There at least 200 billion Earth-like planets in our galaxy – and now Nasa officials claim we could be on the verge of finding life on one of them. During a talk in Washington today, the space agency announced that humanity is likely to encounter extra-terrestrials within a decade. 'I believe we are going to have strong indications of life beyond Earth in the next decade and definitive evidence in the next 10 to 20 years,' Ellen Stofan, chief scientist for Nasa, said. Scroll down for video . During a talk today, Nasa announced that humanity will encounter extra-terrestrials within a decade. 'I believe we are going to have strong indications of life beyond Earth in the next decade and definitive evidence in the next 10 to 20 years,' said Ellen Stofan, chief scientist for Nasa, (pictured) at a Washington panel discussion . 'We know where to look, we know how to look, and in most cases we have the technology.' Jeffery Newmark, interim director of heliophysics at the agency, added: 'It's definitely not an if, it's a when.' 'We are not talking about little green men,' Stofan said. 'We are talking about little microbes.' The announcement has been prompted by the recent discovery of water by Nasa in surprising places. Jim Green, director of planetary science at Nasa, noted that a recent study of the Martian atmosphere found 50 per cent of the planet's northern hemisphere once had oceans a mile deep. Scientists using the Hubble recently provided powerful evidence that Jupiter's moon Ganymede (pictured) has a saltwater, sub-surface ocean, likely sandwiched between two layers of ice . The same study found that water had been present on the red planet for up to 1.2 billion year. 'We think that long period of time is necessary for life to get more complex,' Stofan said. Nasa associate administrator John Grunsfeld said he is excited about seeing what form life beyond Earth may take. In their hunt for alien life, astronomers have so far focused on looking for Earth-like planets around smaller, cooler suns. But these exoplanets - despite having a chance of holding water - are believed to be locked in a rotation around their sun which causes only one side of their surface face the star. Now astronomers claim that such exoplanets actually rotate around their stars, and spin at such a speed that they exhibit a day-night cycle similar to Earth – increasing the chance of finding alien life. Planets with potential oceans could have a climate that is much more similar to Earth's than previously expected,' said Jérémy Leconte, a postdoctoral fellow at the Canadian Institute for Theoretical Astrophysics (CITA) at the University of Toronto. 'If we are correct, there is no permanent, cold night side on exoplanets causing water to remain trapped in a gigantic ice sheet,' he said. 'Whether this new understanding of exoplanets' climate increases the ability of these planets to develop life remains an open question.' 'Once we get beyond Mars, which formed from the same stuff as Earth, the likelihood that life is similar

Summary: The comment was made today by Ellen Stofan, chief Nasa scientist . 'It's definitely not an if, it's a when,' added Nasa's Jeffery Newmark . But the likelihood that life is similar to that on Earth is low, they said . Signs of water have been found on some of Jupiter and Saturn's moons .


Adrian Peterson is to meet with the NFL to discuss his reinstatement. The Minnesota Vikings running back played once last season before being placed on the Commissioner's Exempt list due to a child abuse case. The 30-year-old was was due to be reinstated on April 15, but according to NFL media insider Ian Rapoport, Peterson will meet with the NFL this week. Peterson's situation is far from clear, with the 2012 MVP telling ESPN he was 'uneasy' about returning to the franchise. Adrian Peterson has plenty to chew over but the Minnesota Vikings do not want to trade their star back . It has been a turbulent seven months for Peterson, who has been linked with the Cowboys and Cardinals . His main bone of contention is said to be with chief operating officer Kevin Warren, whom the Peterson camp claims attempted to keep him off the field last year. The Vikings start offseason workouts in a fortnight and head coach Mike Zimmer has repeatedly spoken of his desire for Peterson to stay. 'I'm not going to speculate on what he wants or doesn't want,' Zimmer said last month. 'Adrian's under contract for three more years with us, and that's why you sign those contracts. That's why you get these big bonuses, you know?' 'We have no plans to trade Adrian,' he said, definitively. Peterson is under contract for 2015, and is set to earn a base salary of $12.75million from the Vikings. The Dallas Cowboys and the Arizona Cardinals are repeatedly linked as potential landing spots and when his status is settled, it will be one step nearer to finding out where his future lies.

Summary: Peterson has been banned since September 17 after child abuse case involving his four-year-old son and a switch . He played just one game for the Vikings last year and was due to be reinstated on April 15 . But the NFL have moved that date forward and the 2012 running back will know more about his future . The Vikings have repeatedly said they want to keep the 30-year-old, who is due to earn $12.75m this year . But the Cowboys and the Cardinals have been linked with Peterson, and the former have made some intriguing roster moves to free up cap space .

The school exam season is nearly upon us; cue a nerve-jangling few months for parents and children alike. For many youngsters, the thought of a single desk with nothing more than a white paper on it and a ticking clock nearby fills them with dread. At best, students get jittery, at worst, their actual grade can be affected. A new survey by academics at Lancashire's Edge Hill University and the University of South Australia has charted a direct link between anxiety and performance, saying pupils who worry about their exam performance are more likely to do badly than those who are less anxious. Countdown to the exam season: A new study by Lancashire's Edge Hill University found a direct link between anxiety ahead of taking exams and grades achieved . The study, which has been published in the British Journal of Educational Psychology, questioned 705 pupils from 11 schools. Researcher Dr Dave Putwain, Reader in Education at Edge Hill University, said: 'There is no doubt that a high degree of worry over one’s performance, or the consequences of one´s performance, has a detrimental effect on GCSE results.' He continued: 'Our study, which was controlled for prior attainment and also how good students were at dealing with exam pressure, found that increased worry still predicted lower achievement.' With that in mind, how can you best ensure your offspring rides the exam storm and comes out the other end feeling happy and achieving what they'd hoped for? FEMAIL has enlisted the help of Michael Ribton, principal at Burlington Danes Academy in West London, which achieved an outstanding grade at its last OFSTED inspection, to offer some sage advice to parents and students on how to get through the tricky months ahead. If Ribton is more than used to getting teenagers to apply themselves in his day job, he's also used to it at home. This summer, his son Joe, 18, will sit A levels, while his daughter Maddy, 16, will take her GCSES. He says: 'Our May half-term holiday has been cancelled so that they are free to get on with revision. 'Their bedrooms are adorned with flashcards and files; their revision timetables and exam timetables are on display in the kitchen. It’s a busy time!' Principal at Burlington Danes Academy Michael Ribton, pictured above (left) helping a pupil to revise, says parents should pin their offspring's revision timetable on the fridge and really engage with them during the lead up to the stressful exam period . Here, he offers his essential guide to how to ease the passage of students bound for the exam hall: . DEVISE A BESPOKE REVISION PLAN THAT INCLUDES REWARDS OF TIME OFF . 'Draw up a revision timetable and stick to it. 'Set yourself goals and reward yourself with time off. A common error is forgetting to add up your cumulative hours on each subject so that you are not overly focusing on one subject. 'Parents need to be part of this as well. A revision timetable should be on the fridge at home! 'Students also need to

Video footage has emerged which appears to show Manchester City supporters singing a vile song about the Munich Air Disaster outside Old Trafford. The clip, uploaded to YouTube, looks to have been taken after Sunday's Manchester derby which United won 4-2. It shows police on horseback on the forecourt behind the away section struggling to keep the two sets of rival fans apart. Manchester City fans were filmed singing a vile song about the Munich Disaster outside Old Trafford . Apparently taken by a City fan, it then appears to capture City supporters singing the song which mocks the 1958 tragedy in which 23 people died including Manchester United players. A Greater Manchester Police spokesman said that they would examine video evidence with both clubs to determine whether further action was necessary. He added: 'GMP would like to again stress that the overwhelming majority of fans in attendance behaved impeccably but any reports of offensive chanting, gestures or remarks will be investigated by officers to establish whether any criminal offences have taken place.' Inside the ground, as revealed by Sportsmail, a handful of fans of Manuel Pellegrini's side were thrown out by stewards after being accused of making aeroplane gestures mocking the crash. A host of United greats, including Duncan Edwards, Tommy Taylor and Roger Byrne, died following the disaster which saw their plane crash during a third attempt at a take-off in wintry conditions.

The plane had just made a refuelling stop on its way back from the former Yugoslavia, where United had played Red Star Belgrade in the European Cup. Among the dead was former City goalkeeper Frank Swift, who was working as a journalist. Police made eight arrests at the derby and praised the behaviour of the overwhelming majority of the 76,000 sell-out crowd. City have worked long and hard to cut out such chants and references. Club representatives laid a wreath at the memorial to the disaster in Munich prior to their match against Bayern in 2011 and urged fans to honour the minute's silence held at Old Trafford on the 50th anniversary in 2008 when they were the visitors.

Mario Gomez's predatory instincts and a late goal by substitute Juan Vargas ensured Fiorentina qualified for the Europa League semi-finals. Fiorentina had one foot in the next stage of Europe's second tier cup competition thanks to Khouma Babacar's all-important away goal during the closing stages of last Thursday's first leg encounter in Kiev. The Ukrainian outfit knew they were in for a hard task at the Stadio Artemio Franchi as they faced the likes of Mohamed Salah, Joaquin and Gomez. Fiorentina ace Mario Gomez scored the opening goal of the game in the 43rd minute to help his side qualify . The home side celebrate after Gomez's fortunate shot lands in the back of Oleksandr Shovkovskiy's net . Dynamo Kiev's Jeremain Lens was given his marching orders shortly before the interval for an apparent dive . FIORENTINA (4-3-3): Neto; Tomovic, Rodriguez, Savic, Marcos Alonso; Borja Valero (Badelj 79), Pizarro (Aquilani 84), Fernandez; Joaquin, Gomez, Mohamed Salah (Vargas 88) Subs not used: Tatarusanu, Ilicic, Pasqual, Basanta . Goal: Gomez 43, Vargas 90 . DYNAMO KIEV (4-2-3-1): Shovkovskiy; Antunes, Khacheridi, Danilo Silva, Vida; Rybalka, Buyalskyy (Sydorchuk 69); Lens, Belhanda (Kalitvintsev 63), Yarmolenko; Teodorczyk (Husyev 45) Subs not used: Garmash, Chumak, Rybka, Betao . Booked: Lens . Sent off: Lens 40 . Referee: Jonas Eriksson (Sweden) And their mission to seal a spot in the next round was made near enough impossible due to an incredibly rash decision by Swedish referee Jonas Eriksson. The Scandinavian official ruined Dynamo Kiev's hopes of upsetting the Viola by brandishing a red card in the direction of Holland international Jeremain Lens. Eriksson showed Lens a second yellow card as he decided to penalise the former PSV forward for diving inside the penalty area. The wrong call was made as replays showed Lens was slightly clipped when he made his way towards goal. It was one of those occasions where the referee should have simply let play continue. Dynamo Kiev manager and former Tottenham striker Sergei Rebrov was forced into taking off striker Lukasz Teodorczyk moments before the interval, which subsequently minimised the away side's goal threat during the second half. Salah, who has proven his doubters wrong since swapping Chelsea for Fiorentina in February, almost doubled his side's lead when he managed to jiggle his way past several defenders before shooting at goal. The Egyptian international's shot appeared to be heading into the back of Oleksandr Shovkovskiy's net until Danilo used his hand to intercept. Dynamo Kiev, despite their best efforts, failed to really threaten Fiorentina after being reduced to 10 men as Vincenzo Montella's side elected to play the passing game. Late substitute Vargas put the result beyond doubt when he ran down the left wing before smashing the ball past Shovkovskiy. Fiorentina will face either Napoli, Sevilla or Dnipro for a place in this year's Europa League final in Warsaw. Referee Jonas Eriksson shows Holland international Lens a second yellow card in the 40th minute . Mohamed Salah, who joined Fiorentina on a loan deal from Chelsea, came close to doubling his side's lead . Late substitute

SS Sergeant Oskar Groening - known as 'the bookkeeper of Auschwitz' - is set to go on trial charged with complicity in the killing of 300,000 Jews at the Nazi extermination camp . An SS sergeant known as 'the bookkeeper of Auschwitz' is set to go on trial charged with complicity in the killing of 300,000 Jews at the Nazi extermination camp. Auschwitz survivors and the relatives of those murdered there filed into court today for the trial of 93-year-old Oskar Groening - who may well have met their loved ones shortly before they were gassed. They spoke of their pain, pride and duty in confronting this 'cog' in the machinery of genocide. Groening, known as 'The Bookkeeper' for his role in the camp in Nazi-occupied Poland, was tasked with meeting the trains bringing victims there and robbing those aboard of their possessions. Between May 16 and July 11, 1944 he was on duty when 450,000 Hungarian Jews were transported there, with 300,000 being gassed just after arrival. Now those who lost loved ones have travelled thousands of miles to bear witness as co-plaintiffs against Groening in what may prove to be the last Nazi trial of its kind in Germany. 'I lost 49 members of my family in the Holocaust,' said Eva Pusztai-Fahidi, 89, from Budapest. 'He must have been there, on the ramp, witnessing the suffering. Now I want to look into his eyes and see him recognise his guilt. 'The Holocaust was made of small men like him, little cogs in the machine. It wasn't just big fish, it was people like Oskar Groening. It doesn't matter what his punishment is, but the verdict. The Holocaust deniers can always say a little old Jewish woman told lies. But they will not be able to deny the words of a single SS man who admits he was there.' Hedy Bohm, 87, travelled from Toronto, Canada, with her daughter to bear witness for her lost family. She too lost numerous family members, her father and his sister, together with her small baby, on the day they arrived. 'I am so grateful to have been given this opportunity to come here and testify,' she said. 'I don't know if I ever saw him. But he was there. And there can be no statute of limitations on people who served in such a place.' Groening, a sergeant in the dreaded SS, was in Auschwitz as a guard for two and-a-half years, but prosecutors are charging him with complicity in the murders of 300,000 people who arrived on 137 trains during the 48 day period of that summer in 1944 because of his intact service records.

Counterterrorism agencies have arrested two suspected Australian terrorists in Turkey on Thursday after they were caught trying to sneak into Syria to join the Islamic State. The Daily Telegraph reports that the two were found trying to use what has become a familiar potential route taken by Australian jihadists going to the Middle East. It happened a day after Turkey agreed to a new extradition treaty and an intelligence-sharing agreement with Australia. Australian officials confirmed the arrest of the two men. Two men were caught on a familiar route leading into the Middle East from Turkey. It's claimed they were on their way to join with the Islamic State . The new agreement was also initiated to close the Turkish border to radicalised Australians and have them sent back to Australia to face possible jail terms under new foreign fighter legislation. Two men are believed to be still detained in Turkey. Officials could not confirm if and when they would be returned to Australia. The new extradition treaty and an intelligence-sharing agreement was struck on Wednesday during a meeting between Prime Minister Tony Abbott and Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu in the Turkish capital Ankara. The men were arrested in Turkey by counterterrorism agencies after being caught trying to sneak into Syria to join terror groups such as Islamic State . The extradition treaty specifically covers the detention and extradition of Australian foreign fighters. It would also cover criminal activity such as drug trafficking. Currently there are now an estimated 100 in Syria and Iraq, the majority of these make their way to the Middle east through Turkey. Australia has also agreed to expand its intelligence sharing with Turkish counterterrorism agencies. To counter the Islamic State, a new extradition treaty and an intelligence-sharing agreement deal was struck on Wednesday between Australia and Turkey . 'The important thing is to ensure that if Australians are tempted to go overseas and do the wrong thing we stop them — and that is happening,' Mr Abbott said. 'If people seek to return to Australia we want them arrested, prosecuted and jailed.' Mr Davutoglu said: 'If Australia wants anyone detained or deported then we are ready to take those steps.' Prime Minister Tony Abbott said the new deal was to ensure that 'if Australians are tempted to go overseas and do the wrong thing we stop them' Sorry we are not currently accepting comments on this article.

Summary: Two men were caught on a familiar route leading into the Middle East . The pair are believed to be still detained in Turkey for foreseeable future . Officials could not confirm if and when they would be returned to Australia . It comes day after Australia and Turkey sign anti-terrorism treaty . The new deal will also cover criminal activity such as drug trafficking .


Locked up: Martin Alvarado Jr, 23, allegedly repeatedly hit his girlfriend's young son last week . A 23-year-old man beat his girlfriend's 18-month-old son to death for urinating him as he changed the boy's diaper, according to police. Martin Alvarado Jr., from Cicero, Illinois, appeared in court on Monday on a first-degree murder charge for the death of Edwin Eli O'Reilly and has been ordered to be held without bail. He was watching Edwin at their home in Cicero last Thursday when the toddler urinated on him during a diaper change, according to authorities. Enraged, Alvarado allegedly repeatedly hit the little boy. Police and paramedics responded to the home following a call about an unresponsive child and Edwin was rushed to MacNeal Hospital in Berywn, where he later died. According to the Cook County Medical Examiner, the child suffered from multiple blunt force trauma and his death was ruled a homicide. During questioning, Alvarado allegedly confessed to the assault on videotape, the Chicago Tribune reported. An Illinois Department of Children and Family Services spokeswoman said the agency had prior contact with the family, but would not provide further details. Scene: He was looking after the boy at his home on this Cicero, Illinois block when he allegedly became enraged that the boy urinated on him during a diaper change.

Does any player fluctuate between world-beater and under-achiever more than Andros Townsend? Currently on a high after his stunning equaliser for England against Italy in Turin on Tuesday night, the 23-year-old Tottenham winger has already had more ups and downs than most players experience in their careers. On his day, Townsend stands in comparison with the very best. He terrifies defenders with his speed and directness – a trait he also possesses off the pitch judging by his 'told you so' tweet to a critical Paul Merson this week. That ability was first noticed two years ago when he single-handedly tried to save QPR from relegation with a string of virtuoso performances. Later in 2013, he turned in two of the great international displays of recent years when he destroyed Montenegro and Poland at Wembley to book England's place at the World Cup. Andros Townsend unleashes an unstoppable right-footed strike from 20 yards to score England's equaliser . The Tottenham and England winger celebrates his goal against Italy, which was his third for his country . His strike in Turin, measured at 77.2mph, was further evidence he belongs on the top table. 'We are indebted to Andros – he is a game-changer,' said England manager Roy Hodgson. And yet... How can a player with Townsend's obvious ability be sent out to nine different clubs on loan by Spurs. Why has he still not played a full 90 minutes for his club in the Premier League this season? How come in the autumn it was Townsend rather than Aaron Lennon who was seen as surplus to requirements at White Hart Lane? He has scored as many goals for England as he has done in the Premier League for Spurs. Wingers are by nature of their position more inconsistent than other players. If they are starved of service, they can appear ineffectual. And if they try too hard when they do get the ball, they can squander possession. And even by wingers' standards, Townsend is a risk-taker. It can make him look unstoppable at times and a waste of time at others. Hodgson admitted agonising about giving him a debut ahead of James Milner and Jack Wilshere against Montenegro 18 months ago, but he was man of the match and scored the important third goal in a 4-1 England victory. Townsend celebrates scoring England's third goal against Montenegro in a World Cup qualifier . Townsend as a pundit for ITV during the World Cup . Articulate and bright – his father Troy is a leading figure in football's anti-racism body Kick It Out – he was comfortable in the television studio as a pundit at last summer's World Cup when an ankle injury ruled him out of Hodgson's squad. Sometimes intelligence also means a determination to play the game your way, not always appreciated by managers obsessed by tactics. Townsend thrived with Harry Redknapp at QPR but it didn't look as if he fitted in under Mauricio Pochettino at Spurs. He started the season being used for Capital One Cup and Europa League games

Summary: Andros Townsend scored England's equaliser against Italy on Tuesday . Goal was the Tottenham winger's third in seven games for England . But Townsend's club form has been patchy in last two seasons . Challenge now is for Townsend to replicate international form for Spurs . CLICK HERE for the latest Tottenham news .


It may look like CGI in the trailer, but the droid that will join R2-D2 in the forthcoming Star Wars film - The Force Awakens - is very much real. The robot, named BB-8, took to the stage at Star Wars Celebration convention in Anaheim, California, where it literally ran rings around the retro droid on its spherical body. JJ Abrams, the film’s director, confirmed that a real robot was used during filming, but did not reveal how it works. Scroll down for video . The robot, called BB-8 (left) stars in the eagerly anticipated film Star Wars: The Force Awakens and took to the stage at Star Wars Celebration convention in Anaheim, California, where it literally ran rings around retro droid R2-D2 (pictured right) It’s a question that’s got Twitter talking, with a user named Jock tweeting: BB8? BBGREAT more like and Jimmy Wong in LA saying: ‘HOW DOES BB-8 WORK. It's so coooool.’ Joshua Harris, a teenager from Oxford said: ‘#BB8 is one of the few things in life that makes me want to understand engineering, while Video editor Ron Dot Org tweeted: ‘This is the part of the #StarWars event today that really blew my mind. #BB8 is not cgi. AT ALL’. BB-8’s body is a spherical ball that allows it to move in any direction, but it also has a completely free-moving head that doesn’t fall off, leaving applauding spectators wondering how it works. Speaking about filming the movie, JJ Abrams said: 'There were a lot of discussions about how having a CGI BB-8 could be so much easier for shooting. JJ Abrams, the film’s director, confirmed that a real robot was used during filming, instead of CGI, but did not reveal how the robot worked. Here, BB-8 the rolling droid BB-8 is spotted inside the Millennium Falcon, peeking around a corner . From today, Star Wars fans will be able to tweet using new emojis exclusive to the social network. Three emojiis have been introduced showing C3PO, a Storm trooper and a new droid. They have been rolled out in anticipation of the release of Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens. To tweet a Star Wars emoji, users must include hastags: #C3PO, #STORMTROOPER or #BB8 which will be transformed into little cartoons. ‘But we talked originally about it would be better for the film, for the actors, for the sets and the look of it if it were performed.’ He confirmed that BB-8 was ‘built and puppeteered’ in the film, but no strings were visible when the beeping, chirping droid rolled on stage, leading experts to speculate that it must be controlled by at least one remote control. The robot’s body is likely to be a large robotic ball, like a big version of the Sphero, Mashable’s Andrew Tarantola speculated. The toy by Orbotix is controlled by a smartphone app using a Bluetooth connection and allows users to make it go in any direction – much like the new droid. BB-8’s body is a spherical ball that allows it to move in any direction (pictured) but

Summary: BB-8 moved in all directions on stage at Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim . Director JJ Abrams said a real robot and not CGI was used in the film . Audience were mesmerised by the droid but it's a mystery how it works . Suggestions include giant robotic ball has another magnetic robot on top .


A high-level ministerial briefing exclusively obtained by Daily Mail Australia reveals an 'unprecedented' number of Australians could face the death penalty in China for drug smuggling. The revelation follows widespread public anger at Indonesia's executions of Australian nationals Myuran Sukumaran and Andrew Chan despite the pleas of the Federal government. It also comes as one of the few Australians known to be facing death row in China - Sydney man Peter Gardner - had his case pushed forward by six months. 'The number and seriousness of current cases of Australians potentially facing the death penalty in China is unprecedented,' said the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade document, which was dated December 2, 2014. Chinese authorities have said that eleven Australians were apprehended on suspected drug smuggling charges in Guangzhou alone in 2014 - a crime punishable by death. Scroll down for video . Australian citizen Ibrahim Jalloh (pictured) is reportedly facing drugs charges in Guangzhou province . Peter Gardner (left) and Kalynda Davis (right) were apprehended in Guangzhou. Davis was allowed to go free when charges were withdrawn but Gardner's case has been brought forward by six months . Jockey Anthony Roger Bannister (pictured) was charged with importing 3kg of methamphetamine . The exact number facing possible death sentences was redacted in the briefing, obtained under freedom of information laws, which added: 'None of those detained was born in China or is a former Chinese national. 'All were arrested for drug-related offences'. The document said consular assistance was provided to the Australians, including monitoring developments, prisoner welfare visits, and keeping in contact with family or nominated contacts. Other possible steps appeared to be redacted. Chinese prosecutors are reportedly seeking the death penalty against jockey Anthony Roger Bannister, 43, from Adelaide, who was charged with allegedly attempting to smuggle 3kg of methamphetamine from Guangzhou to Australia. Another citizen, Ibrahim Jalloh and his friend Bengali Sherrif were arrested at Guangzhou Airport in July over alleged drug crimes. Sherrif is reported to have been granted a suspended death sentence and Jalloh has not yet faced trial, according to the ABC. Other names have not been released. Do you know more? Daniel.Piotrowski@mailonline.com . Drug ring? Many of those facing death row were trying to import or export the drug 'ice' into or out of Guangzhou. Pictured above is Guangzhou International Airport . The confidential DFAT briefing concerned Gardner and his then-girlfriend, Penrith woman Kalynda Davis. Ms Davis was freed without charge following a traumatic month in a Chinese prison last year where she was forced to crop her hair short. The pair had met on Tinder. Ms Davis's friends realised something was wrong when she failed to appear as a bridesmaid at a friend's wedding in early November. The file also revealed the importance the government placed in not speaking publicly about her case at the time of her imprisonment. 'Given the timing of the investigative period and the possible death penalty involved,' DFAT asked that 'no information about this case be disclosed.' Authorities alleged Gardner tried to smuggle 30kg of methamphetamine out of China

Summary: Number and seriousness of Australians facing death penalty in China is 'unprecedented' That's according to a high-level ministerial briefing obtained by Daily Mail Australia under freedom of information laws . Many Australians arrested were caught in Guangzhou province - a production hub of the drug 'ice' As many as 11 were arrested in Guangzhou alone in 2014 . A prominent jockey and four other citizens are known to be potentially facing death row, including Kalynda Davis's former partner Peter Gardner . Ms Davis, 22, was freed without charge in December after a month spent in a Chinese prison . Do you know more? Daniel.Piotrowski@mailonline.com .


Arsenal players are choosing to employ relatives as their agents after FIFA washed their hands of attempts to regulate middle-men. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain’s father Mark, the former England international, is acting as his representative since Alex split from Impact Sports Management, although Raheem Sterling’s adviser Aidy Ward is also involved. Calum Chambers is on the books of Cassius Sports Management, whose head of talent ID is his stepfather Steve Moss. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is represented by his father, former England international Mark . Calum Chambers is on the books at Cassius Sports Management; his stepfather works for the company too . Danny Welbeck is looked after by his brothers Chris and Wayne . Danny Welbeck has long been looked after by his brothers Chris and Wayne through their business Markfield Sports Management, while Jack Wilshere’s father Andy remains the major influence on his son’s career, although he has signed up with Ten10 Talent. And Kieran Gibbs also has a soon-to-be family adviser in his mother Donna’s fiance Andy Harris. The trend at Arsenal has coincided with the agency business being thrown into turmoil by FIFA passing the buck to national associations to officiate on agents from April 1. Liverpool club secretary Stuart Hayton is leaving Anfield after just two seasons following 20 years at Wigan, having never settled into the role at the bigger club. Liverpool insist the popular Hayton’s departure ‘by mutual consent’ in May has nothing to do with the various big contract issues facing the club — Raheem Sterling’s stand-off over a new contract, Glen Johnson being on a free at the end of the season having signed for £18m and Jordan Henderson having only one year left on his deal. Fabio Capello and Terry Venables were two conspicuous names missing from the list of England managers who signed the letter prepared by PR agency Milltown backing FA chairman Greg Dyke’s campaign to boost home-grown talent. It is understood Russia manager Capello has yet to provide an answer, while Venables, who spends a lot of time at his hotel in Spain, could not be contacted. Fabio Capello is yet to respond to the letter backing Greg Dyke's campaign to boost home-grown talent . A number of Kent County Cricket Club fans are upset chairman George Kennedy is going to benefit personally from the conversion of an office building inside the club’s St Lawrence headquarters at Canterbury into a five-flat development. Kennedy has loaned Kent more than £1million to improve the ground. Chief executive Jamie Clifford said: ‘Without the chairman’s generosity, the future of this club would have been in serious jeopardy. He has taken the risk with the flats and any profit made will be nowhere near the amount he has put into Kent.’ Stew over Stu’s talks . There is plenty of sensitivity at Twickenham about relationships between chief executive Ian Ritchie and head coach Stuart Lancaster since Ritchie described England’s four successive Six Nations runners-up finishes as ‘unacceptable’. Sports Agenda has since highlighted a couple of upcoming Lancaster speaking engagements on his ‘winning’ formula, while a Sunday newspaper revealed

Summary: Arsenal players are choosing to employ their relatives as agents . FIFA have washed their hands of attempts to regulate middle-men . Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Calum Chambers, Jack Wilshere, Kieran Gibbs and Danny Welbeck are among those to use the policy . Liverpool club secretary Stuart Hayton is leaving Anfield after two seasons .


BREAKTHROUGH . BREAKTHROUGH by Jack Andraka with Matthew Lysiak . by Jack Andraka with Matthew Lysiak . (Scribe Books, £12.99) Jack Andraka is just 18, yet his newly-published memoir carries a blurb from Barack Obama. 'Spectacular stuff...' enthuses the President. Jack's short life has been packed with incident, but there was little in his background to suggest that he would become a teenage celebrity. He was born in 1997 and grew up in suburban Maryland with his elder brother, Luke, and parents, Jane, a nurse, and Steve, a civil engineer. The Andrakas encouraged their boys to think about how the world worked: school runs were fiercely competitive as Jack and Luke tried to solve science questions fired at them by their mother. At home, the basement became a laboratory, from where Luke's attempt to turn a microwave into a ray gun plunged the entire neighbourhood into darkness. At school, Jack won prizes for science projects, but was ostracised as a geek and viciously bullied when he came out as gay, aged 13. Then a close family friend, Uncle Ted, died of pancreatic cancer. Deeply depressed, Jack made an unsuccessful suicide attempt. That awful moment proved to be a turning-point. At summer camp, Jack met a sympathetic counsellor, and began to channel his grief into the science that would make him a star. Initially, he thought of trying to find a cure for pancreatic cancer - an ambitious task, given that he didn't know what a pancreas was. An online search revealed that survival rates are low, partly because the cancer is hard to detect. He had his project - but he needed access to a proper laboratory. He wrote 200 emails to university science departments - and 199 rejections later Dr Anirban Maitra, an expert in pancreatic cancer at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, offered Jack a corner of his lab to work in, under supervision. The supervision proved necessary as Jack contaminated samples by sneezing on them, and smashed a tray of test tubes by tripping over his shoelaces. But at last there came the moment that every research scientist longs for: his experiment worked. When his test for detecting pancreatic cancer won the top award at a prestigious international science competition in 2012, his wild celebrations at the awards ceremony went viral. He was interviewed by CNN and the BBC, and had to fit school assignments around invitations to meet world leaders and give TED talks. He was photographed with Bill and Hillary Clinton (who told him that politics was just like the film, Mean Girls). There was an audience with the Pope, he was hugged by Michelle Obama ('She was incredibly strong') and met the President who was, Jack notes, 'surprisingly well versed in science'. Of course, it wasn't all praise and presidential parties. There was anti-gay abuse, and scepticism from the scientific community. 'One major publication even dedicated a thousand words to why they were NOT going to celebrate my achievements,' Jack writes. Funny, brave and super-enthusiastic, with a healthy dose of adolescent egotism and some comic glimpses

Summary: Jack Andraka, now 18, became depressed when a close family friend died . Uncle Ted passed away from pancreatic cancer . Jack then developed a test for detecting pancreatic cancer . It won the top award at a prestigious international science competition . Breakthrough is an inspiring story for would-be scientists .

With many homes under the hammer this weekend, Australian capital cities can expect record-breaking profits on their properties at auctions across the country. A Pain and Gain report released by CoreLogic for the December quarter has revealed that home resales recording a gross loss were at an all time low with more properties making a decent profit. When being compared to their prior purchase price, only 8.6 percent of homes had recorded a loss and a shocking 32.3 percent had shown properties selling for more than double their original price. This home at 14 Ridge Street in South Perth was bought for 925,000 and rebuilt by the owners after knocking down the original home . It will go for auction between $3 and $4 million, with the current expected price being left as a surprise . The home is three storeys with garage parking for three cars and was built in 2007 . It boasts 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, library and fully fitted laundry, cellar, and home theatre .

This made the average profit made on each of the successful properties was $251,696 with the average loss on the unsuccessful homes being $65,435. This is pretty good for those looking to sell up in capital cities, but not so good for those seeking to buy. The report showed that Sydney recorded the lowest loss-making resales at just 2.4 percent over the quarter which is down from 3.5 percent in a year. Perth and Melbourne also saw extremely low resale losses of 5.5 percent and 5.6 percent respectively. However this change in the market has not yet caught on in regional areas.

The total vale of these profitable resales was over $17 billion three and a half times more than the total of the loss . Sydney recorded the lowest loss-making resales at just 2.4 percent which is down from 3.5 percent in a year . The typical home is now owned for over ten years before it is resold with Melbourne homes being held longest .


If you’re bored of crosswords and sick of Sudoku, an enigmatic new riddle game may be just the mental challenge you need. A mysterious app called None* gives users only one clue to get started and a keyboard to type their guesses. There are no images, music, animations, sound effects or hints to help users, or indication of what the purpose of the game is exactly. Scroll down for video . An intentionally mysterious app called None* gives users only one clue to get started and a keyboard to type their guesses. Examples of 'questions' are pictured above left and right . Available for iOS, Android and Windows Phone devices, the description of the game in stores reads: ‘No one really knows what none* game is about.’ The free app has a pitch black screen and a single clue written in white text, as well as showing a small keyboard. Upon starting the game, there is no indication what the goal of it is, how many levels there are, or even how users are supposed to solve some of the more obscure riddles. However, the app can be completed and has 50 levels, according to people bragging on the App Store that they have completed the None* app. The questions are relatively simple to start with, including basic maths questions and others that have clear answers, but then extend to name associations, before seemingly showing random statements and even coordinates. Available for iOS, Android and Windows Phone devices, the description of the game in stores reads: ‘No one really knows what none* game is about.’ It is intentionally more mysterious than a crossword (stock image) and does not have as descriptive clues or aids of hints or images to help players guess the answers . The app is available to download for iOS, Android and Windows Phone devices. Players are confronted with a black screen and a single clue written in white. They use the keyboard to enter their answer in order to progress to the next level. There are 50 levels in total in 'Episode One' and clues get progressively tougher. But upon playing the app, this is not known and it seems mysterious. The app's inventor, Dimitris Chassapakis, said that around 10 per cent of people who downloaded the app have completed the puzzle game. Clues include: 'The ultimate question of life, the universe and everything,' 'P + left step 1 + left step 7 + right step 1 + right step 1' and 'the answer is next. The next is answer'. Then there is a blank space beneath the clue to write the answer. Athens-based Dimitris Chassapakis, who created None*, told Business Insider that it’s his first text-based puzzle game for mobile. He said that there are 50 levels in None* but just 10 per cent of players have completed the game. ‘This is the first episode and if you solve all 50 levels you can subscribe for the release of Episode 2 — probably this summer,’ he added. Between 10,000 and 50,000 people have downloaded the free app

Summary: Enigmatic app is the brainchild of a developer in Athens, Greece . It has a black screen with fiendish clues and no hints or images at all . About 10% of players so far have completed the app's 50 levels . Equally mysterious episode two of None* is expected this summer .

Nick Clegg tonight set out the first of his 'red lines' for a second coalition, warning he will block any cut in education spending. The Liberal Democrats admitted today that their best hope is to end up with 30-something MPs after May 7, compared with the 57 elected in 2010. A senior party source said their best chance of holding the balance of power after the General Election was to finish 'in the 30s' if they are able to retain a number of closely-fought seats. Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg, making play dough at Tops Day Nursery, Corfe Mullen in Dorset, said he would demand education spending be protected from cuts as the price of propping up another coalition . Mr Clegg said the first of what he dubbed his 'Premier League policies' is a £5billion commitment to protect the entire education budget in real terms. But Mr Clegg is still determined to form a coalition with either the Conservatives or Labour and today vowed to set out which of the policies announced in his manifesto would be non-negotiable. The first of what he dubbed his 'Premier League policies', which the party would insist upon as a condition of propping up a government, is a £5billion commitment to protect the entire education budget in real terms. It would mean raising spending on education every year from 2018 onwards and at all stages 'from cradle to college', which goes further than the Tories or Labour have promised. Mr Clegg said: 'I can confirm a Liberal Democrat red line – a pre-condition for Government – is increasing spending on education. 'The Liberal Democrats will not allow our children and grandchildren to pay the price of this generation's mistakes. We believe above all else in spreading opportunity, in tearing down the barriers that stop people from reaching their potential. Nothing is more crucial to that than education.' The Lib Dem leader - who claimed just last week that he would not set out 'red lines' - said people felt 'confused' about the outcome of the election and he wanted to be 'clear and certain' about his party's intentions. The pledge would mean raising spending on education every year from 2018 onwards and at all stages 'from cradle to college', which goes further than the Tories or Labour have promised . The Liberal Democrats admitted today that their best hope is to end up with 30-something MPs after May 7, compared with the 57 elected in 2010 . Inviting criticism that the rest of his policies are all negotiable, he said he would fight for everything in the manifesto but that 'here are some Premier League policies and others which don't assume quite the same significance'. 'I will confirm the non-negotiables, the deal breakers, the things without which we would not enter into a coalition government and I'll do so fairly rapidly over the next few days', he said. Mr Clegg's policy is £5billion more expensive that what the Conservatives had planned – which is a freeze on schools spending for those aged 5 to 16

Summary: Clegg names the first of his 'Premier League policies' as price of support . Would mean raising spending on education every year from 2018 onwards . Lib Dems say it covers every stage of education 'from cradle to college' But insiders admit the party could lose as many as 20 seats on May 7 .


Married father-of-two Steven Christopher Costa, from Devon, plans to head to Iraq to fight against ISIS . A married father-of-two is set to leave his home in Devon to fight against ISIS in Iraq because jihadis 'need to be put down like rabid dogs'. Steven Christopher Costa, 31, plans to head out to the Middle East next month to join the war against the terrorists, leaving his wife and young children behind. Mr Costa, who spent six years in the Navy, will make the 4,000-mile trip after raising the cash to pay for flights. He said: 'When you have a rabid dog, you take it to the vet and put it down. 'Lots of people have said it's an admirable thing I am doing. I think it's a necessary thing.' When he arrives in Iraq, Mr Costa will join up with Kurdish fighters and other foreign ex-servicemen who have joined the battle against the barbaric Islamists. The former seaman was recruited through the Foreign Fighters Against ISIS Facebook group, who help ex-military personnel make the journey to ISIS-controlled territory. He has applied for a visa and plans to fly to northern Iraq via Jordan. Mr Costa said he will take his own life if he is ever captured by the terrorists because he does not want his children to see him being executed in a Jihadi John-style video. 'I will be saving a bullet or keeping a grenade strapped to my chest,' he said. 'If I get captured, I will pull the pin and take my life so there will be nothing for them to parade in any propaganda videos. 'I won't be burnt alive and I certainly won't be beheaded. I don't want my kids to see that in 10 years' time on the internet, because it will still be there. 'I am not going to lie, I am frightened. And anyone who says they are not is lying.' When he arrives in Iraq, Mr Costa will join up with Kurdish fighters and other foreign ex-servicemen who have joined the battle against the barbaric Islamists (file picture) Previous attempts by people to go out to fight ISIS have led to them being arrested for terror offences, but Mr Costa says this will not happen to him. He said: 'I'm going to join the Kurdish Peshmerga - not a terror group - who some European countries are funding and sending weapons to. 'There are a few groups of former soldiers out there so I'll be fine. I'm going as a volunteer, not a mercenary, so I don't think I'll be stopped. I'm not being paid.' The former military man added: 'Not seeing my kids is my biggest fear before death. 'People are going to have to give their lives to stop ISIS and if one of them has to be me, then so be it. Mr Costa (pictured) will leave his wife and children behind to fight against ISIS for three months . 'I am not doing it for any monetary gain and I am not doing it for fame. 'My wife

Poisoned by Botox? Mike and Susan Fortuna, of Shelburne are accusing Allergan of failing to warn of dangers, negligence and breach of the Vermont Consumer Fraud Act in treating their daughter, Mandy . The parents of a Vermont woman who died last year have sued Botox maker Allergan, saying off-label treatment of her spams caused by cerebral palsy with Botox contributed to her death. Mike and Susan Fortuna, of Shelburne, sued last week, accusing Allergan of failing to warn of dangers, negligence and breach of the Vermont Consumer Fraud Act in treating their 21-year-old daughter, Mandy Fortuna. In November, a Vermont jury awarded a New York family $6.75 million in their lawsuit against Allergan. Their lawyer said 7-year-old Joshua Drake developed epilepsy after getting Botox injections for his leg spasms caused by cerebral palsy. Joshua and Fortuna were treated by the same doctor, Dr. Scott Benjamin of Burlington, Vermont. The last set of injections occurred on September 5, 2014, approximately three weeks prior to her death, according to a press release put out last week by the Fortunas' attorneys. The Fortunas claim their daughter suffered an unexplained deterioration in her health after from Dr. Benjamin. 'She was continually gagging and choking, unable to clear her secretions,' reads the complaint. 'Her breathing was shallow and Mandy had trouble holding her head up. She began to experience seizures or seizure-like spells.' The cause of death was not entirely conclusive and was ruled as atypical pneumonia, a common complication associated with Botox overdoses, according to their suit . The family obtained records from the Burlington physician, which their attorney Ray Chester says they used to determine that Mandy had received an overdose of Botox just like Joshua Drake. 'It came about seven or eight weeks too late,' Mike Fortuna told the Burlington Free Press. 'Nonetheless, we were perplexed by the whole thing. We didn't understand what had happened to her, and now we know.' Off-label: Mandy Fortuna suffered from cerebral palsy and was treated for spasms using Botox off-label . Their suit claims Botox contacted Dr. Benjamin multiple times in the 2000s and urged him to use unsafe doses of Botox for pediatric uses. In 2011, Chester and his team received what was reported to be the largest single plaintiff personal injury verdict ever awarded in the State of Virginia. That verdict was $212 million and included a $200 million punitive damages award. The case later settled for a confidential amount. According to the release, Chester's other clients range from adults who wanted to remove a few wrinkles to young children with cerebral palsy who received high dose, off-label Botox to treat spasticity. The one common thread among almost all cases is that the treatments were off-label, meaning not approved by the FDA. Allergan plead guilty to criminal off-label promotion in 2010 and paid $600 million in fines. Allergan hasn't commented on the lawsuit. Dr. Bejamin has declined to comment on the pending litigation . Allergan hasn't commented on the lawsuit. Dr. Bejamin has declined to comment on the pending litigation, which claims he was

Summary: Susan and Mike Fortuna of Shelburne, Vermont say their daughter Mandy suffered an unexplained health deterioration soon after treatment . The parents learned their daughter had been treated by the same doctor who previously caused a 7-year-old boy to overdose, lawyers say . In that case, Botox maker Allergan was forced to pay the family nearly $7million .

Green party leader Natalie Bennett has been forced to distance herself from a bizarre online site run by her boyfriend. Jim Jepps used a blog called The Daily Maybe to defend 'rape fantasies', describe paedophiles as 'complex human beings' and question why teachers who have relationships with pupils are put on the sex offenders register. The couple met five years ago when Ms Bennett contacted him to correct something he had written about her, but now the Green party stresses they do not 'want to be associated' with his internet rants. Scroll down for video . Green party leader Natalie Bennett has distanced herself from the bizarre blog posts of her boyfriend Jim Jepps, insisting he is a 'private individual not involved in party politics' Ms Bennett's profile has soared in recent months, buoyed by rising poll ratings and Green party membership in England passing 60,000 for the first time. However, little is known about her private life, in contrast to the spouses of David Cameron, Ed Miliband and Nick Clegg who have been frequently seen on the campaign trail. Ms Bennett has been dating Mr Jepps for five years, after meeting online. He continued blogging on the Daily Maybe site until 2011. He quit the Socialist Workers Party in around 2003 and later joined the Greens. Bizarrely, he left the party in 2012, the year Ms Bennett replaced the more high-profile Caroline Lucas as Green leader. On his website, Mr Jepps appears to have deliberately courted controversy with a series of controversial blog posts, often related to sex, rape or paedophiles. In one post, seen by MailOnline, he joked that gay sex is not a sin 'unless you do it really well or claim it on expenses'. In 2007, he tackled a news story about demands for music books written by a paedophile to be withdrawn, because the recorder lessons were used to groom victims. Mr Jepps wrote: 'We can burn these books as a public statement against the author (who is in jail for his crimes) or try to understand that whatever monstrous acts individuals commit they are still complex human beings for all that. 'Good, evil, interesting and banal by turns - not devils who can taint everything they touch with evil.' He also dismissed a case in which a blogger was charged with obscenity for writing an article imagining the kidnap and murder of the pop group Girls Aloud. 'Either I'm hopelessly jaded or getting depraved and corrupted is a lot duller than I remember… Personally I didn't find it that shocking.' Mr Jepps quit the Green party in 2012, the same year Ms Bennett became leader after replacing Caroline Lucas (left) According to the Sunday Mirror another posting included: 'New Poll: Sex with pupils - good idea/bad idea? Personally I'm ambivalent and would appreciate any guidance. 'It seems to me the sex offenders register is a sledgehammer to crack a nut sometimes. When you have a teacher who kissed a 17-year-old placed on the same register as Gary Glitter it does make you wonder how useful the

Prince Andrew will not face court action in the US over claims he had sex with an under-age girl, after a Florida judge ruled her claims must be struck out. Virginia Roberts had hoped to join a lawsuit involving Andrew’s friend Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted paedophile and sex offender. But last night Judge Kenneth Marra ordered her claims that she was a ‘sex slave’ to Epstein and was forced to have sex with the Duke of York three times should be ‘struck from the record’. Scroll down for video . Virginia Roberts photographed with Prince Andrew in early 2001. Her claims she was forced to sleep with him have now been struck from the court record . Prince Andrew pictured leaving an Easter service at Windsor Castle on Sunday. The judge ruled the details of the accusations against him had no bearing on the reopening of the lawsuit against Epstein . The judge refused to make a statement regarding the veracity of Miss Roberts’s allegations, but issued an order that the ‘lurid’ and ‘unnecessary’ claims should not be involved in the Epstein case. ‘At this juncture in the proceedings, these lurid details are unnecessary,’ he wrote. ‘These unnecessary details shall be stricken.’ Prince Andrew is not mentioned by name in the ten-page ruling, made in the Palm Beach County court, Florida. But Judge Marra refers to the powerful people Miss Roberts was allegedly forced to have sex with by Epstein. Her claims of taking part in an orgy with the Duke and sleeping with him on two other occasions when she was 17 – below the age of consent in Florida – were described as ‘immaterial and impertinent’. In 17 words, the judge may have drawn a line under a controversy that has dogged Prince Andrew since January. Miss Roberts, referred to as ‘Jane Doe 3’ in court papers, and another woman were hoping to join two other alleged victims of Epstein in suing the U.S. government over a plea deal prosecutors struck with the financier. Jeffrey Epstein allegedly kept Virginia Roberts as a 'sex slave' But Judge Marra ruled yesterday that the Jane Doe 3 and 4 applications should be denied and it was therefore ‘unnecessary’ for them to be added as plaintiffs. When the court claim surfaced earlier this year, Prince Andrew and Buckingham Palace refused to go into any details regarding the accusations. However, in late January he briefly referred to the allegations at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, saying he wanted to ‘reiterate and reaffirm’ palace statements that insisted he never had any sexual contact or relationship with Miss Roberts. She has repeatedly claimed she had sex three times with Andrew when she was 17 – a claim he emphatically denies – and served papers on him via the British Embassy in Washington DC. But they were returned to sender. Her legal team’s bid to serve papers on the Duke came after courier FedEx returned a similar letter as it was ‘refused’ by the recipient at Buckingham Palace. The court papers lodged in Florida accused Andrew

Wellness warrior Belle Gibson sensationally admitted yesterday in a tell-all interview that she had made up her terminal brain cancer diagnosis. The 23-year-old founder of The Whole Pantry app came clean about her circumstances, telling the Australian Women's Weekly, 'none of it's true'. In the interview, Gibson asked her former fans and customers who purchased her app and books to see her as only 'human'. Leading psychologist Jo Lamble told Daily Mail Australia that this is a common reaction from people who are suffering from anti-social personality and narcissism disorders. Scroll down for video . Life-long struggle with the truth: Belle Gibson sensationally admitted that her terminal cancer was a lie in an interview with the Australian Women's Weekly . Lamble has not treated Gibson personally but said, in her professional opinion, she believes Gibson could be displaying signs of both a narcissism disorder and anti-social personality disorder. Lack of remorse is a common trait seen in those with anti-social personalities, Lamble says. 'A lack of remorse definitely fits in. It's like - you do what you need to do to get what you want,' she said. 'So if they need money they will commit fraudulent acts and steal, for example.' While other experts suggested to AWW that she could be suffering Munchhausen Syndrome, Lamble believes this isn't likely to be the case for Gibson. Changing times: 'In the past, a need for that love and attention may have been in less dangerous ways... but now technology has allowed it to get completely out of hand,' says Lamble . 'With Munchhausen, they normally don’t just lie, they go much further to be sick. 'While they definitely fake illness, they also self-harm and don’t normally do it for money purposes, they do it for attention,' she said. 'For example, they will go to lots of different doctors and shop around until someone believes their symptoms. They also might drink poison or swallow things or stab themselves, then ask, "what’s wrong with me?'' 'So I think in this particular case, she’s made up a story for fame, fortune, signing book deals - which suggests more narcissism and anti-socialism,' added Lamble. Another common trait shared by narcissists is that sufferers are often very charismatic. 'A lack or remorse definitely fits in... you do want you need to do to get what you want': Leading psychologist Jo Lamble says that Gibson's actions point to both a narcissism disorder and anti-social personality disorder . 'Narcissistic people will lie and build themselves up to be an amazing person full of grandiosity, wanting fame and fortune. They love to believe they are special and need all this admiration and attention,' the psychologist said. Lamble says this can often be a sign of neglect. This fits with Gibson's account of a troubled childhood - she was quoted in the Women's Weekly saying she had to bring herself up - doing the dishes and cooking her own food from a very young age, for example. According to Lamble, the common signs of someone showing an anti-social personality disorder are... 1. They

Summary: Wellness guru and app developer Belle Gibson lied about having cancer . 'No, none of it is true,' she told Australian Women's Weekly . 'I am still jumping between what I think I know and what is reality', she said . Leading psychologist believes Gibson could be suffering from both anti-social behaviour and narcissism disorders . Jo Lamble says the wide adoption of technology and social media mean that small lies can easily get out of hand .


More than five million Australian visas are expected to be issued to students, tourists and workers this year - the biggest amount since World War II. As many as 1.9 million foreigners travelling on short term visas are predicted to be spending time Down Under at any one time throughout this year. While a record 185,000 permanent migrants moved to Australia in 1969 - this figure is likely to be exceeded in 2015 as people are moving to the Lucky Country in droves. More than five million visas are expected to be issued to students, tourists and workers this year to come to Australia - the biggest amount since World War II . As many as 1.9 million foreigners travelling on short term visas are predicted to be spending time Down Under at any one time throughout this year . Secretary of the Immigration Department Michael Pezzullo revealed these figures at a speech at the Australian National University on Tuesday night, Fairfax Media reported. Mr Pezzullo said the challenges were on par to the high numbers in the aftermath of World War II. He said there were more east and southern Asians than Europeans moving to Australia in what has been a quick and significant shift as the number of Chinese-born Australians had tripled in the past 20 years. 'This is equivalent to a migrant-to-population share of almost 28 per cent,' Mr Pezzullo said. 'And the composition of that population is changing in ways that the proponents of 'White Australia' could never have imagined.' While a record 185,000 permanent migrants moved to Australia in 1969 - this figure is likely to be exceeded in 2015 as people are moving to the Lucky Country in droves . Mr Pezzullo pointed out that the nation's 'well-crafted and targeted' immigration program towards skilled migrants was a significant factor to the increase of people uprooting to Australia. 'Migrants enjoy high levels of economic participation as distinct from high levels of social exclusion and welfare-dependency, he said. 'Immigration has beneficial impacts in terms of growth in the demand for goods and services, increases in national income and living standards, improved labour participation, expansion of the economy's productive capacity and growth in household consumption and public revenues,' Mr Pezzullo said.

Summary: 1.9 million foreigners are likely to be in the country at any one time in 2015 . This includes students, tourists and workers on short term visas . While permanent migrants is likely to exceed record of 185,000 set in 1969 . The current visa figures compare to those in the aftermath of World War II .
