his running, pressed the ball well, won the penalty and was very direct and strong, so I thought he was excellent today.' Rodgers was peppered with questions about Sterling in the post-match press conference, during which he said 'a big part of this is actually nothing to do with him'. Sterling (top) did win the visitors' penalty after he was fouled by Bellering (bottom) in the second half . The Liverpool manager was coy when asked about outside influences destabilising both club and player, but was forthright when it came to the forward's future. 'At 20 years of age - and just turned 20 in December - there is still a long way for him to go,' said Rodgers, who confirmed Mario Balotelli deemed himself unfit to travel after receiving a knock in training. 'He has got a lot of potential. I believe that potential he can really develop over

Summary: Arsenal beat Liverpool 4-1 in their Premier League encounter on Saturday . Raheem Sterling won a second half penalty for the visitors at the Emirates . Sterling has turned down a Liverpool deal worth £100,000-a-week . 20-year-old gave an interview to the BBC on Wednesday over the issue . Defeat leaves seven points adrift of fourth-placed Manchester City - in race for qualifying for next season's Champions League .


Welcome to the exoplanet HD 189733b, where temperatures reach 3,000°C (5,400°F) and winds are in excess of 620mph (1,000km/h). This world might be 63 light-years away - and we can’t even get a direct image of it - but scientists have incredibly been able to measure its atmosphere, just by measuring its sodium emission. The findings - made with a relatively small telescope - suggest we may soon have the opportunity to examine other distant worlds beyond the solar system in unprecedented detail. Swiss researchers measured the temperature of 'Hot Jupiter' HD 189733b. They found the temperature reaches up to 3,000°C in the atmosphere (shown in diagram). And wind speeds are in excess of 620 miles per hour. The findings were made using a novel technique relying on sodium signals . The research was carried out by scientists from the Universities of Geneva and Bern in Switzerland. HD 189733b is a gas-giant slightly larger than Jupiter located 370 trillion miles (600 trillion km) from Earth - or 63 light-years. It is located in the constellation Vulpecula in the night sky - also known as the ‘little fox’. The scientists found that the temperature on the planet increases dramatically with altitude – up to 3,000°C (5,400°F) in the upper atmosphere, hot enough to melt lead. Type: 'Hot Jupiter' gas giant . Distance from Earth: 63 light years . Temperature: Up to 3,000°C (5,400°F) Wind speed: 620mph (1,000km/h) Conditions: Glass particles in the atmosphere give it its dazzling blue colour. Coupled with the extremely high wind speed of 620 mph (1,000km/h), it reveals the planet has an extremely turbulent atmosphere - and is almost certainly inhospitable to life. The planet was already known to orbit 13 times closer to its star that Mercury is to our sun, completing an orbit in just 2.2 days. But the results are exciting, because it highlights just how much information we can glean from a distant world with limited technologies. Speaking to MailOnline, subproject leader Dr Kevin Heng said it could be possible to measure the conditions on an Earth-like world using this technique – although the process was difficult. ‘It remains to be seen if the astronomical community is able to do these measurements for Earth analogues,’ he said. The difficulty arises because an Earth-sized world blocks out much less of the light of its parent star compared to a Jupiter-sized world like HD 189733 b . ‘It would help if we can find an Earth-like exoplanet orbiting a really bright star,’ Dr Heng added. And he said the research was important because they used a 'dinky four-metre telescope from the ground to do measurements of the quality as the Hubble Space Telescope.'

Summary: Swiss researchers examined the 'Hot Jupiter' planet HD 189733b . Temperatures reach 3,000°C in the atmosphere and wind speed is 620mph . Findings were comparable in quality to the Hubble Space Telescope . But the researchers used a 'relatively dinky' telescope, suggesting the method could be replicated by other astronomers to study exoplaents .


This is the 24-year-old mother who was allegedly shot dead by her Marine veteran husband in an Alabama doctor's office after he wrote a chilling Facebook post saying he was going to 'die today'. Leaj Jarvis Price was reportedly gunned down by Eric Heath Price, the 25-year-old father of her six-year-old son, on Monday after she ran into the surgery in Jemison screaming 'call the police'. Price then returned to their nearby home and staged a standoff with around 40 police officers for several hours, authorities said. When police fired tear gas into the house, he came outside. He was taken to hospital with a self-inflicted gunshot wound to his head. His condition remains unknown. He has since been charged with the murder of Mrs Price, who was a nursing student.

Price then had a stand-off with police . On the day of the shooting, Price apparently posted on his Facebook page: 'I'm sorry everyone, its been real, good bye and i love you all' and 'I dei [sic] today.' The page was taken down shortly after. Mrs Price, who lived next door to the doctor's office with her family, is believed to have got into an argument with her husband, before running to the center, run by Dr Jay Patel, in a bid to get help. Court records show that the couple had been in a long-running custody battle over their son, who was at school at the time of the shooting and features in many of Mrs Price's Facebook photos. When Mrs Price arrived at the doctor's office, she screamed for help. Six or seven doctors rushed out to help, but when the suspect got inside, he allegedly pulled the gun and shot her in the head. Speaking to reporters on Monday, Jemison police chief Shane Fulmer said: 'There never was an active shooter, no hostages. The individual was shot inside the doctor's office.' He added: 'The first thing [Mrs Price] said when she came in was, "Call the police".'

Jim Furyk defeated Kevin Kisner on the second play-off hole to win the RBC Heritage title at Hilton Head and record a first PGA Tour victory since 2010. The former US Open champion, 44, carded a superb final round eight-under-par 63 which included six birdies on his first nine holes to move ahead of overnight leader Troy Merritt, whose three-shot lead evaporated with a 69 on Sunday, when play was started early because of fears over the weather. However, it was not enough to see off Kisner, who also tied at 18 under when he sank a birdie with his final putt. US veteran Jim Furyk celebrates after completing victory at the RBC Heritage . The 2010 winner claimed a second title at Harbour Town after coming through a playoff against Kevin Kisner . The former US Open champion hit a final round 63 to finish 18-under in regulation play . Jim Furyk -18 . Kevin Kisner -18 . Troy Merritt -16 . Brendon Todd -15 . Matt Kuchar -14 . After levelling the first additional hole with birdies on the 18th, it was Furyk who emerged victorious to claim the tartan jacket when he dropped in his second shot at the par-three 17th from 12ft after Kisner had come up short. Furyk revealed his delight at ending his title drought, telling the PGA Tour website: 'I've let so many slide by, I really dug deep today and I'm happy I got it done.' He admitted he rode his luck on the front nine, where he approached the turn on six under for his round despite several way ward shots. 'I hit a bad drive at two, I hit a bad second shot at two, I hit about 14 trees down the right side and I hit a nine iron to two feet and made birdie,' he said. 'I tugged it off three, it's going way left - where I'm going to get blocked out - and it hits a tree and drops on the fairway, I knock a five iron on to the green. 'Then I tugged it off the fifth tee really bad, hit a tree and dropped down in front of the lake instead of going in the lake and turned that into a par. 'At that point I'm thinking 'I've got to start hitting the ball a little bit better here but things are going my way'. I kind of righted the ship for six through 10 and felt a little bit better about my swing and putts were going in left and right on that front nine. 'I really didn't hit it that well to shoot 30 on the front (nine), I know it sounds funny but I just made everything.' Kisner took his countryman all the way before losing sudden death playoff at the 17th hole . Recent US Masters champion Jordan Spieth finished tied 11th after a final round 70 . Luke Donald was the highest placed Englishman after tied 15th on nine-under par . Merrit, who had hit a course-record 61 on Friday, finished

Disneyland has captured the imaginations for generations since its opening in 1955, but there is much that many people do not know about this magical place. Chris Strodder has created a handy book, The Disneyland Book of Lists, which contains over 200 lists crammed full of secrets known and those more obscure. You will find out how many people have given birth in Disneyland, California, what the official pet food brand is, and how the ladies' heels got stuck in melting pavement on the opening day. Here, MailOnline Travel looks at some of the more unusual facts about the world-famous resort that you may not have known about... Scroll down for video . Disneyland has seen a number of changes since its grand beginning in 1955 to the worldwide popular theme park it is today, pictured here is Sleeping Beauty's Castle back in 1955 (left) and how it looks today (right) 1. Before Disney was opened Walt received a wealth of advice, most of which he ignored. This included building non-revenue attractions (such as Sleeping Beauty's castle), not selling alcohol to increase profits, and for customer convenience, offer multiple entrances and exits). However for a short time guests could get beer with their picnic baskets in the outdoor Holidayland in 1957-1961. 2. In the Fantasyland's Peter Pan ride, as guests fly out of the bedroom window, sometimes the alphabet blocks spell out Disney. 3. On Main Street, there is a tribute to Walt Disney's father, Elias Disney, in a window above the emporium. 4. When Disneyland first opened in California on July 17, 1955, it was predicted that 10,000 people would attend. Celebrities, reporters, employees, and sponsors were given staggered times on their tickets, to ease congestion getting in. However many people arrived earlier than their allotted time, with 20,000 more hopefuls queuing outside for miles around. Walt Disney received a wealth of advice, most of which he ignored before opening his fun park . Disneyland in California is the only theme park designed and built under the direct supervision of Walt Disney . 5. The summer heat on that opening Sunday was so great that some of the newly poured pavement started to soften, and trapped some of the ladies' heels. 6. It was intended that there would be a Peter Pan Crocodile Attraction with live fish. Disney artist Bruce Bushman included the aquarium on his original designs, which depicted guests walking through a crocodile's jaws to get to a marine viewing area. 7. In 1955, an adult ticket cost a mere $1, with additional charges for attractions. Even with the extra costs, the average spend was $2.37 (according to a press release by Disney, and included parking charges of 25 cents, admission, rides, amusements and souvenirs. 8. This cost contrasts strongly with 2015, and tickets are now priced at $99, attractions included. It is estimated that guests spend a whopping 83 times the amount they did in 1955, totalling $196. This includes the $17 parking, admission, souvenirs, and an estimated average food spend of $50. A then and now comparison
