'That only thing I know is win, so is losing in the back of his mind? Absolutely! Why? Because he probably lost three or five times before, so losing is in his mind,' he told Fight Hype. 'Losing is not in my mind because the only thing I know how to do is win.' Pacquiao arrived at LAX on Sunday and was taken away in a Cadillac Escalade as he waved to waiting fans. He had earlier been on the touchline as his basketball side Kia Sorrento lost 115-104 to Blackwater Elite.

I use my reach, I use my height, I use my movement; I use different techniques, whereas he's not as versatile as Floyd Mayweather. I think that's the difference between us two.' Mayweather will begin his training camp on Monday at his gym in Las Vegas.

Arsenal have put a new central defender on their summer shopping list, throwing Per Mertesacker's role at the club into doubt. Gunners scouts have been instructed to identify potential central defensive targets this summer, despite the fact Gabriel only arrived from Villarreal in January. Borussia Dortmund's Neven Subotic has been scouted in recent months, while Aleksandar Dragovic is also on the club's radar. Per Mertesacker impressed in Arsenal's victory at Manchester United in the FA Cup on Monday evening . The World Cup winner, pictured celebrating with Aaron Ramsey, has been criticised this season . Gabriel and Laurent Koscielny's place in Arsene Wenger's plans for next season look secure. But the arrival of a new centre back in the summer is likely to have repercussions for Mertesacker. The German's performance have been criticised this season, though he was excellent in Monday's euphoric FA Cup win over Manchester United. Borussia Dortmund defender Neven Subotic has been scouted in recent months by Arsenal . Aleksandar Dragovic, pictured in action for Dynamo Kiev, has also been targeted by the Gunners . He was recently dropped by Wenger, but Gabriel's hamstring injury has seen the defender handed an instant route back into the first-team. And the arrival of a new centre-half could marginalise Mertesacker's role in Wenger's plans. The capture of a new central defender could also have consequences for Calum Chambers. The England international has been used as cover at centre-back this season, but the club's transfer plans could mean Wenger sees his long-term future at right-back or holding midfield.

Summary: Arsene Wenger has put a new defender at the top of his shopping list . Neven Subotic and Aleksandar Dragovic are both on the club's radar . It could have repercussions for World Cup winner Per Mertesacker . The German has been criticised this season although he impressed in Arsenal's FA Cup victory against Manchester United at Old Trafford . CLICK HERE for all the latest Arsenal news .

British photographer Terry O'Neill has unveiled a new exhibition of celebrity mothers and daughters, including Jo Wood, Twiggy and Judy Garland, just in time for Mother's Day. The new collection, Mum: A Snapshot, is led by Jo Wood and daughter Leah, who appear in the exhibition twice thanks to a 1981 shot of the pair on tour with Ronnie Wood and the Rolling Stones. Capturing the special bond between mother and daughter, the show has been created in homage to the photographer's own late mother, and is free to the public this weekend, at London's White Space gallery. Scroll down for video . 'I can tell her anything, just about anything, she's always there for me and I love her,' says Leah Wood of mother Jo, pictured here on tour with Ronnie Wood and the Rolling Stones in 1981 . Leah and Jo Wood pose for the new Terry O'Neill exhibition . 'I actually did it in homage to my mother who I never had a chance to thank, because she died when I was young,' Terry O'Neill told This Morning. 'I never had a chance to thank her, and as you grow older of course you appreciate your mother more.' He added: 'So I got together this exhibition as a tribute to Mother’s Day.' Terry has been photographing celebrities for the last 50 years and the new show features both old and new pictures. Liza Minnelli posed with mum Judy Garland for this touching photograph in 1963, though Terry O'Neill has revealed that wasn't expecting to discover the superstar mother and daughter together when he called around to take a quick tabloid snap of the then 17-year-old Liza . A rare gem among the collection, which was created in association with online gift specialist notonthehighstreet.com, is a touching photograph of Liza Minnelli pictured with her mother Judy Garland, in 1963. Terry said: 'That was when I was 20 years old, I worked on the Daily Sketch, which was a tabloid paper at the time, and I got sent round to photograph Liza Minnelli. 'I go round to this mews house in Belgravia, door opens and it's Judy Garland! 'We got on well, and she made dinner for me and her daughter too.' British supermodel Twiggy poses with her daughter Carly Lawson . Actress Emilia Fox and her mother Joanna together pose in 2008 (pictured right), next to This Morning TV presenter Holly Willoughby and mother Lynn, which was taken in 2009 (pictured left) Other subjects in the heart warming collection include Emilia Fox and mother Joanna, Holly Willoughby and her mother Lynn, as well as British icon Twiggy and daughter Carly Lawson. Several of the shots which feature in O'Neill's exhibition were originally intended as gifts for the husbands of the women pictured. The 1980 shot of actress Nanette Newman, photographed with her daughters Sarah Standing and TV presenter Emma Forbes, was blown up by the photographer as a surprise present for the late Bryan Forbes, director of films including The Stepford Wives.

Everywhere you go on the Isle of Man, you'll see Manx flags - three conjoined white legs on a red background. For the Manx, the Triskelion is a powerful symbol of independent spirit and endurance, the motto being: 'Whichever way you throw, it will stand.' Lately, it's become a symbol for me too, of three islands. There's the island I've called home for the past 11 years, the island I write about in my novels, and somewhere in between, perhaps, a deeper truth about this beautiful rock in the middle of the Irish Sea. Independent spirit: The harbour at Ramsey, the Isle of Man's second biggest town . Legend: A carving of the sea god Manannan . Can a place with a reputation for being safe and sleepy really also be home to spies, killers and evil spirits that feature in my books? I like to think so, and here are a few reasons why. The weather might be mixed but the landscape is dramatic, whether seen from the sea, walking the coast path, or taking the electric railway to the top of the island's solitary mountain, Snaefell (from where, on a clear day, you can see the distant humped blurs of Scotland, England, Ireland and Wales). The rich variety of locations is something I've grown to appreciate in my books, and something the Isle of Man film industry has thrived on during the past decade. Need a spooky cottage? The island has plenty. The same goes for lush glens and lonely coves. But the island provides more than great backdrops. It's compact, with a population in the region of 85,000, and while that makes it ideally manageable for a weekend visit, it also fosters something all writers rely on - rumours and hearsay. My first Isle of Man-set thriller, Safe House, grew out of a rumour I heard almost as soon as I moved here - namely, that it's used as a place to relocate people enrolled in UK witness protection schemes. Is the rumour true? I don't know for certain, but it seems credible to me. The island is isolated and has lots of out-of-the-way spots. The Isle of Man also its own very distinct identity. Where else could the population swell for a fortnight every June in celebration of a controversial motorbike festival that pits man against machine over a course run on almost 38 miles of public roads? The Isle of Man is isolated, with some out of the way spots, lush glens and lonely coves . Racing glory: Every summer the island hosts the world-famous TT races, with motorbikes reaching 200mph . The TT (Tourist Trophy) races have been in existence since 1907, with recent competitors recording top speeds of 200mph. But while most islanders are proud of the long tradition of racing greats who have tamed the course, the event is not without its critics. Like many others, I find it hard to reconcile the number of fatalities that have occurred with the racing glory, but I can't fail to admire how brave the riders must

Summary: Author Chris Ewan sums up why he loves his Manx idyll . Isle of Man film industry is booming, with rich variety of locations on offer . Famous TT races bring vast crowds to the island every June .


A mobile phone found at the scene of a brutal axe murder in which three members of the same family were killed was used to search details of an infamous U.S. axe killing. Parents Teresa van Breda, 54, and Martin, 55, and their eldest son Rudi, 22, were found dead at the family home in Stellenbosch, 50 kilometres east of Cape Town, in January. Henri van Breda, 20, suffered what police sources reportedly said were 'self-inflicted' wounds following the bloodbath at his family home. His sister Marli, 16, was the only other survivor of the horrific attack, but is still in no fit state to talk about the slaughter which left her with a slashed jugular vein and severe head injuries. Forensic police officers reportedly analysed the search histories of phones and computers in the house and found one mobile had been used to look up an axe attack carried out by a U.S. man on his parents in 2004, news24 reported.

It was not said whose mobile phone was used to make the search. Porco is serving a prison sentence of 50 years to life . Porco was convicted of murder and attempted murder and is serving a prison sentence of 50 years to life. The case attracted a high level of media attention due to the fact Joan maintained her son's innocence during the trial and refused to testify against him. The story was the subject of a Lifetime movie titled 'Romeo Killer: The Chris Porco Story', which aired in 2013 and portrayed Porco as a wannabe playboy who attacked his parents after they complained about his bad college grades and wasteful spending. This comes after it emerged both surviving Van Breda children have lawyers representing them in the division of their parents' ten million pound ($A19 million) fortune, South Africa's Sunday Times newspaper reported. Henri, who has been cared for by relatives since the attack, has a legal team led by Pieter Botha, who successfully fought to have his client Shrien Dewani cleared of the murder of his new bride, Anni. A lawyer has also been appointed for Marli, who is under police guard while she recovers at an exclusive rehabilitation unit. The attack, which took place in the

Just last week a consumer advocacy group slammed new proposals to reduce online piracy as 'truly frightening', as its revealed they could expose Australian internet users to unlimited damages payout to Hollywood studios. Under the new Copyright Notice Scheme Industry Code, anyone with an internet connection could potentially face legal threats from Hollywood studios for illegally downloading movies, TV shows, and music. Consumer group Choice labelled the plan, which was compiled by Australia's largest internet service providers (ISP's) at the request of the federal government, as 'medieval' and said it 'reads like a horror movie script'. The scheme could come into affect as soon as September this year. Under the proposed code, a three-strikes system would be introduced for illegal downloads. Customers suspected of illegally downloading content will be sent a series of notices from their ISP's - a warning, an 'education' notice, and a final notice. Consumer advocacy group Choice has slammed the Code as 'frightening' and is calling for amendments . The breaches will be identified through technology which tracks activity on internet protocol addresses, and a notice will then be sent to the account holder to advise them of the suspected infringement. If offenders receive a a third warning, Internet Service Providers will be

Great players with baggage like Yaya Toure are always worth the aggro when they are on top of their game. But when their form dips and yet they remain high maintenance, there is only ever one outcome. It happened to Roy Keane whose tantrums and outbursts were tolerated by Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United until the moment he no longer justified his place in the team. After the embarrassing mis-match in the Nou Camp when Barcelona could have scored at least six against Manchester City, you feel that time is rapidly running out for Toure and others like Vincent Kompany and Edin Dzeko. This summer will surely see a major transfusion of personnel at the Etihad if they are to challenge Europe's best. Midfielder Yaya Toure struggled to impress as City crashed out of the Champions League to Barcelona . City were happy to put up with the baggage that came with Toure (right) while he was performing at his best . City captain and defender Vincent Kompany (right) contests for the ball alongside Barcelona's Luis Suarez . Defender Pablo Zabaleta has been left out of City's team for their biggest games this season . Toure became the Premier League's best-paid player when he signed for Roberto Mancini from Barcelona in 2010. In domestic football, he has been an unqualified success and scored 24 goals last season as City won their second championship. His world-class strike against Sunderland at Wembley won Manuel Pellegrini the Capital One Cup. When things were rosy, the club were happy to overlook constant talk about him being linked with other clubs, his pushiness to secure improved contracts and a farcical stand-off about not being treated with enough respect on his birthday. Premier League managers felt the midfielder didn't do enough of the hard yards to protect City defensively but they were unable to capitalise much because when Yaya had the ball he was an unstoppable force of nature. But those days have gone and the 31-year-old's hapless showing against Barcelona as City crashed out of the Champions League underlined he is not the man to push the club forward any more. His dereliction of duty to allow Ivan Rakitic the space to score Barca's winner was noted immediately. Going forward, his shooting was wayward and he was taken off before the end by Pellegrini – unthinkable one or two years ago. Remember, Toure had been banned for the previous three games in Europe and this was his big chance to show the world what he was still capable of. The club are in no hurry to offer the current African Player of the Year a new deal at anything like the £240,000-a-week terms of his last contract. Indeed, with Financial Fair Play now increasingly important, the temptation to offload him and his wages to Inter Milan this summer to allow new blood is very tempting. Striker Edin Dzeko could be considered as dispensable by City in the summer if they have an overhaul . Joe Hart (right) was in inspired form during Manchester City's 1-0 defeat

An episode of a popular children's show has apparently been pulled off the air after disgusted parents noticed cartoonists had drawn a picture of a pair of bare breasts into a scene. Oggy and the Cockroaches is a French animated comedy series produced by Xilam and Gaumont Film Company and which airs on the Nickelodeon children's TV cartoon channel NickToons. But the comedy has caused fury among some parents after an episode showed a framed picture of a topless lady showing off her assets. Scroll down for video . An episode of popular children's TV show Oggy and the Cockroaches has been pulled from the air after angry parents complained about this scene (pictured) which shows a topless woman in a picture in the background . The busty topless cartoon character - who appears to be a duck blessed with an enormous bosom - was in the background of an episode which aired in the US on March 5. She also sports a pair of tiny bikini briefs, giant sunglasses and a bouffant hair-do. The NickToons US website now appears to have removed the show from both its schedule and the show's homepage, although some character's 'profile pages' remain live. But TV schedules for the next few days show other episodes are still billed to air in the US. NickToons UK and Ireland began airing the show in September last year and shows new episodes every weekend morning. It is unclear if the show will also be removed from the air in Britain. Nickelodeon's US website now appears to have removed the show from both its schedule and the show's homepage, although some pages remain live . One father told TMZ his child spotted the pair of breasts on his faourite show and was 'extremely unhappy' about it - particularly has he was forced to have an chat about anatomy with his 8-year-old son. MailOnline has contacted Nickelodeon and Xilam for a comment. Many viewers have taken to social media to discuss 'boobgate'. Hedda G wrote: 'Of course the image was inappropriate. That being said an eight year old boy is in 3rd grade. He should know about breasts. The little guy should have a basic understanding.' Christine added: 'Cartoonists have been doing this c*** for ages especially Disney. Parents still take their kids to Disney cartoons. Other things to worry about people.' Megan Mayhew wrote on Facebook: 'Ok so it's ok for women to breastfeed in public but a cartoon of boobs is horrible. If an eight year old has never noticed women have boobs than I'm glad his dad had a talk with him. Stop making the naked body so taboo.' Selina Fraley said: 'Wait so the father was concerned about the boobs in the background but not the filth that his kids was watching I mean, the characters were poisoning each other and lit eachother on fire! But you're worried about cartoon breasts smh get your priorities straight.'

A top chef shot dead by police after robbing a bank wearing drag and cartoonish makeup reportedly had a secret heroin addiction. Cody Spafford, 26, held up a Wells Fargo branch in Seattle, Washington, last year while wearing a fake nose, a wig, skirt and thick white makeup. Using a fake gun, he threatened tellers and made off with $90,000 stuffed in a suitcase before crashing his car about a mile away. Scroll down for video . Hold-up: Cody Spafford, a 26-year-old sous chef in a prestigious Seattle restaurant, held up a Wells Fargo branch in women's clothes and thick makeup last year . Spafford, who abandoned his realistic-looking BB gun, but kept hold of an 8-inch knife, was shot seven times in a stand-off with police and died at the scene. His family in Utah, and co-workers at The Walrus and The Carpenter, an upscale oyster bar where he was sous chef, were stunned to learn that the man they knew was behind the April 2014 hold-up. Spafford was also set to take a job at high profile New York restaurant Buvette. But, according to a long profile of Spafford published in the Seattle Metropolitan magazine, the high-adrenaline bank robbery was not the only thing those close to him would never have suspected. Promising: Spafford was due to take up a head chef's job in New York City - but had relapsed into heroin use, according to a new profile of him. He is pictured right with an oyster-shucking trophy . In the wake of the robbery, police investigators found syringes and a pipe inside his crashed Hyundai, which he flipped over in an affluent Seattle street before climbing on to a roof of a nearby garage, where police caught up with him. An earlier profile in The Stranger, an alternative weekly newspaper in Seattle, said his housemate Monica found evidence of drug use in his room - though she wouldn't expand on what 'drug paraphernalia' was there. The Metropolitan also reported Spafford had been increasingly erratic in the weeks leading up to the robbery. The profile said he had started coming to work late, forget to place orders for new oysters, and would wear long-sleeved clothes, which would have hidden any signs of drug use. Crash scene: Spafford fled the bank in a Hyundai but crashed it after driving around a mile. Officers found a pipe and syringes in the vehicle . Shot dead: Spafford was shot seven times by a police officer. He was carrying a knife at the time, which is pictured above . An inquest also revealed that he had burned through almost $10,000 of savings in the weeks before he died - and was awaiting a prison sentence for a DUI charge from when he visited home in Utah. Even his parents reportedly had no idea he had relapsed into heroin use, which had plagued his youth. Spafford had reportedly spiraled into addiction as a high school senior back in Salt Lake City, but kicked the habit before moving to Seattle in 2010 for a new

Ronnie O'Sullivan has again voiced his disaffection with snooker, claiming he is just 'using' the game and has not yet committed to entering next month's World Championship. The 39-year-old, who has won the UK Championship, the Masters and the Crucible title five times each, has struggled for much of his career with the mental aspect of the game and the demands of the tour circuit. His achievements in recent years are outstanding, winning the 2013 World Championship having barely played all season and the 2014 UK Championship despite suffering with a fractured ankle. Ronnie O'Sullivan claims that snooker does not offer the financial reward and security that it once did . O'Sullivan also said that he has contemplated not entering the snooker World Championship next month . O Sullivan celebrates winning the 2014 UK Championship but hit out at the prize money on offer to players . VIDEO O'Sullivan Into Last 16 . But as this year's Crucible build-up begins, his commitment is once more in question. 'Snooker is no longer what it once was for me. I just use snooker, rather than letting it use me,' he told the Guardian. 'I know it sounds crazy but I wasn't even sure if I was going to enter the worlds. I probably will but it's got to the point where I want to give snooker only 20 per cent of my time. 'It's not something I'm that bothered about. It's probably one of my least favourite tournaments. Seventeen days is too long. 'But as a kid, I dreamed of being world champion. (Then) I thought if I can win three or four, that would be great. Three? You're getting to be a great player. Four? You're on a level with John Higgins, who is a master of the game. So I'm really happy to have won it five times.' It is a familiar refrain from O'Sullivan. He threatened not to take up his place in the 2014 Masters, polling his Twitter followers for advice only to announce his entry around an hour later. The switch in the world rankings format, from points to a money list, played into O'Sullivan's hands by allowing him to 'play the system' - as he put it in 2013 - by focusing on the more lucrative tournaments. O'Sullivan claimed the World Championship tournament is one of his least favourite events due to its length . O'Sullivan has won the World Championship five times already in a highly decorated career . But he remains unhappy and even said he cannot achieve financial security through snooker's 's***' prize money - an extraordinary claim even for O'Sullivan, especially as he has already noted: 'I could get by the rest of my life if I never worked again.' He said: 'If you go back five or 10 years I used to get good sponsorship for my logos. I was on £350,000 even before I hit a ball. Now there is no money in snooker. The top players are suffering now. 'I don't want it to come across as if I'm doing this

Summary: Ronnie O'Sullivan believes snooker does not offer him financial security . He claims he now only wants to give snooker '20 per cent' of his time . O'Sullivan also criticised the prize money on offer to top players .


Single people may have a list of attributes they are looking for in a partner when they embark on the dating game, from that elusive ‘spark’ to a hot body. Now a new study has revealed that playfulness comes high on the list of desirable attributes in a long-term partner. Experts say that a sense of fun is more important to many people than whether someone has a degree or is religious. Play to win hearts: A new study has revealed that playfulness comes high on the list of desirable attributes in a partner (illustrated with a stock image) - just behind friendliness, intelligence and a sense of humour . Research by the University of Zurich revealed that playfulness is important to both sexes – just behind friendliness, intelligence and a sense of humour. They also found that naturally playful people deem humour, a laid back attitude and creativity more important in partners than their more serious peers. They described playful adults as those having a love of wordplay who enjoy teasing, people who are spontaneous and will take on a challenge lightheartedly and those who play the fool, for example. While playfulness comes in many forms, little research has been conducted into the trait and how desirable it is to others. Study found playful people deem humour, a laid back attitude and creativity more important in partners than their more serious peers (stock image) The new study builds on the research of anthropologist Garry Chick from Pennsylvania State University, who developed a theory that playfulness in adults is a desirable trait in sexual selection. This is because it indicates to women, a low level of aggression in men and to men, vitality in the fairer sex. René Proyer and Lisa Wagner from the Department of Psychology at the University of Zurich, have shown that playfulness also plays an important role in the choice of a partner in the European culture. They asked 327 young adults from Germany, Switzerland and Austria to examine a list of 16 characteristics and indicate whether or not they found them desirable in a potential long-term partner. The results showed that men and women largely agreed in their orders of preference, although there were differences in individual ratings, according to the American Journal of Play. For example, women found a sense of humour more important than men and men found an exciting personality more important than women. Friendliness, intelligence, humour and a fun tendency came at the top of the list. Playfulness ranked mid-table, although not all that far behind the favourites. ‘Therefore, this personality trait also seems important for the choice of partner – at least more so that the partner having a degree, good genes or being religious,’ said Dr Proyer. They also found that participants who described themselves as playful also valued playfulness, humour, a laid-back attitude, a fun tendency and creativity among potential partners themselves. Study volunteers who were in relationships assessed themselves as more playful than those who were currently single. ‘Although we should be cautious while interpreting the data, this could

Summary: University of Zurich study revealed importance of playfulness in a partner . Trait ranked just below friendliness, intelligence and a sense of humour . Playful people deem humour and a laid back attitude particularly important . Builds on US study that showed playulness indicates to women a low level of aggression in men and vitality in women, to men .


Workers at a cold storage facility in Illinois are being credited with intercepting a massive marijuana haul spread across 1,512 boxes of frozen avocado pulp. In total more than of a ton of weed was seized with an estimated street value of $10 million. Staff at the suburban facility in Lyons became suspicious of the weight of the shipment. They also questioned its instructions for an 'urgent pick-up'. All organic: Authorities found more than $10 million worth of marijuana hidden in a shipment of 'Frozavo' frozen avocado pulp at a west suburban cold storage facility in Lyons, Illinois, on Wednesday . Concealed: Flat bricks containing 2,100 pounds of weed were spread across 1,512 boxes of pulp . Sheriff’s police responded to the building on the 8400 block of West 47th Street with a narcotics-sniffing dog, which detected drugs inside the pallets, according to NBC Chicago.

Michael Vaughan believes Alastair Cook is 'clearly bitter', and must set aside his own World Cup disappointment for the good of his England team at the start of their Ashes year. Cook claimed on Wednesday that England's decision to replace him as captain with Eoin Morgan, at the 11th hour before the global tournament in Australia and New Zealand, was proved 'probably wrong' by subsequent events. England made an embarrassing early exit at the hands of Bangladesh, before the knockout stages were under way. Alastair Cook was replaced as Engtland's one-day captain before this year's World Cup . Former captain Vaughan interprets Cook's remarks as a sign that he is still struggling to come to terms with what happened after losing his 50-over role because of his continued poor batting form. Cook will nonetheless lead England in three Tests against the West Indies, on a tour starting early next month, before returning home to face first New Zealand and then Australia this summer. BBC pundit Vaughan said: 'He's clearly bitter. 'I think that's a bad mentality to have, when you think he's going to be back leading the team in a couple of weeks' time.' Cook led England to a Champions Trophy final on home soil two years ago, and the top of the world rankings, but their recent one-day international record under him deteriorated. Vaughan added: 'Alastair Cook's last six captaincy jobs in (ODI) series for England, he lost every single one. 'The only series they've won was away in the West Indies, when he wasn't the captain.' Michael Vaughan claims Cook is 'bitter' about the decision to replace him as captain . Cook could only watch from afar as England beat only Scotland and Afghanistan in their World Cup campaign under Morgan, but he sensed they were 'shell-shocked' and in need of 'real leadership'. Vaughan argues Cook must move on, and start scoring prolifically again - as he has for the vast majority of his record-breaking career. 'I don't think it's great that the captain comes out and criticises the leadership of the captain that takes over - but he's clearly bitter. 'He's got to clear that out of his head, because it's so important that by the time he gets to the West Indies England need him scoring runs. 'He has to score runs in the Caribbean; he has to get runs against New Zealand - so by the time the Ashes arrive in July, no one is talking about Alastair Cook's position in the Test team. 'He hasn't scored a hundred in any format of the game for two years. That has to change in the West Indies.'

Summary: Alastair Cook was replaced as England's one-day captain . Eoin Morgan led the side at the World Cup but England were knocked out . Cook believes the decision to replace him was proved 'probably wrong' Michael Vaughan believes Cook is bitter about the decision .


The Liberal Democrats have been accused of accepting a potentially illegal donation in a new party funding scandal. An undercover reporter, posing as an Indian businessman, was told he could make a major gift to the party without revealing his identity, it was claimed. Treasury minister Danny Alexander was dragged into the row after he was recorded urging him to give more money, but Nick Clegg insisted he had done nothing more than poliutley thank a suporter for their help. The journalist, who was posing as an Indian businessman, was allegedly told to split his donations between family members to keep his identity a secret, and was pictured at a meeting with Danny Alexander . An undercover Daily Telegraph reporter was reportedly told that by spreading his donation among other family members, he would not exceed the £7,500 threshold requiring him to be named on the Electoral Commission register. The reporter was offered private meetings with Nick Clegg and other senior figures. He was allegedly told he could also back-date cheques so he appeared to have given the money in different years and could avoid declaring it as a lump sum. The fake donor was said to have been invited to a fundraising dinner with senior Lib Dem figures after he and his fictional 'cousin' handed the party £9,100. The donation was sought by Ibrahim Taguri, the party's former chief fundraiser. He is running to be an MP in Brent Central. He was pictured at a private meeting with Chief Secretary to the Treasury Danny Alexander who allegedly encouraged him to provide further financial support and said his money would 'genuinely make a difference to the results of the election'. The cabinet minister is said to have told him: ‘I just want you to know that I, personally, am very, very grateful for what you’re doing. It genuinely will make a difference to the results of the election’. Mr Taguri was recorded telling him: ‘When you do this, the doors will open for you… We’re going to introduce you to the parties, they will be, very, very helpful once they know you are helpful.’ But Mr Clegg told LBC radio that the recording showed 'Danny being a polite guy, just saying thank you to someone who he has been told is supporting the party'. The Lib Dem leader added: 'The idea that Danny or any parliamentarian has done anything wrong is categorically untrue. 'On the issue of Ibrahim Taguri, no cheque has been received by the Liberal Democrats, no cheque has been cashed. If we had received this cheque in question, of course it would have been scrutinised and checked.' Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg insisted Mr Alexander was just being 'a polite guy' and had done nothing wrong . The scandal will put the spotlight on how funding is sought by the Lib Dems and, potentially, other parties, and what access they may have been offering in return. It comes weeks after ex-foreign secretaries Malcolm Rifkind and Jack Straw were filmed accepting money to work for a bogus Chinese firm. The

Met with Danny Alexander who urged him to donate more, it is claimed . Was allegedly promised high-level meetings with other senior Lib Dems .


Crystal Palace match-winner Wilfried Zaha was all smiles as Stoke City blamed referee Andre Marriner for losing a hard contest compared to rugby Six Nations by victorious manager Alan Pardew. Zaha, who has been ordered by manager Alan Pardew to cut out his 'little sulks' after an inconsistent season, completed Palace's first top-flight victory at Stoke since 1979 with the winner on the stroke of half-time. It completed a comeback victory for the visitors but Stoke will felt badly let down by two key decisions having taken an early lead through Mame Biram Diouf. Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha (far right) celebrates with Glenn Murray after scoring against Stoke City . Zaha beat Stoke City goalkeeper Asmir Begovic to the ball to put Crystal Palace in the lead just before the interval .

First, Asmir Begovic was harshly adjudged to have brought down Yannick Bolasie as Glenn Murray levelled from the spot after 41 minutes. Then, as Stoke chased an equaliser in the second half, Joel Ward got away with blocking Diouf's sot with his arms. Zaha, left out of Gareth Southgate's England Under 21 squad this week, earned a standing ovation from the noisy Palace fans when he was replaced late on. They are now 11 points above the bottom three and assured of another season in the Premier League. Pardew, whose side are now above his old club Newcastle in the table, said: 'Wilf had a hard game. The Stoke left back Erik Pieters is a player I tried to sign, he is aggressive and Wilf struggled at times. But he still managed to have his moments. 'The whole game was a physical but fair. It was almost like a Six Nations game at times in terms of its toughness.' Stoke boss Mark Hughes was justifiably angry at the two key decisions that went against his side. 'When you see the replay for their penalty, the lad Bolasie has got his foot up high above Asmir, that is why Asmir missed the ball. But the referee deemed it a penalty. It was a key moment and Andre Marriner missed a lot of things. 'The handball (by Ward) was arguably

Many of us pass urine without thinking – or looking – at the colour of it. But perhaps it’s time to take note, because our pee can say a lot about our health, according to one doctor. Speaking on ITV’s This Morning, Dr Chris Steele explained what each shade of pee – from clear to red to green and blue – tells us about the body. He lined up test tubes of a range of colours of urine, from clear through to dark yellow, to red and blue. His first piece of advice is to look at the colour of urine while peeing, rather than when it has hit the toilet bowl. Scroll down for video . Dr Chris Steele, a GP and resident doctor on ITV's This Morning, said people should look at the colour of their urine while they are peeing, not when the urine has hit the bowl and is diluted in water . Red and dark red urine (pictured) could be caused by certain foods like beetroot or drugs like laxatives. However, it could be due to blood in the urine, signalling an infection, or tumours or kidney stones . He told presenters Phillip Schofield and Amanda Holden: 'You should look at the colour in the stream that you’re passing, not when it’s in the toilet bowl, because it gets diluted in two litres of water.’ When asked if this would be a bit difficult for women, he replied: ‘You can even catch it if you’re worried.’ And when thinking about the colour of our pee, it's important to remember how food, drink and medication could be affecting it, he added. He said: ‘Laxatives can cause a darkening colour of the urine. Always think about what you’re putting in your mouth, could that be affecting things?’ An example of this is asparagus and food colourants that can turn the urine blue or green. Meanwhile, urine that is frothy and foamy could be a warning sign someone is eating too much protein and needs to cut back, he said. ‘It could be due to protein. Maybe you’re on a high protein diet. Or it could be due to infection.' Next, he explained what each shade of pee means, in terms of health. Clear urine could be a sign of a ‘good hydrated person’, Dr Steele said. However, it could be because they are taking diuretic medicine which is making them pass water frequently. The diagram, created by the Cleveland Clinic, Ohio, shows that urine should be straw coloured or pale yellow. If it is darker, it suggests the person is dehydrated . He added: ‘They might be drinking diuretic-type drinks, such as coffee and alcohol. They can cause this effect.’ He explained that the kidneys have two main functions: the first being to filter out toxins, create waste matter, and get it out of the body. The second is to balance fluid in the body; the fluid gained from drinks and metabolic reactions in the body, and the fluids lost through sweat. A deep yellow coloured urine means the

Summary: GP Dr Chris Steele advises people to check the colour of their urine . Check the colour mid-stream, rather than when the pee has hit the bowl . Clear urine means a person is hydrated - or has had too much coffee . Darker urine could be a sign of jaundice caused by liver disease . Red pee may be due to food dye, or a sign of an infection like cystitis . Dark red pee could signal blood, signalling a tumour or kidney stones .


The latest issue of Time magazine features Hillary Clinton on its cover, but there's something different about the former secretary of state and would-be Madam President. The way the magazine's graphic designers positioned her silhouette under the letter 'M' in its iconic masthead appears to tack a pair of devil horns on her head. And it's not the first time Time has done this to a world leader. The March 23, 2015 cover of Time magazine gives Hillary Clinton unintentional devil horns . Vladimir Putin, Barack Obama, Margaret Thatcher and Pope Francis have gotten the photographic Beelzebub treatment. Even Jesus Christ was once pictured with horns – right above his crown of thorns. This week's subtle jab at Clinton, intentional or not, comes as she is under fire for using a secret, private email system during her years as secretary of state. Democratic insiders are beginning to reconsider her role as the party's 'inevitable' 2016 presidential nominee, and other potential candidates are testing the waters. Past 'Time' devil-horn cover subjects have included Presidents Bill Clinton (left) and Barack Obama (right) Time's White House correspondent shared some insider gossip about reactions to the Hillary cover . The cover story is headlined 'The Clinton Way,' and chronicles Mrs. Clinton's and her husband's long history of bending rules – and, some argue, laws – to conform to their political ambitions. 'They write their own rules. Will it work this time?' Time asks. 'Along with her husband – the 42nd President of the United States – Hillary Clinton is the co-creator of a soap-operatic political universe in which documents vanish, words like "is" take on multiple meanings and foes almost always overplay their hand,' author David von Drehle writes. 'Impeachment can be a route to higher approval ratings; the occasional (and rare) defeat merely marks the start of the next campaign. Whatever rules may apply to them, the law of gravity is not one.' HOLY SMOKES: 'Time' has even put Pope Francis and JESUS underneath its iconic letter 'M' One Time reporter who covers the White House wrote on Twitter that that his colleagues were trading quips about the Hillary cover. 'Actual discussion in the TIME office: "That’s not the way the horns would be",' he tweeted. Time's editors responded to the online hubbub with a few paragraphs online and a collection of nearly three dozen instances where the 'M' produced unexpected headgear. 'This has happened before. ... 'Any resemblance to cats, bats or devil horns is entirely coincidental,' They wrote.

Summary: 'M' in magazine's logo is mostly covered by Clinton silhouette, with the inner points of the letter forming horns on a Clinton silhouette . Subtle jab, intentional or not, comes as Hillary is under fire for using a secret, private email system during her years as secretary of state . Barack Obama, Margaret Thatcher, Vladimir Putin, Pope Francis and JESUS have turned up with the 'horns' on their heads on Time covers .

Blackburn Rovers manager Gary Bowyer has dismissed suggestions that striker Jordan Rhodes could leave. Championship promotion hopefuls Derby County and Norwich are keen to take Rhodes on loan with view to a permanent £8million transfer should they go up. Nottingham Forest and Sheffield Wednesday are interested in a similar deal. The 25-year-old Scotland international has scored 13 goals this season but has not been a regular starter and was on the bench for Sunday's 0-0 FA Cup quarter-final draw at Liverpool. Blackburn striker Jordan Rhodes will not be leaving Ewood Park to join a Championship rival . Rhodes (centre) was left on the subs' bench for the duration of Blackburn's FA Cup match against Liverpool . 'I don't understand why we'd want to even consider loaning one of our players to rivals,' said Bowyer. 'I think it's come out of possibly that he wasn't involved in the starting 11 on Sunday. 'We've had plenty of chats, of course we have,' added Bowyer. 'But he's starting on Wednesday against Bolton and we're looking forward to him scoring like he did last week at Sheffield Wednesday. 'It's simple. We've got 11 league games left and a Cup quarter-final with a potential visit to Wembley. 'Why we would want to be letting any of our players go at this stage is beyond me.' Blackburn, who are 14 points off sixth place, rejected a £12m proposal from Hull City last year but posted debts of £79.8m and are under a transfer embargo for failing to comply with FFP rules. Gary Bowyer has ruled out the possibility of Rhodes leaving the club before the end of the season .

Summary: Jordan Rhodes has been linked with a loan move away from Ewood Park . Derby and Norwich are keen on signing Rhodes to boost promotion hopes . Gary Bowyer has ruled out the possibility of Rhodes leaving the club .

Two football fans claim to have sneaked into a Premier League game by pretending one of them was confined to a wheelchair and sitting in the disabled section of the ground. The Everton supporters boasted about their exploits on Facebook - but admitted that some people would see them as 'scum' for the stunt. The pair, who have not been identified, posted a photograph of one of them sitting in a wheelchair while watching the club's away game against Stoke City last Wednesday night. Cheat: Two football fans claim they sneaked into the Britannia Stadium by pretending to be disabled . Boast: The supporters posted this message on a Facebook football fans' page admitted they were 'scum' Writing on a Facebook page called The Football Bible, one of the fans said: 'Me and my mate decided to go to Stoke away last minute on Wednesday. 'The only spare ticket we could get was in the disabled section though. So he borrowed a wheelchair from work and I went as his carer. 'We're scum aren't we? We're going to hell for what we did in Stoke.' The Everton Disabled Supporters Association vowed to investigate the fans' claims - but insisted that they could not have obtained their tickets through the club. Chairman Steve Heneghan said: 'There's no way they could get it from us. If something did happen, we would throw them out of our membership, and the club would do the same.' Game: The supporters managed to watch the match between Everton and Stoke City last Wednesday . He told MailOnline that disabled tickets to away games were generally reserved for fans who regularly attend matches, making it difficult to manipulate the system. Mr Heneghan added: 'You have to keep an eye out for fraudsters. In the past, some fans have just turned up in a wheelchair and been let into the ground - there's no way to guard against that. 'There are people in this world who'll do anything to cheat disabled people. If you're desperate enough, evil enough, devious enough to get into a game, then anyone can do it.' Other disabled fans blasted the stunt at Stoke's Britannia Stadium - Ollie Baskaran wrote on Facebook: 'I'm a wheelchair user and every time I have to book disabled tickets for anywhere, I have to send paperwork etc. just to prove I'm disabled.'

George Boyd scored a famous Burnley winner as Manchester City's strongarm tactics backfired ahead of their big date in The Nou Camp. Turf Moor was bouncing as Boyd lashed home a poor clearance from returning City captain Vincent Kompany after 61 minutes. And Manuel Pellegrini's men – who sent on £50million substitutes Wilfried Bony and Stevan Jovetic to try and salvage the game – were lucky to survive with 11 men after bad challenges from Sergio Aguero and Martin Demichelis. CLICK HERE to read Sportsmail's Joe Bernstein's full match report from Turf Moor. Host commentator . What a potential season-defining moment Burnley's win could be tonight. The victory still sees the Clarets in the relegation zone - but by only one point with Sunderland looking over their shoulders ever-more. Meanwhile the defeat for City is damaging for their title hopes. A win for Chelsea on Sunday would see Manuel Pellegrini's side trail by eight points with nine games remaining. City now have to pick themselves up with a daunting trip to Barcelona in the Champions League on Wednesday night. Until next time, have a good evening! And the referee brings a close to the match. Relegation candidates Burnley have stunned the champions Manchester City! George Boyd's goal separates the two sides. Cue pandemonium among the Turf Moor faithful. 92 mins: Burnley make their second defensive change of the match as Danny Ings is taken off for Steven Reid. The hosts are now playing without any recognised strikers. 91 mins: Oh wow, what a huge moment in the match. Pablo Zabaleta charges into the Burnley box and falls under the challenge of Mee. On first inspection it looked a penalty and the replays suggest so too. However the referee decides otherwise and awards a free-kick to Burnley as Jason Shackell is fouled by Zabaleta during his tumble. The City players are incensed. Will that moment spell curtains for their title challenge? There will be four minutes of injury time to be added on... 86 mins: Burnley make their first change of the match and it's a defensive one as striker Sam Vokes is replaced by Stephen Ward. Lampard's appearance is his 600th in the Premier League. Only Ryan Giggs has made more. 82 mins: And that cross is Toure's last piece of action as he is replaced by Frank Lampard. 81 mins: What a chance that was for City to equalise. Navas cuts the ball back on the right flank to Yaya Toure. The latter whips in a devilish cross that finds the head of Aguero at the back post. The Argentina international can only head over from just outside the six-yard box though. The frustration grows for the visitors. City are continuing to press for an equaliser but have yet to breach the Burnley defence. As they push further forward gaps are starting to appear which Burnley are beginning to exploit. The visitors have simply not been at it tonight, a huge credit must go to the Clarets though. They've been brilliant. 74 mins: Pellegrini makes his second change of the match

The printing press, the computer, sliced bread, the internet: Sometimes an invention comes along that changes the world as we know it. Whether or not D Free will be seated among these revolutionary inventions is hard to say at this stage, but the company behind it certainly thinks so. This small wearable device is worn on your belly and can tell you when it’s time to go the toilet, with an app on your phone sending you reminders. Scroll down for video . A San Francisco-based company has created a toilet alert wearable. D Free attaches to your belly button and monitors your intestine activity. When it is almost time to go an app gives you a 10-minute warning. It also tracks daily stats and tells you how many times you have gone . The company behind it, Triple W in San Francisco, said in a video that D Free ‘helps you to take back control of your life.’ They continued: ‘You’ll no longer feel stressed about unpredictable bowel movements.’ While technical details on the device are not known at the moment, it appears to take readings from your belly, and feeds them to an app. There are thousands of public toilets around the world, but finding one - especially when you’re desperate - can prove impossible. Plus, it's increasingly difficult to find one that is in working order and free to use. The Flush Toilet Finder app was created to solve this problem. It uses your phones GPS to find nearby public conveniences around the world that are free, and those that offer disabled access. It was built by Jake Ruston, 21, from Rotherham, South Yorkshire, and is based on a global database of 100,000 public toilets. The app knows when you when you need to go to the toilet, and gives you a 10-minute reminder when it’s nearly time to go. 'We have detected activity in your intestines,' the app says when it, well, detects activity in your intestines. The release date for the product is estimated to be December, and according to RocketNews24 an Indiegogo campaign will be launched in May of this year. The site also suggests that D Free will cost about £130 ($200) at first, but will eventually come down in price to about £35 ($50). Apparently, over time the app will learn more about your bowel movements, improving the accuracy of its information. From the video it also seems that the app will track the length of your bathroom breaks, and also shows you how often you are going each day. The developers say that it is especially useful for people who suffer from incontinence or those who have lost control of their bowel. ‘People with disabilities that need ample preparation time to go to the bathroom: the elderly, people with bowel dysfunctions, it can happen to anyone,’ the narrator in the video says. ‘When you go outside with D Free, D Free will notify you when it’s time for a bathroom break. You’ll have plenty of time to find a bathroom and accommodate your

American Apparel is trying to nip their dirty reputation in the bud. The clothing company long been known for their racy ads featuring what critics have said are underage looking girls in barely-there outfits with their nipples and even pubic hair in full view. In an attempt to distance themselves from their ousted 'sex-obsessed' former CEO Dov Charney and their infamous adverts, the company this week has begun photoshopping out some of the models' exposed nipples and body hair making them look more like plastic mannequins. Animal reports that the changes can be seen on the company's lingerie page in the 'new' section and a brunette model in translucent lingerie who once had more showing on Thursday was edited to be much less exposed. Scroll down for video . No nipple!: This American Apparel model in a translucent black bodysuit has a belly button but as of Thursday her nipples have been air brushed off in what may be the company's attempt to re-brand their image . Charney's replacement CEO Paula Schneider has said she is attempting to make the brand 'relevant to millennials' without it bordering on 'pornographic.' 'This is an edgy brand and it’s always going to be an edgy brand, and it’s about social commentary, it’s about gay rights, and it’s about immigration reform. It’s about the things millennials care about,' Schneider told The New York Times in January. While many may welcome the company's attempt to shave away their previous image, some activists think showing nipple is perfectly fine and empowers women in what otherwise may be a mannequin's world. Michelle Lytle, co-founder of the nipple printed bikini line TaTa Top thinks that by censoring women and making them look like mannequins or dolls, the company is actually taking power away from women who should not feel ashamed of their bodies. Lytle told Animal that American Apparel has tried to reach out to diverse audiences by coming out with t-shirts that say 'legalize gay' and 'legalize LA' but have very little to comment on women's equality. 'To see them taking a strong stance on those issues but not on women’s equality is disappointing,' said Lytle who runs the feminist clothing line with her partner Robyn. 'This is a company that is clearly trying to distance themselves from their founder,' she continued. Nip no nip: The model on the left in see through white lingerie once had her nipples and pubic hair in full display more like the model in the back lingerie on the right . 'It’s kind of laughable for them to think that removing nipples from their images of their sheer lingerie is the best way to do this considering their questionable ad choices in recent years. This is a step in the wrong direction and is contributing to the sexualisation of a woman’s body at a time where there is a large and growing movement for equality.' The clothing company has a tab on their website dedicated to political activism and they offer a stance on gay rights and immigration reform. 'As a company, we

Summary: American Apparel this week has begun photo-shopping out some of the models' exposed nipples and body hair making them look like mannequins . Former CEO Dov Charney was fired after some employees claimed he had sexually harassed them .

Carol Robertson, a golf coach at Virginia Tech University sunk two holes-in-one within the span of three holes on March 9 in Orlando, Florida . A Virginia Tech University golf coach accomplished a golf feat that is so rare, she was just as likely to win the lottery. Carol Robertson, 30, sank two holes-in-one in the space of three holes on March 9. Her successful game of golf came during a practice round at Celebration Golf Club near Orlando, Florida, while the university was on spring break. The odds of sinking two holes-in-one in the same round are 67million-to-one, according to PGA.com. But US Hole in One, estimated the odds of sinking aces on consecutive par-three holes at nearly 156,250,000 to one, according to the Washington Post. That's roughly the same odds as winning the Powerball lottery. The first hole in one came on the third hole, a 159-yard par-three. The second was on hole five, a 161-yard par-three. Before the fifth hole, she joked that she plays 'par threes pretty fast' and she she'd 'just go ahead and make a one on this one, too', according to the Washington Post. And then she did. 'I just kind of dropped my club and hit the ground,' Robertson said. 'Everybody's just high-fiving, getting their cameras out, taking pictures.' Robertson, who had five previous aces, sunk holes-in-one on the third and fifth holes of Celebration Golf Club during a practice round of golf . The odds of sinking aces on consecutive par-three holes is nearly 156,250,000 to one. Winning the lottery has about the same odds . The ball landed to the left when it hit the putting green, but it began to roll and headed right for the hole. And then it sunk. 'It was like slow motion, watching that one go in,' Robertson told Washington Post. 'We couldn't believe it. I fell over. I was sitting there thinking, "is this really happening?"' Robertson, who had five previous aces, was reportedly playing the round with assistant coach Russell Abbott and Virginia Tech redshirt players Amanda Hollandsworth and Allison Woodward. 'The girls on my team were so excited and everyone I know in golf has been sending congratulations,' she said. 'We went out for a nice dinner but I dodged the tradition of buying everyone a drink because my team isn't allowed to drink per college sports rules and they aren't 21. Anywhere else I'd be bankrupt.'

Listeriosis, a food-borne illness, linked to some Blue Bell ice cream products did not cause the deaths of three hospital patients, but it may have been a contributing factor, according to Kansas health officials. However, the only information provided about the patients at Via Christi St. Francis hospital in Wichita, Kansas, is that they were adults, said Sara Belfry, a spokeswoman for the Kansas Department of Health and Environment. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration said five people, three women and two men, developed listeriosis in Kansas after eating products from one production line at the Blue Bell creamery in Brenham, Texas. Officials have not released their names, and the CDC did not specify the gender of those patients who died. The deaths prompted the Texas icon's first product recall in its 108-year history.

Listeriosis, a food-borne illness linked to some Blue Bell ice cream products did not cause the deaths of three hospital patients, but it may have been a contributing factor, according to Kansas health officials. The deaths prompted the Texas icon's first product recall in its 108-year history . Listeria bacteria were found in samples of Blue Bell Chocolate Chip Country Cookies, Great Divide Bars, Sour Pop Green Apple Bars, Cotton Candy Bars, Scoops, Vanilla Stick Slices, Almond Bars and No Sugar Added Mooo Bars, said the FDA (above the Blue Bell products that had listeria bacteria found in them) Listeria bacteria were found in samples of Blue Bell Chocolate Chip Country Cookies, Great Divide Bars, Sour Pop Green Apple Bars, Cotton Candy Bars, Scoops, Vanilla Stick Slices, Almond Bars and No Sugar Added Mooo Bars, said the FDA. Blue Bell said its regular Moo Bars were untainted, as were its half gallons, quarts, pints, cups, three-gallon ice cream and take-home frozen snack novelties. It also said it has recovered all recalled products that were in stores and in storage. The five patients became ill with listeriosis during their hospitalizations for unrelated causes between December 2013 and January 2015, said hospital spokeswoman Maria Loving. According to a statement on Friday from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, all five of the people sickened were receiving treatment for unrelated health issues at the same Kansas hospital before developing listeriosis, 'a finding that strongly suggests their infections (with listeria bacteria) were acquired in the hospital,' the CDC said. However, uncertainty remains as to where the patients acquired bacterial infection. Blue Bell said its regular Moo Bars were untainted, as were its half gallons, quarts, pints, cups, three-gallon ice cream and take-home frozen snack novelties (above the No Sugar Added Mooo Bars that have been recalled) There appeared to be some uncertainty as to where the patients acquired the listeria bacterial infection (above the Almond Bars which have had traces of listeria bacteria found in them) 'Via Christi was not aware of any listeria contamination in the Blue Bell Creameries ice cream products and immediately removed all Blue Bell Creameries products from all Via Christi locations once the potential contamination was discovered,' Loving said in

Summary: Kansas health officials said listeriosis was not cause but a contributing factor in the three deaths of patients at Via Christi St Francis hospital . Five people in total developed listeriosis in Kansas after eating products from the production line at Blue Bell creamery in Brenham, Texas . Contamination has been traced to a machine that extrudes the ice cream into forms and onto cookies, which remains off line .

A teenager took pictures of a schoolgirl as she was raped by a friend of an Asian restaurant owner Mohammed Khubaib (pictured), it has been claimed . A teenager took pictures of a schoolgirl as she was raped by a friend of an Asian restaurant owner who allegedly groomed young girls for sex, a court heard. The alleged victim had just turned 16 when she was photographed having sex with Manase Motaung, 32, at a drinking session in Peterborough. Motaung has been accused along with businessman Mohammed Khubaib, 43, of raping and trafficking young girls as young as 12. A friend of the 16-year-old girl, who cannot be named, said she was not concerned after seeing the girl have sex with Motaung and took three photographs on her mobile phone. She even sent one picture to her sister, a jury at the Old Bailey heard. But her 'distraught' friend has claimed she was so drunk she had no memory of the alleged attack and it was only as the months passed that she started to have 'flashbacks' of what happened. She insisted she would never willingly have sex with the two 'vile men' when questioned by defence barrister, Karim Khalil QC. Cross-examining the alleged victim's friend, Mr Khalil said: 'You took a picture, the flash goes off. [She] realised you had taken a photo and was not happy about that. 'The two go upstairs and you send the photo to your sister. It was a big joke.' The witness agreed she believed her friend had consented to sex with Motaung, who denies rape. Letting agent Khubaib, who also owned Peterborough's 'Zaika' restaurant, is accused of grooming young girls to be used for sex by him and his friends. The prosecution allege he enticed vulnerable girls as young as 12 into spending time with him by giving them cash, tobacco, McDonald's meals and even flowers. Pakistani-born Khubaib who owns Peterborough restaurant Zaika (pictured), is accused of driving the vulnerable girls to properties around Cambridgeshire where they were plied with alcohol . The court heard Khubaib (pictured) bought one girl a £40 bunch of flowers for her 15th birthday . Khubaib allegedly drove the youngsters to properties around Cambridgeshire where they were plied with booze. The girls would then be used for the sexual pleasure and satisfaction of himself and any other adult who was with him, it is claimed. Khubaib from Peterborough has denied 11 counts of trafficking for sexual exploitation, and one count of rape. Motaung, also from Peterborough, has denied seven counts of trafficking a child for sexual exploitation and one charge of rape. The offences were allegedly committed between 2007 and 2013. Khubaib was arrested alongside Motaung, known as 'Naz' and a 27-year-old friend at a house in Peterborough on 27 January, 2013. The men had been giving vodka to two 14-year-old girls in an upstairs bedroom and were playing videos, which appeared to contain 'porn-style scenes', jurors heard at an earlier hearing. The court heard it was the third time that week that Khubaib had been caught in the

Marine biologist Forrest Galante has swam with some of the most fearsome creatures in the sea, including the terrifying hammerhead. But now he has hitched a ride on the whale shark, which can grow to more than 44ft long. However, despite its massive size, the whale shark is a filter feeder, devouring tonnes of plankton as it swims though warm parts of the ocean. Despite the mammoth size of the whale shark, Galante said he had no fears about diving with the creatures, which can live to between 70 and 100 years old in the wild. Forrest Galante was helping marine biologists study the giant whale shark off the coast of . Galante and his team were measuring the giant whales who were returning to the secret Mexican location . Whale sharks can grow as long as 44ft but are not a danger to humans as they favor plankton . My turn: Galante's girlfriend poses on the water with the huge beast right beside her . He said: 'Not at all, they are gentle giants. I was helping out a team of marine biologists conduct a survey on whale shark population estimates, to identify returning sharks year on year and to see growth rates of individuals. 'We were out for three days on the whole and it was on the first evening that I was able to have such an amazing interaction with the largest shark.' The project is taking place at a secret location off the coast of Mexico. Galante has appeared on several reality TV survival-style shows in the United States. He added: 'I have previously been in the water with the hammerhead along with various other sharks. 'As my passion and job revolves around amazing wildlife, I continue to seek encounters (both in the water and out) with all the most fantastic creatures I can.' Unlike species such as the great white and tiger shark, the whale shark is very docile in the water and filters its food. Biologists do not know why the whale shark has any teeth as it does not use them for feeding, although they are thought to have evolved more than 90 million years ago. Galante and his team were measuring the returning whale sharks to see how they had grown over a year . When asked about swimming with the massive sharks, Galante said they were 'gentle giants' Gallante has appeared on several reality television survival-style shows in the United States .

Benjamin Netanyahu has received support in the form of action movie star Chuck Norris, who claims the Israeli leader's re-election is crucial for the safety of the country. In a short YouTube video called Please Vote For Prime Minister Netanyahu, Norris, 75, said: 'I watched Prime Minister Netanyahu's speech before Congress, and I saw a man who loves his country with all his heart and soul. I also saw a strong leader that is absolutely crucial for the safety of the Israeli people. 'I have done three movies in Israel – 'Delta Force' being my favorite – and I formed many friendships while there. You have an incredible country, and we want to keep it that way. 'You have an incredible country, and we want to keep it that way': Chuck Norris, 75, has made an intervention into the Israeli election, calling on Benjamin Netanyahu to be re-elected . 'Courage and vision': Norris believes that Netanyahu is the leader who can stand up against the 'evil forces' threatening both Israel and the United States . 'That's why it is so important that you keep a leader who has the courage and vision to stand up against the evil forces that are threatening not only Israel but also the United States. 'You see, we, the American people, need Prime Minister Netanyahu as much as you do. Weak leadership can destroy your country and then the evil forces can concentrate on America, too. 'So I ask you, please, for the sake of Israel and the whole Middle East, vote for Prime Minister Netanyahu on Election Day. 'And as far as those in the U.S. and the rest of the world, in this season of Easter, it's good to remember what the Hebrew Scriptures say about Israel and those who support her: "Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: May they prosper who love you" (Psalm 122:1).' Norris, star of Way of the Dragon, Walker, Texas Ranger; and the subject of countless internet memes and jokes, backed Mr Netanyahu during the last Israeli election. He is also not the only Hollywood star to lend his support to Mr Netanyahu. Jon Voight, the Oscar winner and father of Angelina Jolie, released a video last week voicing his support as well as his disdain for Barack Obama, saying 'President Obama does not love Israel'. He follows this up by saying: 'His whole agenda is to control Israel. In this way, he can be friends with all of Israel’s enemies.' He further says in the Just Jared video: 'He [Obama] doesn’t want Bibi Netanyahu to win this upcoming election. America has not been the same since his presidency. I beg all of you to understand the truth.' Mr Netanyahu meanwhile reiterated an appeal to hard-liners, posting on his Facebook page that high Arab voter turnout was endangering his right-wing party's dominance. 'Arab voters are going to the polls in droves. Left wing organizations are bringing them in buses,' he said. He also called on supporters to vote for him to 'narrow the gap' between Likud and the Zionist Union.

Summary: Action hero says Netanyahu is the 'strong leader' Israel needs . Intervention follows that of Angelina Jolie's father Jon Voight . Polling stations opened today for Israel's second snap general election . Experts agree it's likely to be a referendum on the Netanyahu years .


A weekend report claiming that a top adviser to President Barack Obama leaked to the press that the political heavyweight and fellow Democrat Hillary Clinton was using a personal email address during her time as Secretary of State is 'baloney,' the White House said Monday. The New York Post on Saturday claimed that Valerie Jarrett, a close confidant of both the president and First Lady Michelle Obama, divulged details of the story to the press through outside sources hoping it would not trace back to the White House. The bad press was reportedly timed to become public just as Clinton was planning to announce her candidacy for president. White House spokesman Josh Earnest indicated to reporters on Monday that the report wasn't true, though. Scroll down for video . A new report claims that it was a member of Hillary Clinton's (above) own party leaked to the press that the political heavyweight and likely presidential candidate was using a personal email address during her time as Secretary of State . Valerie Jarrett (left), one of President Barack Obama's (right) top advisers, reportedly leaked details of the story to the press through outside sources hoping it would not trace back to the White House . The story ran in the New York Post and was written by Ed Klein, who spoke last Wednesday about his belief Jarrett was involved on Fox and Friends . ‘It's utter baloney,' he said after a reporter asked him about the rumor at his regular briefing with the press. He did not comment further on the matter. According to the New York Post article, authored by Edward Klein, a source close to the White House disclosed that 'Obama and Valerie Jarrett will go to any lengths to prevent Hillary from becoming president.' 'They believe that Hillary, like her husband, is left of center, not a true-blue liberal.' Sources claim that the long rumored tension between Obama and the Clintons hit a high when during the midterm elections many members of the Democrat Party refused to be seen campaigning with President Obama. Jarrett is reported to have commented that the defections were linked to the Clintons, who she believed had begun 'marginalizing the president' and were 'trying to wrestle control of the Democratic Party away from Obama.' She reportedly went out of her way to exact revenge, working to get Monica Lewinsky high-profile press opportunities and frequently complaining about the Clintons. Then, shortly after the midterm elections, she, the president and the first lady, reportedly sat down with Clinton and told her in no uncertain terms that they planned on remaining neutral during the presidential primary should she run for president. This as Jarrett is reported to have been speaking to Martin O’Malley, the former governor of Maryland, and Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts about possibly running in the 2016 election. 'She’s promised O’Malley and Warren the full support of the White House if they will challenge Hillary for the presidential nomination,' a source who spoke to Klein allegedly said. Jarrett has reportedly been speaking to Martin O’Malley (above),

A startling video has emerged showing an officer putting his hand around a woman's throat then forcing her to the floor at a Massachusetts police station. The footage, taken in February 2013, was released this week following a $1 million federal lawsuit filed by the woman, Maylene Maldonado, against the Chicopee police officer, Daniel Major. Major has resigned from the department, WCVB reported. The footage shows him and two other officers restraining Maldonado, who was arrested for allegedly slapping a police officer after she admitted to drinking and smoking PCP, Mlive reported. In the video, the then-24-year-old repeatedly tells the officers that her lip ring is giving her pain and asks them to help her remove it. Arrest: Maylene Maldonado can be seen screaming as she is taken into custody in February 2013 . Attack: One of the officers, Sergeant Daniel Major, then abruptly grabs her neck and holds on . But as she continues to scream, Major suddenly grabs her around the neck and continues to hold on as his fellow officers do nothing. Then they all pull the woman to the ground. While on the floor, Major shouts: 'Shut the f*** up!' Maldonado was charged with resisting arrest and assault and battery on a police officer. In her lawsuit, which also names the other officers, Maldonado has accused the officers of assault and battery and civil rights violations, and accuses the city of failing to properly train its officers. She also claims she never received medical treatment for the injuries she allegedly sustained. Maldonado, from Springfield, was arrested after her friend's car got stuck in a snowbank in Chicopee and officers, who were called to the area following reports about a man with a knife, saw her running to a nearby gas station and went to check on her. She admitted to drinking and smoking the hallucinogenic drug PCP and then got into an altercation with police officers when they tried to see her license. Holding on: She struggles as Major holds on to her neck - while the other officers stand back and do nothing . 'Attack': The officers then push Maldonado to the ground, where Major says: 'Shut the f*** up' She slapped an officer across the face and apologized, according to the criminal complaint, but was arrested and taken to the police station where the alleged assault unfolded. The case has also caused divisions within the department. Thomas Charette, the acting chief at the time of the 2013 incident, defended Major's actions as appropriate because Maldonado was high on PCP and allegedly spat blood during her arrest. 'Sergeant Major made several attempts to speak softly and calmly with Ms. Maldonado in order to calm her and complete the booking process,' Charette said, according to WHDH. 'However, she was either unwilling or unable to understand simple instructions and kept insisting that Sergeant Major repeat himself.' An internal police review determined he had 'acted admirably', Mlive reported, and a clerk-magistrate's hearing agreed. A district court judge reviewed the recording and he was charged with assault and battery in November

Summary: Maylene Maldonado was arrested in Chicopee, Massachusetts in February 2013 after slapping a police officer and admitting to taking drugs . As she was being booked, she screamed at officers that she was in pain and one suddenly grabbed her by the throat and pushed her to the floor . The other officers stood back and did nothing . Officer Daniel Major was accused of assault but an internal investigation found he did nothing wrong - which the new police chief disputes . Maldonado has now filed a $1m lawsuit against Major, other officers and the city and police shared the never-before-released video this week .


Mike Fellows, head of Birmingham County FA, confirmed the allegations, and said any players found guilty will face serious consequences . A Christian football team has been forced to fold after players were accused of singing 'We're racist and that's the way we like it' in a changing room while a black referee was nearby. Pye Green Towers Football Club have disbanded after they were allegedly caught singing the chant, the same one the Chelsea supporters were recorded shouting on the Paris Metro last month. The players are said to have begun the chant while in the changing rooms of Eramus Darwin Academy in Burntwood, Stafforshire, while a black referee was getting changed next door. The official was so shaken by the incident that he called for a league official to provide support during the West Midlands Christian League match against Selly Oak Methodists last month. The Methodists won 3-1 but the result has since been declared as void. Last month Chelsea supporters were filmed in Paris, where their team were playing Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League, bellowing the same song, while stopping a black man from boarding a busy Metro train. Birmingham County FA yesterday confirmed the accusations, which flies in the face of the league's mission statement. The league was formed in 1979 'to enable Christian and non-Christian men alike to participate in a capably organised league in a manner, both on and off the field of play, that is morally, decently and ethically sound of action and speech and is honouring to the name of Jesus Christ'. Birmingham County FA discipline manager Mike Fellows said individuals found guilty of racism will face serious consequences. Any fine imposed will be divided up among individual players and club officials. Mr Fellows, an experienced referee himself, said: 'Incidents such as the one alleged here will not be tolerated, they will not be tolerated at all. 'They have no place in the game or our society. We have witnessed a rise in race and gender-related complaints. 'That does not mean more are taking place, it means individuals have more confidence in the way we tackle the issue and are coming forward. 'We will continue to prove that confidence is justified by hitting culprits hard, very hard indeed.' On its website, the league wrote: 'Following discussions between the League and Pye Green Towers, we can confirm that they have left the League with immediate effect. Pye Green Towers Football Club, which has historic associations with Pye Green Christian Centre (pictured), has now left the West Midlands Christian League . 'All League records will be expunged for this season regarding Division Two matches that they played in. Fixtures and league tables have already been adjusted accordingly.' League secretary Neil Kovacs said: 'I spoke to the club and they did agree that it was not acceptable. From a Christian point of view, it has no place in football and no place in society. 'We both agreed that the club's position in the league was untenable. They immediately folded the club. They made that decision.' The

Summary: Players alleged to have chanted 'we're racist and that's the way we like it' Birmingham County FA boss says men could face serious consequences . League set up to encourage sport 'honouring to the name of Jesus Christ' Chelsea fans were filmed using the same chant in Paris Metro last month .
