A man shot on the US-Canada border in Washington state was in the country illegally and wanted in connection with a murder, according to officials. The man, later identified as Jamison Childress, 20, was approached by two border agents after setting off ground sensors when crossing the border on Thursday afternoon, according to US Customs and Border Protection. He displayed 'erratic and threatening' behavior toward the agents and sprayed one of them with an incapacitating spray, the agency said. One of the agents then shot the man in the head and killed him about 300 yards from the border near Sumas, Washington. Scroll down for video . A man, later identified as Jamison Childress, 20, was shot near the US-Canada border (pictured) after 'erratic and threatening' behavior . Border authorities did not release the man's identity, which was later confirmed by a local medical examiner. He is thought to be from British Columbia. Whatcom County Sheriff Bill Elfo said that he was wanted in connection to a murder. Childress was set to stand trial for 2013 assault and mischief charges on Tuesday in Prince George, British Columbia, according to the Abbotsford BC News. He was also set to face charges for theft later this year. It was not clear where the murder he is connected to took place. Lawyer Michael Reed represented Childress previously and said that he was surprised by news of a murder charge, The Canadian Press reported. Reed expressed 'disbelief' about the incident. 'People cross the international border to bring crime and violence to our communities,' said at a news conference. The agent who was sprayed with the chemical required medical attention but was not seriously hurt, the agency said. The incident occurred at the small border crossing of Sumas, about 100 miles north of Seattle, Washington . Both agents involved in the incident, who have served 10 and 19 years, were placed on administrative leave. They were not identified Friday. A multiagency task force, including the sheriff's office, will investigate the shooting, which occurred shortly after 2.30 p.m. on Thursday. Sumas is about 100 miles north of Seattle. Officials released few details at the news conference, saying the investigation was in the early stages. They declined to release other details about the dead man. 'We have not confirmed his citizenship,' Elfo said, though the man was confirmed to have entered the US from Canada. 'It was apparent he was erratic and aggressively approached the agents,' he said. A hatchet was found in the man's backpack, but it was not displayed at the agents. One agent's face was burned by the spray, which Elfo did not identify. Previous media reports wrongly identified the dead man as Daniel Paul, 42, who is wanted for the murder of his girlfriend in Vancouver. He is still at large.

A heroic jogger sprang into action to free a mouflon trapped to a tree by its horns. Filmed in Poland, the video captures Krystof Wlodarczyk out on his morning run through the woods near Konin. He encounters the animal – a subspecies group of the wild sheep – struggling to free itself from a small branch.

Mr Wlodarczyk then leans out to hold onto the top of the branch and begins breaking it, while keeping a safe distance from the distressed animal.

After more struggling, Mr Wlodarczyk finally has a grip on the mouflon’s horn and begins prising it from the branch. Krystof Wlodarczyk breaks the branch in two pieces but the wild sheep continues to run in a circle . But the panicked animal makes the job harder by continuing to fight against the man by running in a circle.

Holding onto the branch, the jogger reaches out and grabs hold of the mouflon's horn to attempt to set it free . Discussing the incident, Mr Wlodarczyk said: ‘I was not afraid, I've seen it often here in the forest. ‘This is the first time I encountered one at such a short distance. The poor thing was desperately trying to break free. It wasn't easy but I was glad I could get it out of there.’ He added: ‘He [the mouflon] stopped on a hill, and we measured for a few seconds, amazing. I think it was its way of saying thank you.’ Success! Krystof Wlodarczyk throws his hands up in the air and shouts 'yes' as the animal is freed .

Britain's loudest manhole cover bangs and screeches every time a car drives over it, but the council and utilities company are at odds over who should repair it. The faulty cover, by the side of busy roundabout in Horsham, West Sussex, has been causing havoc for nearby residents, since it came loose in November last year. Ruth McGeown, who can hear the constant banging from her home, first contacted West Sussex County Council about the issue in mid-January. Scroll down for video .

The council refused to fix the cover, saying it belonged to Southern Water. But the utilities company claim the responsibility to fix the drain belongs to the local council. Miss McGeown said: 'I understand there's a level of bureaucracy in these sort of things but I just feel that both sides, Southern Water and the council, knew what the problem was but nobody was prepared to take responsibility for it.' She added Southern Water had taken more than two weeks to fix a different drain in the same road - and then told her it was the county council who were responsible for the repair. The council then passed it back to Southern Water, who passed it back to the council. The faulty cover has been causing havoc for nearby residents, since it came loose in November last year . Another resident David Davis described the noise as 'piercing', adding it was a 'low level annoyance, but an annoyance nonetheless'. The father-of-two added: 'This is driving us crazy.

From rations to ready meals, Britain’s kitchen cupboards have held the secrets of how we eat over the decades. And in just two and a half months last summer one family of five munched their way from the post-war era to modern times to reveal how dramatically things have changed. The Robshaws found the 1950s wholegrain National Loaf particularly hard to stomach, and ten-year-old Fred was overjoyed when sweets came off the ration. The Robshaw family took on a culinary challenge to eat as a family would have in each decade from the 1950s to the 1990s. Pictured (from left) Rosalind, mother Rochelle, Fred, father Brandon and Miranda 'in the 1950s' Forty years later, the Robshaws found themselves eating in the Nineties, sampling such delights as homemade pasta. 'Within living memory, the way we eat has been utterly transformed,' remarked Mr Robshaw . The experiment, filmed for a six-part TV programme, ended with the family feeling extremely grateful for the variety of foods available today. Back In Time For Dinner, which starts on BBC2 next Tuesday, follows the Robshaws – Brandon, 53, Rochelle, 52, and their children Miranda, 17, Rosalind, 15 and Fred – from the 1950s to the end of the millennium, with the final episode casting an eye towards the future of food. In the 1950s the children had to wait patiently for their father to finish his dinner, knowing his leftovers would be their supper. The 1960s saw the birth of the sugary cereal, while motorway service stations became almost fashionable as places to eat. Vesta convenience meals were available and the more adventurous home cooks could buy exotic foreign ingredients such as garlic and olive oil – from the chemist. Baking supremo Mary Berry teaches the Robshaws how to make a cake as it would have been done in the 1950s (pictured) for the six-part TV programme 'Back In Time For Dinner', which airs on BBC next Tuesday . The Hairy Bikers' Dave Myers pictured with the Robshaw family as they sample the food of the Sixties . In the early 1950s, families ate bread - often the rationed 'National loaf' - and left-over roasted meat fat aka 'dripping' for breakfast (left), before Cornflakes (right) made their first appearance in the UK in the 1960s . In the 1970s, working women were learning to balance their careers with cooking for the family. The decade also saw the rise of the Pot Noodle. In the 1980s goats cheese, mange tout and kiwi fruit became the foods to impress your dinner party guests. Gourmet dishes and nouvelle cuisine took over from the simple but hearty dishes of earlier decades. By the 1990s, sushi and curry were as popular as traditional English dishes and ready meals became the norm. The programme also shows how fridges, freezers, microwaves and even televisions revolutionised the way the country ate, and how the rise of supermarkets changed shopping forever. The Robshaws found that food in the 1970s was brightly-coloured - but perhaps less enticing - than before . Families began to get a taste for

Neng Moua, 43, stormed a medical office near Mariposa and S Street in Downtown Fresno on Tuesday morning and starting arguing with a 33-year-old female employee, Fresno police said.

The Brisbane apartment where Marcus Volke murdered his transgender wife, dismembered her body and cooked her remains is now on the rental market. Volke killed his Indonesian wife and sex worker, Mayang Prasetyo, in October last year in their apartment on Commercial Road in Teneriffe in Brisbane's inner-city. The brutal crime ended with Volke - who was a male escort - taking his own life in a nearby industrial bin. Scroll down for video . This eerie photo features the stove top used by Marcus Volke to boil the remains of Mayang Prasetyo's body . The couple met Melbourne brothel Pleasure Dome while they were both working as escorts in 2009 . The property was listed online in late February as a ‘fully furnished apartment’ looking to fetch $500 a week for rent. The advertisement has since been removed however it is still believed to be available upon private inquiry. Four other apartments in the complex are currently being advertised. Eerie photos of the apartment feature a shot of the stove Mr Volke used to boil the remains of his deceased partner. Properties like Volke’s that have an unsavoury past are more commonly referred to as ‘stigmatised properties’. The apartment on Commercial Road in Teneriffe in Brisbane's inner-city has four other apartments on the market . Queensland Police removed a toxic-labelled container following the discovery of Ms Prasetyo's body parts found boiling in chemicals in a Brisbane apartment . If these walls could talk: As the apartment was the site of a brutal murder it is classed as a stigmatised property . Properties are considered stigmatised if a murder, suicide, death from natural causes, violent crime or drug related offence took place on the property. It can even be considered stigmatised if the previous owners believed the house was haunted. While real estate agents are not obligated to advertise events that have occurred in the property, they must disclose the information to interested parties. Stigmatised: The real estate agent was asking for around $500 for the 'fully furnished' apartment . This isn’t the first property in recent times to come on the market with a dark past. In Sydney’s Hyde Park, the luxurious apartment where Simon Gittany murdered his fiancé Lisa Harnam failed to sell despite expectations it would be picked up for more than $2 million dollars. Emergency services remove her body from the DoubleOne 3 Apartments in Commercial Road . The remains of Ms Prasetyo were found cooking inside a Teneriffe apartment - in Brisbane's inner-city - in Ocrober of last year. Volke fled the scene when police showed up at the couple's home and was later found with his throat slashed and a knife in an industrial bin nearby. Anyone seeking support and information about suicide prevention can contact Lifeline on 13 11 14 or Suicide Call Back Service on 1300 659 467.

Summary: The apartment Mayang Prasetyo was dismembered in is now on the market . The furnished property was advertised online for $500 per week . The ad has been removed but the apartment is still up for rent . The transgender prostitute was discovered dismembered in her Brisbane apartment last October .

In reality, Dick Advocaat has six games to save Sunderland's season and his own proud record of never having been relegated. For you can as good as write off the last two matches of this desperate campaign, trips to Arsenal and Chelsea. Sunderland have not won away in 2015 and there is no evidence to suggest they will start to do so at the home of top-four opponents. Sunderland interim manager Dick Advocaat has said his side will play 'ugly' football if they need to . Advocaat's Sunderland debut was marred by a 1-0 defeat at West Ham thanks to Diafra Sakho's late goal . West Ham striker Nene (left) jumps for the ball alongside Sunderland defender Patrick van Aanholt (right) Advocaat set out with beautiful intent at West Ham, naming three strikers having 24 hours earlier rubbished mention of his defensive reputation — but things have very quickly got ugly. 'The only important thing in the final games is winning,' said the 67-year-old, whose Premier League debut ended in defeat when Diafra Sakho struck two minutes from time. 'The way we do that is not important. So if we win games very ugly I like that. We will play very negative if the need is there.' Advocaat has given his players the early part of the week off, an agreed rest period which is the legacy of Gus Poyet's ill-fated reign. The Dutchman joked that the club don't have too many international players so their preparations for the visit of North-East rivals Newcastle a week on Sunday will not be disrupted. That, you feel, is a match Sunderland must now win. By a quirk of footballing fate, previous bosses Paolo Di Canio and Poyet both enjoyed derby victories in their second match in charge. Sunderland winger Adam Johnson prepares to strike the ball after coming on as a substitute on Saturday . For Advocaat, it is arguably his most winnable game of the eight remaining. Defeat is not an option. 'Being at home in derbies gives a big advantage,' he added. 'I know the intensity of these games — I was involved many times in Rangers against Celtic. 'I made the mistake of perhaps not realising that at first and I lost 5-1. 'But Newcastle for us now is the most important thing. We have a good period to practise and I think the (international) break is a good thing. I have time now to see what my best line-up will be.' Hammers boss Sam Allardyce, meanwhile, has been linked with the Sunderland post at the end of the season. He, however, wants a new deal at Upton Park after seeing his side climb to ninth. 'I don't know why people have speculated about me and Sunderland,' he said. 'I'm doing what I did here in my second year, my contract was running out then. 'At the end of the season we will look at the squad. We have to get more players in to build the club and make sure we sustain the growth we are achieving at this point

Smiling for the camera, this photograph depicts one of the happiest moments of Rachel Inglefield's life . The moment she arrived home with her new baby for the first time. But the elated new mother had no idea of the tragedy that would befall her just days later. Crippled by a devastating stroke, Mrs Inglefield was left paralysed, unable to cuddle her newborn son or help care for her young daughter. At the age of just 38 she woke up away from her children on a specialist stroke ward, where she was the youngest patient being treated. But it was the thought of looking after her new baby Jamie, and his big sister Serena, who was 16-months-old at the time, that gave her the motivation to get better. Scroll down for video . In this photograph, Rachel Inglefield had just brought her new baby son Jamie home from hospital, where he was enjoying time with sister Serena. An hour later, Mrs Inglefield suffered a stroke that left her paralysed . Mrs Inglefield spent ten days on a specialist stroke ward, and said the motivation to care for her children inspired her to recover. She is pictured with son Jamie, now three years old . Rachel and her daughter Serena learned to walk together - including reaching their milestone walk to the post box outside their home . She began the long road to recovery, eventually re-learning to walk at the same time as her daughter took her first few steps. Mrs Inglefield, now 41, said: 'It was comical in a way; we both took our first wobbly steps across the living room. 'We held onto each other, walking to the post box, at the end of the road. It was a huge milestone for us both.' To celebrate her recovery, Mrs Inglefield together with Serena and her husband, Ed, completed a half mile walk to raise money for stroke charities. Her stroke has proved the catalyst for reassessing their lifestyle, and they have now given up their high-flying jobs in London and relocated to the sleepy village of Ogbourne St George in Wiltshire. Mrs Inglefield, a PR executive, said: 'I expected my son's birth to be one of the most joyful occasions of my life. The last thing I expected was a life-threatening stroke. During pregnancy, the levels of female hormones rise, causing changes in the blood vessels and the make-up of the blood. During pregnancy the blood pressure can also rise. These changes can increase the risk of stroke. Pregnant women are 13 times more likely to have a stroke than non-pregnant women of the same age. However the risk of stroke in young women is small and strokes caused by pregnancy and childbirth are rare. It has been estimated that a stroke during pregnancy affects eight out of every 100,000 women. Research has shown that the risk of stroke is increased in the last three months of pregnancy and in the six weeks following birth. If you are pregnant and have existing high blood pressure or symptoms of blood vessel

Summary: At 38 years old Rachel Inglefield had just given birth to her son Jamie . Afterwards she had a headache which doctors put down to constipation . At home, she felt a painful 'click' in her head and was violently sick . She had suffered a stroke and was rushed to a specialist ward in hospital . Was discharged 10 days later but couldn't move the left side of her body . Re-learned to walk at the same time as her daughter took her first steps .


Mother and daughter Wendy Perry (right) and Nicola Manson-Perry (left) swindled nearly £50,000 in identical disability benefit scams but have escaped jail . A mother and daughter who swindled nearly £50,000 in identical disability benefit scams have escaped jail. Wendy Perry, 66, pocketed £28,500 of taxpayers' cash over a five-year period while employed as a medical secretary for the NHS, Wolverhampton Crown Court was told. At the same time her daughter Nicola Manson-Perry collected £20,404 while working as a hospital accounts clerk in a carbon copy fraud, which lasted nine years. The pair had denied charges of benefit fraud but were found guilty by juries in two separate trials in February. Both Perry and Manson-Perry received the Disability Living Allowance (DLA) payouts after claiming they could hardly walk unaided, the court was told. Perry, who worked for Sandwell General Hospital in West Bromwich, claimed she had to hold on to a wall for balance to ensure she didn't fall. She also claimed she had difficulty communicating and filling in forms, and even increased the pay out by stating she needed constant care both day and night. But she was rumbled when Department of Work and Pensions (DWP) investigators spent four days secretly filming her walking to her car at a hospital in April 2013. The clear footage shows Perry, who even parked in a disabled bay, strolling to her vehicle quickly without any aids and with no sign of a limp. Manson-Perry (left) collected £20,404 while working as a hospital accounts clerk. Perry (right), 66, pocketed £28,500 of taxpayers' cash over a five-year period while employed as a medical secretary for the NHS . Investigators then widened their probe to include her daughter and it was discovered Manson-Perry, who is married without children, was also picking up DLA payouts. The 48-year-old, who has worked for the NHS since 2004 as a £22,000-a-year accounts clerk, was claiming it took her ten minutes to walk two metres. Both women were arrested by police at the home they share in Wednesbury, West Midlands, on August 21, 2013. Joseph Millington, defending Perry, said Manson-Perry had now been sacked from Birmingham's City Hospital and her mother expected the same fate. Perry was handed a nine-month jail sentence, suspended for 12 months, on Friday. Her daughter was given a 34-week sentence, suspended for two years, last month. Perry was filmed walking briskly to her car by Department of Work and Pensions (DWP) investigators . The clear footage shows Perry, who even parked in a disabled bay, strolling to her vehicle quickly without any aids and with no sign of a limp . Recorder Julian Taylor showed sympathy with the mother, who has worked for the NHS since 1995, because 'life had dealt her a bad hand' and she had a long history of health problems. He said: 'This offending does cross the custody threshold but she is sitting here staring at me and I want her to know she will not be going to prison today.' Judge Robin Onions, sentencing Manson-Perry, told her: 'At some stage your mobility

Summary: Wendy Perry and Nicola Manson-Perry said they could not walk unaided . 66-year-old wrongly claimed disability living allowance for five years . Her 48-year-old daughter Manson-Perry did the same for nine years . Both given suspended sentences at Wolverhampton Crown Court .


Dolphins are said to have many human-like social traits; including the predilection for recreational drugs it seems.

Though large doses of a puffer's neurotoxinthe can be deadly - 100 times more potent than cyanide - in small amounts it is known to produce a narcotic effect. To release the substance, the bottlenose dolphins were caught chasing the pufferfish along the ocean floor. In a bid to escape attack, footage shows the fish quickly inflating into a ball shape. The playful dolphins then grab the puffer between their teeth and pass it around until it eventually lets out a burst of poison. A brown-colored cloud is seen dispersing and diluting in the water. As the dolphins drift off into their own world, the weary pufferfish seizes the chance to deflate and slip away into the deep blue. Getting in on the act: Though large doses of a puffer's neurotoxinthe can be deadly - 100 times more potent than cyanide - in small amounts it is known to produce a narcotic effect . The footage, from Dolphins: Spy in the Pod, was taken by wildlife filmmaker John Downer - who has previously used hidden cameras to bring the secrets of penguin colonies to television screens. Downer designed underwater cameras disguised as squid, tuna and even other dolphins. Zoologist and series producer Rob Pilley said that it was the first time dolphins had been filmed behaving this way. He added: 'We saw the dolphins handle the puffers with kid gloves, very gently and delicately like they were almost milking them to not upset the fish too much or kill it. 'As a result the fish released various toxins as a defense. The dolphins then seemed to be mesmerized.' He insisted that the scene couldn't have been a one-off encounter, saying: 'The dolphins were specifically going for the puffers and deliberately handling them with care.' The series, which aired on the Discovery Channel on Saturday, follows the success of Penguins: Spy In the Huddle, which used similar tactics of disguised cameras, documentary producer Downer was eager to create a range of cameras disguised as sea creatures to

Twitter is reportedly looking at ways to make money by selling people's tweets to other companies. These firms, known as 'data miners', would use the content in the tweets to personalise services from advertisers and marketers online, as well as in the real world. In an interview with The Guardian, Twitter’s data strategy chief Chris Moody said the data could also be used by police to gauge the mood of a football crowd, for example. Twitter is reportedly looking at ways to make money by selling people's tweets to companies. These so-called 'data miners' would use content to personalise services. Twitter’s data strategy chief Chris Moody (pictured) said the data could also be used by police to gauge the mood of a football crowd, for example . Many websites and services already sell data to third-parties in this way, but Mr Moody wants to expand its potential. He gave one example of a grandparent travelling on a plane to see their newborn grandson. The airline would know of their impending trip from their tweets and when they arrive they would greet the user by name. Twitter's boss recently admitted the social network 'sucks' at dealing with trolls and now the site is making good on its promise to clamp down on these abusive accounts. Reports claim the site will start banning users who violate its rules by tracking email addresses and phone numbers. It also recently added new tools to make it easier for users to report abuse and send these reports to law enforcement. A gift-wrapped rattle would then be on the user's seat. 'You bring your data to us and we will ensure that your customers, if they exist on Twitter - we can provide advertisements to them,' explained the 48-year-old. 'Twitter gives this fascinating ability to understand people in context like we’ve never been able to do before.' He stressed that this would be done anonymously and no private information is shared. Plus, unless tweets are protected, they can be searched for and viewed easily already. As a result there are firms that have developed their own mining software to extract information from tweets. Many websites already sell data to third-parties in this way but Mr Moody wants to expand its potential. He gave an example of a grandparent travelling on a plane to see their newborn grandson. The airline would know of their impending trip from their tweets and when they arrive they would greet the user by name . Mr Moody was previously chief executive at Gnip, a social data provider which Twitter bought in April last year. Gnip delivers more than 5 billion social activities per day and its network of companies includes more than 95 per cent of the Fortune 500. By comparison, Twitter has 288 million monthly active users and figures quoted by The Guardian's Juliette Garside said sales of data on the site amount to around $70 million (£47 million) in revenue each year.

A Laura Ashley boss worth £440 million has been ordered to pay his estranged former beauty queen wife £400,000 after he failed to persuade a judge that he has 'cash flow' problems. Lord Justice McFarlane today said it was 'very hard to understand' how someone of Khoo Kay Peng's wealth had 'cash flow difficulty' after he claimed he needed a month in order to borrow money and pay Pauline Chai. The couple, who were together for more than 40 years and have five children, have been locked in a bitter divorce battle for two years. Laura Ashley boss Khoo Kay Peng (right), who is worth £440 million, has been ordered to pay his estranged wife Pauline Chai £400,000 after he failed to persuade a judge that he has 'cash flow' problems . The judge was analysing the latest stage of the couple's money fight at a hearing in the Court of Appeal in London during which he was told that Dr Khoo owed Ms Chai around £400,000. He had been ordered to pay the amount to cover her living expenses and legal fees pending final decisions on money, but his lawyers claimed there was a 'cash flow' issue. Dr Khoo, 76, who is non-executive chairman of Laura Ashley Holdings, and Ms Chai, 68, have been embroiled in litigation for around two years. Ms Chai estimates that Dr Khoo is worth at least £440 million and says she should get half of that. She also claims he has failed to give a 'proper account' of his assets, which Dr Khoo disputes. The former couple also cannot agree whether decisions about who should get what ought to be made in English or Malaysian courts, and litigation has been launched in both countries. Dr Khoo, who is based in Malaysia, says the marital home was in Malaysia, and that Ms Chai wants to fight in England because an English court will give her a more generous award. Lord Justice McFarlane today said it was 'very hard to understand' how someone of Khoo Kay Peng's wealth had 'cash flow difficulty' after he claimed he needed a month in order to borrow money and pay Ms Chai, a former Miss Malaysia . Ms Chai says they moved their home to Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire, before separating last year and therefore decisions should be made in an English court. And she claims Dr Khoo is making a 'desperate attempt' to avoid fighting over money in an English court. A number of judges have analysed the dispute at hearings in the Family Division of the High Court in London, and three Court of Appeal judges are due to consider the case at a hearing in July. Lord Justice McFarlane today considered a number of preliminary legal issues prior to that hearing. The judge was told that Dr Khoo owed Ms Chai around £400,000 he had been ordered to pay to cover her living expenses and legal fees pending final decisions on money. A lawyer representing Dr Khoo accepted that the arrears 'must be paid' but said that was a 'cash flow

Summary: Pauline Chai, 68, and Khoo Kay Peng, 76, split after 43 years of marriage . They are embroiled in money fight over £200 million fortune at High Court . Dr Khoo owes Ms Chai £400,000 to cover her living expenses and court costs pending final decisions on money, the court was told .

'Speak out': Ronald Lauder - the billionaire son of Estee Lauder - told a congressional committee in Washington that American must take the lead . European Jews are living in fear 'like the 1930s', the World Jewish Congress leader has warned as he called on the U.S. to speak out against the rise of anti-Semitism across the continent. Ronald Lauder - the billionaire son of Estee Lauder - told a congressional committee in Washington that America must take the lead against the surge in anti-Semitic incidents in Europe in order to 'defeat the new flame of Islamic terror'. He pointed to the strong line taken by European leaders in the wake of attacks like those seen in Paris, Toulouse and Copenhagen earlier this year, and urged the U.S. to follow in their footsteps. 'Once again, like the 1930s, European Jews live in fear,' said Lauder. 'The United States can and must speak loudly and clearly to condemn this evil for what it is - the radical Islamic hatred of Jews.' Mr Lauder, who has led the World Jewish Congress since 2007, pointed to the fact Jews make up just one per cent of France's population, yet were victim to half the country's racist attacks. He also noted that anti-Semitic attacks have not only doubled in France in the past year, but also in the UK and Austria. He stressed: 'To defeat this new flame of radical Islamic terror and survive... the United States must lead.' Mr Lauder also revealed a recent meeting with Jewish leaders in Rome had revealed they believed the Italian capital would have no Jewish community within 25 years. According to Forbes, Mr Lauder claimed they say their children and grandchildren will look for more welcoming countries in which to make their homes in in the future. 'There is a hatred growing throughout Europe that is causing Jews to wonder if they should leave. They are asking if there is a future for Jews on that continent,' he told the committee. Terror: The recent attacks in Paris (pictured), Toulouse and Copenhagen have left many in fear . Fear: Lauder says Jews are living in fear 'like the 1930s' after incidents like the Copenhagen attack (pictured) Mr Lauder was joined by two other members of the WJC, which represents Jewish communities in 100 countries, who echoed his fears. Dan Asmussen, a Danish Jewish leader, noted Danish society 'itself is not and has never been anti-Semitic and many of the threats facing Danish Jewry - like in the rest of Europe - come from marginalized and radicalized Muslims, and these form a small minority of all Muslims in Denmark.' Roger Cukierman, a French Jewish leader, added: 'This is a war against Western modern civilization. And the Jews are seen by these Jihadists as a privileged target. 'We Jews are the sentinels at the forefront of this war. But we are not the only victims. 'Military forces, policemen and women, journalists were also targeted and killed.'

Summary: Ronald Lauder told congressional committee U.S. needs to take the lead . Claimed it was necessary to 'defeat the new flame of Islamic terror' Billionaire son of Estee Lauder pointed to attacks in France and Denmark . Also noted the rise in the number of anti-Semitic attacks in UK and Austria . 'Once again, like the 1930s, European Jews live in fear,' businessman said .

Katarina Johnson-Thompson and Jessica Ennis-Hill’s burgeoning rivalry has all the ingredients to propel athletics into the spotlight in a similar manner to the Sebastian Coe and Steve Ovett clashes which captivated sports fans in the 1980s. ‘They could have a rivalry like Steve and I had,’ said Lord Coe. ‘Head-to-heads are what get people excited. My kids got up at the weekend to watch Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg. The more opportunities we have for athletes going head-to-head, the better. It’s what people talk about. ‘It’s actually not just the thought of Jess and Kat but you have Morgan Lake, too, coming through and I’m sure she will be equally good. It’s an extraordinary period to be entering.’ Katarina Johnson-Thompson won the World Indoor's in Prague, Czech Republic to become world No 1 . Jessica Ennis-Hill is the Olympic Champion and her future rivalry with Johnson-Thompson is 'exciting' Johnson-Thompson, 22, is the World’s No 1 hept-athlete and broke Ennis-Hill’s British record at the European Indoor Championships in Prague this month. Her blistering form — coupled with murmurs from the Ennis-Hill camp that her training for a comeback after the birth of son Reggie is going very well — has set the scene for a mouthwatering duel. The pair are understandably keen to play down talk of a rivalry, Johnson-Thompson out of reverence for the Olympic champion of whom she claims to be ‘in awe’ and Ennis-Hill because she is unsure what competitive shape she will be in. But those charged with promoting the sport are keen to make the most of the fact that Britain boasts the world’s two leading multi-eventers. They were expected to compete against each other for the first time since London 2012 — when Johnson-Thompson was 15th — at the Hypo-Meeting at the end of May, when the world’s leading heptathletes descend on the Austrian alpine town Gotzis. But Brendan Foster revealed to Sportsmail that he is trying to set up a head-to-head for earlier that month at the Great CityGames in Manchester. Lord Sebastian Coe wants the heptathletes to have an exciting duel like he did with Steve Ovett in the 1980s . ‘Kat has already agreed to do the 200 metres hurdles and long jump,’ said Foster. ‘Jess was invited to take part in the same events and soundings are favourable from her. ‘With heptathlon they might only battle it out twice a year but if sport in Britain is to benefit from the rivalry that is going to be inevitable between these two then they should compete against each other a couple more times head-to-head in one, two or three events. It’s in their interests and very much in the sport’s interest.’ Both Johnson-Thompson and Ennis-Hill, 29, have the World Championships in Beijing this summer as their primary aim and will probably be joined by 17-year-old Lake, who has surpassed anything either of them achieved at the same age. Johnson-Thompson and Ennis-Hill are friends off the track despite the well speculated competition . Lord Coe and Ovett were great rivals in the 80s and provided

Summary: Jessica Ennis-Hill and Katarina Johnson-Thompson could become an 'exciting' rivalry like Lord Sebastian Coe and Steve Ovett's in the 1980s . The heptathletes look set to compete during the outdoor season . Johnson-Thompson is the World No 1 but Ennis-Hill is Olympic Champion . 17-year-old Morgan Lake is also a hot prospect for the event .

The missing Philae space probe that bumped down onto the surface of a comet 284 million miles from Earth could wake up from today. Scientists at the European Space Agency have restarted efforts to listen for a signal from the stricken lander on comet 67p/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. They lost contact with the washing-machine sized spacecraft in November last year after it bounced several times before landing in a hollow below a cliff. Starved of the sunlight it needed to power its suite of experiments, the lander's batteries went flat after around just 60 hours on the surface. ESA scientists have renewed efforts to contact the Philae lander on Comet 67p, shown in the illustration above . However, as the comet has travelled closer to the sun in its journey through the solar system, researchers hope Philae will get enough light to come back to life. The Rosetta probe, which was carrying Philae, launched into space in 2004, using the gravity of Earth and Mars to slingshot its way towards comet 67P. It chased comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko through space for more than ten years, and entered orbit in August 2014. After a four billion mile (6.5 billion km) journey, the probe then successfully released the Philae lander from its grip to land on the comet on 12 November 2014, travelling at 1 metre (40 inches) per second relative to the comet. But when it first made contact with the surface it failed to fire harpoons that would have kept it attached to the comet. This resulted in it bouncing to a height of 0.62 miles (1km) above the comet before again landing on the surface. It then bounced again, but to a much lower altitude. Scientists recently said that water on the comet was different to that on Earth - suggesting water on our world came from an asteroid, not a comet. The European Space Agency has now turned on the communication unit on the Rosetta spacecraft that is orbiting the comet. Stephen Ulamec, lander project manager at the German Aerospace Centre (DLR), said: 'Philae currently receives about twice as much solar energy as it did in November last year. 'It will probably still be too cold for the lander to wake up, but it is worth trying. The prospects will improve with each passing day.' Comet 67p is now 186 million miles (300 million km) from the sun. Scientists hope that as the comet rotates and gets closer to the sun, Philae's solar panels will move out of the shade of the cliff it is resting under. Philae touched down on 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko on 12 November, but rather than landing softly, the failure of its harpoons and thrusters saw it bounce twice. It first bounced to a height of 0.62 miles (1km) and then 65ft (20 metres) before finally coming to rest at an angle on uneven ground. Blurry images captured the the spacecraft movement through the air. Scientists described the comet's surface as being more like a trampoline, causing the probe to rebound so far. It is thought the probe settled in a ditch beneath

Summary: European Space Agency has begun attempting to contact the lost probe . Philae has been missing since November when it landed on Comet 67p . Scientists believe the lander bounced into a ditch in the shade of a cliff . But they say it may already be awake but not yet able to send messages . The probe needs 19 Watts of power from its solar panels to communicate . As the comet gets closer to the sun the lander may receive more sunlight . Scientists have sent commands to Philae for it to begin warming itself up . They will attempt to contact the lander with Rosetta over the next 8 days .


A Good Samaritan who shoveled his neighborhood's sidewalks was left stunned after an irate neighbor dumped the snow back on the walkway before grabbing him and telling him to keep away. Will Immke, 23, had cleared the snow from a disabled neighbor's driveway and sidewalk in Eastlake, Ohio on Sunday so that she could move around safely. But the good deed didn't impress 69-year-old Larry Myers, who lives next door to the woman. He grabbed his snowblower and started blowing snow back towards Immke as he cleared it up. When Immke told the man he was clearing the sidewalk for the neighbor and so that children could reach their school buses, Myers told him the kids could walk in the street, WKYC reported. Scroll down for video . Spat: Larry Myers, left, can be seen blowing snow onto a sidewalk as Will Immke, right, clears it for a disabled neighbor in Eastlake, Ohio on Sunday. Myers later grabbed Immke and now faces an assault charge . 'And I said "Are you stupid?"' Immke told the channel. 'And that's when he grabbed me by my throat and my face and shoved me back.' Myers didn't deny grabbing the man but said he only held on to the front of his shirt. 'I grabbed him... and I said "Leave my sidewalk alone",' he said. 'I specifically told him I don't need you to shovel my section of the sidewalk,' he added to WOIO. After Immke went back into his home across the street, Myers covered the sidewalk with the snow that had just been removed. It means that Myers has been left with a massive frozen wall of snow on his section of the sidewalk. 'When everybody else around here cleans their sidewalks, I will clean mine,' he said defiantly. Myers complained to Eastlake Police, but they say they are now investigating him for a misdemeanor charge of assault. Immke, pictured, said he told Myers he was clearing the sidewalk for children, and Myers said they could walk in the road instead. When Immke asked him if he was stupid, Myers grabbed him as pictured right . No denial: Myers, pictured, admitted that he had grabbed Immke and told him to stay away from his sidewalk . 'Not very neighborly,' they wrote on their Facebook page as they announced the pending charge. They also shared a photograph taken by a neighbor across the street showing Immke clearing the snow while Myers' snowblower forced snow back on to the path. 'As the complainant continued the snow removal, the suspect returned with a snow blower intentionally blowing snow on the victim shouting for him to leave the area,' the police wrote. The neighbors told WOIO that it's not their first run in. 'This was over snow,' Immke said. 'In the fall it's over the leaves. It's just constant.'

Summary: Will Immke, 23, cleared snow from the sidewalk in Eastlake, Ohio for a disabled neighbor and so that children could reach the school buses . But neighbor Larry Myers told him to stay away from his sidewalk and started blowing snow back over the path .

But seriously guys, is there nothing more important to discuss for a knockout game than a shirt swap?’ Former Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes, who was working as a pundit for ITV, was unhappy with Ozil’s move as he made his way to Arsenal’s dressing room. ‘I don’t like it — at the end of the game, maybe. But I’m not a big fan even then,’ said Scholes. ‘You do it once you’re in the tunnel or once you’re in the dressing room, out of the way of everyone. At half-time, it’s not for me.’ The incident was not the first time an Arsenal player has come under fire for swapping shirts as Andre Santos faced criticism for trading jerseys with Robin van Persie at half-time during the club’s 2-1 defeat to Manchester United in 2012.

At 100-plus kilometres per hour, Molly Taylor's car goes into a sideways slide that has it teetering on the brink of flipping over into an uncontrolled roll. No problem for Ms Taylor. She adjusts the steering wheel, shift's down a gear, and slams her foot on the accelerator to power out of the turn. Meet the young Australian driver who is smashing through the glass ceiling of motorsports. Not literally, of course. Australian Molly Taylor is the only woman competing in the World Rally Championships . Motorsports has always traditionally been a macho industry, but two women are breaking through the glass ceiling with fearless grit and determination . Ms Taylor, 26, is the only woman competing on the World Rally Championship circuit - a competition in which 19 drivers have been killed since it began in the earlier 1970s. She has joined Brit Susie Wolff, the only female Formula One test driver in the world, as women at the top of their chosen sports, both traditionally dominate by men. Both women were born with racing pumping through their veins - their parents worked in the motorsports arena. Although it wasn't expected that they follow in their footsteps - they were certainly never discouraged to take up the male-dominated sport because they were female. Susie Wolff, who now lives in Switzerland, is the only female F1 test driver in the world . Susie Wolff poses with fans before the first practice session at the Formula One Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne . The 32-year-old (right) grew up in the rugged highlands on the west coast of Scotland and rode her first motorbike at the wee age of just two years old . Born and bred in Sydney, both Ms Taylor's parents were competitors in rally car driving but it was her mother who had the most prominent career as a co-driver for Toyota. 'As we were growing up she was the high profile person, even more than my father, so I didn't think that was weird,' she said. 'Dad was at home making our lunches for school while my mum was competing around the country, so I didn't really think that was anything abnormal - I just thought everyone's mums did that. 'So if you have that mindset from the start and then find what you love doing that's what you base it on and everything else happens around you.' Ms Taylor's first taste of being behind the wheel of a rally car was when she was learning to drive and her parents tested out her skills purely for safety purposes. Molly Taylor, 26, (left) and Susie Wolff, 32. (right) have accelerated to the top of their respective motorsports and don't plan on taking the foot of the pedal anytime soon . What a rush: Born and bred in Sydney, both of Ms Taylor's parents were competitors in rally car driving but it was her mother who had the most prominent career . 'I couldn't believe the adrenalin rush and how much fun it was,' she said. 'When you start to enjoy

Taylor Swift brought untold joy to her newly-discovered doppelganger yesterday when she shared a snap of the lookalike fan on her Tumblr page. 'Lol I thought that was me,' the 25-year-old songstress wrote along with the post, which is of Morgan Jensen, a young model and graphic designer from Flagstaff, Arizona, who idolizes Taylor and occasionally impersonates her outside her concerts. 'When I saw [Taylor] had re-blogged [shared] it I screamed and threw my phone and for the next six hours after that I was an ugly mess,' Morgan told Cosmopolitan. 'Taylor is everything and the fact that she saw my face and thought it looked like hers - I died!' Scroll down for video . Lookalike: Taylor Swift (right) brought untold joy to her newly discovered doppelganger yesterday when she re-blogged this snap of her to her own Tumblr page (left) The original photo of Morgan was posted by her friend Kasey to her blog NeverGoOutOfStyle, and pictures the blogger posing with the lookalike blonde, who is sporting the same style of crimson lipstick and black sunglasses often modeled by Taylor herself. 'When your best friend looks like Taylor swift you have to take 100 selfies,' Kacey captioned the image, before it was re-blogged by Taylor. Morgan says she often gets compared to her favorite popstar, remarking that both are 'tall and lanky', and even revealed that she once commanded a two-hour line of fans who wanted their photos taken with her outside Taylor's Nashville concert in 2013.

Mercedes motorsport boss Toto Wolff has urged Formula One's moaners to visit the Wailing Wall if they want their prayers answered on a change to the sport's regulations. Wolff was responding to the latest complaints from Red Bull team boss Christian Horner in the wake of Mercedes' crushing start to the 2015 season as Lewis Hamilton spearheaded a one-two in the season-opening Australian Grand Prix. Horner was left to reflect on 'a s***** Sunday' and the fear fans will turn off F1 after Mercedes' domination of the race at Melbourne's Albert Park . Nico Rosberg showers winner Lewis Hamilton after Mercedes finish on-two at Australian Grand Prix . Hamilton races to victory as Mercedes extend last season's dominance into the new campaign . Mercedes chief Toto Wolff has told critics of his team to work to find a solution . After winning the constructors' and drivers' titles for four years from 2010-2013, with Sebastian Vettel at the helm, Mercedes have taken up the mantle of F1 powerhouse. Having won 16 of 19 grands prix in 2014 to claim the constructors' crown, and with Hamilton clinching his second championship, the start to the new year was a breeze for Mercedes. Hamilton beat team-mate Nico Rosberg by 1.3secs, with Vettel third on his debut for Ferrari but 34.5secs off the pace. Predicting 'a two-horse race at every grand prix this year', Horner has called on the FIA to act to prevent an F1 yawn, and he is fully aware of how his comments will be viewed given Red Bull's success. 'When we were winning - and we were never winning to the advantage they have - I remember double diffusers were banned, exhausts were moved, flexible bodywork was prohibited, engine mapping mid-season was changed,' said Horner of the steps taken to negate his team's performance. Red Bull's Christian Horner has complained about Mercedes, despite his team winning four consecutive titles . Horner claim that leaving Hamilton and Rosberg to fight it out for the title is unhealthy for the sport . Re-live every lap of the Melbourne race . 'Anything was done and that wasn't just unique to Red Bull, but Williams in previous years and McLaren, etcetera. 'Is it healthy to have this situation? The FIA, within the rules, have an equalisation mechanism and it is perhaps something we need to look at. 'Mercedes, take nothing away from them, they have done a great job and they have a good car, a fantastic engine, and two very good drivers. 'The problem is the gap is so big you end up with three-tier racing and that's not healthy for Formula One. 'The FIA have the facts and they could quite easily come up with some form of equalisation otherwise I fear the interest will wane. 'I didn't see Mercedes much on the TV and I can only imagine that's because it's not interesting watching a procession and the producer was looking to pick out other battles in the race.' Referring to the fact Hollywood star Arnold Schwarzenegger conducted the podium ceremony, Horner added: 'The

Why and how certain types of mushrooms glow has long confused scientists, but now they think they might have an answer. It appears that some fungi emit light to attract insects at night, which then spread their fungal spores around. And interestingly, the mushrooms are also able to sync up their ability with the circadian clock, so they only become bioluminescent when it is dark. Scientists in Brazil studied why certain species of mushroom glow. They found the ability helps them attract insects at night. These creatures will then move their fungal spores elsewhere. But the mushrooms are able to turn off the ability during the day. Pictured is Neonothopanus gardneri . The research, published in the journal Current Biology, was led by the University of Sao Paulo. Among bioluminescent organisms, fungi are the most rare and least understood. Of more than 100,000 species of fungi, only 71 are known to produce green light, a process that uses oxygen and energy. Scientists had thought they produce light around the clock as byproduct of their metabolism, but based on new evidence it seems that isn't so. The effect is triggered by a chemical reaction between luciferin, a light-emitting pigment, and the enzyme luciferase. It can occur in fungi as well as in a range of animals including jellyfish, squid, scorpions and other insects. In fact, the mushrooms' glow appears to be under the control of a temperature-compensated circadian clock. This level of control helps them 'save energy' during hours of daylight when they do not need to grow. At night, the green glow attracts insects including beetles, flies, wasps and ants. 'It appears that fungi make light so they are noticed by insects who can help the fungus colonize new habitats,' said Dr Cassius Stevani of Brazil's Instituto de Química-Universidade de São Paulo. The circadian control of bioluminescence makes the process more efficient. 'Regulation implies an adaptive function for bioluminescence,' added Dr Jay Dunlap of Dartmouth's Geisel School of Medicine. Here the species Neonothopanus gardneri is seen during the day, when its bioluminescent ability 'turns off' in order to conserve energy. Scientists had thought they produce light around the clock as byproduct of their metabolism, but based on this new evidence it seems that isn't so . To make the findings, the researchers made sticky, fake mushrooms out of acrylic resin and lit them from inside with green LED lights (shown). When those pretend fungi were placed in the forest , the ones that were lit led many more insects to get stuck than did comparably sticky dark mushrooms . The research focused on Neonothopanus gardneri, one of the biggest and brightest of bioluminescent mushrooms. N. gardneri is also called 'flor de coco,' meaning coconut flower, by locals in Brazil, where the mushroom can be found attached to leaves at the base of young palm trees in coconut forests. Other fungi have other methods to disperse their spores like the Common Stinkhorn (shown), which releases a foul smell to get flies to attract flies . To make the findings, the researchers made sticky,

These creatures will then move their fungal spores elsewhere . But the mushrooms are able to turn off the ability during the day . 'I dare to say that life on Earth depends on organisms like these,' said one of the researchers, Dr Stevani .


A 'senseless' thief was filmed stealing two live koi carp by stuffing them into his pockets in a 'sickening' act of cruelty. CCTV footage captured the man walking around Aquatic Supplies Wales in Swansea before hovering around the tanks where the exotic fish were kept. He plunged his hands into the water, dropping one of the £60 fish before trying repeatedly to put it in his pocket. The thief was filmed putting fish in each of his pockets before walking out of the aquatics store in Swansea . Eventually he made off with two of the creatures, with staff at the store unaware of his crime until they reviewed the footage later. 'It was really sickening to watch, 'I've never seen anything like it,' said Dani Grogan, who works at the shop. 'We were thinking maybe he’d have a bucket of water out in his car - but he didn't intend on stealing the fish to keep, he just put it in his pocket to kill it. 'It doesn't make any sense whatsoever, it’s just a horrible thing to have seen.' Footage shows the man walking towards the back of the store to where the expensive fish are kept. He lifted one small carp out of its tank with his bare hands then returned to try to steal a larger creature with a handheld net. After around four minutes the thief walked out of the shop with a fish in each pocket. Staff at the shop did not realise the fish had been stolen until they reviewed CCTV footage of the crime . Determined to identify the person in the tape Miss Grogan shared the footage on the Aquatic Supplies Wales Facebook page. It was viewed more than 30,000 times with customers eager to help find the thief. 'We had to do something and all our customers wanted to help,' said Miss Grogan's partner and the shop's owner, Thomas Dodd. 'We love running this shop and work hard to pay the bills. It is terrible when someone abuses it like this.' The couple have reported the incident to South Wales Police. 'Police have received a report of theft from the Aquatic Supplies store in Fforestfach, Swansea which happened at around midday on Friday 27th February,' a spokesman for the force said. 'The theft is being investigated and anyone who has any information is asked to call 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously 0800 555 111 quoting occurrence number 1500076456.' Dani Grogan, pictured with the shop's owner, Thomas Dodd, said the crime was 'sickening and senseless'

MP Andrew Laming has been suspended from federal parliament for a day for pouring oil on the floor of the Federation Chamber. The Liberal-National Party member for Bowman, Queensland, was speaking in the chamber about the cruise liner industry on Tuesday night when he picked up two bottles of bunker oil. He poured some of the contents of thick black fuel onto his hand and it spilled onto the desk and floor of the chamber. Scroll down for video . Queensland MP Andrew Laming has been suspended from federal parliament for a day for pouring oil on the floor of the Federation Chamber . Speaker Bronwyn Bishop said such action was 'totally disorderly, disrespectful of the house and the Federation Chamber' and potentially dangerous to people in the chamber . Speaker Bronwyn Bishop said such action was 'totally disorderly, disrespectful of the house and the Federation Chamber' and potentially dangerous to people in the chamber. She said it had caused damage which was now being repaired. 'I do apologise,' Mr Laming told parliament on Wednesday. He was then suspended for 24 hours after the Speaker 'named' him under parliamentary rules. Mr Laming's inflammatory stunt came towards the end of a speech about cruise ships using fuels containing high levels of sulphur while docking near residential communities. Gone rogue: Mr Laming was scolded by Speaker Bronwyn Bishop and banished from the Parliament for 24 hours . Mr Laming (pictured, doing a handstand and drinking beer) received national media attention in 2013 when he successfully did a handstand and skolled a beer . Mr Laming said: 'This stuff is revolting. It should not be burnt anywhere near where children live. We can do better than that. Then, as members cried out and the Deputy Speaker demanded he not use props, Mr Laming poured oil over his hands. 'We can burn the clean stuff. It is eminently available. We should be using that, and not this. 'I insist on the cruise-ship industry cleaning up their act and burning the clean stuff like they do in the rest of the world. In trouble: Mr Laming is pictured prior to being suspended from the House of Representatives on Wednesday . Cruise ship pollution has become a hot political issue in the New South Wales state election, particularly in seats which host cruise terminals such as Balmain. The Member for Bowman, Mr Laming argued it is a federal issue as all affected Australian communities required a resolution. The LNP representative came under the spotlight for another stunt two years ago - one that wasn't political so much as a party trick. He was photographed simultaneously performing a handstand and skolling a beer on Australia Day 2013.

Summary: Andrew Laming was booted from Parliament for 24 hours pouring oil all over his hands and on the floor on Tuesday night . Mr Laming was protesting the use of sulphur-based fuels by cruise ships that dock near residential communities . It's not his first attention-grabbing stunt... on Australia Day 2013 he skolled a beer while doing a handstand .


Anne Dobson, 39, was jailed for two years and four months after stealing money from the families of three residents at the care home where she worked . A conwoman who used her job working at a care home to steal £116,000 from the families of vulnerable residents used it to pay for a lifestyle she could not afford. Anne Dobson, 39, splashed £20,000 on a wedding ceremony, another £4,000 on the honeymoon, and bought herself a new car worth £16,000. She tricked the families of three residents of Broomfield Grange Care Home, Essex, into paying their monthly bill of around £1,200 directly into her bank account. She then passed the money on to her employer Embrace All Care Homes, but not before taking £400 from each bill for herself. Chelmsford Crown Court heard that she began taking the funds in order to pay down debts she had racked up, but soon went on a spending spree than included a £1,000 holiday. Andrew Jackson, QC, prosecuting, said: 'In 2013 she was marrying again and needed to pay for her wedding and she could not afford the sort of wedding she wanted so continued to defraud the company. 'She paid for her own wedding which she told police had cost about £20,000 and on top of that a honeymoon to the tune of £4,000, all of which were funded by the ongoing fraud. 'By 2013 she was on top of her debts and she freely admitted that it was to pay for the wedding.' The 'simple' scheme worked like clockwork each month, the court was told, until one of the residents' families thought to question the amounts being paid. When interviewed by police, Dobson admitted her actions, telling officers she felt 'crap' for what she had done. At one stage the mum from Witham, Essex, even wrote a £7,000 cheque to one resident in a bid to relieve her of her burden of guilt. Mr Jackson added: 'It was a gross breach of the trust that the company placed in her. 'She played a leading role - she was the author of this fraud - there was an abuse of her position of trust and responsibility.' Miss Penny Summers, mitigating, said Dobson was 'absolutely and thoroughly ashamed of herself' and had yet to tell her children of her actions. She said: 'In the beginning, she was in financial difficulties - however she explained to me that there was no excuse for it ongoing. Dobson (right) gave her personal bank details to three families, collected their monthly bills, skimmed £800 off for herself, then paid the rest to her employer. She then spent some of the money on a £20,000 wedding . Chelmsford Crown Court heard that Dobson also paid £4,000 for a honeymoon, £16,000 for a car, and another £1,000 on a holiday. She also used the money to pay off debts . 'The money was used to pay for her wedding and honeymoon.' Dobson, who wore a black jacket and scarf, black skirt and knee-high black boots, sat with her head bowed

Summary: Anne Dobson, 39, gave her bank details to families of care home residents . Skimmed £400 off each of their bills before passing the rest to employer . Then used the cash to pay for £20,000 wedding and £4,000 honeymoon . Was jailed for two years and four months after admitting the fraud .


The deep bass tones of singer Barry White have become synonymous with seduction among humans, but it appears horses find deep voices sexy too. A new study has found that female horses are more attracted stallions with deeper, lower pitched whinnies. The lower frequency 'voices' of stallions tended to be associated with larger males, who had a calmer temperament and their offspring tended to survive for longer. Scroll down for video . Stallions, like the wild mustang above, use their deep voices to attract the opposite sex, according to research . The researchers say that mares seem to make their choices about unfamiliar males on their first meeting based on the depth of their voices. And just like humans putting on an album featuring Barry White's bass-baritone voice, the deeper whinnies from male horses also appear to get the mares more in the mood. The researchers say the findings could also be used to help horse breeders select the best stallions for mating in the future. The domestication of the horse some 5,500 years ago ultimately revolutionized human civilization and societies. Horses facilitated transportation as well as the circulation of ideas, languages and religions. Horses also revolutionized warfare with the advent of chariotry and mounted cavalry and beyond the battlefield horses greatly stimulated agriculture. However, the domestication of the horse and the subsequent encroachment of human civilization also resulted in the near extinction of wild horses. The only surviving wild horse population, the Przewalski's horses from Mongolia, descends from mere 13 individuals, preserved only through a massive conservation effort. As a consequence of this massive loss of genetic diversity, the effects of horse domestication through times have been difficult to unravel on a molecular level. Professor Alban Lemasson, a biologist at the University of Rennes in France, said: 'The lower pitched the stallion's voice, the slower its heart beat and the higher its reproductive success. 'Stallion acoustic signals may play a role in female attraction at the time of group formation, as well as a role in sexual stimulation or libido maintenance when a group is formed. 'This supports preliminary findings showing that females base their approach preference towards certain unfamiliar males on the amount of vocal signals uttered during their first encounter and some male vocal signals trigger mare behavioural preparation for mating, for example tail lifting and leg parting.' In the wild, horses tend to live in harems consisting of one to two male adults and two to three females who have established stable bonds. When female juveniles reach sexual maturity they leave their group and form their own harem with bachelor males or join an existing harem. This may explain why 'voice' has become such an important characteristic in horses as females will often choose which harem to join from a long way off. Sound is an effective way for males to convey information to prospective mates and may be a way of avoiding the often violent fights that wild male rivals can engage in to win a mate. In a study published in the journal Public Library of

Summary: Scientists at the University of Rennes, France, recorded stallions' whinnies . Mares were drawn to deeper whinnies when played back through speakers . Male horses with deeper voices were large, calmer and had higher fertility . Scientists say the findings could help horse breeders pick better stallions .
