A man was left with horrific scars after his abusive wife poured a jug of scalding water over him after a rowed about household chores. Ken Gregory, 65, suffered first and second degree burns to 14% of his body after the assault at his £295,000 bungalow in Peterborough in March last year. A year on, pictures of his injuries show painful blistering stretching from his scalp to his lower back - and some of the scars will never fade. Scroll down for video . Ken Gregory was left horrifically scarred after his now ex-wife threw boiling water over him in March last year . Mr Gregory met Teresa Gilbertson (pictured together) through ballroom dancing, but they relationship became sour after five years of marriage . His ex-wife Teresa Gilbertson, 60, is awaiting sentencing after being convicted of grievous bodily harm with intent following the attack. Mr Gregory has decided to speak out because he believes it is important to challenge the stigma surrounding men who are victims of abuse. Retired BT manager Mr Gregory said: 'Being attacked by a woman is nothing to be ashamed of.' 'I had never imagined something like this would happen to me. 'As a man who is a bit older and who isn't exactly small, there is a perception that you can't be a victim of domestic violence. 'I was worried that people would assume that it was my fault and she was the victim - there is still a general perception that, as a strong man against a weaker female, you must have been the protagonist. A year on, the retired BT manager is speaking out to challenge the stigma surrounding men who are victims of abuse. Pictured, Mr Gregory with the jug his ex-wife used . Mr Gregory's ex-wife Teresa Gilbertson, 60, is awaiting sentencing after being convicted of grievous bodily harm with intent following the attack. Pictured, injuries to his back (left) and shoulder (right) 'But it should be the same message that they put out for women many years ago: don't be frightened, you don't have to put up with it.' The couple met through ballroom dancing following the death of Mr Gregory's first wife of more than 30 years, Maureen, seven years ago. But after five years of marriage, their relationship soured. On the day of the attack on March 23, Mr Gregory had been due to take flowers to his late wife's memorial to mark her birthday. Instead the couple rowed over finances and household chores. Eventually, they reached an apparently mutual decision to get a divorce and Gilbertson had offered to make a cup of tea. Mr Gregory, who has limited mobility due to arthritis, turned down the offer, but his wife left the room and returned with a jug of freshly boiled water. Peterborough Crown Court heard she told him 'there you go' after tipping it over his head without warning. It was the culmination of escalating verbal abuse. Three weeks earlier, Mr Gregory needed hospital treatment after Gilbertson threw a cup of tea over him while he slept,

Summary: Ken Gregory suffered first and second degree burns to 14% of his body . Pictures of his injuries show painful blistering from his scalp to lower back . Mr Gregory's ex-wife was found guilty of grievous bodily harm with intent .


When you want to buy something - a lunch, a shirt or a plane ticket - you can usually find the price of the item on a menu, tag or online listing. It's not as easy when it comes to health care. The truth is that undergoing a simple tonsillectomy can cost as little as $4,000 to as much as $14,000, depending on the city, according to new data compiled by Gawker. Using data from HealthSparq, the website charted eight common procedures and compared how much they cost in Washington, DC; New York City; Miami; Houston; Los Angeles and San Francisco. Random: New data shows the difference in price for common health care procedures in six cities across the U.S. Above, the cost of undergoing a tonsillectomy varies as much as $10,000 . Common procedure: The cost of undergoing an appendectomy hovers around $14,000 in most cities, but is a steal in Washington DC at $9,000 . The results will certainly have Houston residents driving to Los Angeles if they want to undergo a carpal tunnel procedure. A carpal tunnel release procedure at a surgical center in Houston costs upwards of $20,000 - while the price of the same procedure in the other cities hover between $5,000 and $8,000. Herniated disc decompression surgery costs $15,000 in Washington and more than three and a half times more in Houston and Los Angeles - more than $48,000. A simply tonsillectomy will run $3,500 in Washington - but costs $14,000 in San Francisco. The reason health care costs are not widely advertised stems from the fact that they vary based on who ends up paying - and insurers don't like revealing the negotiated final amount. However, there has been a recent push towards price transparency. Some states have started making databses of health care costs based on insurance claims and other insurance data. You can also research the costs of health care further on websites like HealthcareBlueBook.com. Ouch: Decompressing a herniated disc at a surgical center in Houston, Los Angeles, San Francisco and New York costs around the same as four years of college . Astronomical: Houston has an exceptionally high cost for a carpal tunnel release at a surgical center compared to the rest of the cities . Simple: It costs about twice the amount to undergo a outpatient carpal tunnel procedure in Miami than it does in New York City .

Summary: Charts show differences in price for common medical procedure in six U.S. cities . Prices for a procedure like a tonsillectomy can range between $4,000 and $14,000 .


'A bubbly, caring person': Lisa Orsi, who died in Singapore this morning after suffering extreme altitude sickness on a volcano trek in Indonesia . A young British physiotherapist has died after suffering extreme altitude sickness during a volcano trek in Indonesia. Lisa Orsi, 22, from Derry city in Northern Ireland, was pronounced dead in Singapore this morning, two weeks after trekking on a popular route up a volcano on East Java. Her parents Dennis and Sharon were by her bedside as she slipped away in the early hours following extensive transplant surgery at Singapore General Hospital. Nine of Miss Orsi's organs will go to patients in need of transplants. Her parents said: 'Lisa was a bubbly, caring person whose infectious joy for life endeared her to so many people. We take comfort in their prayers and well-wishes at this time. 'Even in this dark hour we can look to take solace from knowing that even in her death Lisa's generosity has brought new life to others and given them a second chance.' Irish-born Miss Orsi, who moved to Derry from Donegal aged five, was described as a fit, healthy young woman, who enjoyed athletics and Gaelic football. She collapsed in the shower and fell into a coma after trekking a popular tourist route up an East Java volcano last month. Medics in Indonesia and Singapore spent the past fortnight trying to save her life before turning their attention to using her organs for donation. The law in Singapore makes it compulsory for people who die suddenly to have their organs donated unless they are Muslim or have expressly wished otherwise. Recently qualified as a physio, Miss Orsi was half way through a two year contract at Bright Vision Hospital in Hougang. She had been playing Gaelic football with the Singapore Gaelic Lions in her first year in the city. In a statement to the Press Association, Ms Orsi's parents added: 'The medical team at Siloam Hospital, Surabaya, who initially treated Lisa and the staff at Singapore General Hospital have provided excellent medical care. They have treated Lisa with great compassion and we will be forever appreciative of their efforts.' 'We brought Lisa back to Singapore as it is a place that is so very dear to her heart. She has always spoken of it as a second home and we have been so grateful to receive a homecoming welcome from her Singapore brothers and sisters. 'Lisa has been very fortunate to be surrounded by friends both from her working life and her club-mates from the Singapore Gaelic Lions. Gaelic Football has been a childhood passion for Lisa and we are overwhelmed by all that her GAA family have done for her.' 'Lisa's generosity has brought new life to others': Nine of Miss Orsi's organs will go to patients in need of transplants after medics in Indonesia and Singapore spent two weeks trying to save her life .

Angel Di Maria had to be sent off by referee Michael Oliver for grabbing the official’s shirt after being correctly cautioned for simulation. The United player will be awaiting the reaction from the FA, who usually take a dim view of physical contact with officials. I hope there is not too strong a reaction as Di Maria’s touch was light and born of frustration rather than aggression. Angel di Maria was sent off following two bookings after pushing Premier League referee Michael Oliver . The Manchester United playmaker puts his hands on referee Oliver following his first yellow card for diving . Di Maria walks off the Old Trafford pitch following his red card as Manchester United were knocked out . As Oliver only gave a second yellow for the offence, the FA are unlikely to punish Di Maria further. Di Maria had been booked earlier for a dive. Oliver delivered a really impressive refereeing performance which belied his age (30). He was consistent, strong and impartial throughout. The first serious foul brought a very early yellow card for Hector Bellerin though later Oliver showed tolerance when Bellerin just clipped Ashley Young, who demanded a second yellow card which was unsporting and unnecessary. Arsenal frontman Danny Welbeck had his shirt pulled by Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo . There was a clear pull on Welbeck's shirt in the penalty area but Oliver decided against giving a penalty .

Summary: Angel di Maria was sent off after pulling at the shirt of Michael Oliver . The 30-year-old was correct to dismiss the Manchester United star . Oliver gave an impressive performance and stepped up in a big game .


Fewer families are taking holidays during term time in the wake of a government crackdown on absenteeism, new figures suggest. The number of days missed by holidaying pupils decreased by almost a third in the past year after a ban on taking children out of lessons for trips. Parents have been fined up to £1,000 and even taken to court since the new policy came into force in September 2013. Drop: Figures reveal just 3million school days were missed by pupils last year - down 1.4million on 2012-13 . Yesterday, Department for Education figures showed 3million days were missed for holidays in 2013-14, down from 4.4million in 2012-13. The latest figure represents a decrease of more than two fifths from 2009-10, when 5.3million days were missed. Government statisticians said the drop has been fuelled by a fall in the number of authorised breaks - trips approved by the school. There has been a slight rise in the number of unauthorised holidays - indicating that some parents may be deciding to take their child out of school without permission, and instead run the risk of a fine. The latest figures, for the last academic year, are the first to show the impact of strict new rules on pupil absence introduced by former education secretary Michael Gove. Under the changes, heads are now only able to grant leave in ‘exceptional circumstances’ and parents can be fined £60 per pupil for taking term time holidays without permission. The cost rises to £120 if it is not paid within 21 days. Fines: The drop is being credited on the new fines system, which sees parents landed with a £60 penalty if they take their children out of school for an 'unauthorised' absence . Those who fail to pay can face prosecution, with a maximum fine, if convicted, of £2,500 or a jail sentence of up to three months. The National Association of Head Teachers released guidance stating exceptions could be made for family funerals and religious events, but family holidays were unlikely to meet the criterion. Campaigners have said the rules impact the hardest on poorer families who cannot afford high travel costs during school breaks, and families with parents that work shifts on or rosters. Travel companies increase their prices significantly in peak seasons when there is more demand. School Reform Minister Nick Gibb said: ‘Every single lost day counts - which is why as part of our plan for education we have put teachers back in charge so they can clamp down on classroom absence. ‘Fewer school days are being lost than ever before thanks to our reforms - giving children the best possible chance to succeed.’

Summary: Three million days missed last year, say Department for Education figures . Number down from 4.4million in 2012-13, and 5.3million in 2009-10 . Drop comes after fine of £60 per pupil brought in for missing school . But campaigners say measures impact the hardest on poorer families .


Europa League broadcasters ITV have pulled off a coup by persuading the injured Everton and England defender Leighton Baines to be part of their panel for tonight's important tie between Roberto Martinez's men and Dynamo Kiev at Goodison Park. Baines has been ruled out the first leg because of a knock to his quad muscle and will join 1980s Everton legend Peter Reid for the live television coverage to see if his side can salvage some respect for the Premier League after a dismal European campaign for our leading clubs. Leighton Baines takes a free-kick for Everton against Swansea City earlier in the season . Manager Roberto Martinez oversees Everton training at Finch Farm on Wednesday . Everton may be the only English club who will end up qualifying for the quarter-finals of either European competition. Chelsea crashed out of the Champions League against Paris St Germain on Wednesday while both Arsenal and Manchester City have to overturn first-leg deficits when they travel to Monaco and Barcelona next week. Roberto Martinez's side are the only English survivors in the Europa League following exits for Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur in the last round and ITV have chosen to show the match from Goodison on their main channel ITV1 rather than ITV4 where most Europa games are screened. Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend will commentate with presenter Mark Pougatch – who recently replaced Adrian Chiles – joined by Baines and Reid. Baines, 30, rarely does interviews but is known to hold thoughtful and incisive views on football. A huge music fan, he disembarked from the plane that brought back England's players from last summer's World Cup clutching a guitar he had taken with him to South America. Baines with his guitar at the World Cup (left) and against Crystal Palace earlier this season . The left-back, who was wanted by Manchester United at the start of last season before he signed a new contract with Everton, has only played once since the end of January because of injury and received a knock to the quad muscle on his leg last month. He has returned to training though and may make his return in Sunday's Premier League game against Newcastle United. Everton have so far saved their most impressive performances for Europe and qualified for the knockout stages from a difficult group that included Wolfsburg, Lille and Krasnodar. Dynamo Kiev are managed by former Tottenham and West Ham forward Sergei Rebrov (above)

Theresa May yesterday unveiled a raft of controversial powers to drive Muslim extremists from British public life – including the closure of mosques which harbour fanatics. The Home Secretary said Britain had tolerated extremist views for too long and hardliners needed to understand the 'game is up' for anybody who rejects British values. Her wish-list included sending hit squads modelled on the Government's Troubled Families Programme into 'isolated' communities to teach English and encourage children to mix with youngsters from other backgrounds. Home Secretary Theresa May (above) will promise to drive out the 'significant' number of fanatics who have been able to infiltrate British establishments . As the Mail revealed yesterday, there will also be new civil orders to silence preachers of hate, a review of sharia courts and new rules making it easier to ban extremist groups. Closure orders for mosques or other premises hosting extremist meetings . Blacklist of people and bodies public sector should not engage with . All foreign religious workers in pastoral roles required to speak English . Orders making it unlawful to preach hate in public or on the internet . Banning orders for extremist groups that fall short of existing terrorist proscription thresholds . Migrants arriving on visas must declare they will respect British values . Independent review of operation of sharia courts . Ban on asylum for terror suspects . Translation services cut . Public spending on translation services will be cut to encourage all Muslims to speak English. It will be a requirement for religious workers with pastoral responsibilities to learn the language. Meanwhile, a new Extremism Analysis Unit is being established inside the Home Office to draw up a blacklist of individuals and organisations which the public sector should not engage with. Mrs May said the aim was to ensure 'nobody unwittingly lends legitimacy or credibility to extremists' and ensure ministers don't just speak to 'self-appointed and often unrepresentative community leaders'. Closure orders would be served on any premises owned or occupied by extremists or used to host extremist speakers – including mosques. She called for a new partnership to defeat the fanatics, saying: 'To those who do not want to join this new partnership, to those who choose consciously to reject our values and the basic principles of our society, the message is equally clear: the game is up. We will no longer tolerate your behaviour.' Mrs May told Islamist hardliners: 'The game is up. We will no longer tolerate your behaviour. We will expose your hateful beliefs for what they are' Mrs May is expected to set out priorities for a Tory government - including a review of Sharia courts and powers to stop preachers of hate like Anjem Choudary (pictured) from public speaking or using social media . Lord Prescott . Policy failures are partly to blame for Islamic extremism in Britain, John Prescott claimed yesterday. The Labour grandee, who has been recruited into the party's election campaign by Ed Miliband, said events in the Middle East could have radicalised him too. 'Any young Muslim would be affected by

Summary: Theresa May wants to drive out 'significant' number of fanatics in Britain . Under Tory manifesto plans, Home Secretary would ban hate preachers . Pledged to use new 'closure orders' to shut mosques used by fanatics . Also review Sharia courts amid fears they are used to oppress women . The Home Secretary told Islamist fanatics in British: 'The game is up'


It is known as one of the happiest countries in the world, but Vietnam's population is somewhat shy about smiling for the camera. As French photographer, Réhahn, was travelling through the South East Asian country, he observed that many people conceal their smile with their hand, as a mark of modesty or politeness. He decided that the shy gesture would make an interesting subject for to focus on and travelled through the country snapping portrait photos for a series he called Hidden Smiles. Scroll down for video . French photographer Rehah, 35, left behind his busy life in France to explore the happiest country in the world, Vietnam. He has been travelling round on a motorbike there since 2001 . He noticed that a lot of people cover their mouths when they smile, either out of shyness, or elegance, if there was a lack of teeth . He noticed the effect the smile has on the whole face, when the mouth is concealed from view. His portraits focus on the eyes and lines of the face caused by the happy emotion . Since giving up his hectic life in France, the photographer has spent three years in Hoi An, Vietnam, ranked the happiest country in the world, and says he has discovered their true meaning of happiness through his pictures. In particular, Réhahn was keen to highlight how the smile is translated throughout every inch of the face, even when the mouth is covered. Born in 1979 in Normandy, the photographer has enjoyed life travelling around Vietnam on his motorbike and has so far taken over 40,000 pictures. For Réhahn, a smile is more than mere muscle twitching and his Hidden Smiles project aims to celebrate the corners of the face etched by a lifetime of happy emotion. 'Vietnamese people are the most positive and optimistic people I've ever met in my life. It gives me a good energy everyday, just when I cross the small village where I live and meet many smiles. It's Feng Shui: only good energy!' he said. Looking past old age, or the wearing of poverty, the photographs reveal an energy and life behind the eyes of the individuals, through their concealed smiles. When asked why many subjects cover their mouths Rehahn said young girls do it out of embarrassment, and old women tend to do it out of elegance to cover their lack of teeth. 'I think a good photography is when you can capture the soul, read a story in the eyes. Capture emotion is not an easy thing, Time is the key! Spending time with people always gave me better photos!' he said. Rehahn states he has only travelled to a quarter of the country, despite being a permanent resident there since 2011. Of the many photographs he has taken, 145 have made it to his first photo-book 'Vietnam – Mosaic of Contrasts,' which aims to show Vietnam in a natural and spontaneous light. 'I tried to understand why people covered their mouth. When they cover the mouth, we focus on their eyes and

Summary: French photographer Rehahn has spent seven years travelling round Vietnam on his motorbike . He captured the 'happiest country in the world' through a project of their concealed smiles . Hidden Smiles aims to exhibit 100 smiles by the end of 2015 .


William Tallon was more than just the Queen Mother’s favourite servant. He rose from impoverished beginnings to become her confidant and close friend. As the first part of a remarkable new biography revealed last week, Tallon was also a predatory homosexual who breached Royal security by bringing young men back to Clarence House at night. And he made powerful enemies. Here, in the final extract of Backstairs Billy, we reveal that courtiers took their revenge by banishing him from the Queen Mother’s side, shamefully disregarding her wish that he should be allowed to live at Clarence House for the rest of his life. And whatever became of his meticulous diary, the ‘black book’ of life with the Royals? So close: Billy with the Queen Mother on her 88th birthday in 1988 (right). He cuts a lonely figure in 2003 (left), a year after her death . Within days of Billy Tallon’s death in November 2007, a small group of men were seen entering his flat in Kennington, South London. All Billy’s possessions were boxed up and put in storage. There is no proof that things went missing, but the speed with which events occurred shocked his friends, one of whom said: ‘It was all very odd. Would you expect your former employer to visit your house and go through your things? We don’t know for sure, but that’s what we think happened – the Royal household had sent a team to go through Billy’s possessions before they were sold...’ Billy Tallon would tell anyone who listened that the Queen Mother had promised him that his little gatehouse cottage at Clarence House would be his home for life. ‘I thought she had left instructions to that effect but I could hardly ask her to put it in writing to me,’ he said. ‘I suppose I was rather naive in thinking that a letter would survive if it meant everyone had to put up with me for a few more years. In some ways they were quite ruthless, you know.’ Rumours: Billy said he knew Princess Diana was having affairs while still married to Prince Charles . Some months after the Queen Mother’s death in March 2002, Billy received a short letter telling him that Gate Lodge had to be vacated. The deadline gave him little time, but he obediently packed his things and left. There was no leaving party, no letter of thanks, no formal goodbye. An official made sure he was out on time. Billy didn’t find his new life easy. His 51 years of service had given him no time to learn how to live in the evenings and at weekends. For years he had organised lunches and dinners for the Queen Mother, but he had never had to make his own meals. Now his life of privilege was over: he shambled along to the shops like any other elderly single man. He began to eat irregularly and sometimes not at all. He was also shocked at the cost of a good bottle of wine. Billy had developed a taste for

Summary: Queen Mother's royal courtier William Tallon was known as Backstairs Billy . Rose from impoverished beginnings to become her confidant and friend . But he also breached protocol and brought young men to Clarence House . Other courtiers took revenge by banishing him from Queen Mother's side . Also denied her request that he should be allowed to live at Clarence House for the rest of his life .


A brother has been praised by police for saving his sister's life after she was stabbed repeatedly by a jilted gamer who flew to the UK to attack her. Baby-faced Shane Coffey travelled from his home in Boston, Massachusetts to Farha Dowlut's house in Epsom, Surrey, after she ended their online relationship. The 20-year-old smashed through her bedroom window and began stabbing Miss Dowlut, 19, in her bed with a hunting knife which he had smuggled into his luggage through customs. Mohammad Dowlut, 22, (left) saved his sister's life after she was attacked by baby-faced Shane Coffey (right) But luckily, Miss Dowlut's brother Mohammad heard her anguished screams and ran to her rescue. The 22-year-old wrestled Coffey away from his sister, also sustaining several wounds in the process. Even as the intruder continued to lash out, Mr Dowlut kept on pulling the attacker away from the bed. He then hit Coffey three times around the head with a metal pole before he finally dropped the knife, saying 'stop, enough, I'm done.' This week, Mr Dowlut was honoured for his bravery at Surrey Police's annual Chief Constable's Commendation Ceremony held at Guildford Cathedral. Surrey Police said: 'Mohammed Dowlut tackled an armed offender who viciously attacked his sister in their home with a hunting knife. 'Mohammed sustained serious injuries in saving his sister's life. The offender was sentenced to life imprisonment for his attack.' The 20-year-old flew from the U.S to London Heathrow Airport (pictured) so he could carry out the frenzied attack on Farha Dowlut at her home in Epsom, Surrey . Coffey was jailed for life with a minimum term of eight-and-a-half years in November after pleading guilty at Guildford Crown Court to one count of attempted murder and another of grievous bodily harm. The court had heard how Coffey and Miss Dowlut had first started chatting when she was aged 14, having met through the online gaming community. The pair had regularly spoken online but had stopped chatting after Coffey remotely hacked into Miss Dowlut's computer and read her chat logs with other people. When they started talking again in November 2013, the pair discussed Coffey visiting Miss Dowlut at home. They exchanged Christmas gifts, which gave Coffey the family's address. The gamer even checked into a Premier Inn (pictured) near to her home before scoping out the area, prior to the attack. Miss Dowlut's brother suffered injuries during the incident . Coffey, who has been jailed for more than eight years, smuggled this hunting knife through customs . In March, after a big argument, Miss Dowlut told Coffey to 'get out of her life.' But Coffey then secretly booked a flight to the UK. He arrived in April last year, having smuggled a Schrade combat and hunting knife in through customs, along with cable ties, tape and gloves. He then scoped out Miss Dowlut's home after getting a taxi to the area. He then launched the frenzied attack. Following the sentencing last November, Temporary Detective Chief Inspector Antony Archibald said: 'This was an extremely frightening incident for the family, carried

Summary: Shane Coffey, 20, from Boston, U.S, flew to the UK to carry out the attack . He hid knife in his luggage before attacking Farha Dowlut, 19, in her room . Mohammad, 22, heard screams and wrestled Coffey off, suffering injuries . He was honoured for bravery at Surrey Police's annual awards ceremony .

The Bali Nine duo could have their case delayed for months, after The Indonesian Supreme Court has agreed to review the case of a Filipina drug courier scheduled to be shot at the same time. Indonesian courts have consistently said they will execute all 10 drug felons at the same time, while the review is expected to take months. The Supreme Court said a panel of judges would be appointed this week to review the case of Filipina domestic worker Mary Jane Fiesta Veloso, a process which can take up to three months, reports Sydney Morning Herald. Scroll down for video . The Bali Nine duo (pictured) could have their case delayed for months, after The Indonesian Supreme Court has agreed to review the case of a Filipina drug courier scheduled to be shot at the same time . The pair may be waiting months for their execution as the review of Filipina domestic worker Mary Jane Fiesta Veloso could take up to three months . Veloso was sentenced to death in 2010 for attempting to smuggle 2.6 kilograms of heroin from Malaysia to Yogyakarta. She maintains she was deceived and did not know the drugs were in her luggage. The family of Brazilian Rodrigo Gularte are appealing for his life to be spared on account of him being diagnosed with schizophrenia. Nine of the ten drug felons set to be executed together have now launched legal proceedings. It comes after Attorney-General spokesman Tony Spontana said all ten prisoners would face the firing squad simultaneously. 'We don't want one to have to wait for another's execution before his own. That will affect the convicts' psychological state,' he said. President Widodo (left) has adopted a hardline approach to drug smugglers . The Indonesian Governor-General has said the death row inmates will be executed 'simultaneously' Myuran Sukumaran, left, and Andrew Chan, right, will be put through an 'assimilation' process as they prepare to face the firing squad . Mr Prasetyo also claims the death row inmates will be put through an 'assimilation' process which he believes will help them mentally prepare for their death. 'They will be accompanied by religious figures until they're truly ready,' he said. The two men are currently being held in isolation cells where they are able talk to each other. Their interaction with other inmates is limited to one Nigerian who is also on death row. Prison authorities claim there's been no order to move Mr Chan and Mr Sukumaran from 'Death Island' even though the appeals process may be lengthy. Although the appeals process may be lengthy there have been no orders to transfer Mr Sukumaran and Mr Chan from the prison referred to as 'Death Island' President Widodo is adamant he will show no leniency to drug offenders caught on his shores . The pair's lawyers will return to Jakarta court on Thursday to challenge President Widodo's decision to deny clemency to all drug offenders. Their last appeal was adjourned until March 20 as the president's representative did not have the required legal documentation. Two weeks earlier,

Summary: The Supreme Court will review the case of Filipina cleaner Mary Jane . The Bali Nine duo's executions could be delayed by up to three months . The Indonesian government said all ten prisoners will be executed together . President Joko Widodo has refused to reduce the death sentence .


Angel Rangel is on course to complete 10 years at Swansea City after agreeing terms on a one-year contract extension at the Liberty Stadium taking him up to 2017.

A storm is due to blanket states in the south with snow, then head the the pummeled Northeast to smash all-time snowfall records. Meteorologists predict the downfall will strike Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas and Missouri through Wednesday. Predictions the majority of Kentucky as at risk from more than ten inches of snow, while Tennessee and surrounding states will get a lighter coating of between three and six. Coming storm: The storm is expected to hit the South first, then move towards the Atlantic coast . More of this? Tennessee is due to be hit by the snow, which follows an unusually white winter in the state. Above is five-year-old Nike Christian with a snow-blower in Knoxville . The system is then expected to sweep Northeast, pushing past Washington, D.C., and New York City before hitting Boston to potentially set a new snowfall record, according to AccuWeather. While less than six inches is expected in Massachusetts, the extra snow could be enough to push the city past its annual snowfall record of 107.6 inches. The total, according to local station WCVB, currently sits at 104.1 inches after a modest coating over the weekend. The current record was set in the winter of 1995-96. Higher! Boston's heaps of snow could be due to get even bigger thanks to new winter storms headed to the Northeast .

Earlier: Parts of the downfall could take the form of freezing rain or sleet as temperatures are not expected to be low . But while the storm could bring snow, it will not necessarily bring any cold. Temperatures in the area are not expected to dip far below freezing, meaning more southerly parts of the storm could drop rain or sleet instead. Winter weather warnings and advisories were published by the National Weather Service for more than 100million people Tuesday as the southern storm begins, and an earlier one develops over the Midwest. Brewing: In a satellite picture taken just after midnight Tuesday, a low pressure system leaves the New England coast - opening the way for more rain and snow later this week .

City has had 104.1 inches of snow this winter - and is close to new record . Just 3.5 inches more will break the all-time record set in winter 1995-6 .


The Conservatives have gained their most substantial poll lead since 2010 in the wake of the Budget, according to one poll. The latest Opinium survey for the Observer put the Tories up three points to 36 per cent, with Labour down two to 33, Ukip on 14, the Lib Dems on 7 and the Greens on 6. David Cameron and George Osborne have a considerable lead on handling the economy, preferred by 42 per cent of voters, compared with the 21 per cent who back Ed Miliband and Ed Balls. Scroll down for video . Chancellor George Osborne's budget appears to have given the Conservatives a boost in the latest poll . Opinium's Adam Drummond said: 'It certainly looks like George Osborne's Budget and the positive Press reaction have given the Conservatives a boost. 'More impressively – for a man who was memorably booed at the Paralympics – George Osborne appears to have achieved a remarkable turnaround in public opinion. 'This is no doubt helped by the fact that more voters think the economy is doing well than at any point in our tracking for this parliament.' Mr Drummond added: 'Along with David Cameron's strong approval ratings the economy, and by extension George Osborne's handling of it, is overwhelmingly the Tories' strongest asset going into the election.' However, a Survation poll carried out for The Mail on Sunday found no evidence of a 'Budget bounce', and showed Labour ahead on 34 points, the Tories on 30, Ukip on 17 and the Lib Dems on 10 per cent. According to the ICM/Telegraph Wisdom Index poll, the Tories are on course to achieve 32 per cent of the vote, one point ahead of Labour's 31 per cent. The poll, which asks participants to predict the outcome of the election rather than how they intend to vote, confirmed that Ukip is losing ground and is forecast to receive 13 per cent of the vote.

Summary: The Conservatives have gained their most substantial lead since 2010 . Latest Opinium survey has put the Tories up three points to 36 per cent . George Osborne's Budget is believed to be responsible for the boost . Britain must choose between a £56billion-a-year hit or continuing to offer open borders to European migrants if it chooses to leave the EU, a think-tank has warned. Open Europe said an exit would lead to a dent in national income of 2.23 per cent by 2030, with export tariffs of up to 10 per cent. The only way to avoid this would be a free trade deal, allowing free movement of workers.


Colin and Karen McArthur are facing a £500 damages claim for discrimination after refusing to bake a cake supporting gay marriage . A court ruling over a Christian bakery which refused to make a pro-gay marriage cake could lead to Muslim printers being forced to reproduce cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed, it has been claimed. Colin and Karen McArthur, owners of Ashers Baking Company, in Northern Ireland, are facing a discrimination claim after they refused to bake a cake featuring Sesame Street characters Bert and Ernie under the slogan 'support gay marriage.' But now a leading lawyer has warned that if the case is successful it could set a dangerous legal precedent and undermine freedom of conscience. Aidan O'Neill QC said the case could mean atheist web designers being forced to build a website saying God created the world in six days, or lesbian t-shirt makers being compelled to print shirts saying gay marriage is an 'abomination'. Mr O'Neill posed the hypothetical scenarios in a legal opinion penned ahead of a hearing at Belfast County Court later this month. The case began in May last year after LGBT activist Gareth Lee placed an order for a novelty cake featuring Sesame Street characters Bert and Ernie. The design called for the puppets, who are often likened to a gay married couple, arm in arm under the slogan 'support gay marriage'. While the bakery initially took the order and a deposit, Mr Lee was later told they would be unable to comply on religious grounds, and he was refunded his money. Aidan O'Neill QC, a prominent human rights lawyer, has said the case could set a dangerous precedent that could lead to Muslim printers being forced to reproduce Mohammed cartoons (pictured, the cake design) Despite being able to find another baker who completed his request on time and at no extra cost, Mr Lee argues that he has been discriminated against. He is now seeking £500 in damages in a case which has the backing of the Equality Commission for Northern Ireland. Mr O'Neill has published his legal opinion ahead of the hearing, saying that Mr and Mrs McArthur are 'committed Christians', and that their beliefs should also be protected by discrimination laws. He argues that, by being forced to make the cake the couple would be forced to promote a view they do not hold, which goes against their right to freedom of expression. Mr O'Neill argues that Mr and Mrs McArthur are 'committed Christians' and that their right to freedom of expression is also protected under human rights laws (pictured, the couple's bakery) He added: 'This freedom not to be forced or required to express support for a particular opinion or political position was, indeed, the very one which Sir Thomas More strove to uphold in declining to sign the Act of Supremacy declaring Henry VIII to be the Supreme Head of the Church of England.' Colin Hart, director of the Christian Institute which commissioned Mr O'Neill, said: 'The strength and clarity of the advice from Mr O’Neill, who has a national

Last week he was the face of Comic Relief, fronting the annual fundraising telethon watched by millions that raised £1billion for good causes. But now the leftwing firebrand Russell Brand has launched an astonishing attack on the very same charity, claiming he felt 'compromised' by accepting the gig.

Brand, 39, even claimed he felt 'compromised by accepting the job hosting last week's Red Nose Day fundraising telethon which was watched by 8.1 million people and helped Comic Relief breaking the £1 billion barrier . 'Those were the questions I was asking myself as I walked out confidently onto the Palladium stage. And the answer is, 'No, not really'.' He then appeared to launch a scathing attack on British charities, claiming they were 'part of the problem'. The comedian had enraged some viewers on Red Nose day when he joked about sharing syringes. During the charity telethon, Brand said: 'I'm in the unfortunate position of having to ask you to donate money to buy syringes, literally the exact opposite of how I spend most of my time, and the previous two decades of my life,' he said. 'Fighting every instinct of my being. 'Don't make 'em not work again, that's terrible. I'll share. Sharing is caring. Although do watch out for infectious blood diseases.' Met with nervous laughs from the audience he went onto compare the distasteful joke to the controversy involving Jeremy Clarkson;s alleged use of the 'n-word'. The comedian and self-styled revolutionary said: 'Ultimately taking responsibility away from the centralised powers of created government, corporations and alleviating that stress and tensions by placing the burden once more on ordinary people. 'Is charity part of the problem?' Despite his bizarre rant, Brand admitted those behind 'Comic Relief had 'good intentions'. His comments are made even stranger by the fact that vegetarian Brand has been an open supporter of several charities including Amnesty International, David Lynch Foundation, Hillsborough Family Support Group and PETA. He is also the ambassador for The Recovery Group UK, a supportive body for addiction, and has joined protests against austerity cuts. Dr Karl Wilding, director of public policy at the National Council for Voluntary Organisations, said there had never been a clear answer to where the responsibility lay between state and charities. Just two days after the Comic Relief gig, and asked an audience at his show at London's Proud Archivist (pictured) if charity was 'part of the problem?' The comedian and self-styled revolutionary has been an open supporter of several charities and has joined protests against austerity cuts including Occupy London last October (pictured) 'It's not clear what Mr Brand's proposed solution is. Mr Brand has, in his own particular way, highlighted an age-old philosophical debate about where the boundaries of the state's responsibility should lie, which has

David Cameron's kitchen counter admission that he will not run for a third term as Prime Minister has raised more questions than answers. But before we get to the nitty gritty of who will take over in 2020 - should Mr Cameron be re-elected in May - there is a far more pressing question to answer: Is his kitchen better than those of his political competitors? Ed Miliband was the first to welcome cameras into his kitchen, and since then Nicola Sturgeon and the PM have both invited TV crews to snoop around the pantries of power. Scroll down to vote in our poll . David Cameron's kitchen at his Oxfordshire home is bright and airy, with plenty of room to prepare meals . Ed Miliband's 'functional kitchenette' seems dingy and less homely in comparison to the Prime Minister's . Equipped with a hob, two ovens and a sink, the Miliband's second kitchen is said to be where they make 'tea and quick snacks' Miliband, posing for a cup of tea with his wife Justine, lived to regret his photoshoot after it emerged that it was taken in the smaller of his two kitchens. The Labour leader insisted he preferred his 'functional kitchenette' - complete with a hob, two ovens and a sink - while a family friend revealed it was mainly used for 'tea and quick snacks'. The bland room, painted white with a grey floor, seems cold and rather dingy compared to the kitchens at the Prime Minister's two homes. While many were listening intently to Mr Cameron's revelation that he will not run for Britain's highest office come 2020, others were busy taking note of his family-sized kitchen at his Oxfordshire home. His practical kitchen includes a large worktop, which the Prime Minister used to chop up vegetables with BBC deputy political editor James Landale, as well as mod cons such as a blender and an ice-dispensing fridge-freezer. Showing the Tory leader's sense of humour, some viewers of his bombshell interview may have spotted a red 'Calm Down Dear' chopping board on the windowsill - a reference to when he landed himself in hot water by using the remark on Labour's Angela Eagle in the Commons. David Cameron was pictured cutting up tomatoes in his kitchen, while another red chopping board with the phrase 'Calm Down Dear' can just about be seen in the windowsill .

Wales will have to wait to lay their hands on the RBS Six Nations trophy, if they claim the title on Saturday - as the silverware will be elsewhere. Organisers of the championship have been presented with a difficult logistical problem, by the unusual fact that three teams are in the hunt to finish top of the pile, going into the final weekend. There are two of the new tournament trophies, and they will be stationed at Murrayfield and Twickenham.

England lead the table on points difference and Ireland are close behind them, with third-placed Wales requiring an emphatic victory over Italy at Rome's Stadio Olimpico to snatch the title. On that basis, a decision has been made to place the trophies in Edinburgh and London. In the event of an English triumph, captain Chris Robshaw will raise a trophy at HQ, in front of the home crowd. If the Irish retain their title, Paul O'Connell and Co will be presented with a trophy in the Scottish capital, although it is likely to be a low-key ceremony at a post-match function. England skipper Chris Robshaw could get his hands on the Six Nations trophy after lifting the Calcutta Cup . Ireland captain Paul O'Conell (centre) will look to lead his country to victory against Scotland this weekend . However, if Wales surge past their rivals to seize the prize, they will travel home to Cardiff and arrangements will be made for a trophy presentation on either Sunday or Monday.

There will be trophies at England vs France and Scotland vs Ireland . Wales will arrange a trophy presentation in Cardiff on Sunday or Monday .


Husband-and-wife meth users disarmed a Colorado wildlife officer and a sheriff's deputy then forced them to their knees along a desolate mountain highway before the husband was killed in a struggle, police reports released Thursday show. The man had handcuffed the deputy and held both officers at gunpoint with their own weapons before the wildlife officer overpowered him, took back his gun and shot him to death Monday near the small town of Dinosaur in northwestern Colorado, about 10 miles from the Utah border. Neither officer was injured during the encounter that began after they found the couple's abandoned Ford Explorer on the side of the road. Outlaws: Georgie Hand, 43, faces charges of attempted first degree murder, second degree kidnapping, aggravated robbery among other charges. Her husband, James Damon, 46, was shot and killed by police . Georgie Hand, 43, faces charges including attempted first-degree murder, kidnapping, aggravated robbery and disarming a peace officer. Her husband, James Damon, 46, died at the scene. The police reports provide new details about the harrowing struggle. After finding the SUV, wildlife officer Nathan Martinez followed a set of footsteps to the couple, who were sitting on a hillside. Damon aimed a handgun at Martinez and ordered him to keep his hands up as Hand pulled the officer's weapon from his holster, the reports state. They forced Martinez to sit down and toss his radio onto the ground. Damon asked if he had a wife and kids, finally saying, ''How do we get out of this, how does everybody walk away alive?'' Hand told investigators, according to the reports. Pointing Martinez's own gun at him, the couple then led him down the hill toward Moffat County Deputy Bhrent Shock. Struggle: A Colorado sheriff's deputy and a state wildlife officer were held hostage by a husband and wife before a struggle erupted and the man was fatally shot. The officers have been suspended . Hand told investigators her husband pointed his gun at Shock's face and ordered him to the ground, where Damon stripped him of his gun, radio and stun gun before handcuffing his right hand to his duty belt. Damon then pressed the gun into the back of the deputy's head. Martinez threw the keys to his vehicle toward Damon and told the pair they could take it and go, according to the reports. Hand walked away and Martinez told investigators that Damon ordered the officers to their knees near the Ford. Martinez could see the deputy's handgun in one of Damon's hands and his own weapon in the other. 'At this point, Officer Martinez knew they were going to die, but he wasn't going to die without a fight,' the police report says. He 'made the decision to disarm Damon and get his own handgun back.' Some details of the struggle were hazy. Martinez told investigators he didn't remember at what point the gun fired, but that it malfunctioned before he was finally able to fire a shot into Damon's back. The officers then arrested Hand, who was still holding a handgun. A

If you've waited until the last minute to book a holiday over Easter weekend, eurozone sunspots are offering plenty of great getaway bargains this spring, a new study suggests. Thanks to a strong pound, the Algarve in Portugal is the cheapest beach resort for a family break, according to a Post Office Travel Money report. Those who aren't sold on Portugal can find similar bargains in the Spanish Costas, Tenerife and Cyprus. Scroll down for video . The Algarve region in Portugal offers the best getaway bargain for the long Easter weekend, a study found . In the Algarve, the cost of meals, drinks and ice creams has dropped 20 per cent over the past year following the pound's rise against the euro. A meal including drinks will cost a family of four just £29.87, which is almost £7 less than last year. The story is similar in the other eurozone resorts, with prices in the Costas almost as cheap as the Algarve following a 15 per cent drop from 2014. Although slightly more expensive, Tenerife and Cyprus also offer tourists exceptional bang for their buck, the study said. Perhaps most important for holidaymakers, the Canary Islands and Cyprus offer more guaranteed spring sunshine than their bargain counterparts. Towns like Albufeira, Portugal (pictured) offer savings of 20 per cent from last year, the study said . In the Spanish Costas, like Costa Blanca (pictured), prices are almost as low as Portugal's Algarve region . Andrew Brown of Post Office Travel Money said in a statement: 'Although holidaymakers will get far more travel cash for their pounds in the eurozone, prices vary significantly between resorts, so the best advice is for canny travellers to cherry pick and book a resort where prices are cheapest.' 'It will be hard to beat Portugal and Spain but, as the weather warms up, Greece is shaping up to be great value too. 'Resorts in Italy and France are more expensive but the good news is that there are big savings for those who want to visit Sorrento or Nice.' Cyprus, while more expensive than Portugal or Spain, does still offer substantial savings - and lots of sunshine . Both Cyprus and Tenerife (pictured) boast the most guaranteed spring sunshine among the eurozone . But Britons looking to save would be wise to stay away from the US, especially in light of a poor exchange rate. For those truly eager to head across the pond, the best value can be found in the family-favourite destination of Orlando, Florida, but prices are still far cheaper on this side of the Atlantic. In Orlando, prices for the six family items surveyed by the Post Office cost twice as much as the Algarve - £68.39 in the home of Walt Disney World compared with £34.31 in the Portuguese coastal region.

Summary: Eurozone sunspots offer plenty of bargain holiday prices this Easter break . For the best value, head to the Algarve in Portugal or the Spanish Costas . Tenerife in the Canary Islands and Cyprus also offer last-minute savings .


A same-sex couple in Ohio were left flabbergasted when a local videographer refused to film their wedding citing religious reasons. Jenn Moffitt and her partner Jerra Kincely had sent an email to video production business Next Door Stories in Bexley, about filming their upcoming wedding. 'Unfortunately at this time I do not offer services for same-sex weddings,' replied owner Courtney Schmackers. Jenn Moffitt and Jerra Kincely contacts Next Door Stories in Bexley, Ohio, last month but owner Courtney Schackers replied that she doesn't do same-sex weddings for religious reasons . Courtney Schmackers has refused to comment publicly on the issue but posted her version of events on Facebook and said: 'I made a business decision based on my spiritual beliefs and the biblical definition of a marriage because I thought I had a right to that' 'I couldn't believe it,' Moffitt told CNN. 'It is a small business, and I thought this was a tight knit community. We wanted to support local commerce and to get that kind of response was astounding.' Schmackers has refused to comment publicly on the issue but posted her version of events on Facebook. 'I made a business decision based on my spiritual beliefs and the biblical definition of a marriage because I thought I had a right to that. Unfortunately I gave the wrong answer to the wrong person, who decided to make a private issue into a public platform,' she wrote. Angered by their treatment, the couple filed a complaint against the business with the Bexley Area Chamber of Commerce. In a statement, Bexley Mayor Ben Kessler said: 'Understandably, the community is concerned about a recent internet post regarding a query to a Bexley based business, in which the private business in question has reportedly denied a service based on sexual orientation. 'The City is concerned as well. We are proud of our community's welcoming environment and encourage mutual respect and inclusivity. Jerra Kincely shared both the reply from Schmackers and the videographer's explanation for refusing to film the couple's upcoming wedding . 'Bexley, Ohio is a community that embraces diversity and welcomes businesses, families and individuals of ALL sexual orientation, race, religion, age, nationality, ethnicity, disabilities, socio-economic levels, etc. As an employer and a provider of services to our residents, we extend that same openness and inclusivity.' The city is currently one of the municipalities in Ohio that doesn't prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation. Moffitt hopes the attention from officials will lead to legislation that protects Ohio's LGBT community. 'The outpouring from strangers has been absolutely amazing,' she said. Ohio is one of 13 states that currently does not allow same-sex marriage. The U.S. Supreme Court is scheduled to make a decision on whether the state's same-sex marriage ban is constitutional come spring.

An American saga of redemption and recovery unfolded in dramatic style at the WGC-Cadillac Championship at Doral on Sunday. Wearing red was JB Holmes, who has recovered so hearteningly from two bouts of gruelling brain surgery four years ago. Wearing blue was Dustin Johnson, the party boy who took a six-month leave of absence to mend his wild ways. In the end it was the man hell-bent on his redemptive mission who came out on top as Johnson closed with a final round 69 to win by one from Holmes, who had begun the final round with a five shot lead. Dustin Johnson (right) celebrates with his caddie Austin Johnson on the eighteenth hole at Doral . Johnson proudly holds the WGC-Cadillac Championship trophy following his victory on Sunday . 'It means everything to win again,' said Johnson, who admitted his break was due to issues with alcohol and was competing in just his fifth event on his return. 'It has been a tough road but a lot of good has come out of it and I feel great now. This has to be the best win of my career.' Johnson has long had a reputation as one of America's most gifted talents but was in danger of throwing it all away. Now he looks a reformed character. The latest world rankings out on Monday are likely to show him up to 6th and he' s quite capable of giving Rory McIlroy a run for his money at the top. Masters champion Bubba Watson led briefly but paid for a bad stretch of three bogeys in four holes from the 11th and finished third. Johnson went the other way, playing his last 11 holes so artfully that he completed the sequence in a telling three under par. It was hard not to feel sorry for Holmes. He had opened the tournament with a 62 that was so good it might well stand as the round of the year. But he blew his chances with a terrible start that saw his five shot lead dwindle to nothing before the first 90 minutes of play was completed. Johnson celebrates his birdie on the 15th hole during the final round of action on Sunday . As for McIlroy, his troubles with the plethora of water hazards continued right to the end, as he put not only his drive on the 18th into the water, but his third shot as well. Before the start of his final round, Donald Trump, preposterous owner of this overrated venue, had presented McIlroy with the three iron he had tossed infamously into the water on Friday, after it was retrieved by a scuba diver. McIlroy took it out of his bag once on Sunday - to play that third shot at the last. Thanks a lot, Donald, he must have been thinking. McIlroy shaped up to throw the offending implement into the water once more, but this time kept hold of it. It was a moment of light relief at the end of a seriously trying week for the world

Summary: Dustin Johnson closed with a final round 69 to claim the title . Bubba Watson led briefly but paid for a bad stretch of three bogeys . Rory McIlroy signed with a 71 but still finished in the top 10 . England's Danny Willett shot 68 to finish tied 12th .


Jordan Spieth won his second PGA Tour title after claiming the Valspar Championship in a play-off with Patrick Reed and Sean O'Hair. The 21-year-old's first tour success came in the 2013 John Deere classic, also on play-off, and he kept his nerve on the third extra hole to put some wind in his sails heading into Masters season. Spieth was just two under for the day at Florida's Innisbrook Resort, compared to Reed's five-under 66 and O'Hair's four-under 67, but after all three made successive pars in the play-off he made the decisive birdie at the par-three 17th.

Photographs of rainbow lorikeets who usually feed on seeds eating meat has puzzled bird experts. A series of pictures snapped at a Elimbah home - north of Brisbane - owned by a man only known as Bill shows the Australian icons feasting on mince, the ABC reported. Griffith University's Darryl Jones has been studying bird for about 20 years, taking a particular interest in bird feeding, and says he has never seen a phenomena like this before. This photo of lorikeets eating mince meat was snapped in Elimbah - north of Brisbane in Queensland . 'I've not ever heard of lorikeets, who are seed eating birds, eat meats,' he told Daily Mail Australia. 'What on earth are lorikeets eating meats for? 'It's not unusual for animals to eat bad food, humans do that every single day - we eat fat and sugars. 'I can't imagine it could be good for them. I don't recommend people feeding them meat.' Professor Jones shed some light on why he thought lorikeets had taken a carnivorous turn. He said they must have acquired a taste for proteins when people put out food for other birds. Griffith University Professor Darryl Jones has expressed shock at seeing these seed-eating birds chow down on meat . 'Although you really shouldn't feed birds, there are a huge number of people who do anyway,' Prof Jones told Daily Mail Australia. 'Magpies, butcher birds and kookaburras are meat eating birds and people put out chopped up sausage and ham for them.' Since expressing his views on the photos, Prof Jones said he had been inundated by emails from people claiming it was more common than he had thought. Lorikeets are normally birds that favour a diet of seeds. Prof Jones does not recommend feeding them meat . 'I've had 188 emails coming in, saying it happens... so it's not as rare as what I was thinking,' he said. Wildlife carer Fran Sanders - who has been taking in animals for 25 years in Brisbane - told the ABC she had also never seen this kind of behaviour from lorikeets. 'I'm absolutely amazed and horrified,' she said. 'I've never heard any of them [people she had helped] talk about lorikeets coming down and eating mince.'

Summary: Pictures show rainbow lorikeets eating meat near Brisbane, Queensland . Lorikeets are normally seed-eating birds and this has surprised experts . Griffith University's Darryl Jones said he did not think it was good for them . They might have acquired taste for it after seeing meat-eating birds feeding .


A deadly Al Qaeda-linked terror attack on a Syrian regime intelligence headquarters yesterday was so massive it measured 2.3 on the Richter scale and registered as an earthquake. At least 20 regime security force members and 14 rebels were killed in the west of Aleppo - the largest city in Syria and the frontline in battles between the Assad regime, the Islamic State, Western-backed rebel groups and the Al Qaeda-affiliated Nusra Front. The latter group are believed to have carried out yesterday's attack targeting air force intelligence offices, in which they used a tunnel to detonate bombs, creating an explosion so huge that the European Mediterranean Seismological Centre mistook it for an earthquake.

Watching the destruction: Members of Syrian opposition forces are seen hiding behind rubble after they blow up the tunnel beneath the Syrian Air Intelligence Directorate's Aleppo branch . Yesterday's attack came just days after the opposition rejected a UN ceasefire plan for the city and as President Bashar al-Assad insisted he continues to enjoy the support of the Syrian people despite nearly four years of war and international pressure on his regime. 'The goal was to storm the building and to control it, but they failed,' Rami Abdel Rahman, the director of UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitoring group . Six civilians were also killed in separate rebel shelling of regime-controlled areas, he said. The attack began with a huge blast from explosives in a tunnel near the intelligence building, the Observatory and a Syrian military source said. 'Gunmen blew up a tunnel that they dug (into the regime-controlled sector) and then attacked the area surrounding the air force intelligence headquarters,' the military source said. Journalists in eastern Aleppo said the blast was heard across the city. It later emerged that the explosion was so huge that it measured 2.3 on the Richter scale and was registered as an earthquake by the European Mediterranean Seismological Centre.

The assault was repelled with the help of regime air strikes on rebel positions and the clashes eventually subsided. 'Dozens of (rebel)

Meanwhile, De Bruyne's Wolfsburg team-mate Marcel Schafer has urged the 23-year-old to stay for at least another season. He told reporters: 'I think that our chances [of keeping De Bruyne] are really good. He has already experienced not getting so much time on the field at Chelsea, a top club in Europe. Jose Mourinho deemed De Bruyne surplus to requirements at Stamford Bridge last year . 'And that is why I think the best thing for him would be to stay for minimum one more year at Wolfsburg. Next year he could play Champions League here and win titles with us. 'If you want to win titles you need extraordinary players. And you really have to say that Kevin de Bruyne is at the moment the best player in the Bundesliga not only because of his stats. You can see that in every single game. And we're really, really happy to have him and to keep him until next season or maybe a little bit longer.'

First-time parents Kate and David Ogg were heartbroken when they were told one of their twins - born two minutes apart at just 26 weeks - had stopped breathing and had just moments to live. Thinking it was the only time they would have with the tiny boy they had already decided to name Jamie, Kate asked to be able to hold the lifeless child, and told David to climb into the hospital bed for a tender embrace. What happened next was nothing short of a miracle. Scroll down for video . When Kate and David Ogg were told their newborn son Jamie had passed away on March 25, 2010, they took him in their arms and cradled him to keep him warm . Jamie and Emily are now about to turn five years old and their parents have only recently told them of the miraculous story . In this mother's loving arms, the little boy started moving, and his breathing grew stronger. Hospital staff rushed back to his aid and together brought the baby back to life. Five years on, Jamie Ogg is a healthy, happy kid whose biggest problem regarding his troubled entry in the world is having a little brother who tells anyone who'll listen that he used to be dead but now he's alive. After years of trying to fall pregnant, the Queensland couple were delighted to find out they were having twins - the 'pigeon pair' of a boy and girl. But just six months into the pregnancy they found themselves in the delivery room and facing premature births. Jamie was born first on March 25, 2010 and his sister Emily followed two minutes later. 'They were both born in their sac but Jamie didn't make a noise when they tore it open. Emily let out a big wail,' Ms Ogg told Daily Mail Australia. 'We looked over and everyone was crowding around Jamie - there was about 20 people in the room. The vibe wasn't very good. When they were told the devastating news, Kate ordered her husband to take off his shirt and get into the bed to provide extra warmth - and miraculously he gasped for air and opened his eyes . Doctors worked on Jamie for 20 minutes before they stopped and informed his heartbroken parents . The doctor sat on the end of Ms Ogg's hospital bed and asked the couple if they had a name picked out . After birth, skin-to-skin contact is recognised as a simple step mothers can take to welcome their baby into the world. For Kate and David Ogg the point is all the more pertinent. The birth process is a stressful and exhausting time for the baby. Unicef advises mothers to hold their child in skin-to-skin contact to help their baby 'adapt to their new environment'. It means their 'heartbeat and breathing will be better controlled' and there is a wealth of evidence that suggests babies held in skin-to-skin contact are less stressed by the birth process. Unicef's advice states: 'We know that babies who have

The Yak is back and so is the question that used to annoy him but now just brings a smile. Age, for the striker who scored more Premier League goals than Cristiano Ronaldo and Fernando Torres, has always been more than a number. That is possibly because David Moyes once joked Yakubu Aiyegbeni was a ‘Nigerian 25’. And because Steve McClaren claimed the striker told him he was 25 when he signed for Middlesbrough 10 years ago. Reading striker Yakubu insists he has never been concerned with the questions marks over his age . So, how old is he? The profiles say 32; the sceptics are ruder. The big man among Reading’s big dreamers says he’s heard it all before. ‘It was always like this,’ he says. ‘But it does not bother me. Kanu has had it as well. 'I just laugh about it — people joke and that is it. If I was lying I don’t think I would be playing now. I would be retired.’ Thankfully for Reading and the FA Cup, the jibes have not got the better of him. Yakubu scored the goal that saw off Derby in the fifth round to set up the tie against Bradford, guaranteeing at least one side from outside the Premier League will be at Wembley in the semi-finals. For the neutrals, the hope is that League One Bradford can trip up another bigger club. For Yakubu, there is the hope that he can make it to Wembley for the first time after a mangled achilles tendon kept him out of Everton’s 2009 final defeat against Chelsea. The Nigerian striker scores Reading's second goal during the FA Cup fifth round defeat against Derby . Saturday (kick-off 12.45pm). TV: BT Sport 1 (from 12pm). If he does, it will complete a quite surreal journey that spans almost three years since he left Blackburn — ending 10 seasons in England — following relegation to the Championship. His absence has seen him scream at confused Chinese footballers and gain a sweaty taste of football in Qatar. ‘No regrets,’ as Yakubu says. And yet there were times in China, at Guangzhou R&F in the days before Sven Goran Eriksson rocked up, where he quite literally had no idea what was going on. ‘When I was there (after leaving Blackburn), we had a Brazilian coach (Sergio Farias) and he spoke in Portuguese,’ Yakubu says. ‘A guy that speaks English, he had to translate into English and then another guy had to translate from Portuguese to Chinese. The manager is supposed to speak for like five minutes but we are there for nine minutes. Yakubu, seen here celebrating a goal against Manchester City in 2004, scored 43 goals for Portsmouth . Yakubu made sure Reading reached the FA Cup quarter-finals with this goal against the Rams . Yakubu felt he was away from English football for too long and jumped at the chance to return . ‘It’s so difficult to speak with your team-mates. You don’t know how to tell him to pass. You just scream at him

Summary: Yakubu has faced doubts about his age for the majority of his career . 32-year-old sealed deadline day move to Reading in September . He scored winner against Derby to help Royals into FA Cup quarter-finals . Nigerian is hoping to help Reading to victory against Bradford .

Stuart Lancaster's men face Les Bleus at HQ on Saturday with a chance of clinching the title for the first time since 2011. Any one of four teams can win the Six Nations this year - although with three wins each, Wales, Ireland and England are in with a better chance than outsiders France who have two. England's Jack Howell prepares with catching practice for Le Crunch against France - on the deciding day of Six Nations action . England are locked on the same points as Ireland and Wales, but have a better points advantage heading into the final round of action . England head coach Stuart Lancaster insists only the final stage of the Ryder Cup can compare with Saturday's climactic round of the RBS 6 Nations. Lancaster believes the golfing showpiece contested by Europe and the United States every two years is the only sporting occasion that can match the drama created by the Six Nations' refusal to synchronise the last instalment of games. 'I can't think of another situation in sport where you'd go into it with this points differential that can affect the psychology, so it is different from a World Cup,' Lancaster said. 'The only scenario I can think of that is similar is the final day of the Ryder Cup when you're ahead or behind when the singles are coming. 'It's that sort of feeling. It will tell us a lot about the players, but it is a pretty unique situation as well.' England enter the final day with a points advantage of plus four and it is in the context of how Wales and then Ireland, who travel to Rome and Edinburgh respectively, perform that Lancaster must prepare his team. England players huddle up together as head coach Lancaster watches on during the open training session in south west London . England coach Lancaster says England must not try and win the game too early and deal with circumstances as they arise during the match . 'I have thought long and hard about the psychology of how you deal with your own players,' Lancaster said. 'There are only so many players who need to be involved in the key decisions. The rest of the players have been given a simple message - you go all-out for the win and you don't stop until 80 minutes is up. 'The key to begin with is not to chase the game too early. We have to go out there to perform and win the game, then we'll deal with whatever circumstances come along as we go.'

Inventor: An Peishi, a university lecturer from Sichuan, is the inventor of 'panda tea' China is embracing the harvest season of possibly the world's most expensive and bizarre tea. Locals dressed in panda costumes participate in the annual spring tea-picking festival in Ya'an, Sichuan Province, according the People's Daily. Tea leaves in this plantation are known as 'panda tea', which is green tea cultivated with the faeces of China's symbolic animal. The first pick is expected to sell for ¥440,000 (£46,000) per kg. The man behind the brew is An Yanshi, a super panda enthusiast from Sichuan and a lecturer at Sichuan University. Since he invented the tea in November 2011, An has collected 10 tons of panda droppings to fertilise the plantation. He promises drinkers they can expect 'a mature and nutty taste'. Mr Yanshi said: 'Pandas have a very poor digestive system and only absorb about 30 per cent of everything they eat. Poo power: Mr An has used 10 tons of droppings of these cuddly animals since 2011 to grow green tea . 'That means their excrement is rich in fibres and nutrients. 'Just like green tea, bamboo contains an element that can prevent cancer.' First batch of tea every year, usually picked in spring, is considered the best brew in China. An said he hoped his 'panda poo tea' could make it into the Guinness Book of World Records as the most expensive tea. Serious fan: Mr An has a large collection of panda souvenirs including clothes and paintings .
