New Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has led his side to back-to-back Premier League wins
Chelsea are hoping to extend their winning start to the Premier League season when they host newcomers Burnley at Stamford Bridge on Saturday at 3pm.
The Blues, looking to make amends for their weak title defence last term, are currently fourth in the table courtesy of back-to-back 2-1 victories over West Ham and Watford .
Burnley, whose primary focus will be to avoid relegation, picked up an important three points against Liverpool last week after losing their season opener 1-0 to Swansea City at home.

Blues attacking midfielder Willian will return to action after recovering from the calf injury which ruled him out of the win away at Watford.
John Obi Mikel is also back in contention after coming back from Olympic Games duty with Nigeria.
Burnley are likely to name the same line-up that beat Liverpool after rotating for their midweek Football League Cup defeat by Accrington Stanley.

The Clarets, however, are without striker Ashley Barnes (hamstring) until after the next international break.
Some key stats to note ahead of the fixture are Chelsea’s leaky defence at home and Burnley’s clinical finishing.
The west Londoners have conceded at least one goal in each of their last 13 home league matches since beating Norwich City 1-0 in November 2015.
Burnley scored with their only two shots on target to beat Liverpool despite having just 19.4 per cent of possession.

It seems Liverpool should have been getting a lot of the abuse that has been directed at Man United over the years

Penalties? Injury time winners? Facts prove Liverpool are more like Man United than Man United
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Man United have earned something of a reputation during the Premier League era.
'Yeah, for winning titles," chime United supporters everywhere.
Fair enough - but ask supporters of any other club what United were known for during the Sir Alex Ferguson glory years and they will say two things:
1. Winning countless penalties.
2. Scoring LOADS of injury time winners.
PA No wonder he's smiling…
That's the perception, anyway. In the heads of most football fans, Fergie's almost hypnotic hold over referees meant that a) they would award United more spot-kicks than anyone else and b) play on as long as required for United to get a winning goal (the legendary 'Fergie Time').
For Liverpool supporters, these 'facts' were often used as the reason for United's dominance of the league. Time and again, the concept of Fergie Time and referee bias towards 'that lot from Manchester' has been trotted out to explain United's success.
John Peters Look familiar?
Which is why these numbers will make VERY interesting reading for any followers of Liverpool or United.
Firstly, let's look at the teams who have been given most penalties since the Premier League began in 1992:
Most penalties taken, Premier League history
Yes, LIVERPOOL have been awarded more spot-kicks than any other side in Premier League history. They have taken 137, eight more than Arsenal and a whole 14 more than Man United.
Now, let's consider winning goals scored in injury time since August 1992:
Most injury-time winners, Premier League history
So much for Fergie Time. It turns out Liverpool have scored the most winners after 90 minutes, bagging a massive 28 vital, last-gasp goals. United aren't even in the top three - on only 18 occasions have they won a match in injury time.
Getty This sort of thing didn't happen nearly as often as you think
No doubt supporters of the two English giants will quickly seek to put their own spin on the figures.
But these stats do pose one uncomfortable question:
If it's been Liverpool who have been getting the rub of the green with penalties and late goals for the past 24 years… why are they yet to win a Premier League title?

LAX 'shooting': Police confirm it was a false alarm

Police have confirmed that there was no shooting at Los Angeles International Airport on Sunday evening.
Police searched the airport following unconfirmed reports of a shooter being inside one of the terminal buildings.
Less than an hour after the initial reports, it turned out to be a false alarm.
"Report of shooting at LAX proven to be LOUD NOISES only No Shots Fired No Injuries investigation continues to locate source," an LAPD officer wrote on Twitter.

According to several social media posts, it appeared that people had been evacuated from certain terminals, while other unverified reports claimed people were barricaded in a bathroom.
They tweeted on Sunday evening: "Police searching LAX after reports. All precautions being taken to ensure safety of public. Remain calm. Thank you for your cooperation."
The upper departure level and lower arrivals level of the Central Terminal Area have both been closed and the airport has told passengers to check with airlines before they head to the airport.

Burton Albion 1-0 Derby: Irvine's header after 12 minutes seals three points

Derby beaten by Burton Albion after Jackson Irvine's header but Nigel Clough denies it's sweet revenge
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

Record signing Jackson Irvine gave Burton Albion a famous derby win and handed boss Nigel Clough a taste of revenge over Derby.
Irvine headed home on 12 minutes to give the Brewers a momentous triumph in their first ever meeting with their near neighbours.
And victory was sweet for Clough, who was sacked by Derby in 2013 and who hit out at Rams chief executive Sam Rush before the game.
“People asked me if it means more to me than another win,” said Clough.
“The answer is no, unless they’re going to give us an extra point.
Action Images via Reuters Recording Burton signing Jackson Irvine celebrates scoring his side's winner on Friday night
“It is another step in the fantastic story of this club over the last 15 or 20 years.
“We never dreamed we would even be in the same division as Derby, never mind beating them.
“But it’s not just about winning these games, it’s about staying in this division, and this is another three points towards that.”
Burton took the lead when Lucas Akins was given room again on 12 minutes to create the Burton opener as his cross was thundered home by the head of Irvine.
Early in the second half, half-time Derby substitute Abdoul Camara had a shot blocked by Ben Turner as the visitors applied some pressure.
And Camara went even closer moments later when his deflected effort was saved by McLaughlin.
Derby continued to press and McLaughlin had to make a smart save to keep out a low shot by Craig Bryson.
Action Images via Reuters Burton boss Nigel Clough (right) was delighted but his Derby counterpart Nigel Pearson questioned his players' heart
The Rams continued to push in the closing stages but they were denied by a brave block by Burton captain Kyle McFadzean.
Defeat prompted boos from angry Derby fans at the final whistle and left Rams manager Nigel Pearson questioning the commitment of some of his players.
Pearson said: “At the moment, this is typical of where we are, we are collectively under performing.
“We’re not taking chances and not creative enough. It’s very frustrating for us. The goal set the scene for a disappointing performance. Let’s not mince words, we were looking to salvage something from the game.
“I would expect the fans not to be happy, of course.
“Players have a responsibility to perform.
“We have to function better as a team. We didn't show a commitment to each other. You can’t get anywhere with short cuts.”

The five biggest conspiracy theories behind Tupac Shakur's death as new selfie emerges claiming to 'prove' he is not dead
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
It is always tough when a music star dies young and inevitably no one ever really wants to believe it.
And every so often, there seems to be a new theory claiming that Tupac Shakur was never really gunned down in 19996 and has been fooling us all ever since.
But the latest theory to come to light claims to have actual proof that the rap icon is alive and kicking.
A YouTube video has emerged which includes a selfie of a man wearing a bandanna who bears an uncanny resemblance to the fallen hip hop star.
It is claimed the man is "Tupac guys 100% same eyebrows and lips".
The subtitles in the video state the photo is a "selfie" taken in 2015 on a phone "made in 2011" – 11 years after his death.

When pictures of his body were released - showing the serious injuries - there appeared to be a number of inaccuracies surrounding his death which Tupac’ s fans were quick to pick up on.
Perhaps most notably his mum Afeni- who was the only person other than medical staff who saw Tupac once he was in hospital – said of his death: "In the end, he chose to leave quietly."
The shooting couldn’t have been further from quiet which has led people to suggest something was not as it seemed.
Various other things, including the amount of albums released after his death and recent reports that a police man helped him to fake his death , have all contributed to many fans believeing Tupac is still with us.
So with 'Tupac is alive' doing the rounds again - we're taking a look back on the top five conspiracies surrounding his death.
The last Photograph of Tupac before his death
Makaveli
Tupac sometimes performed under the stage name Makaveli – his album The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory was released under that name for example.
He picked the name after Italian war strategist Niccolò Machiavelli who pretended to fake his death.
That’s not all though if you switch the letters in Makaveli around you get – Am Alive K.
Furthermore the album, which was released under the name, has the words “Exit 2Pac, Enter Makaveli” on the cover and it of course featured him as Jesus Christ – who you know, came back to life after seven days. Coincidence?
Were there hints in his lyrics?
After this death everyone analysed every lyric he ever rapped and jumped to conclusions.
Perhaps most notably on Richie Rich’s N***** Done Change he rapped: “I’ve been shot and murdered, can’t tell you how it happened word for word but best believe that n*****’ gonna get what they deserve.”
On another track he says: “all for the street fame on how to be managed, to plan s***, 6 months in advance to what we plotted, approved to go on swole and now I got it.”
And the one that swayed us the most – on Aint’ Hard 2 Find: “I heard rumors that I died murdered in cold blood, traumatized pictures of me in my final states — you know mama cried. But that was fiction, some coward got the story twisted.” Blimey.
His cremation
Apparently Tupac was cremated the day after he died – so on September 14.
Suge Knight said he paid for the cremation – which for some reason he claims cost him $3 million.
The cremator though has never been heard from again – he literally disappeared off the face of this earth.
Weirdly hip hop group The Outlawz, who were founded by Tupac, said they smoked his ashes with some cannabis – gross.
But in 2014 E.D.I Mean, who is an Outlawz member, confirmed the ashes weren’t actually Tupac's. So whose ashes did they smoke and why was there the confusion?
Is he in Cuba?
Interestingly some people believe that after faking his own death Tupac fled to Cuba where his aunt Assata lives.
But why would he want to leave?
The Number Seven
The number seven seems to crop up a lot in 2Pac’s life and music – something which hasn’t gone unnoticed.
People assumed this meant he would come back to life after seven years which as we all know hasn’t happened. Maybe he will reappear on a multiple of seven?

The Crystal Maze is making a HUGE comeback this autumn.
After 21 years off air, the show is returning to Channel 4 in October and Doctor Who star David Tennant is reportedly being lined up as host.
"Even two decades after it last aired, there are very few shows that have been as magical and action-packed as The Crystal Maze. It is still remembered extremely fondly today," a source told The Sun.
"Channel 4 are hoping to tap into that nostalgia and believe viewers will jump at the chance to finally take on the show’s adventurous challenges themselves."
Doctor Who star David Tennant is reportedly being lined up as host
The Crystal Maze was original hosted by Richard O'Brien before Ed Tudor-Pole took over in 1993.
At the height of its popularity the series drew in up to six million viewers per episode, making it the most most popular show in Channel 4 at the time.
Channel 4 The Crystal Maze was original hosted by Richard O'Brien before Ed Tudor-Pole took over in 1993
TV bosses are hoping they can re-create the same success with a revamp of the series.
However, for now, the plans are just to run a one-off big-budget celebrity special, which will air on Channel 4 in October.

But is the episode is a hit who knows what direction producers may decide to take the show in next.
If David Tennant agrees to present, we can't imagine this will be a flop.

Key Events So Far
13:36 BravNO! Guardiola says Claudio Bravo will not be making his debut on Sunday against West Ham.
13:35 Pep on more signings Pep says “no chance” of any more signings this window.
13:24 Pep due in soon
13:04 FYI
13:03 Interesting news
13:00 Pride weekend
12:55 Join us
12:41 Bravo on his City switch Claudio Bravo says he is “proud” to have joined City. The Chilean goalkeeper joined the club yesterday for a fee of £15.3 million. He says he’s delighted to join the Blues. I’m very proud to be joining Manchester City. I know the Club is building something very special and I hope I can be part of many successes in the coming years. I have followed City’s progress in recent years and obviously know some of my new team-mates from the Copa America. It is not easy to leave a club like Barcelona where I had two fantastic years, but the opportunity to work with Pep Guardiola was too good to refuse. Now I will challenge the other great goalkeepers the Club has and together I hope we can win many trophies.
12:20 Stones praises Hart John Stones says Joe Hart has been “the ultimate professional” this season, despite losing his place in the side and looking likely to leave City. Joe’s the ultimate professional. It’s good to see him play again. He’s been working hard as everyone has and he deserved his chance to play. I’ve played with him a few times and it just seems to click, it was good to play with him again.
12:09 Nice abs
11:40 Sinclair can see City hammering West Ham
11:36 Departures on the cards
10:55 Rodgers backs Hart for Liverpool move Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers has told talkSPORT he feels Joe Hart would be a great signing for his former club Liverpool. Hart is reportedly struggling to find a new club - but Rodgers, whose Celtic side will face City in the Champions League this season, feels a switch to Anfield would be good for all parties. Rodgers told the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast. Liverpool is a great club and if his future is not at Manchester City and he’s got the chance to go to Liverpool then I’m sure it is something that he would look at seriously. You’ve got Simon [Mignolet] there and the goalkeeper they brought in who is injured but I’ve always rated Joe – I think he is an outstanding ‘keeper. His close friend James Milner is there as well – ‘Milly’ and Joe are very close. It will be interesting because it’s a great club and if he is to go there then it would be a great move for Joe.
10:46 Hart options running slim Joe Hart is concerned about his chances of securing a move away from City during the current transfer window, according to a report in the Times. Everton have said they have no interest in signing the Blues ‘keeper, and there has been very little concrete interest thus far. With the transfer deadline looming, Hart is understood to be pessimistic about his chances of securing a move.
10:38 Great days
09:57 Roberts set to face City Txiki Begiristain has confirmed that Patrick Roberts WILL be allowed to play for Celtic against City in this season’s Champions League. The Blues were drawn alongside Barcelona, Borussia Monchengladbach and Celtic in Group C of this season’s competition. And with Roberts, 19, currently in the midst on an 18-month loan at Celtic from City, there were some suggestion he would not be allowed to play in either of the games between the two clubs. But Begiristain says he wants the winger to play in order to maximise his development. “Yes, why not?” he said. “Our target is to make him a better play and play in games such as this so we will see.” Begiristain believes City have been handed an “amazing group”. Some have suggested the Blues have once again been given a ‘Group of Death’ scenario - but he says everyone at the club is pleased, even though they recognise the difficulty of the task they face. “It’s not a nightmare draw at all because we are in a wonderful competition and we are really happy to be here, but in Barcelona, Borussia Monchengladbach and Celtic we know it won’t be easy. “We reached the semi-final last season and we want to go far in the Champions League again. It is a very difficult competition to win – for everybody - and you need luck along the way, but we are ready and always trying to improve. “Both games against Borussia Monchengladbach were tough last year, even though we won them both. They are a very strong side and it’s going to be hard again.” Pep Guardiola spent four years as manager of Barcelona, winning three La Liga titles and two Champions Leagues, and will now return to his former club in his new role as City boss. Asked if he had spoken to Guardiola about the prospect of returning to his former club, Begiristain said: “No, not yet – but it’s going to come, don’t worry! It’s good for Pep because he knows Borussia very well from his time at Bayern and Barcelona as well so we will see. “He had been back to Barca before with Bayern Munich so it’s not the first time he’s been returned to the Camp Nou - Barcelona will start as favourites for the group but that is nothing new – they are a fantastic side. “Celtic will be hard as well – I love watching Celtic play Rangers and games like that and they are friends of ours so as I say, it’s an amazing group.”
09:15 What a guy
09:13 Hart told he can go Manchester City will do everything they can to help Joe Hart find a new club before Wednesday’s transfer deadline. Hart has been frozen out of the first-team picture at City this season, with Pep Guardiola unconvinced by his ability to distribute the ball and help build moves from the back. The England No. 1 played his first game of the season on Wednesday in the Champions League play-off match with Steaua Bucharest at the Etihad and bid an emotional farewell to the fans at full time. City finalised their move for Claudio Bravo on Thursday, leaving Hart’s position even more unstable. And the club’s sporting director, Txiki Begiristain, has since confirmed that the 29-year-old’s departure is imminent – and insisted the club will work hard to ensure he gets the best move possible. “We will try to find a good solution for everybody,” Begiristain said. “We now have one week to make him happy and find a club where he has a real chance. “We will try and help him because he deserves it.” Hart has spent 10 seasons at City, making 266 Premier League appearances for the club. Everton were thought to be interested in taking Hart – but manager Ronald Koeman has ruled out a move, insisting he has “no interest” in signing the Blues stopper.
08:51 Good finisher
08:31 Bravo
08:27 Hart exit City sporting director Txiki Begiristain says he will do everything he can to help Joe Hart find a new club. The 29-year-old bid an emotional farewell to fans at the Etihad on Wednesday after he played against Steaua Bucharest in the Champions League. He’s been frozen out of the first-team picture this season and the arrival of Claudio Bravo means he is now looking for an exit in order to secure regular football and keep his England place. Begiristain says the club owe it to him to ensure he finds a move. We will try to find a good solution for everybody. We now have one week to make him happy and find a club where he has a real chance. We will try and help him because he deserves it.
08:19 Champions League Okay, so, City were drawn in Champions League Group C along with Barcelona (again!), Borussia Monchengladbach (again!) and Celtic. A tough group - but one City can definitely get out of.
Not awful
Deal done

From juggling school holidays with work to missing non-uniform day, most mums will admit they have not always been utterly perfect.
Now Hollywood has at last realised parents can’t get A*s for behaviour all the time.
The new movie Bad Moms, starring Kristen Bell, Mila Kunis and Kathryn Hahn, is set to storm the box office this weekend.
But for parental clangers, the A-listers have nothing on our columnists.
Comedy Bad Moms movie
Here the Mirror’s biggest name writers confess their own highly spectacular mum fails...
Alison Phillips
Alison Phillips and her children in India
My bad mum moment happened when my 13-month-old youngest son decided it was time to fly the nest.
With two other children under six I was suffering years of sleep deprivation.
It was a glorious August afternoon and I’d just bought a very comfy new deckchair.
So perhaps I took my eye off the ball (or the baby, to be precise) for a few short minutes.
Until... “Yoo-hoo. Yoo-hoo”, I heard swimming through my dream.
“I seem to have a baby in my garden. He’s crawled through the hedge, dug under my fence, up my garden and on to my patio. Could he be yours?”
Leaping from the chair I noticed my son held aloft over the fence, smiling face covered in mud (I hoped), nappy sodden and grasping a holly branch.
Still, it was far less prickly than the look on the neighbour’s face.
Andrea McLean
When my son was little I lived in a part of London where mums prided themselves on only cooking with organic vegetables.
I tried and tried to keep up with them, but one day when the dreaded paper plate was brought home from school with a cheerful message asking for something lovely to be baked for the next day, I cracked.
I bought a cheap sponge cake, squashed it slightly and sprinkled icing sugar on top. Simple. Job done.
The next time the paper plate came my way, I plonked a box of Mr Kiplings on it, wrapped in clingfilm.
The thrill of walking past all the mums who’d slaved all night over their Nigella recipes was like Bradley Cooper himself was patting me on the back...
ITV Coleen Nolan
Everyone knows about the time my son Shane Jr pocket-dialled me at 4am and I listened to him having sex. But that’s the least of it.
Poor Ciara, my youngest, has suffered most. I once sent her to school with nothing in her lunchbox then blamed her when the teacher rang.
The teacher wasn’t impressed because she was only seven.
Another time school rang to ask if I was picking her up.
I said: “Why is she ill?” They said: “No, it’s quarter to four. She finished at 3.10pm.” I thought it was still lunchtime.
The best was when we went to meet teachers for her GCSE subjects. The art teacher was hot.
She wasn’t taking art but I insisted we sat with him for 10 minutes. He was confused why we were there.
I gave him a little squeeze on the arm as I got up – just to feel the muscles!
Getty Fiona Phillips
Bad mum? Where do I start? Probably when my I forgot to get sons vaccinated.
Miraculously, they lived to tell the tale, but in doing so, had the misfortune of witnessing me throw up on a pavement in front of their FRIEND, following a very celebratory lunch. It was “food poisoning” – of course.
Can’t think why they still insist I once chucked up in FRONT of their FRIEND and lied to them. Once? Of course.
Unless you count the time I finished breakfast TV one morning, went for lunch and back to work at 4am – without going home.
I had, of course, been called out on a very important job. They understood.
Dr Miriam Stoppard
Sarah Monrose Dr Miriam Stoppard and daughter-in-law Linzi Stoppard
It was the start of a new term and I was getting the uniforms, PE kit etc ready for my four sons.
Each item had to have a name tape of the appropriate son attached to it, preferably neatly stitched.
It was midnight, I was tired and slightly resentful that I had to do this chore when I was working full time, so in a wholly crazy moment, I decided to staple on the aforesaid name tapes.
Yes, staple.
Well, they went rusty in the wash, they irritated my sons’ skin and the final insult came when the headmaster announced in morning prayers, “would the mother who stapled on name tapes kindly replace them with stitched-on name tapes like every other mother?”.
My son was mortified – and my name was mud.
Polly Hudson
Polly Hudson with son Albie
One of the most traumatic memories of my childhood is the day my mum forgot to pick me up from school.
I always swore that if I ever had a child, I’d make sure I’d never do anything like that to them.
When my son was two weeks old,
I decided to venture out on my own with him for the first time.
Determined to get it right, I rushed round packing nappies, wipes, a spare outfit, the kitchen sink – everything we could possibly need for any situation that might arise once we left the safety of home.
The worst thing is that I was actually pretty chuffed with myself, thinking how well I’d done as I trotted proudly down the street, pushing the pram.
Then I glanced down and discovered I had actually forgotten something – my son.
Siobhan McNally
Dave Hill Siobhan McNally and Jesse
Having had only seven years practice at being a mum to my daughter Jesse, I’ve not quite had time to perfect my parenting skills.
So far, there have been two missed parents’ evenings, one embarrassing mix-up where I’d emailed other mums complaining about having too much “schoolmin” and cc’ed the teacher in, and several occasions when I’ve just forgotten I’m a parent and haven’t picked her up from school.
But my favourite mum fail was the time I had to explain to a policeman that, no, of course, I didn’t mean it when I said “take yourself to school”, and she did.
But it’s Jesse who explains my parenting style best when she says to people who have apologised for bad language in front of her: “Oh it’s OK, my mum swears loads.”

Assange has not officially endorsed Trump's campaign but claims it has no links to Russian agents

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange slams Hillary Clinton's 'McCarthyite-style anti-Russian hysteria' and accuses her of 'demonising' Donald Trump campaign

www.mirror.co.uk

Julian Assange has made some very scathing comments against Hillary Clinton
Wikileaks founder Julian Assange has accused Hillary Clinton of being "hysterical" about Russia with a "kind of neo-McCarthyist" politics.
Speaking to Fox News via video-link from the Ecuadorian embassy in London, Assange said: "She has palled up with the neo-cons responsible for the Iraq war and she has grabbed onto a kind of neo-McCarthy hysteria about Russia and is using this to demonise the Trump campaign."
The Democratic presidential candidate accused Donald Trump at her latest rally in Reno, Nevada yesterday of having links to Vladimir Putin.
Getty Assange has been holed up in the Ecuadorian embassy since 2012
She referred to the Russian leader as the “grand godfather of this global brand of extreme nationalism" and said “Trump himself heaps praise on Putin and embraces pro-Russian policies".
Assange has not officially endorsed the trump campaign but said it has no links to Russian agents.
Wikileaks made around 20,000 Democratic National Committee email public last month, which appeared to reveals that top politicians attempted to derail the Bernie Sanders' nomination.
Getty Clinton accused the Russian president of 'extreme nationalism'
Clinton alleged that Russia was behind the DNC hack but hasn't provided evidence to back up her claims.
Assage has been holed-up in the embassy for four years, under constant police surveillance, after being granted asylum after Sweden called for him to be extradited over historic sexual assault claims.
He is wanted for questioning over allegations against two women in 2010 - which he has always denied.
Reuters Clinton has blamed Vladimir Putin for the email leak
However, he claims if he travels to Sweden the American government will secure his extradition over espionage charges related to his work for Wikileaks.
In February, a UN panel ruled that Assange has been “arbitrarily detained” in the Ecuadorian embassy in London.
Earlier this month he offered to be questioned inside the embassy but the Swedish prosecutors only recently agreed.

Perrie Edwards raised the temperature as she dived on her backing dancer for raunchy stage routine.
The Little Mix babe , who is now single, was snapped grinding against the hunk and jumping up on him as the girls powered through a fierce set at Newmarket racecourse in Suffolk, following their triumphant performance at V Festival last weekend.
Dressed in a black two piece, sheer top with a diamante design and fishnets, Perrie looked a million dollars and flicked her wavy hair as she smiled and gazed into the dancer's eyes. PHWOAR!
The pint-sized stunner cavorted on stage during the band's hits - and we imagine fans couldn't take their eyes off the pair, who are known to be great friends.

Perrie also featured in a sizzling selfie ahead of the show with Jesy Nelson last night, which was shared on Twitter, captioned: "This beauty xjesyx," along with eye heart emojis.
The star has confirmed she's been on a date with actor Luke Pasqualino, but insists she's still officially single after they were spotted going to see Aladdin in London's West End recently.
The good-looking pair, who were introduced by a mutual friend, then headed to celeb nightspot Mahiki with friends.
Fans were a little stunned to see them looking rather close in a selfie with pals on Instagram.

But she admitted she would still want to try speed-dating, with single band member Leigh-Anne Pinnock, who has split from her long-term boyfriend, Jordan Kiffin.
"I said in the group chat I'd love to do speed-dating, it'd be so much fun! Total jokes."

English Channel swimmer Nick Thomas dies during tragic attempt to cross to France

Swimmer Nick Thomas has died while trying to cross the English Channel.
The 45-year-old endurance athlete, from Ellesmere in Shropshire, had been swimming for around 16 hours when he got into difficulties, the Channel Swimming and Piloting Federation told the BBC.
A tweet from Enduroman events paid tribute to Mr Thomas, stating: "Our friend Nick Thomas left us whilst doing what he loved - he just kept going. He'll always be a part of what we do and who we are."
Rescuers pulled him out of the water 10 miles from the coast of Calais and administered CPR, but he later died in hospital.
The veteran Ironman and Ultraman triathlete was crowned Enduroman #19 in 2014, according to the Shropshire Star.
His last tweet on August 15 read: "On standby and Still awaiting a chance to start swim, new tides start today and weather dictates there will be no swimmers in near future."
Before that, on August 4, he wrote: "Morning dip, just ticking over awaiting judgement day."

A Foreign Office spokesman told the BBC: "We are offering assistance to the family of a British national following his death in Calais, France."
It is believed eight people have died trying to swim the English Channel.
The first was a Spanish man in 1926. In July 2012 Páraic Casey, 45, a member of the Sandycove Swimming Club in Cork, Ireland, got into difficulty just 1km from the coast of France. Attempts to resuscitate him by crew on the boat and medics flown in by a French rescue helicopter were unsuccessful.
Susan Taylor, 34, died a mile from the French coast on 14 July 2013 while swimming the Channel to raise money for charity.
She suffered an acute cardio-respiratory collapse and was pulled from the water by support crew, but could not be resuscitated.

Murder victim's mum slams landlady who tried to rent out her home EIGHT DAYS after brutal killing
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

Jennifer Williams was killed by Stefan Mayne at her flat in Bournemouth
A murdered woman’s landlady tried to rent out the victim’s home just eight days after she was stabbed to death.
Jane Naylor sent in decorators and threatened to throw out the personal effects of 25-year old Jennifer Williams if her mum did not remove them.
Shocked police tried to delay Ms Naylor, who launched her makeover despite having six weeks’ advance rent from the victim.
Jennifer’s grieving mum Louise Rogers, 51, told the Sunday People: “I just told the landlady she disgusts me.
“I cannot believe how heartless she has been.”
Jennifer was repeatedly stabbed at her flat in Bournemouth, Dorset, on June 21 last year by a man who had become obsessed with her.
pressgangnews Doting mum Louise Rogers with daughter Jennifer Williams before her murder last June
Ms Naylor, a religious education teacher, enlisted letting agents to show a prospective client around the property eight days later on June 29.
A detective sergeant who checked the property on July 10 was shocked to find decorators working on it and Jennifer’s possessions dumped in heaps in the middle of rooms.
Louise said: “It was heartbreaking because those belongings, her clothes, her treasured possessions were all that were left of my daughter.
“How dare they touch and move her things without letting me see them first?
“Those weren’t just things to me, they were all reminders of what had been taken and that woman just didn’t care. How would she feel if that was her daughter?”
BBC Police forensic tent at house where Stefan Mayne launched his frenzied attack
Jennifer’s rent had been paid in advance until the end of July. But Louise was bluntly told by Ms Naylor that her daughter’s personal effects would be tossed out by July 18 if she didn’t remove them.
Angry Louise added: “I don’t understand why the landlady, who is a teacher and supposed to be a pillar of the community, couldn’t show a bit of compassion in the light of what had happened to my daughter. Most people would be reasonable and
allow the family of someone who was murdered to have a few days to sort things out.
“It’s still flabbergasting to think she had been in and had her decorators in within a few days.
BNPS Heartbroken Louise Rogers with picture of daughter Jennifer
“I spoke to a solicitor at the time and was told that I could take her to court for trespass, but there was so much else going on. My daughter had just been murdered.
"I still don’t know if any of Jen’s things were thrown out, but I do know that what was left had been treated with utter contempt.”
Det Sgt Mark Jenkins wrote to Ms Naylor: “When I arrived all of her possessions had been unceremoniously piled into the centre of the rooms.
“It also transpires that some viewings had taken place over the weekend.
"This caused Louise to postpone her visit. I understand the need to re-let the property but these are exceptional circumstances. All I ask is that some sensitivity is shown.”
Facebook Landlady Jane Naylor complained to police about the clean-up of her home after the killing
Astonishingly, Ms Naylor replied to the CID officer: “Your cleaning team have missed splatters of blood which I have cleaned off myself and there are purple blobs on my wooden floor.
“I have instructed the letting agents to contact Jennifer’s family and advise them that removal of Jennifer’s belongings from my property must take place by Saturday 18 July.”
When asked by the Sunday People for a comment, Ms Naylor claimed she was not aware of the upset caused by the decorators.
pressgang news Stefan Mayne is now serving a life sentence
She said: “I thought that you were here to talk about the police complaint that I had put in about the bad clear-up.
“The police clear-up is the issue here, which is nothing to do with me.”
Letting agents Fox & Sons held their own investigation and confirmed that what had happened was totally unacceptable and apologised unreservedly.
Jennifer’s killer, Stefan Mayne, 26, was jailed for a minimum 27 years.

Kim Kardashian couldn't help but let out a giggle as she stopped by her husband Kanye West's latest exhibit.
The reality star was pictured breaking into a smile as she leaned over naked replicas of 12 celebrities - including Taylor Swift.
The jaw-dropping lookalikes were used in the video for Kanye's controversial track, Famous.
Dressed in a black mesh jumpsuit which flaunted her figure, Kim grabbed pictures of the plastic models as she stood beside sister Kendall.

The exhibit also features a naked Kim, Kanye, Caitlyn Jenner, Donald Trump and Anna Wintour.
Famous is the song which reignited Kanye's bitter feud with Shake It Off star Taylor.
Kanye and Taylor clashed over the lyrics, in which she was referred to as "that b**ch".
Kim, 35, later released a video which showed Kanye and Taylor talking about the song, and Kanye reading her the line: "I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex."
Kanye then insists her feelings are his priority when it comes to his music: "What I give a f*** about is just you as a person and as a friend, I want things that make you feel good I don't want to do rap that makes people feel bad."
Reacting to the track, Taylor can then be heard saying: "Go with whatever line you think is better. It's obviously very tongue in cheek either way. And I really appreciate you telling me about it, that's really nice!"
Getty Kim Kardashian and Kendall Jenner pose for the cameras
Taylor later insisted she was never given the full story about the song, and was never told about the "that b**ch" line.
Speaking previously about the video, Kanye shared: “It’s not in support or anti any of [the people in the video].
“It’s a comment on fame. We were very careful with shots that had [something] sexual to take them out."
But Kanye appeared to taunt the subjects of his video as he tweeted: "Can somebody sue me already #I'll wait."

Jack Wilshere to leave Arsenal on loan: The 10 funniest Twitter reactions
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

"Yeah, sure boss. Spending my winter with Middlesbrough sounds just peachy"
God bless Arsene Wenger. When it comes to keeping the world entertained during a transfer window, the Arsenal boss really is the best in the business.
First, he makes Arsenal fans SO angry at his lack of transfer activity, their furious ranting becomes the talk of the internet. Then, after refusing to spend money for ages, he suddenly goes on a mad splurge, leaving slightly baffled Gooners once again the focus of everyone's attention.
And then, just when you think he's done, he decides at the last minute that Jack Wilshere - Mr Arsenal - is to be sent out on loan.
So how has the world reacted to the news that Wilshere, the midfielder who was once going to be the saviour of English football, is being farmed out to a lesser side for the rest of this season?
We'll give you three guesses…
Some Arsenal fans can already see what is almost inevitably going to happen later this season
When we loan out Wilshere and have to play Glen Kamara & the Ox in midfield in January after another injury crisis.. https://t.co/7jWGRJSIil — MQ (@MQ_AFC) August 29, 2016

Tottenham fans have some very specific thoughts
Jack Wilshere out on loan but yeah Arsenal fans he is the best ever... pic.twitter.com/DKRPy2JWiV — Harry C (@HazSpur92) August 29, 2016
As do Chelsea supporters
Wenger was worried about being able to pay the 600 Arsenal employees. He gets rid of Wilshere and loses 100 medical people. Genius move! — Chelsea HQ (@Chelsea_HQ) August 29, 2016
And Man United fans, while we're at it
Wilshere/Jones swap loan deal. At least it'll spice things up for the physios. — United Religion (@Unitedology) August 29, 2016
I'd definitely sign Wilshere on loan. We need to give Jones some company in the hospital. — Sir Alex Way (@MUFC_linkup) August 30, 2016
In inadvertently hilarious news, Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest fans seem to think they have a shot at getting him to play in the Championship
He will probably go to a Premier League club but I'd love Wilshere to join #avfc if he stayed fit, would be unreal for us. — iLukas (@iLukasx100) August 30, 2016
Surely NFFC should get Wilshere on loan? I mean we made Ramsey the player he is today send him our way Wenger #Wilshere #nffc #afc — George (@George1930) August 30, 2016
But most of all, people are all making the same physio/medical/injury gag
I see Jack Wilshere is wanting to be loaned to another club's medical department — James Whittaker (@northstokie) August 30, 2016
Arsenal are allowing Jack Wilshere out on loan so some other club can treat his injuries pic.twitter.com/pi9j8YTDix — Football Daily (@footballdailyuk) August 29, 2016

The video above shows the shocking moment a West Ham fan appears to punch a fellow supporter in the face during the Hammers' Europa League tie against Astra Giurgiu.
Filmed by an onlooker, the footage appears to show one supporter being escorted from a home stand by two stewards.
However, as he passes a particularly aggrieved fan the pair the burst into a heated exchange.
The man standing then punches the escorted supporter in the face while he's being held by the two stewards.
More punches are thrown from the same individual as the stewards look on helplessly.
The man being punched is taken further down the stand and has another heated exchange with a different fan, again, while the stewards looked on.
Rex A sour result was marked with acts of violence in the stands
The video comes only days after West Ham and Bournemouth fans fought outside the London Stadium on Sunday.

West Ham went on to lose the game 1-0 (1-2 agg) and were subsequently knocked out by Astra Giurgiu for a second successive year.
After the game, Bilic said: "I'm angry and frustrated but I'm much more disappointed than anything else because we wanted to go through to the Europa League.
"I am not going to lose faith in the players after one game, but we are missing some of our top quality players."

Loose Women stunned by mum who sleeps NAKED with her 16 year old son and criticised 'blurred boundaries'
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
The ITV's Loose Women stars were shocked after learning of an anonymous mum who still sleeps naked in the same bed as her teenage son.
Andrea McLean and the panel - completed by Jane Moore, Sherrie Hewson and Coleen Nolan - discussed the question, which was posted on Q&A website Quora and received over half a million views and thousands of replies.
Asked if it was wrong, Sherrie said: "I'm afraid yes it is. Absolutely it is. That son is going through all sorts of things himself, without any complications."
ITV Sherrie slammed the decision
ITV The panel agreed the lines can be blurred
ITV However, being naked is a step too far
Admitting she didn't know if she was being "prudish", the star added "it has to be wrong".
The panel agreed that sharing a bed is fine to a certain point, but there comes a time when things should change - and pyjamas should be a necessity.
ITV Sherrie pointed out the things the teenage boy will be going through
ITV Andrea added it could "confuse things"
ITV Coleen would do it "in a million years"
"There could be some blurred boundaries that could confuse things," Andrea said. "It's different if your child is poorly or upset."
Coleen pointed out that living arrangement - "a one bedroom flat" - could excuse sharing a bet, but insisted it was the clothing issue.
ITV She said sharing a bed would be fine depending on living arrangements
ITV She also discussed different attitudes to nakedness
ITV Jane added that by asking the question, the woman must think it isn't right
"Maybe they live in a one bedroom flat, fine. But naked... Not in a million years... I would never be naked," she explained.
Meanwhile, Jane added: "If she's asking the question, then obviously in her mind she's thinking this isn't right."

Kaley Cuoco shares 8 Simple Rules reunion with co-stars and touching John Ritter tribute
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Kaley Cuoco has treated fans to an amazing reunion as she posed for a picture with her former 8 Simple Rules co-stars - minus the late John Ritter.
The Big Bang Theory actress made her name as ditzy blonde Bridget across three series of the popular ABC comedy until it came to an end in 2005.
More than a decade later, Kaley looks to still be on great terms with former cast mates Katey Sagal, Amy Davidson and Martin Spanjers, who played her mum Kate and siblings Kerry and Rory respectively.
In a cute black and white snap, the quartet are beaming as they pose with Amy's firstborn son Lennox, whom she had in March with husband Kacy Lockwood.
Kaley wrote: "A little #8simplerules reunion party today with a tiny addition @kateylous @martinspanjers @amy_davidson #lennoxsawyerlockwood (someone is smiling down on us)! (sic)"
8 Simple Rules cast
She was referring to actor Ritter, who played dad Paul Hennessy before his tragic death midway through the second series.
Already a star from his time on Three's Company, he passed away in 2003 from a misdiagnosed thoracic aortic aneurysm.
Then 54, the actor was rushed straight to a hospital from a rehearsal for the sitcom.
The programme addressed his death with the passing of his character, while James Garner and David Spade joined the cast as Sagal's father and the kids' cousin respectively.

Thierry Henry begins Belgium coaching role as Michy Batshuayi purrs he is learning from the best

Thierry Henry has been praised by Chelsea striker Michy Batshuayi after taking his first session as a coach with the Belgian national team.
The former Arsenal and Barcelona great was handed a role on new Red Devils boss Roberto Martinez's coaching staff and the squad have assembled for the first time under the new regime.
Belgium suffered a disappointing quarter-final exit to Wales in Euro 2016 this summer, which resulted in Marc Wilmots losing his job.
And prior to the double-header against Spain and Cyprus, Chelsea forward Batshuayi has been quick to sing the Frenchman's praises.
Not sure I ever listened to my parents like this #Titi #LearnFromTheBest pic.twitter.com/kG3QV5xhLm — Michy Batshuayi (@mbatshuayi) August 29, 2016
"Not sure I ever listened to my parents like this," he tweeted, along with the hashtag #LearnFromTheBest.
Henry was pictured deep in conversation with Batshuayi and fellow Premier League stars Christian Benteke and Eden Hazard during the session, ahead of the friendly with Spain on Thursday and World Cup qualifier against Cyprus the following Tuesday.

The Spaniard was quick to add the former French World Cup winner to his backroom team and Henry has admitted that he hopes this is the latest step on the ladder to full management for him.

Getty Thierry Henry works with Christian Benteke
"Let's see how far we go but yes, eventually, if you work well and you go through the right process then maybe one day, why not (I'll become a manager).
"You need to understand you can do it. The team has the quality to do it. We all know how hard it is to make a team be a team but that is the aim."

The day has finally come for Emma Willis to get her weekends back.
And she certainly knows how to bow out in style as she prepares to wave goodbye to this series of Celebrity Big Brother .
Keeping her usual dark colours, the presenter looked stunning, if a little demure, in a smart trouser and top combo.
Opting to show off some skin in a black bardot top, Emma revealed her décolletage as the top dropped off her shoulders.
Channel 5 Emma is werking it
Teaming it with some high-waisted navy cropped trousers, Emma was completely owning the look.
Adding some drama with her red eyeshadow and backcombed hair, she looked ready for whatever the night is going to throw at her.
Giving her Instagram followers an insight into her beauty prep before the show, she posted: "And so the hours of 'slap' begin.. Almost #cbbuk final time!! thank you @amandahbowen you are the best."
Meanwhile, all eyes will be on Emma's exit interviews after she was criticised for her line of questioning when Chloe Khan was evicted.
When Heavy D left the house, Emma admitted during his exit chat: "I'm picking and choosing my words carefully so they don't give me s*** on Twitter again!"

Social worker Lesley Bate was involved in the care of Liam Fee
A social worker involved in the case of murdered tot Liam Fee was branded “chaotic and erratic” by her boss as she faces charged over her care of 16 children .
Lesley Bate faces 13 charges over her role as a social worker with Fife Council from December 2011 to August 2014, the Daily Record reported .
Bate, 60, was a member of the Glenrothes Child Protection Team who managed Liam’s case before he was murdered by his mother and her civil partner at their home in Thornton, Fife, in March 2014.
Giving evidence at the Scottish Social Services Council, boss James Ross described Bate as “disorganised”, “chaotic” and “the most erratic person I have worked with”.
Daily Record Liam Fee was murdered by his mother and her partner
He added: “She absolutely could not understand risk ... and I had a real concern about her visiting families.”
When asked why Bate was allocated work despite his fears, Mr Ross said she was only given easy cases that weren’t “the most intense”.
One charge against Bate is she failed to follow up a childminder’s concerns about bruising to the face of a one-year-old boy, labelled FF in anonymised documents, on January 15, 2013.
Rachel and Nyomi Fee as they leave court during their trial
During the murder trial of Rachel and Nyomi Fee, childminder Heather Farmer told the court she contacted the Scottish Childminding Association in January 2013 after Liam turned up with scratches and bruises to his face.
She also ignored concerns about the toddler’s neck after he was dropped off at her home on February 18, 2013.
Bate faces charges over 16 children. The hearing was told Bate has “relinquished” her registration as a social worker with the SSSC but doesn’t admit any of the charges.
The hearing is expected to run until Friday.

There wasn't a dry eye in the room as single mum Rebekah Ryan auditioned for the X Factor on Sunday night, and told a heartbreaking story that echoed in her performance.
The 40-year-old, from Tamworth , left Sharon Osbourne in tears as she belted out Angel by Sarah McLachlan, having explained to the judges that she tragically lost her son when he was just three years old.
Rebekah, who lives with her parents, had previously been signed to a record label and even had a single that charted in the top 30, but after failing to make her success last, she decided to give the X Factor a go 23 years after she first became a star.
Syco / Thames / Dymond Rebekah Ryan told her tragic story on the X Factor
It's been 14 years since her little boy Ethan died. He was born with a rare brain disease after she and her record producer husband Johnny Douglas both had genetic faults which were passed on to Ethan.
He was born with Sandhoff Syndrome and was unable to speak, walk or see. Ethan was expected to die at age two but he fought on until he was three and a half and died in July 2002.
At his funeral, a teddy bear sat on top of a small white coffin and the family released 100 balloons with his name on into the air as a tribute.
The memories of Ethan's death were brought rushing back to Rebekah when she told the judges that she's a single mum to seven-year-old Seb, and that she had another son who died.

She sang Hozier's Take Me To Church, but was stopped by Simon Cowell who said that it felt too rushed. Nicole Scherzinger added that the performance felt desperate.
With her second song, Angel, she wowed the judges and moved Sharon to tears.
Simon then said: "I felt every word of that. You’re a fighter. What you told me was very emotional. Every step of the way we were with you."

A choked-up Sharon added: "You gave a very passionate performance. You came from a place of emotion. And when you started to tell your story... you’re going to start me off."
Louis, who knew Rebekah from her time in the music industry, agreed, saying: "You sang from the heart and I believed every word of it."
Rebekah has now made it through to Bootcamp, but could struggle with her confidence.
Speaking earlier on the X Factor she said: "I was signed to MCA at 17, a huge thing to happen for me. When you’re dropped it stripped away every bit of confidence I had.
"At a young age I felt like such a failure. You have to rebuild yourself. Life as a single mum is quite hard. The past year has been tough. This could be a new beginning, to prove to my son that mummy’s got it.
"Singing is all I know how to do, it’s my love and passion."

Ed Balls gives both barrels to Jeremy Corbyn AND Ed Miliband in no-holds-barred memoirs
| null | null |

Ed Balls does not have kind words for Ed Miliband
Ed Balls gave Labour's two most recent leaders both barrels today after voters torpedoed his 20-year Westminster career.
The ex-shadow chancellor blasted Jeremy Corbyn 's "leftist utopian fantasy" AND Ed Miliband's "astonishingly dysfunctional" campaign - as he shifts his own ambitions to a stint on Strictly.
The attacks were revealed in Mr Balls' memoirs, published 15 months after he lost his Morley and Outwood seat in the biggest shock of Labour's 2015 election bloodbath.
He took a stateside job at Harvard University after the humiliation but is returning to flaunt his moves on the BBC's Strictly Come Dancing.
In the autobiography, Speaking Out, he chronicles the end of a top-flight political career that began in 1994 when he became Gordon Brown's advisor.
Getty And Mr Balls accused Jeremy Corbyn of living in a 'leftist utopian fantasy'
He claimed Mr Miliband "kept me at a distance" in the run-up to May 2015 and the pair "probably only spoke twice" in the four-week campaign.
"That was astonishingly dysfunctional when I compare it to how Tony [Blair] and Gordon [Brown] worked," he wrote.
Mr Miliband only rang Mr Balls after he lost his seat and his wife, the MP Yvette Cooper, had to persuade him to pick up because his reaction was "what's the point?".
He wrote: "Ed Miliband's team had prepared scripts for every eventuality except the one we were facing."
When Mr Miliband failed to mention the deficit in a crucial 2014 conference speech, his shadow chancellor admitted he "zoned out" because he was trying to keep smiling for TV cameras.
Julian Hamilton/Daily Mirror Ed Balls, pictured on the campaign trail, is now preparing to take his fight to Strictly
He only clocked when he was told afterwards and experienced "disbelief, astonishment, fury and sympathy, imagining how angry Ed would be at himself."
He wrote: "The omissions were a symbol of Labour not being willing to face up to the problems the country was worried about, and proof that we were trying to brush difficult issues under the carpet.
"We weren't ready - and didn't deserve - to return to government".
But the heaviest fire in the extracts from Mr Balls' memoirs, serialised in The Times, was saved for Jeremy Corbyn .
He attacked the left-winger for relying on his faithful rather than the voting public.
Daily Mirror Mr Balls admitted he 'zoned out' when Ed Miliband failed to mention the deficit
He wrote: "Refusing to listen to the electorate has never been a winning formula, any more than Jeremy Corbyn thinking the volume of cheering from your core supporters is a reliable guide to wider public opinion.
"Caution will not win the day; but nor will Jeremy Corbyn's leftist utopian fantasy, devoid of connection to the reality of people's lives."
In the wide-ranging memoirs, Mr Balls recalled how he hid seeing a speech therapist to combat his stammer - until another man with the condition branded him a coward.
And he admitted he'd made a string of mistakes himself, from infamously tweeting his own name to committing a traffic offence by taking an at-the-wheel call from Gordon Brown.

Rapist asked victim 'which knife do you want to die with' during terrifying sex attack

Shaun Sinclair has been jailed for eight years
An evil rapist who lined up knives on a table and asked one of his victims which one she "wanted to die with" is now behind bars.
Shaun Sinclair - once a murder trial witness whose evidence helped snare three killers - was jailed for eight years for raping two women.
The 23 year-old returned to the High Court in Glasgow to be sentenced after he was convicted last month, the Daily Record reported .
A judge told him he was guilty of "truly despicable behaviour".
Sinclair was also be monitored for four years after his release.
Just two years ago, his testimony led to three people being jailed for the torture and killing of a vulnerable man in North Ayrshire.
Sinclair was a vital prosecution witness in describing how Scott Blackwood, 30, was brutally attacked before attempts were made to set him on fire.
Allan Nicol, 36, and Thomas Moore, 26, were locked up for murder while Georgina Smith, 22, was jailed for culpable homicide.
But Sinclair ended up in the dock himself after women revealed how they suffered at his hands.
Google Sinclair was jailed at Glasgow High Court
He raped a former partner in April 2014 having earlier had sex with her when she was only 15.
Sinclair regularly cheated with other women - but the victim admitted she would "jump off a bridge" for him.
He struck after initially ordering her out a flat in Glasgow's southside before demanding she return.
As she entered, kitchen knives were spread on the table - Sinclair told her to pick the one she wanted to die with.
In his speech to the jury, prosecutor Bruce Erroch said: "What calculating behaviour ... I say it borders on sadism."
Sinclair subjected the woman to a brutal attack before going on to rape her.
The woman did go to the police but controlling Sinclair made her withdraw the allegation.
He raped her again on Christmas Eve 2014 - after leaving her to go and have sex with a neighbour.
The woman recalled him coming into their Ayrshire flat looking "dead vicious ... making gestures as though he was going to kill me".
He trashed the flat before dragging her by the hair yelling: "You are making me do this".
Sinclair also raped another woman at a house in Girvan, South Ayrshire in January 2013.
He attacked her after smashing up the property. The woman had tried to calm him down, but, instead, Sinclair grabbed her wrists and forced himself on her.
Sinclair was convicted of having unlawful sex, assault and rape against the first woman.
He was found guilty of raping the second woman as well as physically assaulting a third female at a flat in Largs, North Ayrshire in April 2012.
Sinclair was further found guilty of having sex with another 15 year-old girl in 2013.
Judge Norman Ritchie QC told him: "Your behaviour was truly despicable.
"Violent offences, vicious assaults ... a clear course of conduct against young women who had the misfortune to know you in life."

His career may be winding down in the Dutch league.
But 36-year-old Dirk Kuyt proved he hasn't lost it just yet with two blinding goals in Feyenoord's 4-1 dismantling of their Rotterdam rivals Excelsior.
It could have been a frustrating night for the Liverpool legend, who watched his first real effort come back off the post.
But as the Eredivisie leaders continued to press, Kuyt found his form to equalise just before half time.
Dirk Kuyt volleys past the keeper to make it 1-1
Getting on the end of a looping pass, the club captain punished the Excelsior defence for not closing him down quickly enough by volleying past the keeper.
Kuyt continued to dazzle after the break to put his team in the lead.

Bringing a long ball down on his chest on the edge of the area, Kuyt continued into the box.
He then watched as the ball dropped towards his foot before smashing it across the keeper and into the back of the net.

The stunning effort seemed to crush Excelsior's spirit as they conceded two more - courteous of Steven Berghuis and Jens Toornstra - in the next six minutes.

Brendan Rodgers singles out keeper Dorus de Vries' "control" after commanding win over Aberdeen
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

Brendan Rodgers claimed the controlling nature of goalkeeper Dorus de Vries lay behind the Celtic manager dropping Craig Gordon for the Hoops' 4-1 win over Aberdeen at Parkhead.
The Celtic boss gave a debut to 35-year-old Dutchman De Vries, who recently signed a two-year deal from Nottingham Forest having worked with Rodgers at Swansea.
And although he was beaten by an Adam Rooney strike after Leigh Griffiths had opened the scoring in the first half it mattered little as the home side stormed to the top of the Ladbrokes Premiership table.
SNS Celtic's Dorus de Vries was key to their victory over Aberdeen, says Brendan Rodgers
PA Rodgers has brought in a keeper he knows well to help with his project at Parkhead
Midfielder James Forrest restored Celtic's lead in the 42nd minute and with three minutes remaining Scott Sinclair grabbed the third with a penalty with Dons defender Mark Reynolds sent off for picking up a second yellow card after bringing him down.
Australian Tom Rogic added a last-gasp fourth.
Rodgers said: "I always say my teams need to play with control from behind in order for us to play how I want us to play and have that speed and domination in the game.
"And I thought Dorus came in and did very well.
"He had one loose pass but apart from that, he is able to orchestrate the game from behind.

"But overall I thought he and the team were outstanding.
"I just always think if you can control the game and build the game from behind well, then you will control and build in other areas.
"The quicker it goes forward from behind the quicker it comes back at you, and that has always been my thought.
"I want to reiterate, Craig Gordon has been fantastic since he came here.
"In fairness to him, there has been a lot of unfair focus on him.
"Dorus knows how I work inside out and I am sure Craig Gordon will get an opportunity again.
"Whether that comes the next game, or after, he will be better for this way of working."

VIEW GALLERY WBA XI: Foster; Dawson, McAuley, Evans, Galloway; Yacob, Fletcher; Phillips, Field, McClean; Rondon WBA Subs: Rose; Olsson, Gardner, Lambert, Berahino, Leko, Wilson Middlesbrough XI: Guzan; Nsue, Ayala, Gibson, Barragan; Forshaw, Clayton; Stuani, Ramirez, Downing; Negredo. Middlesbrough Subs: Dimi, Bernardo, Rhodes, Reach, Fischer, De Sart, Nugent
13:49 19 mins - West Brom win a corner. Rondon delivers and it’s headed wide of the target by Evans. That early intensity seems to have vacated the ground. Pulis cuts a passive figure in the dugout.
13:46 16 mins - West Brom’s passing exchange is suddenly cut out by Barragan, who releases Negredo. Negredo turns Phillips and he’s away, sprinting and hugging the touchline. He cuts inside but can’t get a shot away with Evans on hand to hoof back upfield. In the space of a few seconds, we see the best and worst of West Brom.
13:45 15 mins - Field and Fletcher are controlling the game well. The youngster is providing mobility while Fletcher pivots and picks his pass. Boro are chasing shadows. Reuters
13:43 12 mins - McClean plays a nice exchange with Fletcher and on the over-lap, tests Guzan from close-range. West Brom continue their bright start and The Hawthorns faithful are getting excited. Barragan’s clearance is only as far as Phillips, who starts another attack for the hosts. Reuters
13:40 10 mins - Stuani, the two-goal hero in the derby win over Sunderland, is getting into this game. The Uruguay international loses his marker Galloway and floats a cross into the box. There are no Boro players to meet what is a very decent delivery.
13:38 7 mins - Boro seem to have got their bearings. Nsue releases Stuani down the wing but it’s knocked out by Evans. Boro take the throw in and keep up the pressure in the Baggies’ half. No one is getting more than a moment on the ball.
13:35 4 mins - Rondon pounces on a misplaced pass from Ramirez. He shoots but it’s blocked by Gibson. Boro clear but West Brom get possession back. McClean makes a run from midfield, progresses about 40 yards before being mobbed by Boro’s defence. High tempo stuff from Tony Pulis’ men. Did I just say that?
13:32 2 mins - Early booking for Ayala. He scythes down Galloway after the West Brom full back had made a surging run down the flank. Free kick to the Baggies which Rondon takes. Guzan fists it away clear and Downing is on hand to hoof it off field. Promising start from the hosts.
13:30 Kick-Off 1 mins - We’re underway here at The Hawthorns. Can the hosts make amends for their EFL Cup exit at Northampton Town in midweek? Middlesbrough will be looking to do the same, having also been dumped out of the competition by Championship side Fulham!

12:27 Kane Wilson West Brom boss Tony Pulis says he has no qualms about drafting 16-year-old Kane Wilson into his starting line-up against Middlesbrough. The defender made his senior debut in Tuesday’s EFL Cup defeat at Northampton Town and should he appear against Boro, he will become the first person born in the 21st century to play in the Premier League. Wilson’s chances of starting against Aitor Karanka’s men are boosted by the injury to Brendan Galloway. The full back, on loan from Everton, is struggling to overcome a hamstring problem. Asked if he was hesitant about throwing Wilson in at the deep end, Pulis replied: “No, not at all, he’s a fantastic lad. Kane needs work in certain areas, because he still gets flat on the ball and his positional sense at times is poor but he is only 16 and when you look at his attributes, he’s a very good athlete.” The Welshman added: “I really do think he has a bright future but as I have said - and I have had him into my office on numerous occasions - it is about keeping your feet on the ground and not getting carried away.” Getty

Mum's brave breast cancer battle led to a secret Las Vegas wedding

www.mirror.co.uk

After Sylvia told Darren he could leave he married her instead
When nurse Sylvia Jellyman was told she had breast cancer , she knew she faced the battle of her life – so she gave her boyfriend permission to leave her.
The mum of two, 41, told him she did not expect him to stick around, knowing her gruelling treatment would put pressure on their fragile family set-up.
She told the Sunday People : “I loved Darren but realised it was a lot for him to take on. I wrote him a card saying, ‘Things will get tough from now on. I understand if it’s too much.’”
But the cancer only kicked Darren, 51, into action. And, instead of driving them apart, it led to him planning a secret Las Vegas wedding.
Darren, a mortgage complaint handler, had been as floored as she had by the diagnosis.
Sylvia and Darren didn't let cancer come between them
She said: “I just didn’t understand it. I was fit, exercised, didn’t have any family history.
“Darren and I both have children from previous marriages . Life as a blended family hadn’t been easy but Darren’s patience helped to bind us.
"Then cancer came out of the blue. I felt like a burden. I feared it’d be too much to take on.”
After having a lump removed, Sylvia started chemo and radiotherapy.
“My hair fell out in clumps. I felt so unattractive. But he told me I looked beautiful.
Darren planned a fabulous surprise for Sylvia in Las Vegas (Pic:Getty Images)
“I didn’t want my children to see me upset so we tried to make it fun. We shaved it off and Darren vacuumed my head.
"The kids were in hysterics. I tried to laugh too – determined not to make them sad or scared.”
It was during these dark times that she turned to a journal she kept to document her journey.
“I wrote early on saying I had so much to live for and all the lovely things Darren said to me. I read it when I felt low and it gave me strength. I knew I was guilty of taking life for granted.”
Determined to grasp every moment, Sylvia started ticking off dreams on a bucket list: taking up rowing, seeing the Northern Lights, visiting Las Vegas.
So the couple, who had been together four years, booked a trip to Sin City to celebrate the end of her treatment. But Darren had a surprise up his sleeve.
Getty Darren had a real surprise up his sleeve
“Days before, he said, ‘Why don’t we get married in secret in Vegas?’ I couldn’t believe it.”
Sylvia’s children Alex,13, and Laura, 15, and Darren’s two, Stacey,28, and Sam, 25, did not suspect a thing.
So last July, seven months after her treatment, they wed in an emotional ceremony.
Sylvia said: “Darren was shaking when he saw me coming down the aisle. It meant the world for us to get married.
“He’s been my rock.”
Afterwards, they called their children to break the news.
She said: “I felt so excited. What a secret to keep. They were shocked but so happy.”
Married life has not been without its challenges. Sylvia is now on the cancer prevention drug Tamoxifen, a side effect of which is an early menopause.
She said: “It has affected my sex drive. Darren has been as supportive as ever, reassuring me that it’s not an issue.
“He is my strength. He’s supported me unconditionally and is everything I ever wanted in a husband.”

£20 - how much more money millions of us need EVERY WEEK just to pay the bills

Every week millions of us just get poorer
Families' spending power is typically £10-a-week stronger than a year ago - but while the highest-earning households have seen significant improvements those on low incomes are still struggling to find any spare cash, a report has found.
The average disposable income for UK households reached £202 a week in July, marking a £10 increase on a year earlier, according to Asda's Income Tracker.
While the richest 20% of households have seen their spending power increase by £27 per week compared with a year ago, the poorest 20% of households have seen no increase compared with July 2015, the report, compiled by the Centre for Economics and Business Research (Cebr), found.
Getty Food banks are the only way some people are coping
It said the average household of the top 20% of earners had a gross income of just under £1,890 a week in July 2016. This is more than 10 times the average of those in the bottom 20%, who earn less than £180 a week.
The gross income of the highest earning households has grown by 2.3% since July 2015, compared with a 0.3% increase for the poorest fifth of households, the report said.
A household's spending power is the amount of cash left over for discretionary spending after essentials such as food, clothing, transport costs, healthcare and housing costs.
Despite the general increase in spending power, the rise of just over 5% over the past year is the weakest rate of growth seen since October 2014.
The richest fifth of households typically have £684 of weekly disposable income left after essentials have been taken into account, while the spending power of the poorest fifth of households is in negative territory.
They have a £20-a-week shortfall in the amount needed just to cover essentials, researchers said.
Getty Do you have enough to cover your bills
The main pressure on household incomes in July came from rising costs of essential items, the report said.
Transport costs, such as fuel, provided one of the main sources of upward pressure. Alcohol prices also rose 0.5% between June and July compared with a fall of 2.5% at the same point a year ago. And prices in restaurants and hotels now stand 2.7% higher than a year ago.
Falls in the value of the pound following the vote to leave the EU could lead to higher import prices over the coming months, which is likely to have a knock-on effect on inflation levels as 2017 approaches, the report warned.
A separate Bank of England report showed that the growth in borrowing on personal loans and overdrafts by consumers weakened in July. Experts said this could be a significant sign that consumers may be looking to cut back their borrowing amid increased uncertainties following the Brexit vote.
Sam Alderson, an economist at Cebr, said: "The continued improvements in household finances have helped families shrug off much of the post-Brexit concern that has plagued businesses and financial markets. However, the outlook may not be so bright as rising inflation through into 2017 could place significant pressure on household budgets."

Everton star Ross Barkley insists ex-England boss Roy Hodgson should have shown faith in him at Euro 2016

Nothing else: Barkley only saw time on the training field in France
Ross Barkley believes Roy Hodgson should have shown faith in him at Euro 2016 - but has vowed to use that disappointment as motivation to kick on to the next level.
The Everton midfielder was named in Hodgson's 23-man squad for the tournament in France but did not see any action as England suffered an embarrassing exit at the hands of Iceland.
Barkley was one of only two outfield players not used by Hodgson, who stepped down immediately after the last-16 defeat.
"I'd played a lot in the qualifiers, scored as many as the midfielders there at the time and was devastated I didn't get any game time," Barkley said in an interview with The Times.
Action Images via Reuters Regular: Barkley had seen plenty of action during the qualifiers...
Michael Regan - The FA ...But didn't see a single minute of action in France
"Roy could have shown more faith in me.
"I was working my hardest - doing double sessions - but wasn't playing. I felt I wasn't important to the squad and that's not a nice feeling.
"I'd never like to be in that position again. I'm going to use what happened in the summer to kick me on this season to get to the next level which I believe I'll get to."
Getty Stood down: Hodgson immediately ended his stewardship after defeat to Iceland
REUTERS Strong start: Barkley has impressed under Ronald Koeman so far
The FA via Getty New era: Sam Allardyce will look to restore the Three Lions pride
New England boss Sam Allardyce names his first squad on Sunday - for a World Cup qualifier against Slovakia on September 4 - which Barkley is likely to feature in after a strong start to the season with Everton.
And the 22-year-old is excited to work with the former Sunderland boss.
Barkley added: "Sam's positive. He's a winner. I played against his Sunderland team (on May 11). They weren't in the greatest form, were battling relegation, but they were solid and won 3-0.
"You can see he has a winner's mentality and that will be great for England."

Football Manager 2017: Release date, new features and everything you need to know
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Football Manager 2017 is set for release later this year and promises to be the best in the series yet
Football Manager, the ultimate sports strategy simulator and veritable relationship hazard, is back again.
Developed by Sports Interactive and published by Sega, the hugely addictive series is set for its 13th instalment.
Here, Mirror Football guides you through everything you need to know about a game which allows you to fulfil even your most outrageous managerial fantasies - perhaps guiding Woking from the Conference to the Champions League in six seasons.
Of course, that sort of thing doesn’t go unnoticed.
The FM series is one of the most popular long-running franchises in video gaming today
When is it out?
Available on PC, Mac and Linux, Football Manager 2017 will be released on November 4 this year.
If you can’t wait that long, you can pre-purchase the game from a participating digital retailer and you can start your next managerial campaign at least two weeks before the full release with the free early-access Beta. Careers started in the Beta mode can be continued in the full game in due course.
There’s also some free downloadable content for the Touch edition on mobile, including “Board Override,” “No firing” and “All Job Applications” stipulations.
How much will it cost?
Football Manager 2017 is being touted for a £28-35 retail price and can also be bought via download from Steam.
FM has allowed gamers to live out their most outrageous managerial fantasies
What are the new features?
Sports Interactive and Sega have been keeping their cards close to their chest ahead of the game’s release and beyond the promise of “more streamlined” gameplay, there has been little in the way of concrete assurances from the pair.
Based on the rumour mill, however, we are led to believe that customisation of manager avatars has been made more in-depth, a greater variety of scenarios have been added to the challenge mode and more interaction from club chairmen is now part of the experience.
The player and manager data-bases are expected to be beefed up considerably.
FM puts you in full control of your team's selections, tactics and transfers
Will Brexit affect Football Manager?
It’s a question that few people expected to be asking, but given Football Manager’s hugely international nature, both in the context of the game and its production, it’s one that needs an answer.
Sports Interactive’s Miles Jacobson wrote a lengthy LinkedIn post in which he explained: “Football-wise, whilst not directly affecting us, the work permit system would come into place for EU Nations.
"Which we worked out would mean 175 players at the top level in the UK wouldn't have got work permits including - (Dimitri) Payet and (N’Golo) Kante. From a gameplay perspective, that’s going to cause more than a few problems for people who play the game as British clubs.”
The addictive series has managed to keep thousands of gamers enthralled over the past 11 years
Jacobson added: “Trade-wise, digital goods will likely be unaffected (apart from the exchange rate fluctuations).
"FM box copies would also likely be unaffected as they are manufactured outside the UK - although we may have to find a way to manufacture the game in the UK for copies here to avoid import taxes for our own game which could lead to longer times in getting discs manufactured as there is very limited capacity for this in the UK.”

Asthma is costing the NHS at least £1.1BILLION every year

Asthma is costing the NHS at least £1.1BILLION every year
Asthma is costing the UK health service at least £1.1 billion each year, a new study has confirmed.
Yes despite the huge cost the UK still has one of the highest fatality rates in Europe - with three people dying a day from the condition.
Experts say these deaths are preventable and are calling for more “focus on basic care”.
They say their findings confirm that the UK has one of the highest "burdens of asthma" in the world with asthma affecting one in every 11 people.
The findings are the result of what has been described as “the most comprehensive study of the state of asthma in UK”.
Researchers used anonymous information from out-of-hours care, ambulance, hospital Accident & Emergency records and disability living allowance.
Getty The findings are the result of what has been described as “the most comprehensive study of the state of asthma in UK”
Asthma UK are calling for smart inhalers to be introduced for sufferers who struggle to breathe, to help save lives and cut costs.
The devices would monitor the daily inhaler use of a patients and set up alerts on mobile phones.
Kay Boycott, Chief Executive of Asthma UK, said: “Despite the fact we’re spending over a billion pounds a year on asthma, many people are still not receiving care that meets even the most basic clinical standards.
“It’s clear this has to change and a different approach is urgently needed.
“We strongly believe new technologies such as smart inhalers are the likely game changer that could reduce asthma attacks and ease the burden on the NHS.
“Supporting people to better manage their asthma with new technologies would likely lead to healthier lifestyles, reducing the need for NHS appointments and admissions and freeing up care for those who need it most.”
The Asthma UK Centre for Applied Research at The University of Edinburgh,
who carried out the research, found there are around 6.4 million GP and nurse consultations for asthma each year .
Thye also found more than 270 people admitted to hospital each day because of asthma attacks.
Getty Pediatrician shows a girl an inhaler
Of the total cost of treating asthma in the UK, at least £666 million is spent on prescription costs each year.
Other costs include £160m on GP consultations, £143m on disability claims and £137m on hospital care.
Researchers say their figures are likely to be substantial underestimates because they did not take into account people for whom asthma was not their main illness.
More than 18 million people are treated for the condition at some stage in their lifetime.
Professor Aziz Sheikh, Director of the Asthma UK Centre for Applied Research at the University of Edinburgh, said: “Even with conservative assumptions, we find almost 100,000 people are admitted to hospital and there are at least 1000 deaths from asthma each year in the UK.
“This is unacceptable for a condition that, for most people, can be managed effectively with the right support from their GP.
“Greater focus on primary care is needed if we are to cut rates of severe asthma attacks, hospitalisations and deaths.”
The study is published in BMC Medicine journal and was funded by Asthma UK,
with additional funding from Edinburgh Clinical Trials Unit and The Farr Institute.

Rescuers stunned after fishermen spot two illegal immigrants trying to reach Europe on a SURFBOARD
Two teenage ' illegal immigrants ' have been rescued after trying to paddle their way to Spain on a surfboard.
The bare-chested youngsters risked their lives as they left the coast of north Africa and headed towards Europe on the board .
The journey is hazardous enough in boats, with numerous people having drowned due to rough sea conditions and bad weather.
The immigrants, who have not been identified, were spotted by fisherman using the surfboard to try to get to the Spanish mainland.
They had no paddles - using only their hands to move the board through the water -and were wearing just pairs of shorts.
Rita Sobot Rescuers stunned after fishermen spot two illegal immigrants trying to reach Europe on a SURFBOARD
At the time of the rescue, it was mid-afternoon with high temperatures.
However, night would have brought much colder weather, with the risk of dehydration and hypothermia.
Spain's maritime rescue service had already intercepted two inflatable boats with 11 men on board in the same stretch of water just off the island of Tarifa, the southernmost point of the Iberian Peninsula.
The second alert was sounded by the fishermen who spotted the two immigrants attempting to cross the sea on the surfboard.
"It had already been a complicated day when we also had to rescue these two immigrants trying to cross the ocean on a surfboard," said a spokesman for the rescue ship, Alkaid.
Many migrants are so desperate to reach Europe that they are willing to try an array of dangerous measures to do so - such as hiding inside jet skis.
Others pay people traffickers thousands of euros to make the trip by boat - but they are often set adrift.
The two teenagers who tried to paddle to Spain were pulled aboard the rescue ship and taken to the port of Tarifa.
There, they will be processed and eventually sent back home.

Josie Gibson has slammed body shamers who make girls as young as three paranoid about their image.
The reality star - who has battled with her weight for years and after shredding 6 stone is considering loose skin removal surgery - appeared on Good Morning Britain to back the Children's Society's campaign to protect young girls.
Josie, 31, said things are so bad that even freckles are being photoshopped.
ITV Josie backs campaign
"You've experienced both sides of this haven't you Josie," said GMB's Ranvir Singh, as the former Big Brother contestant gave her opinion on body shaming.
"I've got two little sisters and I feel so sorry for them because they are growing up in this world where everyone is striving for perfection and it doesn't exist.
"When you [do see someone that looks perfect], they've got a team of make-up artists, there are filters."
ITV The presenters discuss all
"I took a pic using an app and it removed my freckles - I couldn't believe it as I thought my freckles were alright."
"I thought I was half-about and then I went on Twitter and it was bad as you're constantly being put down."
Speaking about body shamers and what they're doing to society, Josie added: "There is so much pressure on these young girls now, I feel sorry for them."
One in seven girls aged 10-15 say they are unhappy about their lives, according to the report.
A report from the Children's Society reveals that a third of young girls in the UK are anxious about their appearance and more than a quarter of a million girls in Britain are unhappy with their lives.
Ranvir and Charlotte also quizzed the Children's Commissioner Anne Longfield about the worrying results.

Gibson previously revealed that she had her nipples corrected during breast surgery because they were "everywhere".
During her debut appearance on the Loose Women panel, the reality star opened up about her love life, her weight loss journey and plans to have more surgery.
ITV
When the conversation turned to the recent discovery that there are eight different types of nipples, Josie confessed that she had 'big ones' that she had altered.
Pointing at her boobs with wonky hands she said: "They were like that. They're a bit hairy in the middle... I went to a surgeon and he actually put it up. He straightened them out. I had a nipple lift."

The newly branded competition gets underway tonight with Under-23 teams from the Premier League and Championship facing League One and League Two sides in the much-maligned tournament.

"While I think the competition is a good one for clubs in League One and League Two with the potential of a Wembley final, I don't want to give support to a fixture that, if successful, will be used as a reason for U23 teams to continue their inclusion, or worse still, be added to the FA Cup or the EFL."

Revealed: The best places in the UK to bring up a family
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

For a happy family life, head to Hertfordshire. The home county is the best place to bring up your children, according to research.
Herts came top of the Better Family Life Index, which ranks 138 UK authorities on 33 factors.
It was followed by Cambridgeshire and Central Bedfordshire as the East of England fared best for family, work and life opportunities.
As well as traditional measures like GCSE grades and average income, the study by USwitch.com looked at average hours of sleep, time spent with family, average sunshine and access to amenities.
Scotland hosted five of the 10 worst areas, due to a high number of young people not in education or employment and poor mobile phone coverage. East and North Ayrshire came bottom due to high crime rates, poor exam results, low average income, less average sunshine and less sleep.
Leicester was second bottom thanks to the UK’s fourth worst employment rate, high council tax and poor childcare provision.
The survey used Government data from the likes of Ofcom and the Office for National Statistics as well as the latest consumer polling.
Tashema Jackson, uSwitch.com money expert, said: “Quality of life should not be a postcode lottery.
“With the new Government yet to announce its budgetary priorities, it is vital positive changes are made to help give all families fair opportunities no matter where they live.”
A poll of 2,400 Brits with children under the age of 18 found almost half consider moving to improve their circumstances. Four in 10 worry they are not giving their family the best start in life.
Hertfordshire boasts the third highest employment rate in England with 81% of residents aged 16-64 in work and earning a high average gross salary of £33,435.
It has fast average broadband speeds of 38Mbps and is seventh in the UK for GCSE exam results.
Daily Mirror Best Places Map
Second placed Cambridgeshire had 80% in work and average annual pay of £32,761.
Bedfordshire, in third, has very low levels of young people not in employment or education and just 4% of children in workless households. Residents in all three areas are close to local amenities, living an average of nine minutes from their GP and less than 10 minutes from a primary school.
Those in the East of England spend more time with loved ones and receive two days more holiday than the UK average of 25 days.
They also say they sleep well, enjoying seven hours on an average night – compared to the UK average of 6 hours 48 minutes.
Ms Jackson added: “The Better Family Life Index shows that life is far from equal for families across the UK. Although there is much to celebrate in many areas, it’s not surprising that so many are thinking about moving to a new region to improve their circumstances.”

Where's best to be a pensioner?
Mirrorpix Gold Hill in Shaftesbury, Dorset
Dorset offers the best quality of life for pensioners across England and Wales.
The new Quality of Retirement Index from Prudential assessed counties against seven criteria - access to healthcare, crime levels, pensioner incomes, the weather, life expectancy, how many pensioners already lived in a particular area and how many were moving into the county.
Prudential said Dorset topped the rankings for quality of retirement owing to its “all-round appeal”.
It said the county was ranked in the top 10 in four of the seven indicators, including being the sixth most popular destination for retirees moving home and having the country’s third highest concentration of people over the age of 65. The research also found pensioners in Surrey, ranked at number 10, received the highest average annual retirement income, at £21,200.

Horrific dashcam footage has emerged showing a 60mph head-on smash that killed four people - including two who were burned alive.
The footage captures two cars speeding towards each other in southwest Russia's Volgograd Oblast region, before trying to swerve out of the way.
However, they end up turning in the same direction and collide head-on, killing two people instantly and causing one of the vehicles to set ablaze.
A further two victims burned to death in the raging fire, it is reported.
CEN The two cars speed towards each other in southwest Russia's Volgograd Oblast region
A 10-year-old girl and a 37-year-old passenger managed to escape from the shocking smash with concussions and several fractures.
The tragedy, which occurred on a road between the towns of Uren, Sharya, and Nikolsk, was caught on the dashcam of one of the cars.
The short clip shows a speeding black vehicle, believed to be a Renault Sandero, suddenly appearing in the wrong lane on the road.
It then speeds towards the car, before both vehicles try to avoid each other.

However, they collide in a heart-stopping head-on smash after turning in the same direction.
The car in which the footage was recorded, thought to be a Toyota Camry, then flips on its roof, recording a final dashcam shot of the blue sky.
The Renault Sandero, meanwhile, reportedly caught fire, causing the driver and a passenger to be burned alive.
However, a young girl who was also a passenger in the car survived the crash after being saved by rescuers.

Dan Jarvis warns Labour faces annihilation under Jeremy Corbyn

www.mirror.co.uk

Dan Jarvis says Labour would be a party of 'perpetual protest' under Jeremy Corbyn
At this crucial time for the future of our country, all of us in the Labour movement have a duty to ensure that those with the least do not lose the most from Brexit.
Let us be honest though, it has been a tough time for Labour recently.
Our reputation has been damaged and our credibility undermined.
But despite our troubles, Labour is worth fighting for.
Because over the past century our movement has been the most powerful force for good in the country.
But if we are to regain the public’s trust we must sort ourselves out and demonstrate that we are the people who understand the challenges the country faces.
PA / Getty Images Dan Jarvis says Labour's reputation has been damaged
We must demonstrate leadership in navigating what Brexit will mean for millions of working people who worry about their future and feel left behind.
These negotiations will be long and complex and represent a huge test for our political establishment.
The Labour leadership must measure up to this historic challenge.
Failure to do so will leave working people without a voice and an effective opposition to hold the Government to account.
So today I cast my vote in the Labour leadership contest for Owen Smith.
He can unite our party and provide the principled and effective leadership that Labour needs to win back the trust of the British people.
Evening Gazette / Ian McIntyre Dan Jarvis listens to concerns when shadow Justice minister
Jeremy Corbyn failed to show the necessary leadership through a defining moment in the history of our country.
When Clement Attlee and Ernest Bevin served in Churchill’s War Cabinet they put the national interest first.
Instead of following that example, Labour’s EU referendum campaign was undermined by Jeremy’s lack of leadership – made worse by a failure to demonstrate the basic competence that is required for effective opposition.
We must be mindful that scrutiny of our leader and our party today is nothing compared to the microscopic examination of a General Election campaign.
The warning signs are clear and countless conversations I have had on doorsteps in Barnsley and across the country reveal the scale of the challenge we face.
Opinion polls predict a greater defeat in the next election than the last.
We are unprepared for an early election against a renewed, resourced and ruthless Tory machine.
We can only put that right with new leadership.
Jeff J Mitchell Dan Jarvis says only Owen Smith can unite the party
We should however, recognise our current difficulties did not begin and will not end with Jeremy Corbyn.
Our party became too focused on Westminster and distracted by its cliques.
Jeremy deserves credit for changing a culture where insider politics trumped the rightful role of members.
But I am supporting Owen because we need a leader who can realise our potential as a campaigning force to deliver real change to local communities – someone who can lift us out of the political comfort-zone and get us ready for the challenges ahead.
The purity of perpetual protest offers only the road to electoral annihilation and the reality is that we can only deliver real change by exercising our Labour values in government.
Millions around the country are depending on us to win again.
We need a leader with broad appeal, who can reach out across the country and who aspires to sit inside Downing Street, not demonstrate outside.
Whoever wins the contest must demonstrate the leadership to address the huge challenges we face:
Firstly, we must not allow Brexit to be defined only by the Tories.
That would be bad for Britain and for working people.
Our leader should seek a formal role for the opposition in the Brexit negotiations, as part of a process involving trades unions, devolved government, business and civil society.
Secondly, we must hold the Tories to account and build support across the country.
Getty Labour is not ready for a general election under Jeremy Corbyn, Dan Jarvis says
The local and Mayoral elections next year provide an important measure of our progress towards electability.
Labour must get into a position to compete in a General Election.
Finally, the leader must work constructively to unite our party so that Labour can once again command the confidence of the country.
Many Labour party members have spent the summer reflecting on a turbulent year and thinking about how to cast their vote.
One I spoke with recently told me the real enthusiasm she felt after voting to elect Jeremy Corbyn last year.
But her conclusion today is somewhat different: “I’ve waited my whole life for a socialist country that I now accept Jeremy cannot deliver. I just want to see a Labour Government before I die.”
There are no easy answers to the challenges we face as a party and a country, but the starting point is new leadership to renew our party and earn the opportunity to serve our country.
Only then can Labour deliver real change for working people.
That is why Labour is worth fighting for.
Dan Jarvis is the Labour MP for Barnsley Central

Police have searched the home of Chris Brown following a tense 11-hour stand-off.
Officers surrounded the singer's mansion in Los Angeles home on Tuesday following a pre-dawn 911 call from a woman who claimed he had pointed a gun at her.
Brown, 27, denied any wrongdoing and said on Instagram posts that he had woken up to find police outside and that they would need a warrant to enter the Tarzana property.
LAPD spokesman Lieutenant Chris Ramirez said: "This morning, around three o'clock, officers responded to a radio call for a woman requiring assistance.
"The incident involved the residence of Mr Chris Brown, where officers responded and met with that person."
Police spent hours waiting outside Brown's home before obtaining a search warrant and beginning a search of the sprawling premises in the early afternoon.
An LAPD spokeswoman said the occupants of the home were being interviewed but no arrests had been made. She had no information on whether Brown had been detained.
After being stationed outside the property since the early hours of Tuesday, the singer's entourage began to emerge at around 12:40pm, [PDT] before they were interviewed by police followed by the singer himself two hours later.
Brown left the building at around 2:38pm [PDT] wearing a white t-shirt, black jeans and a red hat and looked in good spirits as he spoke to law enforcement and, who is believed to be his lawyer Mark Geragos.

A huge police presence has been at the mansion since early this morning, with the first time arriving at around 3am following reports he threatened a woman with a gun.
It was reported on Tuesday by TMZ that the singer was being investigated on an allegation of criminal assault, after a woman claimed he threatened her with a gun while at an LA residence, prompting her to call 911.

"Come on my n****, what else do you f****** want from me bro, I stay outta the way, take care of my daughter, do work. I don't need to f*** ugly b******, trifling b******, whatever the f*** it is."
Brown, who claims to be inside his property continues: "I'm not on that bro, I'm way too tired to be dealing with this b*******. Every three months you come up with something bro? What is it, what's going to be next?" he claimed.

Brown added: "My n***** I'm innocent, I'm tired of hearing this s***"
In a follow up video he also denied reports he was "barricaded" inside his house and appeared to laugh at the suggestion, before saying "f*** the police".
In a third video he took a minute to plug his new single Grass Ain't Greener in a third.
WENN Ray J was allegedly in the building
Mirror Celeb has contacted Brown's rep for comment.
The woman at the centre of the drama was quickly identified as beauty queen Baylee Curran.
The blonde spoke to TMZ about the alleged incident, claiming the singer threatened her with a gun after she admired a piece of jewellery.
Baylee revealed she had "partied" with Brown in the past and said he had always been "nice" but this time was "out of it".
On Monday night she claims to have gone to his Tarzana mansion where they hungout in a hot tub and were having fun, until she admired a piece of jewellery worn by a member of Brown's crew.

Instagram/bayleecurran She spoke to TMZ about the incident
She claimed the man "went nuts" and that Brown reacted by demanding she "get the f*** out", which is when he allegedly pointed the gun at her.
Curran alleges that Brown's people asked her to sign a non-disclosure agreement, but that she refused.
Sources close to the singer have, however, refuted the blonde's version of events.
Instagram/bayleecurran The blonde claimed the argument was over jewellery
They claim Brown and several friends, including Ray J, were at the house when "uninvited guests" appeared and were asked to leave, including Baylee.
Ray J was reportedly getting a tattoo when events kicked off, while insiders claimed Brown was asleep.
Brown's team have yet to comment publicly on events.
Singer Ray J was also allegedly in the building when the incident happened and was allowed to leave by police, however he had to leave his car at the property and reportedly went home in an uber.
Brown has never been far from controversy during his career.
In May this year the star denied claims he "stomped on a fan's head" during a recent nightclub appearance at the Cannes Film Festival.

"Grabbed his hands around my throat and tried to push me out the spot when we were walking, my security was already outside of the spot."

Charlton fans unfurled a North Korea flag above the directors box at The Valley during their match against Bolton.
Addicks supporters have staged a series of protests against owner Roland Duchatelet and his running of the club, with this the latest incident.
Chief executive Katrien Meire has also come under fire, and she was present for the fixture.
Charlton fans carried a coffin to the stadium in a mock 'funeral' prior to their match against Middlesbrough towards the end of last season, in which they were relegated from the Championship to League One.

Proceedings were then delayed as beach balls were thrown on to the playing surface as protests against the owner and board continued.
Charlton released a statement following that match calling for calm, but supporters are still voicing their displeasure at the running of the club.
It read: "The club is extremely saddened by the situation which has led to supporters demonstrating ahead of, and during, the match against Middlesbrough on Sunday.
"Every supporter has the right to voice their opinion and we are determined to do everything we can to work together with supporters to build our relationship with them and make sure they remain at the heart of this club."

West Brom 0-0 Middlesbrough: Boro happy with point in Sunday snoozefest
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
In a game that will go down in history as definitely having happened, West Bromwich Albion played out a goalless draw at the Hawthorns.
While British broadcasters alone paid an average of £10.19million per match in the last auction, this was a game utterly devoid of worth.
There were perhaps two chances of note - one for Stewart Downing, who shot wide, and another for Salomon Rondon.
But neither ever looked likely to break the deadest of deadlocks.
That doesn't mean there was nothing to learn, though. In fact, there were five things...
1. Pulis sends a message
Reuters Tony Pulis knows what he is doing in sending a message to the board
There was plenty of praise floating around pre-match for Tony Pulis, who included a gaggle of young players in his matchday squad.
The pre-match headliner was Kane Wilson, who would become the first player to play in the Premier League who was born in this millennium.
16-year-old Wilson and 17-year-old Jonathan Leko were on the bench with 21-year-old Jack Rose.
But there was a start for 18-year-old Sam Field.
Getty Pulis included 16-year-old Kane Wilson in his matchday squad
While this may look like stuck-in-his-ways Pulis has had something of a youth revelation, those that have followed his career will know that it's a typical TP powerplay.
The Welshman has been wrestling with the club's board all summer over transfers and wants FIVE more players.
In case maths isn't your strong point, that would bump all of those kids out of this matchday squad.
2016 Getty Images Jonathan Leko came on as a substitute
Pulis has pulled these tricks down the line and had particularly feisty behind-the-scenes wrangles with Crystal Palace officials over transfers he wanted completed but that made no sense for the club.
If he doesn't get his way shortly it might all come out into the open.
2. Unfussy Clayton key for Middlesbrough
PA Wire Adam Clayton leads Boro's warm-up
Adam Clayton hit the headlines last weekend following a tweet of the Boro team celebrating their 2-1 win at Sunderland.
The ex-Huddersfield midfielder stood, bold as brass, in just his pants with one testicle on show as Aitor Karanka’s side delighted in their Wear-Tees victory.
But Karanka doesn’t mind such high-jinks from Clayton, because he knows that week in, week out, no matter the opposition, he’ll get a performance from the Mancunion midfielder.
Clayton revealed a testicle in Stuani's tweet
Clayton and Grant Leadbitter’s midfield partnership was pivotal to Boro’s promotion success last term, and while Leadbitter has yet to kick a ball in anger so far this term, Clayton has stepped into the Premier League with typical assuredness.
The 27-year-old settled his side down here when they came under early pressure from the hosts and, as per, offered Boro’s attacking talents a platform from which to play, getting the ball and looking to dictate from deep.
Aitor Karanka continues to look to strengthen his side, but one man whose place isn’t under pressure is Clayton.
3. Field is accomplished on debut
AFP/Getty Sam Field's only previous action for the first team had been in pre-season
As obvious as Pulis' message to the board was, the scenario was a win-win in many ways for the club.
Because if Sam Field were to look the part, then they could legitimately turn to Pulis and point to their academy as a far superior (and cheaper) source for new players.
And he did.
The teen did well in a congested midfield area, guided by the experienced hand of Darren Fletcher.
His languid running style makes him stand out in the centre of the field, and that helped draw attention to some tidy passing and clever runs - even if his teammates didn't notice them.
4. Boro might not be entertaining, but they'll stay up
Reuters Aitor Karanka has impressed since arriving in the Premier League
Ever since Aitor Karanka took over at the Riverside, Boro have been a side that is defensively accomplished.
Their promotion was built on a solid backline and they're looking to have maintained that even on their ascension to the Premier League.
Prioritising a clean sheet - as Karanka's great mentor Jose Mourinho does - may not be particularly entertaining to watch.
But if (and when) it keeps them in the top flight they will not care a jot.
5. Saido Berahino NEEDS to get out
Action Images via Reuters Benched: Saido Berahino was a sub... again
The Burundi-born striker has got himself into an utterly peculiar and completely untenable situation in West Bromwich.
Booed by his own fans and behind a teenage rookie in the pecking order, the formerly in-demand Berahino scored at just under a goal every 436.5 minutes in the league last year and spent most of it watching from the bench - earning just 14 starts.
There may have been political motives behind that but it doesn't matter. The 23-year-old needs a clean break and he needs it now (or, at least, before Wednesday) to save his career.

Little Mia Tindall once again stole the show on a Bank Holiday festival trip out with her parents Zara Phillips and Mike.
The two-year-old was seen playing with an inflatable tiger and a tortoise at the The Big Feastival in the Cotswolds.
And - probably fearing a toddler tantrum - the royal couple forked out to buy their little one the tortoise.
Former England rugby star Mike wore tan shorts, a checked top, a straw fedora and blue shoes, while Zara opted for a grey blouse, black ripped jeans and grey Converse trainers.

Mia, as the fourth of the Queen's great-grandchildren, is 17th in line to the throne.

The North Korean dictator has allowed embassy staff in London to disregard the charge

Kim Jong-Un owes more than £225,000 in London congestion charge for just THREE CARS
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

Kim Jong-Un owes more than £225,000 in congestion charge fees - on just a handful of motors.
The North Korean “Axis of Evil” dictator has allowed embassy staff in London to disregard the charge, as well as ignoring £7,305 in parking fines.
Foreign and Commonwealth Office figures show the size of the debt that is related to just three cars, but involves almost 2,000 breaches of the charge.
The revelations come in a week of turmoil at the Ealing property after the deception of one of the diplomats.
Ambassador Hyon Hak-bong has been ordered to return to Pyongyang, where he is likely to face punishment for the defection in July of his deputy Thae Yong-ho.
Rex The North Korean embassy is in a normal suburban house in nearby Ealing, west London
A neighbour who did not want to be named said it wasn’t surprising the embassy was in such debt.
He said: “It doesn’t surprise me. They’ve had the same cars on the drive there for years and don’t seem to change them.
“The staff who come in and out aren’t exactly covered in bling. We’ve heard they have to have part-time jobs.
“They’re a funny lot. Not friendly, but they’re probably worried whose watching them.”
Another North Korean defector who fled to the UK Joo-il Kim revealed diplomats were so short of cash they resorted to bargain hunting at car boot sales close to the embassy in Ealing.
Wikipedia North Korean Embassy in Ealing, London
One diplomat had a side line buying old children’s dolls, washing them, and selling them on as if they were brand new.
He said: “I have seen them at car boot sales before, they use car boot sales to purchase items at discounted prices for their living expenses.
“Or they buy items and take them to North Korea either to give away as gifts to their friends and relatives or to sell them at higher prices.”
Images of the North Korean embassy in London show the same cars, parked in the same place, behind the same gates - for the past SEVEN years.
The six images, shot randomly by Google Earth between July, 2008, and October, 2015, suggest diplomats working in 73, Gunnersbury Avenue, Ealing don’t get out much, rather like the rest of the nation back home.

The two Mercedes are parked in the same positions on each image. And there appears to have been very little movement down the years.
The detached property which houses the Embassy of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea has seen a steep rise in value.
It has prompted speculation that dictator Kim John un, desperate for foreign currency to shore up his failing economy, may put it on the market.
It would probably sell for around £1.2m, representing a healthy profit if he wanted to move his staff elsewhere.
The embassy hit the headlines after a local barber offered to do a discount for locals with a Kim poster.
REUTERS North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has told his staff to ignore the fines
Mo Nabbach, who runs M&M Hair Academy in South Ealing, thought the idea would help drum up business given Jong-un’s distinctive hair style.
But he claims he found himself the victim of a covert monitoring operation carried out by officials from the embassy, which is located less than two miles away.
It came to the attention of officials who visited in 2014 and asked the barber to remove the poster.
It appears to have been a rare sortie out from the embassy, though one of the pictures does suggest they do at least put their bins out.
His excellency Mr Hyon Hak Bong is listed as the ambassador to the UK.
Given his country’s troubled relations with almost every civilized nation on earth, he surely faces one of the toughest jobs in international diplomatic relations.
Last month it was revealed how playing fields behind the embassy have become a magnet for lovers of outdoor sex.

Mum bodyshames herself when she's out shopping for clothes thanks to dress size stigma
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
A woman has shared a timely reminder about body image after she lied about her dress size when she was out shopping.
Constance Hall was in a clothing shop looking at dresses when she says the assistant directed her to larger sizes - correctly imagining she was in need of them.
But the popular mummy blogger - who isn't afraid to call out hypocrisy online - fell victim to the body size stigma she says we should all be railing against.
Constance, who lives in Australia and shot to fame after posting an unflinchingly honest post-natal depression letter to mums last year, shared this image of her trying to fit into a clearly too-small white dress.
She told her more than 895,000 followers on her Facebook page: "Went shopping for a new dress, was happily browsing the racks when the shop assistant says, 'Sorry darling those racks are size sixes and eights only, the other racks will be better for you'.
Hiding her offence, Constance replied: "That's cool. I AM a size six."
She reveals: "That's when we shared one of those awkward moments, the ones where she knows I'm lying, I know that she knows that I'm lying, she knows that I know that she knows that I'm lying..."
So she did the only thing she could - and grabbed a size six dress to try on.
That's when she snapped a shot of the dress clearly nowhere near the right size for her.
She wrote: "Feeling under enthused with the unsurprising results I returned from the change room and told her that the colour did nothing for me."
She responded, says Constance: "Wow, you are one of those beautiful women that I would think suits every colour."
Constance wrote on her post that she didn't judge the assistant for this incident, but herself.
"She wasn't body shaming... She was being practical. It was ME who body shamed myself by taking offence!"
She said that she had learned from the incident: "Today was a reminder that no dress sizes are better then any other.
"It's your body. You only have one. Love it."
More than 76,000 people have liked Constance's post .
"I confess to have actually been stuck in a dress and having to call for help," said one comment, while another added: "That looks like me thinking I can still fit into my pre-pregnant clothes."

Cesc Fabregas has been linked with a move away from Chelsea this summer
This transfer window has been as hectic as any in recent memory.
The long drawn out moves of Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Paul Pogba to Manchester United, as well as John Stones' £47.5million switch from Everton to Manchester City, have been the biggest football stories of the summer in England.
Meanwhile, in Europe we've seen Gonzalo Higuain join Juventus from Napoli for £75million, as he replaced Alvaro Morata in Turin following the Spaniard's return to Real Madrid.
We are likely to see a couple more big money transfers before the window closes
Could Arsene Wenger FINALLY sign a striker? Will Cesc Fabregas leave Chelsea? Well, we don't know the answers to those questions, but we do have this nifty informational, kindly put together by the Birmingham Mail, which tells you all you need to know about when the transfer window closes.
John Peters/Man Utd via Getty Images Manchester United broke the world transfer record when they signed Paul Pogba for £89million
REUTERS John Stones completed a £47.5million move to Manchester City from Everton
When did the transfer window re-open?
Like every year, the summer window officially opened on July 1, but players, agents and clubs were discussing contract terms and final fees long before then.
When does the transfer window close?
The transfer window will slam shut on August 31 at 11.30pm, just as players disappear for an international break.
Mike Hewitt Juventus signed Gonzalo Higuain for £75million
When does the loan window end?
Unlike last year, there will be no emergency loan window, and no separate deadline day for loans.
Any loan deals must be completed by the end of the normal transfer window on August 31.
How much can we expect to see spent?
The 2015 window saw a record £859m spent by Premier League clubs but, with the new broadcasting deal due to kick in, this summer is likely to be even bigger.
English top flight clubs have already spent a collective £800million so far so the £1billion mark may well be passed before the window closes.
What Premier League deals have been done this summer?

This cyclist celebrated winning a race just moments too early - and badly regretted it.
Video footage shows the excruciating moment the rider punched the air as he approaches the end.
But at the very last second he was overtaken by another competitor - who won by an inch.
The footage of Via Roma Twilight Criterium support race, shows Jamie Wilkins raise his arm in victory after a frantic race through the streets of Cirencester., Gloucestershire.
SWNS Cyclist Jamie Wilkins (right) raising his arm in victory
SWNS He didn't see competitor Jamie Penton overtaking him
But he failed to notice fellow racer Jamie Penton powering towards the line.
It was only as Mr Wilkins crossed the line that he realises he has actually finished second.
The moment was captured by timing experts DB Max.
Posting on DB Max's Facebook page Jamie said: "My stupid mistake, I admit readily. Pretty embarrassing but just a bike race. On to the next one."
SWNS But by then it was too late
SWNS And then this happened
James Higgs of DB Max explained that the red line is the finish line and a transponder chip on the rear of each bike records them passing through when halfway between the two cables across the road - at the same time the front wheel crosses the red line.
"It's the same system as used in the Tour de France and the Rio Olympics," said James, from the Melksham-based firm.
"It was a great night's racing, and we have had a lot of interest in this video."

Arsenal new boy Granit Xhaka like Gunners legend Emmanuel Petit says pleased boss Arsene Wenger
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

Xhaka's midfield work reminds Wenger of how Petit (inset) performed for his title-winning Gunners
The A Listers ensured Watford were gone in 45 minutes but behind them Arsene Wenger already sees Granit Xhaka as the new Emmanuel Petit.
Strong in the tackle, intelligent with his passing, Xhaka may have cost Arsenal £30million but as his side swept hosts Watford away 3-1 , Gunners fans could already see where their money has gone.
“He is a guy who plays naturally behind the ball,” said Wenger, “He is a bit similar to Petit in the way he plays football.
“He likes to sit, give good long balls and be available with the centre-backs.
“I believe he has a good mixture of short and long balls, in midfield it is important for us to sometimes stretch the opposition defenders.
“We have a game that is based on shorter passes than other teams so sometimes you have to have a player who can kick the longer ball which gives us a chance to get some oxygen and some space.”
AFP/Getty Arsenal were quickly in front through Santi Cazorla's penalty...
Action Images via Reuters ...the score stayed 1-0 until first Alexis Sanchez from a narrow angle...

PA Wire ...Watford new boy Roberto Pereyra got one back for them just before the hour
Valencia defender Skhodran Mustafi and Deportivo La Coruna forward Lucas Perez will increase the feel-good factor when they sign up early this week for a combined £52million.
It was last winter, however, during a run of just one defeat in 15 games for Xhaka’s former club Borussia Monchengladbach, that Wenger decided he’d seen enough to make the 24-year-old the long-term heartbeat of the Arsenal team.
“We tried in December last year,” said the Frenchman.
“We saw he has a good engine, good stature, he is good in the air and has a good balance in his game, he has a good short ball and a good long ball.
“He is 24 years old, he has already experience abroad and that is always a problem and is more reassuring when a player has already played abroad somewhere.
“He was captain at his age at Monchengladbach, that is not a small club so he has leadership qualities.”
Reuters Theo Walcott, Cazorla and Arsenal were buzzing over their first win of the season...
Action Images via Reuters ...but Watford have managed just a single points from their opening three games
Indeed, Xhaka’s strong start to the season comes after his penalty miss in Switzerland’s defeat to Poland which saw them crash out of the Euros.
Although he went on to issue a public apology, he also vowed not to back down from taking any more spot-kicks in the future.
Wenger added: “He has a big focus and I think he is mentally strong.”
With Mikel Arteta and Mathieu Flamini having left the club and Jack Wilshere seemingly never more than a few weeks away from an injury, Wenger suggested he now has a few less sleepless nights over his options in the centre of the park.
More importantly, with the likes of 24-year-old Mohamed Elneny and 25-year-olds Aaron Ramsey and Francis Coquelin, the picture in the centre of the park is perhaps not as bleak as some Arsenal fans would have you believe.
In pictures — Watford 1-3 Arsenal:
“We we lost three midfielders last year, Arteta, Rosicky and Flamini,” said Wenger. “We had many injuries and we have some uncertainties about longer term injuries.
“We think that if you project a bit for a longer future, we have players close to 30, close to 20 and at the mid-range of 24, 25 we did not have many and I think it is important.”
If Manchester United are seen as title challengers with a spine of De Gea, Bailly, Pogba, Mkhitaryan and Zlatan, then are Arsenal - with Cech, Mustafi, Xhaka, Ozil and Sanchez that far behind?
“You know the Premier League,” said Wenger. “Everybody is strong this season.
“We have just to focus on the performances and try and improve.”

Arsenal will only get better after a deserved win turned up the heat on new Watford boss Walter Mazzari, who has now lost two of his opening three, drawn the other and been dumped out of the League Cup by third-tier Gillingham.
Santi Cazorla, Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil scored the goals that had this contest wrapped up by half time.
Watford rallied in the second half as the Gunners’ dropped down a gear and substitute Roberto Pereyra snatched a 57th-minute consolation on his debut. Referee Kevin Friend will not look back on this game as one of his best.
Overall, however, Arsenal were just too good.

Britney Spears found Carpool Karaoke "awkward" and couldn't remember James Corden's name afterwards.
The pop star , who was blasted on social media for miming during the segment for the Late Late Show, has spoken about following in Adele's footsteps by appearing in the clip for the US programme, and although she had a great time, she felt uncomfortable.
In an interview with 103.5 WKTU, Britney said: "It was fun, it was really fun. The guy was just so incredibly sweet. I had no idea he has kids, he's a teddy bear. I was like, 'I just want to hug you right now.'"
The Late Late Show with James Corden/Youtube Britney and James Corden in the car
But she then added: "It was a little awkward, like, driving by grocery stores. People walk by and there are like 18 cameras around us. This is just so awkward.
"Sometimes I got on to him [Corden] and said, 'I don't want to hear that song again'. They probably didn't show that part."
Asked which songs she had asked him not to play again, Britney replied: "Of course 'Baby' and 'Oops'. Oh my God, and he kept playing them! He put a damn wig on for it. Yeah I totally went along with it."
Britney did look pretty embarrassed throughout most of the sketch as James dressed up in a school uniform with blonde pigtails.

Britney was mocked on Twitter for appearing to MIME her way through her famous 2003 track Toxic.
James carried the song as she nervously giggled, and she didn't seem too enthusiastic about singing any of her other tracks.
"Looks like Britney is even miming in carpool karaoke . Hahaha," one Twitter user wrote.
" Carpool karaoke with Britney Spears and shock she's miming what's even the point," another said.
Britney joins a long list of amazing stars who have joined James for a spin in his car, including the likes of George Clooney, Gwen Stefani, Stevie Wonder, Justin Bieber and One Direction.

Brave US aid worker kidnapped by ISIS was 'only hostage' to stand up to Jihadi John

Aid worker Kayla Mueller was the ONLY hostage to stand up to ISIS chief executioner Jihadi John - a fellow hostage has revealed.
Daniel Rye Ottensen survived - despite also being held alongside executed Brit hostage Alan Henning and Americans James Foley and Mueller - thanks to negotiations.
The Dane has now revealed how the 25-year-old aid worker steadfastly refused to renounce her Christian faith when goaded by the sick extremist Mohammed Emwazi.
The American aid worker describes her experiences in harrowing footage taken before she was killed in an airstrike.
Kayla was forced to marry ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi , was reportedly tortured and constantly raped before her death last year.
In the proof of life video, which was made by ISIS and sent to her parents, who have just released it to ABC , she says: "My name is Kayla Mueller. I need your help."
She adds: "It's very terrifying."
The video is believed to be the only footage of her in captivity.
Her father Carl described the moment he saw it. He said: "You just go into almost a catatonic state, I think. You can't even stand up."
The footage shows ISIS hostage Kayla Mueller before she died in airstrike
Her mother Marsha added: "I saw how thin she looked, I saw her eyes were clear. She was very steady so it broke my heart.
"But I also saw her strength."
The 26-year-old was held captive at the home of al-Baghdadi's deputy Abu Sayaff.
The Islamic State’s second in command was allegedly killed alongside Kayla in an air strike on the property near Raqqa, Syria, in February 2015.
She was taken captive in August 2013 in Aleppo, Syria, as she left a Doctors Without Borders hospital.

After graduating from university in 2009, Kayla travelled to northern India, Palestinian territories and Israel to assist humanitarian groups.
She then went to Syria to help people whose lives had been torn apart by war, concentrating on children.
There she was kidnapped by jihadis in August 2013 following a short visit over the border from her base in Turkey.
Reuters A letter from Kayla Mueller
It is believed ISIS were tipped of about her presence by a spy who informed she was there with her Syrian photographer boyfriend Omar Alkhani.
He was later released.
A media account connected to ISIS released a statement claiming that a female American hostage held by the group was killed by one of around a dozen Jordanian airstrikes in Raqqa, the ISIS 'capital'.

Nisreen Assad Ibrahim Bahar, aka Umm Sayyaf, the 25-year-old widow of Abu Sayaff, is currently in Iraqi custody over the death of Kayla.
She has been charged with providing material support to a foreign terrorist organisation that resulted in a person's death, and faces a maximum sentence of life in prison if convicted.

Taiwanese navy accidentally fires NUCLEAR MISSILE at fishing vessel as tensions in China Strait reach boiling point
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
The Taiwanese navy has accident blown a fishing vessel out of the water with a nuclear missile.
The horrifying training accident has been blamed on poor discipline and a failure to follow protocol.
A fishing captain died in the incident.
The incident took place on 1st July and came just hours before a planned military exercise and sparked a national enquiry in Taiwan after the nuclear anti-ship Hsiung Feng III missile was prepared and then launched from a Jin Jiang-class warship docked at a naval base in south-western Kaohsiung City.
Petty Officer Second Class Kao Chia-chun, 33, was detained following the incident, after it was revealed that he was the one who armed four missiles and then erroneously fired two of them.
The missile hit a fishing vessel (file picture)
One of the projectiles was disabled by the ship’s simulation device - used to prevent missile launches during military exercises - while the other shot towards the Taiwan Strait and struck the fishing boat some 40 nautical miles out, near Taiwan’s outlying Penghu Islands, killing the skipper and injuring three of his crew.
Petty Officer Chen Ming-hsiu, Kao’s supervisor on the vessel in charge of missile launches, is said to have ordered the four Hsiung Feng III missiles connected to the firing system ahead of the exercise.
Chen then set two of the missiles to combat mode, but then left Kao alone in the operation room, causing the confused seaman to continue launch procedures and eventually fire the two deadly projectiles out to sea.
In a damning report of the incident, Taiwan’s Ministry of National Defence said Chen violated protocol by allowing Kao to arm the missiles and then also leaving the subordinate in the operating room by himself.
Including Chen and Kao, five other commanding officers have been disciplined by the Taiwanese navy, reports said.
After his initial detention, Kao was released on bail for 300,000 TWD (7,230 GBP), but he, Chen, as well as one other seaman are being charged with negligence in the fatal accident and are awaiting a hearing at the Kaohsiung District Prosecutors Officer.

Kanye West 's bombshells and heart-felt speeches have become a key part of any huge awards ceremony.
And he didn't disappoint, as he managed to throw shade at both his ex Amber Rose AND rival Taylor Swift as he took to the stage at the MTV VMAs tonight.
The rapper gave a lengthy speech on stage, and was unusually smiley throughout, insisting he was sending nothing but positive vibes - well, almost.
After praising his close friend Beyonce - despite them being in competition tonight - Kanye called out his ex Amber Rose in the audience, before throwing shade at his rival Taylor, who chose not to attend.
Getty Kanye West took to the stage
Getty Amber got called out
"I might lose to Beyonce, but I can't be mad, I'm always wishing for Beyonce to win," he began, before addressing his latest controversial music video for Fame.
"It was an expression of our now, our fame right now, us on the inside of the TV.
"Just the audacity to put Anna Wintour next to Donald Trump, I mean I put Ray J in there bro, this is Fame bro."
Amazing.
Getty He was VERY smiley
Getty Kim laughed her way through it
It didn't last long, as he immediately looked out into the crowd, and referring to his ex Amber's involvement in the video, he shouted: "I see you Amber!"
Not done there, he added: "My wife is a G. We came over in the same boat now we’re in the same bed."
The star then went on to speak out about the Chicago attacks, and brought the mood down temporarily - before lifting it again.
Finally making reference to THAT Taylor drama, Kanye said: "Bro, I love all of y’all. That’s why I called her."
Getty Kanye West performs
Getty Did we expect this?
Wow.
He moved the speech on quickly, failing to name drop his long-time rival, and then named his role models as "artist merchants", listing them and finally ending with "West".
He added: "Tonight, we're here to have fun. I’m standing in front of my idol Puff Daddy, I’m standing in front of my wife, I’m standing in front of the future Chance the Rapper, Two Chainz.
"Bro. We are undeniably the influence, the thought leaders."

Delays to Heathrow expansion will 'harm the whole UK', union leaders warn Theresa May
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
UNION leaders warn Prime Minister Theresa May today (mon) that further delays to the expansion of London’s Heathrow Airport will “harm the whole of the UK.”
In a letter to the PM - seen by the Mirror - they call on her to prove her commitment to industry and growth by giving the go-ahead to a new runway when Parliament returns next week.
The TUC, and union leaders with members in construction, manufacturing and aviation urge her to back the findings of the Airports Commission, which reported last year in favour of a new third runway.
The controversial decision is a political hot potato for Tories as the prime minister has a series of opponents to the expansion in her cabinet.
They include education secretary Justine Greening, the the MP for Putney, Roehampton and Southfields, and foreign secretary Boris Johnson.
Chancellor Philip Hammond, said last year that he was in favour of expanding Gatwick instead of Heathrow.
Dan Kitwood Chancellor Philip Hammond has expressed a preference for expanding Gatwick
A decision was expected in the summer, but the timetable was sidelined after David Cameron resigned as prime minister over the EU Brexit vote.
Just last week Downing Street made it clear Mrs May will chair a cabinet committee to make the final decision with an outcome expected by the autumn.
But the letter, whose signatories include TUC general secretary Frances O’Grady and Len McCluskey, leader of Britain’s biggest union Unite, warn that government dithering is costing jobs.
They say Airport Commission research forecast the creation of 70,000 jobs at Heathrow and thousands more in the supply chain around the UK as well as a £147 billion boost to the economy.

The letter tells the Prime Minister that “trade unions and their members stand ready to work to help the government successfully deliver this next major national infrastructure project”.
Ms O’Grady said last night:” “If we want a stronger economy, we must build the infrastructure British industry needs to compete in the world.
“We’ve heard positive words about industrial strategy from the Prime Minister, but it’s action that counts.
“When parliament returns, the Prime Minister should waste no time in announcing a clear and final decision to build a new runway at Heathrow.
Reuters The letter calls on Theresa May to make a clear decision next week
“The Heathrow decision is a big test for the government. Ministers must show they are prepared to make the right choices so that working people do not pay the price for Brexit.
“That means getting a move on with a proper industrial strategy backed by public investment. Otherwise Britain will struggle to create decent jobs and attract new business.”
Last month, 36 Conservative MPs led by the former party chairman Grant Shapps , wrote to May to demand a decision on Heathrow, saying it was “a matter of extreme urgency”.
The letter in full
Dear Prime Minister,
More than a year since the Airports Commission issued its final report, we write on behalf of trade union members across the UK to urge the Government to implement its recommendation for the construction of a new London runway, without further delay.
The aviation and aerospace industries employ many thousands of trade union members in high-skill, high-quality jobs. Aviation also supports further employment in industries such as construction, manufacturing and tourism. Research for the Airports Commission found that a new third runway at Heathrow could deliver at least £147bn to UK GDP and 70,000 new jobs in the South East, and many more nationwide.
A commitment to build a third runway at Heathrow, based on the clear recommendations of the Airports Commission, would be a sign of support for a pro-growth, pro-jobs industrial strategy. The Airports Commission called for training opportunities and apprenticeships for local people, so that nearby communities benefit from jobs generated by the new infrastructure. It argued that Heathrow Airport Ltd should work with local authorities and schools to ensure local people, including young people, are able to benefit from this project and that Heathrow Airport Ltd should support the London Living Wage. Needless to say, this call was fully supported by trade unions.
Unions and their members were pivotal to the delivery of previous major infrastructure projects such as Heathrow Terminal 5 and the London 2012 Olympic Games. We now stand ready to work to help the Government successfully deliver this next major national infrastructure project.
We therefore urge the Government to announce a clear and final decision to build a new third runway at Heathrow based on the recommendations of the Airports Commission. Any further delay in the decision will harm the whole of UK Plc.
Yours sincerely,
Frances O’Grady , General Secretary, TUC
Len McCluskey , General Secretary, Unite
Tim Roche , General Secretary, GMB
Mike Clancy , General Secretary, Prospect
Brian Strutton , General Secretary, British Airline Pilots Association

The stage star, who rose to fame on British talent shows Popstars and Pop Idol, has been friends with the model for a number of years and has admitted they did try and give dating a go before deciding to keep their relationship platonic.
He explained he met her dad Gavin Rossdale and the pair grew close, but what people didn't realise was they were friends even when he was married, and didn't date until after he split from his wife.
"There was a shift that happened a few months ago where we thought we'd go from friends to dating," he told The Sun on Sunday.

"When you're friends first, you know all of each other's s**t. That made being more than friends really easy."
He said it made it a natural and fun relationship and there were no awkward first dates - insisting she's not the party girl people think she is, although they would enjoy a few tequilas.

He joked: "As she's about to do Strictly , I'd put it like this - we were great at jiving, we tried to tango, now we're back to jiving."
The 36-year-old star added that Daisy is excited about the show and could be a big hit with viewers as she's a "great dancer."
Darius recently revealed he was single and previously divorced wife Natasha Henstridge in 2013 after two years of marriage.

X Factor's Christian Burrells reveals family heartbreak behind emotional audition

If you’re half the softie I am, you’d have been welling up if you watched Christian Burrells’ X Factor audition...
The 19-year-old nightclub barman bowled over the judges - and left Nicole and Sharon streaming with tears - after performing a song he’d written for his late brother Nathan.
An emotional Christian tells me little Nathan died of cot death, aged just two months.
He said: “He sadly passed away in the middle of the night. It was unexplained and obviously a really hard time for the family.”

Now he’s hoping to make his parents Nicole, 43, and security firm employee Richard, 42, proud.
He said: “What happened is one of the worst things that could ever happen to anyone and it still affects mum today.
“And the song I’ve written is more about what could have been, rather than what was, because I don’t really remember him.
“I first played her what I’d written about it in my kitchen and she burst into tears and we had a hug.

“But at the audition I haven’t seen her that happy in ages. She cried but I think they were tears of joy.
“I just hope Nathan would be proud.”
If he makes it to the live finals his big dream would be to duet with his idol, Ed Sheeran. I’m rooting for you, Christian…

A woman has had her arm ripped off in a freak accident when she was trying to close the window of her car.
It is believed she had been leaning into her vehicle to turn on the power to use the electric window at just after 4pm yesterday.
But the car moved forward as it had been left in gear, ripping her arm off at the elbow, according to police.

A Devon and Cornwall police spokesman said: "What appears to have happened is that she has lent into the car to close the electric windows, she has turned on the ignition to get the power to turn the electric windows to close but unfortunately the car was in gear and the car has lurched forward trapping her hand/arm.
"In the process of doing that it has taken her arm off."
He added although the pensioner had suffered "life-changing injuries" it is hoped surgeons will be able to re-attach the arm and she will make a good recovery.

The boys get a shock when they see Bex' new look
Shakil and Mark Fowler (newcomer Ned Porteous) are fast becoming mates. And where a pair of lads goes, the young women usually follow.
Except, that is, Bex, who bails on a day out at the last minute. But if that was a surprise for Shak, just look at his and Mark’s face when they see Bex at the market, showing off a radically different image.
Later in the week, Shakil is celebrating his sweet sixteenth birthday. Carmel has been preparing a traditional party – including a visit from Shak’s dad. The boys have other ideas, and Mark manages to sneak out a box of booze while his brother’s back is turned.

Meanwhile, Sharon and Ian are shocked to hear that Mark’s got his eye on one of the ladies in the Square...
Look who's Dot to trot
BBC Dot shows off her moves
As Square stalwart Dot, actress June Brown has been on the soap for nearly three decades.
She’s had plenty of lows, and not too many highs.
But in all of those years, did you ever think you’d see her doing a Latin dancing routine?
This week, Kim suggests a salsa show and Dot sees it as a way for Patrick to win back Claudette. After all, who doesn’t like a man who can dance?
So Dot shows him how to do it. They’re not at Strictly level yet, but we’d give them a 10 for effort!
Whatever it is, it faint good
BBC Denise faints in front of Kim and Carmel
Denise is all set to show off her best moves at Kim’s salsa show.
She even has a lesson from Carmel (played by Bonnie Langford who – after her turn on Dancing on Ice – we know can move!).
During their rehearsal, Denise feels unwell so her friend takes her home. Things go from bad to worse when she faints on the sofa with Kim and Carmel, who tells her she should see a doctor.
Denise looks as though she fears the worst – what’s going on?

Celebrity Big Brother star Chloe Khan has given fans a sneak-peak inside her luxury mansion.
The busty beauty said she wanted to set the record straight after being accused of exaggerating her wealth.
Hitting back at rumours she's "broke", Chloe uploaded a video tour inside her sprawling home, where she sits behind a large oak desk with a sign reading ' Chloe Khan , CEO'.
The clip shows a large, imposing entrance and Chloe taking a lift up to the first floor.

A large living room features a huge sofa, open fireplace and balcony with stunning views.
We're then given a peak inside a huge meeting room with an eight-seater table and bizarrely, what looks like a roll of tin foil.
"So apparently I'm not a Playboy model and I paid thousands of pounds to get into a party," Chloe says, raising the covers of Playboy magazines featuring her image on the front.
"This is my home, I love my home and I worked very hard for it," she says. "Now I live the life that I do, I shouldn't have to try and justify it to people."

Chloe's comments come weeks after ex-boyfriend and father of her daughter Destiny, Ian Hough, branding her 'fame-hungry'.
Chloe did not name anyone in her video, but gave viewers a view inside her eight-year-old's room, saying she "wouldn't go into too many details" because it was "an emotional subject for her".
She said: "My little girl is my absolute life, she's beautiful, she's talented, she's amazing."

Last night Stephen Bear made a beeline for Chloe after he was crowned the winner of this year's series of the reality show.
Bear planted a huge kiss on Chloe's lips, much to her delight, before heading off to be interviewed by Emma Willis.
During his time in the house, Bear clarified the pair aren't strictly a couple, saying: "Well I didn't use the words 'girlfriend and boyfriend' so technically we're not. I don't make quick jumps into relationships."

The world of sports entertainment is mourning the loss of WWE Hall of Famer Harry Fujiwara.
The 82-year-old passed away on Sunday morning.
Harry was best know to wrestling fans by his stage name, Mr Fuji, and he represented the WWF, as the company was called during his tenure, as both a wrestler in the ring and as a manager for other stars in his later years.
The WWE put out a statement that read: "Fuji spent over 30 years entertaining fans worldwide as both an in-ring competitor and one of WWE’s greatest managers.
WWE Former professional wrestler Harry Fujiwara aka Mr Fuji has passed away
"A five-time WWE World Tag Team Champion, Fuji was infamous for keeping small bags of salt in his tights which he would throw into his opponents’ eyes."
They continued: "After retiring from the ring, Fuji managed a litany of WWE’s most feared Superstars, such as George 'The Animal' Steele, Kamala, Killer Khan, Demolition, The Powers of Pain, Yokozuna and most notably, 'Magnificent' Don Muraco.
"With Muraco, Fuji treated WWE fans to the classic Fuji Vice, Fuji General, Fuji Bandito and Fuji Chan series.

"These series were ahead of their time because spoofing successful television shows as they tried to break into Hollywood was the epitome of sports-entertainment."
The WWE added that Mr Fuji's career will be remembered by different generations for different reasons, but Mr Fuji is one of the most entertaining performers in the history of WWE.
Condolences have flooded in from current wrestling stars including Triple H, who said: "An unforgettable character in front of the camera and an even better one behind it. Rest in Peace, Mr. Fuji."

Oliver Dearlove murder: Banker’s heartbreaking last text to girlfriend before a stranger’s punch killed him
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

A City banker who died from a single punch during a night out with pals texted his girlfriend to say that he loved her just two hours before he was fatally attacked .
Oliver Dearlove, 30, a former employee of the royal bank Coutts, was attacked in Blackheath, south east London, in the early hours of Sunday.
He was airlifted to hospital, but medics were unable to save him and he was pronounced dead on Sunday night.
He had been with university friends in Blackheath who rushed to his aid to try revive him following the "vicious" assault.
His heartbroken mother Joy Wright, 56, described him as a "perfect young man."
Speaking at the family home in Chislehurst, south east London, she said: "He was very popular, he was easy-going, he had a lot of friends.
"He worked hard, he was the perfect son. We can't believe what's happened. We're all in a state of shock."
Met Police Police have launched a murder investigation and appealed for witnesses to come forward
She added: "I'm absolutely devastated, he had so much more life to live, he was going to Vegas next week with his friends.
"He played lots of football, he got on with everyone, he was a perfect young man.
"He had so many plans with his girlfriend as well, they were talking about getting a house together and having a baby.
"He and his friends from uni met up in Blackheath, had lunch, dinner, some drinks. At 10pm he texted his girlfriend to say that he loved her.
"I don't think there was any kind of altercation or fight. Someone picked a fight with him, punched him, and he fell backwards, maybe hit his head, and that was that.
"I think he stopped breathing when he hit the floor. His friends tried to give him CPR to save him but nothing could be done.
"I think someone might have said to his friends something like 'what are you looking at?' but no real confrontation."
Google Mr Dearman was attacked in Blackheath Village
Oliver lived with his girlfriend, Claire Wheatley in Eltham, south east London, and the couple had been together for four years.
He worked as a relationship manager for private bank Duncan Lawrie and had previously worked for Coutts, the Queen's bank, and Barclays.
Colleagues said they were shocked at his death, with Doug Keightley, marketing manager at Duncan Lawrie describing him as a "very, very popular guy."
Oliver played football for local team Lord Hood FC and comes from a family of three brothers, two step-brothers and a step-sister.

Keane will call time on his international career after this evening
Robbie Keane will make his final appearance for the Republic of Ireland as they take on Oman tonight.
The former Tottenham striker will retire from international football following the friendly at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin.
Keane, 36, will make his 146th and final appearance for his country and will be hoping to add to his record 67-goal tally.
The LA Galaxy hitman has played in two European Championships and one World Cup in a 16-year international career, establishing himself as one of his country's most iconic footballers.
Keane was named in Martin O'Neill's squad for the upcoming World Cup qualifier against Serbia but confirmed he would not take part in the fixture and announced his international retirement.
Claudio Villa Keane is his country's record goal scorer
The former Spurs striker has 67 strikes for the Republic of Ireland
In a statement, Keane said: “It has been a wonderful journey for me to have played with the Irish national team for over eighteen years since I made my senior international debut back in 1998. I have enjoyed it all.
“It has also been a great honour, for both me and my family, to have been given the opportunity to captain my country for over ten years.
“As a young boy growing up in Dublin playing football on the street I could never have imagined the path my life would take – it has exceeded my wildest expectations.

“I have been extremely lucky to have had the opportunity to play for and captain my country – it was my ultimate goal all those years ago and it has been, by far, my greatest achievement.
“I would never have believed all those years ago that I would get the opportunity to play for my country 145 times and to score 67 goals and through it all, I have never stopped chasing the next one!
“I have been on the most incredible journey with the Irish team and fans over the last 18 years and words cannot express how proud I am to be Irish."

X Factor fans forced to sit through 30 minutes of adverts as ratings plummet
The X Factor fans were forced to sit through 30 minutes of adverts as it's revealed ratings have tumbled.
The talent show got off to a shaky start, opening with an average audience of 6.8million - its lowest start to a season for a decade.
Viewing figures were down 800,000 on last year’s opening episode - despite Simon Cowell publicly calling 2015’s panel including Rita Ora and Nick Grimshaw “a mistake”, putting his hopes on returning judges Louis Walsh, Sharon Osbourne and Nicole Scherzinger to be a ratings winner.
Last year’s show opened at 7.6million, before slumping to an all time low of 5.2million.

Simon, 56, opened Saturday night’s episode claiming this series saying would see the show be “interesting and fun again”.
He has previously said of bringing back a bygone panel: “I think it will improve the show.
"It is going to feel very different from last year. But it will remind you of the things you used to love in previous years.”

Saturday night’s show peaked at 7.5million viewers and scored a 34% share of the audience, but last year’s debut reached a million more, at a high of 8.5million, averaging 7.11million with an audience share of 39%.
The last time the figures were as low was in 2005, when just 6.6million tuned into the first of the season.
Many fans seemed put off by the quantity of adverts in this weekend’s 90 minute programme.

The show’s actual running time was just over 66 minutes, meaning viewers watched almost 30 minutes of adverts during its broadcast.
That means ads were screened for almost half as much time as the programme ran.
Fuming viewers raged on Twitter: “Well I really enjoyed the 5000 adverts and about 3 auditions that were on @TheXFactor tonight....”

An hour in, one estimated: “Nearly one hour in and I’m pretty sure I can count the amount of auditions there has been on one hand #XFactor #ads.”
“Two performances followed by an ad break. Some things never change! #xfactor,” added another.
One even joked: “Why does the X Factor keep interrupting this 2 hour epic adverts session?”

Another younger viewer admitted that the popularity of ad free streaming services such at Netflix and Now TV have made adverts stand out as even more of an annoyance, posting: “So used to streaming stuff on my own schedule without adverts that I am finding watching xfactor excruciating. An ad after each audition?!”
The BBC scored 5.1million viewers for its 30th anniversary episode of Casualty.
Syco / Thames / Dymond Rebekah Ryan made the judges cry - for the right reasons
Tonight's X Factor saw single mum Rebekah Ryan, 40, leave the judges in tears as she performed a heartbreaking rendition of Sarah McLachlan’s In The Arms Of An Angel, after revealing she lost her three-year-old son, Ethan, who suffered from Sandhoff Syndrome.
Rebekah, mum to seven-year-old Sebastian, told the Mirror it was her son who encouraged her to audition a second time, after reaching Louis Walsh’s judges’ houses segment in 2007.
“He woke up one morning and said: ‘I think you need to do it again.’ It spurred me on to give it another shot. He’s my rock.”

Step aside Kanye - Beyonce just owned the MTV VMAs 2016.
The singer performed a perfect rendition of her entire visual album Lemonade on stage, showing off some of her most famous dance routines and a stream of revealing outfits - gaining her a standing ovation and a speechless reaction from the hosts.
The star showed off her incredible figure in a variety of barely-there outfits, as she twerked, danced and threw herself round the stage with fire, incredible light displays and more.

She performed her whole album
Performing every hit from Sorry to Formation and Pray You Catch Me, the star managed to own the stage and make it the Beyonce show.
The set, which lasted around 15 minutes uninterrupted, saw Bey strip down and get up close and personal with her backing dancers.
Her daughter Blue Ivy was in the audience, but her hubby Jay Z appeared to give it a miss.
She flaunted her peachy bum
Beyonce SLAYED on stage
“I died when I saw Beyonce in concert and now I’m going to die again,” one thrilled fan tweeted.
Another joked: “This is the Beyonce concert featuring the VMAs and I’m here for it.”
And she followed a very chirpy Kanye West tonight, who launched into one of his epic rants - this time taking aim at his ex Amer Rose and rival Taylor Swift.

After praising his close friend Beyonce - despite them being in competition tonight - Kanye called out his ex Amber Rose in the audience, before throwing shade at his rival Taylor, who chose not to attend.
"I might lose to Beyonce, but I can't be mad, I'm always wishing for Beyonce to win," he began, before addressing his latest controversial music video for Fame.

Finally making reference to THAT Taylor drama, Kanye said: "Bro, I love all of y’all. That’s why I called her."

As the final of Celebrity Big Brother got underway viewers were on tender hooks as they waited for Emma Willis to announce the winner.
But before that could happen, fans of the show got to take a look at the housemates who has been evicted over the past two weeks.
One by one they were all announced to a mixture of cheers and boos, but there was one star who was noticeable by his absence, Christopher Biggins .
Channel 5 Christopher Biggins was removed from the Celebrity Big Brother house
Every other housemate was there for the live final
Emma introduced every other evicted housemate, but Biggins, who was kicked out for using offensive language, was missing in action.
A Celebrity Big Brother source told Mirror Online: "Biggins has not been 'banned' from the final. Only evicted Housemates attend the final."
X Factor star Katie Waissel, who had been made to cry by Biggins, seemed to have no idea why former housemate Biggins was removed despite the anti-Semitic comments he made towards her .
Asked by Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford during a This Morning appearance following her eviction about what had happened after his sudden departure Katie said: "I didn't know what happened to be really honest with you.
ITV Katie Waissel was made to cry by Biggins in CBB
ITV The X Factor star said she didn't know why Biggins had been kicked out the house
"I was really concerned it was something to do with his family, so we were all just really, really shocked. Either that or he was just in it for a week to have a good time for a week?" she suggested.
Katie, 30, said the housemates were told nothing by Big Brother and Ruth hesitantly added: "I'm sure you will find out why..."
The ITV presenters were clearly reluctant to inform her of the full controversy that surrounded Biggins' exit with Eamonn instructing Katie: "Give him a ring while you're out."
The entertainer was booted out of CBB after he made a 'joke' about concentration camps to a Jewish Katie, he said after his exit: "I am mortified by what’s happened, really mortified. Most of my friends, in fact, are Jewish. I apologised to Big Brother and Katie.”

Big Brother's Laura Carter claims CBB winner Stephen Bear 'begged her for sex' after they 'spent the night kissing'

She enjoyed a steamy romp with Marco Pierre White Jr in this year's Big Brother .
But it seems Marco isn't the only reality star to have crossed paths with Laura Carter .
The 30-year-old claims she had a night out with CBB winner Stephen Bear last November where they spent the evening snogging before he turned up at her house hoping for a 'booty call'.
"We met on a night out, spent the night kissing and were all over each other and then carried on messaging each other for a while," Laura told The Sun.

Channel 5 Stephen Bear was crowned the winner of CBB on Friday
"He kept telling everybody in the club I was a 10/10 and he had to get with me.
"I ended up leaving quite early to go to bed that night and he then showed up at my door at 6AM with some friends,” she said. "I’d just woke up and he was on his knees begging to come in for a booty call."
Laura, who famously enjoyed a threesome with Justin Bieber, says she declined Stephen's advances, but remained coy when asked about how far their relationship had gone.
She added: "We haven't done anything too sexual yet, that's all I'm saying. I will be getting in touch with him."

We have contacted reps for Bear for comment.
Bear, who was crowned the winner of CBB on Friday night, was in a relationship with Lillie Lexi Gregg when he entered the house but dumped her on national television after locking lips with fellow housemate Chloe Khan .
When host Emma Willis asked him why he couldn't wait until he left the house to break up with Lillie, Stephen claimed he was trying to to "save her" from heartache.
Laura Carter famously romped with Marco, the son of celebrity chef Marco Snr - who went into the house with a fiancée.

Hillsborough cop arrested on suspicion of rape after alleged hotel sex attack

The officer is working on Operation Resolve, probing the disaster
A police officer working on the criminal investigation into the Hillsborough disaster has been arrested on suspicion of rape.
The man, who has been bailed pending further inquiries, has since been removed from the inquiry, known as Operation Resolve.
It is understood the detective was arrested after a woman claimed she was raped in a hotel in Warrington, Cheshire, the town where the investigation is based.
On the night of the alleged sex attack, it is believed some of the almost 200 strong disaster inquiry team had been enjoying a social event.
A spokesman for the inquiry said yesterday: “Operation Resolve is aware of an allegation made against a member of our staff. That member of staff has been returned to their home force while Cheshire Police investigate the complaint.
“Given this investigation is ongoing, it would not be appropriate for us to comment any further.”
A statement from Cheshire Police said: “A 47-year-old man from Bolton was arrested on Wednesday 8 June 2016 on suspicion of rape. He has been bailed pending further enquiries.”

Operation Resolve is the criminal inquiry into the disaster which was set up by the then Home Secretary Theresa May following the publication of the Hillsborough Independent Panel report in 2012.
It is examining the full circumstances surrounding the planning and preparation for the 1989 FA Cup semi-final in Sheffield, which claimed the lives of 96 Liverpool fans.
Hillsborough police probe looks into Freemason influence in aftermath of disaster
Possible offences being investigated include gross negligence manslaughter, misconduct in a public office and perverting the course of justice.
The inquiry is running alongside a IPCC investigation into the actions of South Yorkshire police before, during and after the tragedy.
More than 40 police officers from 16 forces across the UK have been seconded to Operation Resolve.
They are being assisted by more than 140 police and agency staff.
Operation Resolve is due to complete its work by the end of the year.
Getty Images Fans escaping the crush
Its evidence will then be handed to the Crown Prosecution Service who will decide if any charges should be brought against individuals and organisations.
Senior Investigating Officer, Detective Chief Superintendent Neil Malkin said last week: “We have already provided a series of files to the CPS and we will provide the final files by the turn of the year.
“We have to cover everything and ensure there are no gaps and we need the public’s help with that.
“I am duty bound to follow all lines of reasonable enquiry - if some of those lines of enquiry are driven towards a particular individual I am duty bound to gather all that information.”
Investigators from Operation Resolve have so far spoken to 1,200 spectators who were at the Hillsborough stadium for the match between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest.
And last week they appealed for 19 people, who may have crucial information, to come forward.
Those fans were close to Exit Gate C seconds before it was opened and allowed supporters on to the already packed central pens on the Leppings Lane terraces.
In April an inquest jury concluded the 96 victims of the disaster were unlawfully killed.

Doctors appointments need to be longer to stop GP surgeries being 'run into the ground'
GPs appointments should be lengthened to 15 minutes and limited to 25 a day per doctor , industry leaders have said.
The British Medical Association (BMA) suggested the changes to current to in a bid to stop general practice being “run into the ground”.
The proposals come as part of Safe Working Levels in General Practice, a report which discusses measures which could help tackle growing workload of GPs.
Appointments are normally allocated 10 minutes, meaning that some doctors see up to 60 patients a day.
The BMA said the time does not give GPs enough time to treat patients with complicated needs.
Thinkstock The BMA said the time does not give GPs enough time to treat patients with complicated needs
BMA GPs committee executive team member Brian Balmer said: “In a climate of staff shortages and limited budgets, GP practices are struggling to cope with rising patient demand, especially from an ageing population with complicated, multiple health needs that cannot be properly treated within the current 10-minute recommended consultation.
“Many GPs are being forced to truncate care into an inadequate time frame and deliver an unsafe number of consultations, seeing in some cases 40 to 60 patients a day.
“This is well above the 25 consultations per day, which is the recommended level in many other EU countries.”
The report also recommends the introduction of “locality hubs” - a central facility where demand, patient lists and safe working limits would be managed for a number of local practices - as GPs could benefit from the way pressure would be taken off individual practices.

Dr Balmer added: “We need a new approach that shakes up the way patients get their care from their local GP practice.
“The consultation time needs to increase to 15 minutes with the Government providing on its promised funding to make this work.
“As part of the package, more GPs must be put in front of patients so that the number of consultations per GP a day falls to a sustainable level.
“We need to learn from best practice across the UK and look at options, where appropriate, for organising GP practices into hubs, where knowledge and resources can be shared.
“General practice in the UK cannot be allowed to continue being run into the ground: it’s time for positive change that gives patients the care they deserve.”

Isabelle Graham denies the accusations that she was in bed with a pupil
A French teacher and devout Christian is accused of having been caught in bed with a pupil during a school prom night.
Isabelle Graham was caught by a sixth form student lying in a Travelodge bed with another pupil , a hearing has heard.
The hearing was shown a photograph of the room which, it is alleged, shows the teacher in bed and the pupiil standing near the door.
The teacher, who was not present or represented at the Edinburgh hearing, denies the charges and claims to have no recollection of events after 10.30pm, having drunk four glasses of wine.
Mrs Graham – who was engaged at the time of the incident and is now married – resigned from her position at Whitburn Academy after the allegations came to light.
The General Teaching Council for Scotland (GTCS) accuses Mrs Graham of going with the boy from the Carlton Highland Hotel in Edinburgh where the prom took place in June 2014 to a nearby Travelodge in Waterloo Place.
Daily Record Isabelle, now married to Andrew Wilkie, has resigned from her position after the claims were made
The former teacher at Whitburn Academy, West Lothian, is alleged to have spent three hours alone with the teenager, drinking with him, sharing a bed with him and "repeatedly engaged in sexual activity" with him.
The disciplinary panel heard from Fraser Thomson, a council employee who investigated the case.
Mr Thomson said that the investigation began when senior teaching staff were made aware that "a photograph had been uploaded on social media".
Describing the photo presented to staff, he said: "The pupil standing in the door is Pupil A. You can see there what appears to be a lady in the bed there.
"The colour of the picture showed the lady with long blonde hair."
The photo was taken by another pupil who was meant to be sharing a room with Pupil A but returned numerous times to find the teacher in the room.
Mr Thomson said evidence from students outlined how they saw "Pupil A and Mrs Graham lying on the bed, one on top of the covers and one underneath the covers".
In an interview between himself and Mrs Graham, Mr Thomson said she claimed "she was unable to recall events after 10.30pm" because she had drunk four glasses of wine.
She claimed that her first recollection after 10.30pm was "when she woke up in her flat at about 5.00am".
She also admitted that four glasses of wine would not normally intoxicate her to that level, and said of the hair in the photograph: "It looks like my hair."
But she denied recognising the young man in the photograph.
NMC case presenter Carla Roth said that Mrs Graham's claim that she was "totally out of it" as a result of her drinking "differs from comment made by any witness".
Daily Record Former teacher Isabelle Graham with her husband Andrew Wilkie
The allegations sparked a police investigation at the time - but no charges were brought.
Mrs Graham - who now lives abroad - did not appear at the hearing, despite being offered a videolink service.
The second witness called was DS Keith Mailer, who investigated the incident for Police Scotland.
He said that Mrs Graham "was concerned that her drink was spiked" but that there was no evidence of this when she was tested at a hospital.
Speaking about CCTV video from the night, he said: "Throughout the footage there's no sign that Mrs Graham is under the excessive influence of drugs or alcohol."
Footage also showed the teacher and student kissing, he said, adding: "The way she moved and conducted herself suggested someone who was making conscious decisions."
Police Scotland raised charges against Mrs Graham, but the Procurator Fiscal did not pursue them, citing a lack of evidence.
Mrs Graham had provided a statement to be read in her defence at the hearing.
In it, she claimed that she had been the "victim" on the night - reiterating that she had no recollection of the events.
She said that if the photo taken on the night did feature her, she was clearly unconscious and therefore it was "posed" without her consent.
Daily Record Mrs Graham had been a teacher at Whitburn Academy
She went on: "The person in the bed in the photo is clearly not in control of the situation."
Responding to DS Mailer's claim that CCTV evidence showed no signs of intoxication, she also claimed that date rape drugs are available which leave victims lucid, but hinder their decision-making ability.
She also said she was an "active and practising Christian" who was "waiting until marriage" before having sex.
Mrs Graham's husband, Andrew Wilkie, who is training to enter the clergy, acted as her representative at the procedural hearing.
He also submitted a statement to the panel. He said: "In all the time I have known her, Mrs Graham has always put her Christian faith above all other things.
"I have never had any doubt that the allegations made against Mrs Graham were false."
He also accused West Lothian Council of making "slanderous comments to her and about her character."
The hearing was adjourned until Tuesday so that the panel could consider its decision.

Wenger will allow Calum Chambers to leave on a temporary basis
Newly-promoted Hull City and Middlesbrough are among a clutch of clubs chasing Arsenal defender Calum Chambers.
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has admitted they will allow 21-year-old Chambers to go out on loan this season to gain regular first team experience.
Wenger insisted the signing of Shkodran Mustafi would not affect his long term future but confirmed a loan move is on the cards.
Wenger said: “Future? No. The fact that he could go out somewhere and play? Yes.”

West Ham have also enquired but Arsenal want Chambers to go and play as a centre back while there has also been interest from Stoke and Derby. There has been foreign interest as well with Espanyol, Valencia and Roma.
Hull and Boro could potentially offer regular games and Chambers is likely to decide in the next 48 hours after Arsenal receive offers.

Liverpool fans give Anfield's new Main Stand their seal of approval it is unveiled at test event

Liverpool's faithful are buzzing after a test event revealed how their beloved Anfield will feel after the completion of their stadium's new Main Stand.
A test event was attended by 5,000 fans on Friday night as the work was unveiled to the public for the first time, writes Francesca Fizsimmons of the Liverpool Echo.
It’s been 625 days since work started - and tonight saw Liverpool fans sampled what life will be like when the stand officially opens.
A special U18s training session was the first of two ticket-only events, with the other seeing Liverpool’s ladies train on Monday.
The capacity has increased by 8,500, and now just over 54,000 fans will watch LFC at home on match days.
As well as the added seating, guests were also wowed by the new bars, players entrance - and even the escalators.
Twitter user George Penno said: “Escalators in the main stand are absolutely boss #loving it”, while Leigh Davies said: “Walking round Anfield, crazy how much has changed on the Main Stand side!”
There were also other parts of the Main Stand that needed testing, as Andrew Molyneux pointed out.
He said: “The glamorous part of the #LFC Main Stand test event? Being asked to help test the drainage system by using the toilets in the next 5 mins!”
There was a lot of praise for the club’s owners on the new development, with many congratulating Fenway Sports Group on the new look stand.
Arsal Shakeel said: “The new main stand is huge and looks absolutely perfect! Credit to FSG.”
The £260m Anfield development also includes a food court and a new club shop on Walton Breck Road, but this will not be finished until 2017.
Aside from the changes inside the ground, a new concourse is also near to completion, housing the Hillsborough eternal flame, players’ entrance and a grove of acer trees from the German Black Forest.
The players’ entrance development means the team coach can drive directly under the stadium.
Liverpool’s first home game at the new-look Anfield will be against Premier League champions Leicester City on Saturday, September 10.

The Money Saving Expert reveals how you could be entitled to up to £500 if you've had your flight delayed since 2010

Martin Lewis reveals how you can get money back if your holiday flight was delayed
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

If you've had a delayed flight you could claim
If you’re one of millions who’ve just returned home after jetting away to the sun, a simple question – was your flight delayed?
If it is was, in fact if you’ve had any flight delayed since 2010, then EU regulation 261/2004 means you may be entitled to up to £500 per person in compensation.
This isn’t a niche thing. Almost everyday someone contacts me with a new success, like this from Clair: “Thanks. It was amazingly easy and within a month I had £1,415 from British Airways in my bank account.”
And while this protection may go once we leave the EU, for now it’s still firmly in place.
Getty If you've had a delayed flight since 2010 you could be entitled to claim
Here’s my five need-to-knows
You must have arrived more than three hours late. It’s the point at which the plane doors open that count. If your delay was a few years ago and you’re struggling to remember, try checking on flightstats.com to see how late yours was. It must be an EU flight. That’s defined as any flight which departed from an EU airport. For flights arriving at an EU airport, it must also be an EU airline to qualify. The compensation is fixed, based solely on delay and journey length. So a three-hour short-haul delay is around £200 per person, while a four-hour plus delay half way across the world is £500. It must be the airline’s fault. Bad weather or airport closure doesn’t count. Yet most technical problems with the plane, or not enough staff do count. You’re entitled to cash. Many airlines will try and get away with offering you flight vouchers, if they do then ask for cash.
Don’t pay to do this. My full guide mse.me/flightdelays includes a totally free automated complaints tool, built in collaboration with complaints site Resolver.
Financial expert Martin Lewis
It auto-drafts your complaint, sends it, keeps track and escalates it to the Civil Aviation Authority if necessary.
My feedback has been great, as Lee emailed: “Raised the claim and £628 was actually in my bank four days later – just incredible. Thank you and Resolver.”
If you’ve tried before last year’s landmark EU court ruling that you can claim for most technical faults – try again.
Jacqueline told me “My original claim was unsuccessful but you said ‘don’t give up – claim again’, I did and they’re giving us £774”.
It’s worth noting that while I normally talk about reclaiming cash wrongly taken from you, this is compensation. So there is a moral element, as it can be unfair on airlines.
Someone who bought a £10 flight that was three hours and a minute late, is still due a flat £200 compensation.
And if we all went for it, flight prices could rise. So weigh up whether claiming is fair.
If your delay was no biggie, just an enjoyable few hours in a bar, perhaps don’t claim.
Yet if you were stuck in a hot foreign airport overnight with distraught children, give it a go.

Johanna Konta cruises into the US Open second round after beating Bethanie Mattek-Sands
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Johanna Konta began her US Open campaign with the minimum of fuss as she sailed past Bethanie Mattek-Sands and into round two.
Konta was the second women's match in the tournament's freshly built Grandstand arena, although there were few fans to watch as the British number one overcame Mattek-Sands 6-3 6-3.
She will now face Bulgarian Tsvetana Pironkova, a Wimbledon semi-finalist six years ago, for a place in the third round.
As Phil Collins could be heard nearby, ushering in the new US dollars 150million roof to a packed-out Arthur Ashe Stadium, Konta quietly demolished her opponent, who was celebrating a mixed doubles Olympic gold medal only two weeks ago.
Konta admitted afterwards to being a fan of Collins and was disappointed to be out of ear-shot.
PAUL CROCK/AFP/Getty Images The British number one cruised through in straight sets
"I was hoping I could hear him, but not clear enough," Konta said. "I do like him."
Back on court, Mattek-Sands was a tricky proposition, crafty from the back and cool at the net, but Konta's return was too consistent and her baseline game too strong.
"Every first round is where you need to find your feet, get into the rhythm of the tournament, and grand slams are that a much more exciting so I think I did a good thing with that," Konta said.
"I think with Bethanie, the more emotion, the more tension that comes into a match, the better she plays, the more inspired she plays.
"It was important to make it as business-like as possible."
Flushing Meadows was where Konta enjoyed her breakthrough run 12 months ago, reaching the fourth round when she had previously managed just one grand slam victory in her whole career.
REUTERS/Jason O'Brien Konta has shot up the rankings after a remarkable year
She has shot up the rankings since, from 97th to 16th, and a semi-final at the Australian Open in January has many predicting a renewed challenge on the hard courts here.
"It's definitely never easy coming out for a first round of a slam especially against Bethanie, coming off a gold medal," Konta said.
"I knew she would be inspired and feed off the atmosphere. Thank you to everyone who stayed and supported us.
"It's pretty exciting to play in here, it's a shame we weren't the first, but it's pretty special, the whole venue."
Konta started with an ace before Mattek-Sands framed a return into the stands, the ball bouncing through three empty rows before eventually being retrieved.
GREG WOOD/AFP/Getty Images Konta made it through without dropping her serve
A break for 2-1 put the Briton in command and she was happy to meet Mattek-Sands' varied game head on, once luring her opponent in with a drop-shot before volleying into an empty court.
Two sumptuous returns were enough to break again and seal the opening set, and she pulled ahead in the second too, another break putting her 3-1 in front.
Mattek-Sands served and volleyed in a bid to turn the tide and she threatened a comeback, opening up three break points at 4-2.
Konta, however, saved them all and then served out, a backhand winner sealing a convincing victory in one hour and 22 minutes.
Pironkova, under-rated at 71 in the world, will offer a sterner test but, in this form, the Briton will be confident of going through.
"She's a great player, been highly ranked," Konta said. "Her tennis level is very, very good. She has a lot of experience. In terms of specifics, I'll have to talk to my coach."

Drunk driver who fell asleep with loaded gun on his lap jailed for five and a half years

Nathan Gardier was found drunk and asleep at the wheel and with a loaded gun in his lap
A father of two who fell asleep in traffic with a loaded gun on his lap after he had been drinking has been jailed.
Nathan Gardier was over the limit when he nodded off in the driving seat at a set of traffic lights in east London earlier this month, while in possession of a 9mm pistol.
The 24-year-old claimed, his barrister said, to have found the weapon in a field, but that explanation was "utterly implausible", Recorder Sally Hales QC said.
Google Gardier was arrested when he was found asleep with a 9mm pistol at these traffic lights in east London
Gardier, who pleaded guilty to having a firearm and ammunition in a public place , and being in charge of a motor vehicle while above the legal alcohol limit, apologised at the time of his arrest and said it was "probably fate", Snaresbrook Crown Court heard.
Mohammed Bashir, representing Gardier, said his client had told him the incident at Willow Walk shortly before 10am on August 4, and arrest "must be something God has put in my path for a reason".
Gardier had lost custody of his two children a year earlier, the court heard, and Mr Bashir said it was the accumulative effect of this, not being able to see them and losing his warehouse job some months later that led to the incident.
He said Gardier told him he was in a "dark place" at the time, adding: "Any other day I would not have touched that pistol."
Sentencing him to five and a half years imprisonment, Ms Hales said she must impose a strong term as a deterrent "because of the dangers such weapons can do particularly in the hands of the wrong people and that includes you Mr Gardier".
She added: "In your case the harm that you presented was worse because the firearm was loaded, ready to be fired, with a bullet in the chamber."
Gardier, of Falmer Road, Walthamstow, who was more than one and a half times the legal limit , was also disqualified from driving for a year.
He waved to tearful relatives as he left the dock.

Casualty at 30: 'It was a pitch-perfect episode mixing gore, heartache, drama and nostalgia'
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Bravo to Casualty – and Charlie Fairhead – who both clocked up 30 years tonight with a pitch-perfect episode mixing gore, heartache, drama and nostalgia.
I’m glad they didn’t go down the live route once mooted for this special ep – they didn’t need it.
You don’t need gimmicks when you've got an icon like Charlie to hang a show on.
This feature-length film showcased what Casualty does best – beautiful writing and a stellar cast who grab your heartstrings.
I grew up with this show and I love it. I felt like cheering every time one of the old guard pitched up for Charlie’s anniversary celebrations – and, I’m not ashamed to admit, shed a bit of a tear at the sight of our Charlie, Duffy and Josh shoulder to shoulder once more.
It was a sterling performance from all three, saluting our NHS heroes – who are, of course, what this show is all about.
BBC The BBC drama got Sharon's approval
Derek Thompson has played Charlie since 1986 – surviving shootings, an ambulance collision on his wedding day, a heart attack and a slew of dead colleagues and wives.
How many A-listers do YOU recognise? Kate Winslet and Martin Freeman among stars to get their big break on Casualty
His hair may have lost its bounce, but he hasn’t. Thompson delivered this heart-rending script as superbly as ever.
Kudos to the Beeb who’ve invested, nurtured and loved the show. The hospital may have been under threat last night, but this show certainly isn’t.

Watching it really made me wish drama bosses gave everything the same respect. The Bill had the same heart and soul once and should have clocked up 33 years by now.
And Pam St Clement’s gorgeous guest appearance reminded us what an awful decision it was to kill her off as EastEnders’ Pat.
Tonight proved that with good writing, love and a little faith, something 30 years old can look as fresh and exciting as the day it was born. Congratulations cast and crew to committing to something you love. Here’s to the next 30.

The Bachelor tries to make chocolate baths sexy but it's more like Augustus Gloop and the Oompa Loompas

Oh dear - The Bachelor has really taken things to a disgusting new level in a bizarre attempt at a sexy bath.
Replacing steamy hot water with melted chocolate, the scenes became less of a racy soak between two partners, and more something out of a disturbing Willy Wonka remake.
With Aussie Bachelor Richie Strahan set for a date with winning contestant Alex, producers tried to shake things up as their evening culminated in the pair sharing a tip in a bath filled with melted chocolate.

Charlie and the chocolate
Not surprisingly, Twitter has had a LOT to say about this.
Many viewers compared the awkward moment to scenes from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, which saw greedy boy Augustus Gloop take a tumble into a chocolate river.
Sharing a snap from the 1971 classic film, one fan wrote: "Bloody bring on the oompa loompas and put this date out of its mistery. (sic)"
Now Alex and Richie know what it feels like to be Augustus Gloop. #TheBachelorAU #ChocolateBath pic.twitter.com/TxaLhnV6av — Linh Chameleon (@CelebrateAwe) August 25, 2016
Another added: "Now Alex and Richie know what it feels like to be Augustus Glooop."
"This is the most awkward Easter of all time," quipped another viewer, while even the show's official Twitter account got in on the fun.
They wrote: "Oompa loompa doompety doo... (sic)"

Arsenal transfer news and rumours: PSG to seal £64m deal for Gunners target Julian Draxler?
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Paris Saint-Germain could complete a £64million deal for Arsenal target Julian Draxler before the transfer window shuts on Wednesday evening.
The Gunners had been expected to step up their interest in the German when he outlined his intent to leave Wolfsburg earlier this month.
But according to The Sun, the winger's agent Roger Wittmann is in the French capital to try and tie up a big-money deal.
Draxler is just 12 months into a five-year deal with the Bundesliga outfit.
Chambers set for Boro loan?
Stuart MacFarlane Chambers is reportedly set to join Middlesbrough
Arsenal defender Calum Chambers is reportedly set to join Middlesbrough on loan in a bid for more first-team football.
That is according to Goal, who say the versatile stopper will head to the Riverside on a temporary deal after falling down the pecking order at the Gunners.
New signings Shkodran Mustafi and Rob Holding have moved ahead of him with Chambers apparently keen to depart and play regular football.
The 21-year-old has been the subject of interest from Roma and Valencia, but Arsene Wenger feels he would be better suited to a move within England.
Wenger to allow Wilshere to leave on loan
Action Images via Reuters Wilshere could also be heading away on a temporary deal
Arsene Wenger is ready to let Jack Wilshere go out on loan in an effort to kick-start his career.
Wilshere has held crunch talks with Arsenal and expressed his fears about a lack of playing time which resulted in him being axed from the England squad.
Gunners boss Wenger still sees Wilshere as central to his long-term plans but is considering loaning him out to help him get regular games and get back to his best, writes Mirror Football's John Cross.
It is certain to alert a host of top Premier League clubs although Arsenal are unlikely to sanction a move to a top four rival.
That could open the door to a move abroad with Italy and Spain potential options. It is understood that Valencia made an effort to sign him on loan last season when Gary Neville was in charge of the club.
Perez lands at Heathrow
Getty Perez is set to complete his move to Arsenal
Lucas Perez touched down in London on Monday ahead of the announcement of his transfer from Deportivo La Coruna to Arsenal.
The 27-year-old had a black rucksack over his shoulders as he made his way through Heathrow Airport in a white t-shirt and black jeans, writes Mirror Football's Liam Corless.
Perez, who has agreed a long-term contract at the Emirates, will cost the Gunners £17million.
The Spanish striker has already passed his medical and should officially be announced as an Arsenal player on Tuesday.

Leicester City vs Swansea team news: Injury updates, possible line-ups and more
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

Premier League champions Leicester City have started their title defence shakily. One point from two games so far sees them sitting in lower mid-table, two points behind their opponents Swansea this weekend.
The Foxes can be forgiven for being a little overexcited. They’ve just delivered the club’s first-ever top-flight title and now discovered they’ll be playing the likes of Porto and Club Brugge in their maiden Champions League campaign.
Attention must return, however, to the pressing issue of domestic stability.

Nampalys Mendy (ankle) and Jeffrey Schlupp (thigh) will miss out for Claudio Ranieri’s side against Swnasea, but Danny Drinkwater is set to start after signing a new and improved five-year contract.
Wales international left back Neil Taylor is absent for the visitors as he recovers fitness following his involvement in Euro 2016 .
Swansea’s club-record signing Borja Baston , a £15million arrival from Atletico Madrid , is also sidelined. Scotland Under-21 international forward Oliver McBurnie is promoted to the first-team squad.
Ben Hoskins Swansea defender Neil Taylor vies for possession with Southampton's Shane Long last season
Leicester are unbeaten in 16 Premier League home matches since losing to Arsenal 5-2 11 months ago. They have won 10 and drawn six of those fixtures.
Should they fail to beat Swansea this weekend, it will be the first time that Leicester have gone more than four matches without a victory for the first time in 17 months.
Should Swansea win, it will be the first time they have recorded three consecutive away wins in the league for two years.

Manchester City's Joe Hart a transfer target for Torino as the Wednesday night deadline looms
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

Is there an Italian Job in Man City misfit Joe Hart's future?
Torino are ready to offer Joe Hart an escape from his Manchester City nightmare, writes Steve Bates in the Sunday People.
The Italian side have enquired about signing outcast Hart with new Etihad boss Pep Guardiola making it clear he is now the Blues' third-choice goalkeeper with no long-term future under his regime.
City, who also have Argentinian Willy Caballero on their books, have signed Barcelona’s Chile international keeper Claudio Bravo for £17million this week – and Hart now faces a dilemma over his future before the summer transfer window closes at 11pm on Wednesday night.
Sunderland are the only Premier League club so far to make their move to take Hart, who is still expected to be named in Sam Allardyce’s first England squad on Sunday night for a World Cup qualifier away to Slovakia next weekend.

Hart has few Premier League options, while all of Europe’s top sides have their goalkeeping positions secure.
The 29 year-old could decide to sit tight until the winter window in January — when form and fitness of other keepers may create vacancies — and to see how the situation unfolds at City, but it’s clear he has little hope of winning Guardiola around.
Moving to perennial relegation candidates Sunderland – who have just lost first-choice keeper Vito Mannone for three months through injury - would be a big step down for the two-time Premier League title winner.
Getty Hart played in City's midweek European game and was given a big send-off by the fans
But come Wednesday he may have few other viable options — not least because he is being paid a hefty £120,000-a-week by City.
I understand Hart would consider a move abroad and is waiting to see if Torino’s initial interest is followed up with a firm offer.
Turin's 'other' club, Torino exist in the shadow of neighbours Juventus, who have won the last five Serie A championships.
They finished 12th in Italy's top flight last season and opened the new campaign last weekend with a 3-2 defeat away to AC Milan.
Getty Sunderland are in for Hart after losing injured Mannone until at least November
They aren't one of Italy’s glamour clubs and did not qualify for Europe this season, but can offer Hart a different experience in both footballing and lifestyle terms.
The danger for Hart is making the wrong choice – especially as playing for England remains high on his list of priorities after winning 63 caps so far.

Sarah Parish opens up about the heartbreak of losing her baby daughter and the tot's parting gift to her mum
| null | null |

Sarah Parish has spoken out about her heartbreak about losing her baby daughter
It was just one, tiny smile, their baby daughter’s very first, but to actress Sarah Parish and her actor husband James Murray, it meant everything, because it was the last time they would ever see it.
Sarah, 48, quietly recalls that precious moment as she talks about the loss of Ella-Jayne , describing it as their baby’s parting “gift” before her death at just eight months old in January 2009.
Sarah says: “On her last day with us, Ella suddenly had this extraordinary burst of life. She’d never had the strength to take a bottle, but she managed to have three that day and then she gave us this smile.
“That smile was wonderful, one of my most precious memories.
“I like to think of it as her last gift to us and maybe her way of saying to us, as parents, ‘I’ve given everything I can... and you did all right’.”
Ella-Jayne, Sarah’s first child, was born with a rare genetic condition, Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome, which increases the risk of heart defects.

Up until her birth – a terrifying labour followed by the awful diagnosis of her condition – the actress says she and James, 41, had lived a “gilded” life, not knowing what tragedy meant.
But Ella-Jayne changed the couple completely.
Understandably, for years they found talking about their loss too painful, but the couple, who went on to have a second daughter, Nell, now six, say they are ready to talk about the saddest time in their lives in order to help others.
They have set up The Murray Parish Trust in Ella-Jayne’s memory, to raise funds for the Paediatric Intensive Care Unit at University Hospital Southampton where she was treated.
They are now trying to raise £2million for a state-of-the-art children’s emergency and trauma department to serve nine counties across southern and central England. The government has promised to match the funds if they hit their target.
Sarah says: “I don’t have bad days now. Instead, we feel it’s almost like we were blessed to know Ella-Jayne.
@Themurrayparish Sarah Parish and husband Jim Murray and the Murray Parish Trust
“Maybe the eight months we had with her were the eight months we were supposed to have. Of course, on her birthday and the day she died, there’s a lot of sadness. Every year, I write her a birthday card, which I keep for us.
“But there’s no heaviness or thinking, ‘Now I must live with this terrible thing’. It happened, and now we have to make something good come out of it.
“For a long time, we were scared of talking in public about what we went through, but setting up the charity has been a big comfort. It’s nice to know something good comes out of something tragic, and perhaps that terrible journey wasn’t in vain.
“I feel very proud of my daughter and what her legacy is achieving.”
Before Ella-Jayne was born, Sarah says her life and outlook could not have been more different.
The actress, who starred in Cutting It with Amanda Holden in 2002 and Unconditional Love with Robson Green in 2003, and had roles in Broadchurch and W1A, says she partied through her 20s and 30s, putting off marriage and babies.
Getty Sarah Parish and husband Jim Murray
She says: “I was living in London – going to the pub made me happy. I lived a crazy life and I enjoyed living that crazy life.”
She had grown up in Yeovil, Somerset, before moving to the capital to attend the Academy of Live and Recorded Arts.
She was often snapped partying with Cutting It pals Amanda Holden and Angela Griffin, who are still good friends today.
Being single wasn’t an issue.
She says: “I wasn’t panicking, I wasn’t thinking, ‘I must find a bloke’. I guess I had a sort of devil-may-care attitude to it. If I meet somebody, great. If not, no worries.”
Even after meeting James, who she calls Jim, who has starred in Primeval, Cucumber and Defiance, the pair were in no rush to become parents.
They fell for each other while filming Cutting It, although Sarah has admitted they had met once before and didn’t get on. She says: “I suspect it might have been because I’d had one or two glasses of wine and had a go at him for something.
BBC Amanda Holden and Sarah Parish in Cutting It
“Then, during Cutting It, we really started to get on. We were both seeing other people, so nothing happened, but after I finished the show, I realised that I really missed him.”
They married in 2007 and when they finally decided to have a baby, the pregnancy initially seemed to go very smoothly.
Sarah says: “It seemed easy. I had scans, including one at 20 weeks. I didn’t get checked again until May 2008, at 35 weeks when I went into hospital in Winchester.”
It was then that her life changed for ever. She knew immediately something was terribly wrong. She says: “I could see it in the doctors’ faces. A specialist told me my baby was very small for her dates.”
She was told Ella-Jayne needed to be induced and the heart rate monitor had shown her daughter was struggling. A terrified Sarah needed a caesarean section.
She says: “When she came out, Ella-Jayne gave one cry and went silent.”
The baby needed resuscitation and blood transfusions. After a harrowing time in hospital, the couple were eventually allowed to take her home, but within 12 hours, Ella-Jayne was recalled for more heart surgery. The couple were told she could die within 24 hours.
But Ella-Jayne remained in their lives until January, allowing them a precious Christmas with her. But the grief when she died was immense and Sarah and Jim quickly realised they needed to get away from home.
They took the courageous decision to immerse themselves in a different culture. And rather than steer clear of children, they spent two months volunteering at a Cambodian orphanage for disabled youngsters.
Sarah says: “We realised we needed to get away, especially from sympathetic looks and questions, so we went to Cambodia to be around children, and in another environment with trauma and upset.
“It helped put things into perspective because otherwise it’s very easy to think you’re the only people in the world to lose a child and go through something awful.”
She adds: “We took it in turns to prop each other up. Going through it together made us closer.”
ITV Robson Green and Sarah Parish in Unconditional Love
She had assumed she would never be able to have another baby, but in the summer of 2010, she discovered she was three months pregnant.
But during labour, she suffered placenta accreta, where the placenta becomes fixed to the cervix.
She says: “The birth was in the same hospital room where Ella was born. It was horrific because it seemed as though we were reliving the nightmare.”
Doctors could not find the baby’s heartbeat and Sarah thought she was losing another child. Medics also said she may need a hysterectomy and might also lose her bladder.
She says: “Poor Jim feared he’d lose me and the baby, but Nell was delivered safely and I was OK as well. She is a wonderful little girl and we’re so lucky to have her.”
Sarah describes the way she has been changed by tragedy as “fundamental”.
She says: “I have grown as a person and, of course, it’s deepened my empathy. Working for the charity can be emotionally draining, yet so worthwhile.
“I just want to go on and achieve even more in Ella’s name.”

Victim of horrific child abuse gives chilling account of her terrifying ordeal

The woman has bravely spoken out about her abuse
One victim of the Telford paedophiles gave a chilling account of her ordeal at the hands of child sex gangs who plagued the town.
The woman, now in her 30s, bravely spoke out as she backed calls for an independent inquiry into the abuse.
She said: “I was routinely abused by scores of men throughout most of my teenage years and I was forced to sleep with several men a night to make money for an older Pakistani ‘courier’.
“He sold me to men from a range of nationalities – a large proportion of whom were takeaway workers.
Roland Leon Pastors looking out for youths
“One night I was raped by eight men in quick succession.
“Like many victims, I was lured into the ring of abuse by one of my peers, who gave my phone number to older men in his community.
“As the abuse worsened, I was forced to have several abortions after falling pregnant to the paedophiles who had raped me.
“The attacks became so unbearable that I attempted suicide before moving away from Telford to escape my abusers. I didn’t have a childhood because they stole it.
Roland Leon Youths on their way home after the disco
“At school, I probably appeared like a normal teenager but my life was far from normal.
“I tried to make myself numb to what was happening to me but some of the rapes were just so horrific, I couldn’t switch off.
“I tried to end my own life because things were so bad I didn’t want to be here any more.

“It felt like there was no way out for me, or any of the others. None of us dared protest because we’d be beaten to a pulp and our abusers would threaten our families, or say they’d tell our parents we were prostitutes.
“And we believed we were prostitutes.
“We didn’t realise we were victims of child sexual exploitation because we had been so brainwashed. It breaks my heart
to think of another girl going through what I did.
“That’s why we need a proper inquiry into child sexual exploitation in Telford.”

Forget propping your eyelids up with matches, here's a MUCH better way to sneakily sleep in class

There are some things in life that truly bond us all together as human beings.
For example: It's a post-lunch lesson, you're feeling a little drowsy, letting your head inch down to the desk, resting your eyes while algebra goes on around you... sometimes, a little shut-eye is the only solution.
Online video star Zach King has found a truly impressive way of getting a little beauty sleep during school hours.
Turns out the secret is just commissioning a life-size poster board portrait of oneself, looking incredibly alert and just a little academic, wearing the exact clothes you'll be sporting to school that day.
Zach King/Youtube Everything's perfectly normal, nothing to see here, Teacher.
This piece of prank-shielding art will provide a cover for your zzz's, fooling teacher and keeping you blissfully unaware of how quadratic equations exist (also why? WHY?).
Although it looks very life-like upon first glance, as the camera travels round behind the cardboard picture, we see what cheeky young Zach is really up to - and it isn't learning.
Clue: it's a lot more like this...
Adorable, but that duckling could really do with learning some stealth techniques from Zach, stat.
This delightful class prank is just one example of Zach's wide repertoire as a video genius.
In other examples of his work, he's seen learning to fly with cardboard wings, putting trousers on without using his hands and even performing actual magic tricks.
Zach King/Instagram "It's an ILLUSION." Also, excellent video-editing skillz.
His deft hand with video-editing means that some of his videos - like the one where he's a lifeguard simultaneously snacking and saving people in peril - look like pure sorcery.
It's no surprise that he's got a huge online following, with fans appreciating his work across YouTube , Instagram and Vine .
His work is full of imagination and cute little details.
Zach King/Instagram He might look chilled out here, but Zach is actually a very attentive - and effective - lifeguard
There's one more little reason for his popularity, as explored by the commenters of a Reddit thread on this video:
Gottagettagoat: He handsome.
Knacker_Nora: Kind of iStock handsome.
BUBBA_BOY: The kind of guy that comes with the picture frames.
Well, yes, there's that too.
We've got a feeling Zach's unlikely to get detention.
Not even for sporting this 'tash:

The British tourist died while visiting Torremolinos in the Costa del Sol
A British holidaymaker has died in Spain after collapsing while trying to climb onto a giant inflatable.
The water attraction was floating near the popular beach of El Bajondillo in the Costa del Sol tourist resort of Torremolinos.
Horrified onlookers saw the 77-year-old having difficulty breathing after struggling to get on to the inflatable .
The operator of the inflatable managed to give him first aid and get him back to shore.
But paramedics were unable to resuscitate him after arriving at the beach and the man was pronounced dead at the scene at around 11.45am yesterday.
The incident happened at 11.20am this morning and is the 15th death on Malaga's beaches this summer.
Yesterday, a 52-year-old French woman died on Los Álamos beach, also in Torremolinos, after suffering an incident in the water.
And on Tuesday, a 70-year-old German tourist died in Torrox.
A post-mortem is being carried out to determine the Brisith man's cause of death. It is believed he suffered a stroke.

Kim and Kourtney Kardashian throw Khloe a pampering day after she files for divorce for second time

Khloe Kardashian is having a tough time lately, but her sisters are refusing to let her get down about it.
The reality star filed for divorce for a second time earlier this year from Lamar Odom, and has been unlucky in love ever since.
In a teaser for the upcoming episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Kim and Kourtney Kardashian come together to plan a surprise for their sister.
The pair throw a day of sisterly bonding and pampering in a bid to help Khloe forget about her relationship woes.
E! Kim and Kourtney surprised Khloe
E! They wanted to try and make her feel better
Kim explained: "Kourtney and I want to do something for Khloe, something super chill at the house, just like a little pampering Khloe moment so that she feels loved."
When she stumbled upon the surprise, Khloe gushed: "When you have people that you know you can depend on, even though you're going through s**t, you just know everything is going to be OK eventually."
E! Lamar Odom's struggles are bringing her down
Khloe and and troubled Lamar married back in 2009, just one month after meeting. She filed for divorce four years later in December 2013, but due to a backlog in the court system, it was never made official.
When Lamar was hospitalised last year, Khloe withdrew from divorce proceedings and focused on her estranged husband's health. When he eventually returned to form, Khloe refiled the papers - citing irreconcilable differences - in May.

Getty Lamar is still battling his demons
The 36-year-old, who ended up in hospital following a near-fatal overdose last October, was seen surrounding by a gaggle of scantily-clad women as he partied at a strip club in New York in the early hours of Wednesday morning, sparking a fear he's returned to his wild lifestyle.
Khloe's relationship with her ex might not be going particularly well, but that hasn't stopped her looking better than ever .
She was spotted showing off her incredible booty yesterday after another visit to her local gym.

Antonio says he "got slightly emotional" after realising a childhood dream by being named in the national team ahead of World Cup qualifying

Michail Antonio "overwhelmed and emotional" after shock inclusion in Sam Allardyce's England squad
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Michail Antonio admitted he was “overwhelmed and emotional” after his shock England call-up.
Antonio, 26, began his career at non-league Tooting and Mitcham and now finds himself as the surprise name in Sam Allardyce’s first England squad for the World Cup qualifier in Slovakia next Sunday, September 4.
West Ham midfielder Antonio is the only new name in the 23 man party but Allardyce did spring some big calls by axing Ross Barkley and Jack Wilshere while he recalled Theo Walcott, Phil Jagielka and fit-again Luke Shaw.
Intriguingly, Wayne Rooney was listed as one of the midfielders even though Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho insists that he will no longer pick him in that position.
England boss Allardyce named the squad after watching on TV from St George’s Park as Antonio score in West Ham’s defeat at Manchester City.
Antonio, who has now scored eight headers since joining West Ham last summer which is the most in the Premier League, said: “I’m overwhelmed. I got slightly emotional when I found out.
Action Images via Reuters Antonio rises to score for West Ham in the loss to Manchester City on Sunday
“It’s just one of those things that I’ve always dreamt of playing for England as a kid, so now for it to happen after I’ve worked my way from non-league to where I am now, I am just so happy. I don’t even know what to say – words can’t explain how happy I am!
“I just give my all every time I go on the field, so for me to called-up by England, I don’t know what to say! All I can do is go out there on the international stage and show there is a reason why the gaffer has called me up.
“I turned down an approach from Jamaica in March and for this to happen so quickly, I’m buzzing! I just want to keep my feet on the floor. In my first season in the Premier League, even though I had good stats, the England manager would have had to take a risk on me.
“It looks like the gaffer now believes that I’ve done enough to be in there, so hopefully I can prove him right.”
Allardyce added: “This is another lad with a great journey – it’s a fantastic journey that he’s been on, from non-league to now an international call-up. He scored nine goals in his first season and he’s a terrific athlete, a good crosser and a goal-scorer.
“I’m looking forward to him coming, and looking forward to meeting everybody. Hopefully we will have a good few days’ preparation and get to know each other on the basis of trying to go and win in Slovakia.”
Gareth Copley Soon after the match the Londoner was named in his first England squad
Barkley and Wilshere have been held up as the future of England’s midfield but caused much debate in the summer as Roy Hodgson took the Everton midfielder to the Euros but did not play him and the Arsenal man was a controversial inclusion as he missed most of last season.
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain also missed out despite starting in Arsenal’s first team and will be disappointed.
Everton defender Jagielka was a surprise omission from the Euros after being a squad regular throughout qualifying while Shaw is back after his horrific double leg break last September.
There was a call-up for Danny Drinkwater but - Antonio aside - no real shock inclusions as Allardyce clearly feels the similar group can get England to the World Cup even if two of the most skilful midfielders will have to fight for their international futures.

Alison Phillips: Why it's cash over class for Lady Tina Green, sorry I mean Greed
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
In the window of my local BHS on Sunday the ladies had placed a mannequin in a wedding dress to represent a member of staff who’d worked there 20 years, was just married… and jobless.
There were Christmas trees erected to make up for the festive display that won’t be there this December. Or ever again. Because the new bride’s future and the future of most of the staff in Romford BHS and 11,000 nationwide has been destroyed. And not just destroyed, needlessly destroyed. By greed.
Which brings me neatly to this woman… Tina Greed. Sorry, I mean Green.
For while billionaire Sir Philip has been in the spotlight for his role in the collapse of BHS it is actually his wife who should be hanging her peroxide head in shame.
The heartbreaking display at BHS Romford
Getty Lady Green with her husband Philip
Since 2004, Lady Greed has been the legal owner of her husband’s major shop investments. In 2005 alone she received a dividend of £1.2billion.
Obviously it’s all a massive (entirely legal) tax dodge with Lady Greed enjoying non dom status in Monaco. But she who lives by the scam must die by the scam.
And if she’s enjoyed the benefits of the BHS bonanza she must also share the public opprobrium following its closure.
To misquote Dolly Parton, it costs a lot of money to look that cheap. And I’m sure Lady Greed has needed every penny of her BHS bonanza to keep her in nips, tucks, toy dogs and too-tight leather trousers.
With the complexion of one of BHS’s cheaper handbags and a brassiness outshining its lighting department, Lady Greed is a living, breathing embodiment of cash over class.
And £5billion of the former can never outweigh a complete dearth of the latter.
Getty Lady Tina Green 'ain't no lady'
Still, in 2006 our discredited honours system made her a Lady while her husband arose (on his stack heels) to become a Sir. But to borrow that great movie quote: “She ain’t no lady”.
How could she be?
What kind of Lady would have allowed the best part of £400million pounds to be taken out of BHS – millions of them in the last few months – before selling it to inexperienced, incompetent wide boy Dominic Chappell for £1?
What kind of Lady would lay back on her £100million superyacht thinking of Monaco while her husband shafted 11,000 dedicated BHS workers?
What kind of Lady would collude with her husband’s reluctance to sort out recompense for the 20,000 who face losing their BHS pension?
The Greens are holed up on their four storey yacht feigning indifference to public fury. But a woman like Lady Greed who’s spent her life wanting to be adored must now be panicking.
Friends (or the closest thing these kind of folk have to friends) have deserted them. Colleagues are sidestepping their “unacceptable face of capitalism” tag.
Getty Sad workers hug outside the BHS Store
Even the usually myopic Monaco authorities are looking into Tina’s carryings-on and she could be stripped of her residency.
For too long, Lady Greed has chosen to pull down her Ray-Bans against the glare of ugliness around her. And I’m not talking about her husband’s gut. I’m talking about her family’s greed.
She can hide her eyes no longer. Because the public revulsion at what has gone on will not fade. Us Brits have long memories of bad behaviour.
Apparently the first time Tina Green met Philip she thought him “dreadful”.
But she changed her mind and ended up several billions richer.
I wonder if now she thinks she may have had it right the first time.

Liverpool flop Mario Balotelli urged to join Palermo by Italian club's sporting director
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

Mario Balotelli has been urged to quit Liverpool and relaunch his career with Palermo.
The Italian club have made an offer to the 26-year-old, rivalling the proposals from French club Nice and Swiss outfit FC Sion.
Balotelli, born in Palermo, has just a year left on his contract at Anfield but is examining his options after being told to find a new club by Jurgen Klopp.
Liverpool will have to subsidise his £90,000-a-week wages or persuade him to take a pay cut to move to the Sicilian capital.

But Palermo sporting director Daniele Faggiano believes his club would be the “right place” for Balotelli to rediscover his joy for the game.
Faggiano said: “We think that Palermo could be just the right place for him to relaunch his career.
“We would welcome him like a great champion, who with the talent he has got could get back into the national team.
“The only obstacle is his salary, but his desire could shift the balance in Palermo’s favour. We’re waiting for his decision.”

Horrified mum finds 'deadly' spider in bunch of bananas she bought from Lidl

Wildlife workers were shocked when they saw the size of the spider
A mum was horrified to discover a potentially deadly spider nestled in a bunch of bananas she bought from a Lidl supermarket.
The arachnid was dead when it was found, but it was accompanied by smaller spiders emerging from an egg sack.
It’s now been sent off for testing amid concerns it could be a Brazilian wandering spider - known for being aggressive and venomous.
After being met with the creepy crawly, the woman called the Nuneaton and Warwickshire Wildlife Sanctuary and Geoff Grewcock, manager of the charity, was shocked when he arrived to see the size of the spider.
Coventry Telegraph Luckily, the arachnid was dead when it was found
He said: “I don’t like spiders but I go along because something needs to be done.
“I get called out a lot for spiders, especially black widows in packets of grapes, and in a lot of cases some of them are very small so I was shocked when she pulled out this one.
“She was a bit puzzled, she opened the bananas in the bag and the spider fell out onto the floor.
“It’s all scrunched up and it’s just a bit bigger than a 50p but if it was alive and opened up I think it would be double the size.”
After examining the spider, Mr Grewcock suspected that it was a wandering spider which had travelled from Colombia with the bunch of bananas.
He has now sent off photos of the spider and the egg sack for the species to be verified, reports the Coventry Telegraph.
The spiders are known for building nests in bunches of bananas.
Mr Grewcock added: “There were some young things in there too and they were put in the freezer to kill them, if it’s a wandering spider then they would be poisonous.
“If you have a dangerous spider in your house you want it out of there straight away.
“If you find anything like that put it straight in the freezer, you cannot have these things running around in your house, you cannot mess about, you’ve got to put that danger out of your house.”
Lidl said the matter will be fully investigated by its quality assurance team
The Lidl store in Queens Road, where the bananas were bought, has been contacted about the incident and the woman is now having her house fumigated.
A spokeswoman for Lidl said: “We have thorough procedures in place to ensure that the fresh fruit and vegetables available in our stores are of the highest possible quality for our customers.
“We are therefore very sorry to hear that these standards were not met on this occasion. The matter will be fully investigated by our quality assurance team.”
Mr Grewcock has advice for shoppers who may be worried about finding creatures like this in their food.
He said: “It’s just bad luck really but when you are buying food really examine it, if it’s in a container have a really good look before you buy it.
“It’s very common, last year I had seven black widows in grapes, it’s scary sometimes.”

Apple is planning to release new Macs after its long-anticipated iPhone 7 launch on September 7

iPhone 7 launch may not be Apple's only event this autumn - new Macs expected before the end of the year
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

Mac fans hoping for new announcements as part of Apple's September 7 event will be left disappointed, as new laptops and desktops won't be revealed until at least October, according to reports.
The Mac range has not been updated, with the exception of the refreshed 12-inch MacBook, since last year.
New models will include a slimmed-down MacBook Pro, iMacs featuring changeable graphics chips, and MacBook Air computers with USB-C ports, Bloomberg has reported.
Rex An Apple Mac computer
The MacBook Pro is alleged to sport a digital function key display, known as the "Dynamic Function Row" for quickly completing basic tasks - a bit like the Control Centre function in iOS .
The company is planning to partner with rival LG to create a new monitor with a high-resolution 5K display, people close to the matter said.
October is likely to be the earliest date the new models will go on sale.
REUTERS/Kimberly White Apple Inc.'s iMac
Apple is also said to be working on enterprise software to make the iPad a more attractive device for the business market, including improvements to the Apple Pencil and smoother zooming.
Earlier this week Apple sent out media invitations for an event on Wednesday September 7, where it is widely expected to unveil its next flagship handset - the iPhone 7 .
The event is taking place at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco on Wednesday, September 7, at 10am local time, (6pm BST).
Rumours have been swirling about the iPhone 7 for many months, with numerous rumours and leaked photos adding fuel to the frenzy.
The most persistent (and controversial) rumour is that Apple is going to get rid of the headphone socket .
This means you will either have to buy a pair of headphones that use a Lightning cable, get an adapter, or use Bluetooth headphones.
There is some suggestion that the iPhone 7 will be waterproof . Smartphone rivals like Samsung already make waterproof phones - and this is a big selling point for people prone to clumsiness.
Apple has improved the water-resistance of its devices in recent years, but it yet to release a fully waterproof phone.

Jihadists are now using SNAPCHAT to spread propaganda after being banned from Facebook and Twitter

Snapchat represents a break away from that trend as it is a more accessible app overwhelmingly used by teenagers
Jihadists are now using Snapchat to spread propaganda after being banned from Twitter and Facebook.
The mobile app, which is used by Western schoolchildren to send selfies, is the latest method Al-Qaeda-linked jihadists in Syria are using to document their life in the warzone.
Accounts regularly post images of heavy artillery and AK47's, as well as the more banal aspects of life inside the war-ravaged country such as their dinner.
Pictures show militants sitting on the floor while feasting on bread, hummus, falafel and vegetables.

Heavy artillery on display
One militant has posted footage of the aftermath of artillery rounds and airstrikes and regularly flaunts his armoury of machine guns and heavy artillery.
Another of the accounts, operated by a member of the hardline jihadist group Ahrar Al-Sham has regularly posted videos of pro-Al-Qaeda cleric Abdallah Muhammad Al-Muhaysini. One see's the preacher sitting in the city of Aleppo, a key battle ground in the country's civil war, just minutes away from the frontline.
Many of the Snapchats are sent from the region of Idlib, the heartland of the Syrian opposition where may jihadists have been able to find some refuge.
However, there are suggestions that Snapchat could prove a weakness for a groups, earlier this month one militant indicated at a new military operation in the Syrian province of Hama, a leak which could potentially have compromised the military operation.

Last week Twitter claimed to have closed 360,000 ISIS linked accounts and Facebook attempted to close down pages used by jihadists for recruitment and even to sell weapons.
With their social media accounts being shut down, fighters have switched to communicating via more advanced and encrypted applications such as WhatsApp and Telegram.
However Snapchat represents a break away from that trend as it is a more accessible app overwhelmingly used by teenagers.
One account bears the name Harithah, named after a notorious military commander who was a companion of the profit Mohammed, whilst another is named after Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab, the spiritual founder of Saudi Arabia's notoriously strict brand of Islam.

This adorable kid who made just one friend at his first school has gone viral after revealing his excitement for starting at a new one.
While most youngsters dread the first day back after summer, Kevin tells the camera he can’t wait to go into fourth grade in Austin, Texas.
He continues breathlessly: “After that I'm going to 5th grade and I'm going to college...or high school I don't know or pre school.”
The FOX 7 reporter then asks if Kevin’s looking forward to seeing his friends and he adorably replies: “I just made one friend at the first school I was at.
Fox 7 Austin Kevin says he is looking forward to maths and science the most because he wants to invent things
“I’m hoping I can make more friends than just one.”
The youngster then revealed that he is most looking forward to maths and science because he wants to be a “creator inventing stuff”.
But suddenly he launches into a hilarious rant against his mother who has forbidden him from walking to school and riding his bicycle without a helmet.
Kevin shouts into the microphone: "Also my mum thinks I'm a baby so I can't walk to school sometimes and also she thinks I need protective gear when I need to ride a bike.
