Chelsea close in on Inter midfielder Marcelo Brozovic? Transfer news and gossip from Tuesday's papers

They're really Inter him: Chelsea have been linked with a £25m move
Clubs across the country are charging up their mobile phones and checking that the fax machine has plenty of paper in it, as transfer deadline day is oh-so close.
Only hours remain of the summer transfer window, meaning that teams only have until Wednesday evening to sign up some last-minute talent or get rid of players that are surplus to requirements.
There's sure to be plenty of last minute wheeling and deal in the Premier League and across Europe, so it's worth getting in an early night before Wednesday's fun and games begin.
But before all that there's plenty of gossip and rumours to be heard.
Here is a round-up of the best from Tuesday's papers...

Amber Rose had admitted she has no idea how many men she has slept with.
The 32-year-old model - who previously dated Kanye West and was married to Wiz Khalifa - insists she has no interest in keeping count of her number of sexual partners.
Speaking on The Amber Rose Show, she explained: "I'm 32-years-old – I've been around the block a few times. I'm not going to sit there and count."
Amber also claimed that men are praised for having mistresses while women are slammed for cheating.
She said: "We [women] are smart enough to not let the men find out, I feel like guys get so sloppy. Women have an intuition, if he lies we know… Sometimes we're in denial, like, 'He wouldn't do that to me,' but at the same time we like, 'B**ch, I know he did that.'"

Meanwhile, Amber recently admitted she can't get a date because men are "intimidated" by her.
The star - who has three-year-old Sebastian with her former husband Wiz - says she is single because most guys are "scared" of her.
She said: "I can't get a date for nothing, all these guys are so scared of me, it's ridiculous. My team says I'm intimidating which makes it very difficult. I've always just been Amber from Philly. I pride myself on staying that person, I've never let the money and the fame change me.
"I never wanted fame. It just happened so I decided to become an entrepreneur; to dip and dab my hands in everything to figure out what I liked along the way because I knew I couldn't go back and be a regular girl in Philly, it was too late."

She added: "I'm not a convenient girl. I can't just fly out whenever they want me to fly out. I can't just go on vacation whenever they want to go. I have employees and a son. I have a lot on my plate. They are welcome to come along for the ride but I can't just come on every call.
"They have to come along for my ride, I can't come along for theirs. I really don't need a man for anything. I have a house, my own cars and own money. I think some men want a girl they can semi take care of where the girl has her own little job. It's not like that for me. Anything a man can get me, I can get for myself."

Women trying to emulate the amazing eyebrows of catwalk star Cara Delevingne or actress Keira Knightley are going under the knife to get the "power brows" they are after.
Brits clinics are reporting a fivefold increase in bookings for eyebrow procedures, whilst experts expect last year’s £15m spent on eyebrow surgery to double when 2016’s figures are released.
The British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons say they see no signs of the trend slowing down.
Reza Nassab from BAAPS said: “Eyebrows have always been in fashion and currently there is a popular trend for fuller brows.
Arthur Edwards/The Sun/PA The Duchess of Cambridge is quickly becoming a style icon to millions around the globe
“Previously there was a trend for thin sculpted eyebrows and many people may have plucked their brows to keep up with this trend.
“The fuller eyebrow is the current trend and this is often due to celebrities such as Cara Delevingne.”
Delevingne’s famous brows are so popular that they even have their own Twitter account boasting more than 6,000 followers.

Eyebrow fashion is also close to The Duchess of Cambridge’s heart, the royal has sported many different brow styles over the years switching between the high arched and power brow look.
The delicate procedures first became popular amongst women who permanently damaged hair follicles after years over-plucking. But now it seems the thicker power brows are here to stay.

Eyebrow restoration is a procedure where hair is harvested from the back or side of the head and implanted into the eyebrow area.
Surgery is usually completed in one day with prices starting from £1,500.

Dr Micheal May, one of the world’s leading hair surgeons from The Wimpole Clinic said: “An eyebrow transplant is a very personal decision.
"With a reputable surgeon, you’ll be able to get eyebrows that are well shaped, even, thick and glossy. It can certainly give a far more youthful appearance."
Rex Cara Delevingne is famed for her eyebrows
Famed for treating A list celebrities and royalty from around the world The Wimpole Clinic reported a 500 per cent increase in the number of eyebrow procedures they have carried out in the past two years.
There has also been a rise in the number of men booking eyebrow surgery following sporting injuries or alopecia.
Dr May added: “We have a lot of men who have damaged their brows playing rugby in the scrum.
FilmMagic Women are trying to follow Keira Knightley with her eyebrows
"The roots are often totally damaged due to injury. We are able to restore these roots by harvesting hair from the head.
“Individuals suffering alopecia can have no eyebrows at all.
"Such scenarios present even greater challenges as hair all over the body is in short supply so grafts for the eyebrows have to be harvested from other areas such as underarms.”

Jeremy McConnell has his finger sucked by mystery woman during racy night out

He's embroiled in baby drama after denying he's the father of Stephanie Davis ' unborn child.
But that certainly doesn't seem to be playing on Jeremy McConnell 's mind as he got VERY friendly with a mystery blonde woman over the weekend.
The Irish model shared a lewd video on Snapchat which sees the pretty woman provocatively suck on his finger after he shoves it in her mouth.
Becoming shy after the event, the unidentified female turns her head away from the camera.

But Jeremy seems very pleased with himself as he laughs hysterically into the camera after turning it on himself.
It seems he may have regretted sharing such an intimate moment though as only hours later he appeared to delete the video.

Snapchat She appears to be embarrassed now
Jeremy has been enjoying the party lifestyle since he left the Celebrity Big Brother house in January - where he met his former girlfriend and apparent baby mother Steph.
He hasn't been too kind about his pregnant ex though, denying he is the father of her unborn son following their split in May.
Only last week he labelled Stephanie a "freak" following her debut as a panelist on Loose Women.
When the Loose Women Twitter account tagged him in a tweet with a quote from Stephanie, he didn't appear to be very impressed.
Snapchat Jezza looks like he really enjoyed that

The tweet read: "Thanks to @bbuk for giving us a baby doll to look after! My ex @JezzaMcConnell was really good and I thought awww that's what I wanted!"
Jeremy simply replied: "@loosewomen @bbuk freaks"
The tweet was later deleted.

Dyslexic singer who was kicked out of several bands because he can't read wins hearts on X Factor

Finally, the UK's biggest singing competition is back on our screens and episode one looks to be getting off to a great start.
The new look show will open with a trip down memory lane as past winners and competitors flash across the screen giving inspiration to this series' crop of talent, but it won't be long before viewers will be reaching for the tissues.
Cabinet maker James Wilson has the look of a rock star, but led a very different lifestyle to that of his idols.
The 34-year-old joiner from Leeds says that he lives in a caravan and has a severe case of dyslexia.
Syco/Thames/Dymond James Wilson
He said he finds it hard to remember lyrics and struggles to read because of his speed of learning.
James said: "I've joined a few bands, but they've dropped me because of my speed of learning. I'm 34 now and I just thought I'd give it a blast."
James added: "It's quite difficult to read which I more or less can't do. I went for my driving test and I couldn't read whether I'd failed or passed, I had to ask a random person on the street."

The joiner, who said James Arthur inspired him to give it a go, sang Ray LaMontagne's Joleen. His audition was not the smoothest and Simon even stopped him early. Find out on Saturday what his fate was.
Viewers will also see Christian Burrows, who said he wants to make music professionally. His house is apparently cramped with siblings so he has small room under the stairs in the family's terraced home.
If he makes it as a big star, buying a family home that's big enough for everyone will be the first thing he'll do.

Simon asked him to sing another song, so Christian performed a track that he penned for his brother who died when he was young.
The tearjerker sent chills down spines, and Simon said it was very brave of him to sing, but was it enough to impressive the judges?

Cameras on board the International Space Station have captured stunning views of all three hurricanes currently spinning over the Earth's oceans.
The timelapse footage shows Hurricanes Lester and Madeline in the Pacific Ocean and Hurricane Gaston in the Atlantic, all appearing as giant swirls of cloud.
Lester and Madeline are both headed for Hawaii, with Madeline expected to make a close pass on the south side of the islands over the next couple of days.
Lester is closely following Madeline and will pass the main Hawaiian Islands between Saturday and Monday. Currently a strong category 4 storm, it has wind speeds of 130mph.
NASA International Space Station orbits over three hurricanes
Meanwhile, Gaston is moving east in the Atlantic toward the Azores, and is set to hit Britain by September 3 , generating winds of 70mph.
"Hurricane Gaston is the latest hurricane to develop in the Atlantic and has reached its peak with gusts up to 85 to 90mph," said independent weather forecast provider MeteoGroup.
"This system is expected to slowly weaken and track north-westwards."

Ryanair warns Facebook users over '35th anniversary' scam offering free air tickets

Eagle-eyed users were quick to spot that the image had a few discrepancies
Facebook users have been warned by Ryanair over an online scam offering two free tickets for the company's 35th anniversary.
In a post across its social media accounts, the airline pointed out that a supposed 'offer' was not all it seemed.
The Facebook link is posted with an image of a fake boarding pass, with the logo of Ryanair included.
Eagle-eyed users were quick to spot that the image had a few discrepancies, reports the Irish Mirror.
The 'ticket' had a Qantas flight number and the seat number - 4K - would put the customer "on the wing" of a Ryanair jet, as one person pointed out.
Getty The 'ticket' had a Qantas flight number and the seat number
There also appears to be frequent flyer details on the picture.
One Facebook user said: "I did not know that Ryanair changed the IATA code to QF and also joined OneWorld. Good to know!"
Another said: "So seat K would be on the wing then????"
Another added: "Plus this wasn't your 35th anniversary but your 31st!"
The firm said in its posts: "Please be aware of an online scam offering free Ryanair tickets. This is not an official promotion."
Irish Mirror/Ryan Air Ryanair warns social media users of the Facebook scam
It follows a similar scam that affected rival airline Aer Lingus earlier this month.
Aer Lingus posted about a supposed offer on August 10 and said: "We're aware of an online scam offering free Aer Lingus tickets.
"This is NOT an official Aer Lingus promotion.
Irish Mirror/Ryan Air The Facebook link is posted with an image of a fake boarding pass
"For your own information security, please don't click on any posts in your Newsfeed similar to this one."
In a similar style to the Ryanair image, that image supposedly two free tickets for Aer Lingus' '80th anniversary'.
The previous link had led to a questionnaire that asks users to share it with 15 of their mates before texting a number for €2 to claim the flights.
Ray Shah posted about the scam earlier this month and said: "To all those who were gullible enough to have shared this or think a company is going to give away a car... use a bit of cop on."

Mourinho reportedly lost his rag with the builders at Carrington
Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho reportedly nicked a builder's shovel as part of a training ground spat.
The Special One is alleged to have grown increasingly frustrated by the conduct of builders at the club's Aon Training Complex at Carrington.
According to the Sun on Sunday , Mourinho was left angered when workmen continually used training cones and flagpoles to mark their work site.
The Portuguese, who has had a string of heated encounters throughout his career, reportedly stormed off with a spade in his hand claiming: "If you take things of mine, I will take things of yours!"
A source allegedly said: “The installation is causing friction for Jose because of the amount of people and mess. He marched on to the building site and ordered them to stop ‘taking my stuff’.”

The contractors working on the site are said to be "furious" with Mourinho.
Meanwhile, Mourinho was in a much better mood after his United side made it three wins out of three with victory at Hull.

Leicestershire Police's marked Land Rover was stripped of its bonnet and doors
Police chiefs who warned Land Rover owners about a spate of thefts were left red-faced - when their own 4x4 was stripped bare by crooks.
To make matters worse for Leicestershire Police , the brazen crime happened outside one of their own stations.
The £50,000 Land Rover Defender - painted in police markings - was stripped of its bonnet and all four doors by the thieves.
Criminals have been targeting the iconic 4x4s for parts to sell online since they went out of production in January.
Officers had recently warned locals in Market Bosworth about the spate of UK-wide thefts.
Google Red-faced cops had parked the Land Rover outside Market Bosworth police station
So residents were stunned to spot the force’s Defender minus its doors and bonnet outside the town’s police station last week.
Red-faced bosses ordered the 65-plate vehicle - on loan from a local dealership - to be taken away onto a tow-truck.
Emma Burton, who lives in nearby Newbold Verdon, Leics, was driving to work when she spotted the Defender.
She said: “I saw the back first and there was a police officer stood with it and I thought the back door was open.
“But then when I got closer I realised it was missing completely along with all the other doors and bonnet.
“The officer seemed a bit embarrassed. It was literally parked up on the road outside the police station.
“It is quite a problem around here. There was one stolen from a nearby village and found a few days later in a yard.
“Someone else had their old Defender stripped completely. People sell them for parts because there is a big demand.
“Some people think the police don’t take it seriously when they report their Land Rover has been stripped.
“Hopefully they will now it has happened to their own 4x4,” added Emma, 23.
The Defender was loaned to Leicestershire Police by Sturgess Land Rover last summer to help tackle rural crime.
Local beat officer PC Rob Cross said at the time he hoped the vehicle would show residents that police take it “seriously”.

Joey Essex looked absolutely disgusted on Celebs Go Dating this evening.
The TOWIE hunk had been excited after meeting a pretty blonde at a networking event and was looking forward to getting to know her better.
But after taking her out for a few drinks at the Sugar Hut, his opinion of Flo quickly changed when she developed what can only be described as a fit of burps.
After bizarrely deciding to eat a lemon, the petite stunner couldn't control her gas.
Joey looked disgusted with his date
While at first Joey tried to laugh off her little accident, he wasn't sure how to react when it then appeared as though she wasn't going to stop burping.
He said: "Are you okay? Do you want me to take you to the toilet?"
Those tuning into the E4 show found the scenes hilarious and were quick to take to Twitter afterwards.
"Omg this girl dating Joey Essex on #CelebsGoDating just had the audacity to burp that many times in front of him! #Mortified," wrote one viewer.
Another then posted: "I am actually in tears just over the burp #CelebsGoDating."
Moments later, a different fan commented: "#CelebsGoDating nah im done im going on a date with @JoeyEssex_ and u sit there and burp full on 5 times in his face."
Flo turned away from Joey as her burping fit worsened
After the date, Joey made it clear that he no longer saw a future between him and Flo.
"Sometimes, you can really fancy a girl and think 'Wow I've found the girl of my dreams', but then the next minute you're like oh no," he quipped.

Kim Kardashian is desperate to get Adele over for dinner

Adele isn't keen to keep up with the Kardshian's
She’s the most in-demand star of the year – even the American Super Bowl can’t get its hands on Adele – but others are getting knocked back too.
American TV sources tell me the Kardashians are desperate to get Adele over for dinner – with family matriarch Kris Jenner keen to get the whole clan together, including Kim and Kanye, for a grand affair.
Adele is known to be friendly with some of the family, with Kendall one of her VIP guests at a recent gig in Los Angeles.
But the invite seemed to lose its appeal when it emerged they hoped the dinner party would appear on their smash hit reality show .
Getty Kim Kardashian West is desperate for Adele to come over for dinner
The Rolling in the Deep star has previously admitted to being a huge fan of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, revealing that she watched countless reruns while pregnant with her son Angelo.
But clearly Adele, who is famously low key, isn’t tempted to become the star of the show herself.
A TV source claimed: “Kendall has been pushing for her to come to dinner as she is smitten by her. She loves her talent and thinks she is a really funny woman.
“And now the family are on board, Kris feels it would be amazing for Kim and Kanye to give Adele an LA welcome and insiders’ knowledge after she bought a place here.

“Of course Kris, as executive producer on the E! series, knows that getting the dinner on TV would be viewing gold.
“But at this stage, Adele is not sold on that idea. She hasn’t ruled out a dinner another time – it’s just a reality show isn’t for her.”
This all comes midway through the singer’s US tour – she is currently on a short break.
The tour continues until November 21, and she recently revealed she plans to spend Christmas in LA after buying a £7million home in a gated Beverly Hills community.
Can’t be bad.

All hell is about to break loose on Emmerdale as Nicola's secret kiss with Dan is exposed
All hell is about to break loose on Emmerdale this week as Nicola's secret kiss with Dan is exposed.
The pair finally caved into the sexual chemistry between them last week by locking lips - after enjoying one too many glasses of wine we might add!
Of course, they both regretted it afterwards and have been desperate to keep their embrace under wraps.
Unfortunately though, her stepson Elliott isn't exactly on the same wavelength and blurts everything out in the middle of the Woolpack.
Kerry attacks Nicola after learning the truth
Unsurprisingly, Dan's girlfriend is beyond furious and dumps him there and then in the pub.
But he's desperate to make things right again and so in a bid to clear his name, Dan reveals that it was actually Nicola who came onto him.
Kerry is livid and dumps her boyfriend Dan
Upon hearing this, Kerry sees red and storms over to Nicola's house where she attacks her.
But after slapping her around the face, she takes Nicola's disability into consideration and manages to restrain herself.
Dan and Nicola locked lips after one too many glasses of wine
When Kerry leaves, Nicola frantically tries to explain herself to husband Jimmy, claiming she has felt more like his patient than his wife as of late.
However, he tells her the marriage is over.
Could Jimmy change his mind? And will Kerry be taking her anger out on anyone else?

Quadruple amputee Alex Lewis has revealed his dreams of taking part in the Tokyo 2020 Paralympics ahead of his difficult kayak challenge.
The dad-of-one is set to step into the kayak and row 250 miles across the freezing waters of Greenland which will take him eight days.
Three years after he lost half his face and both sets of limbs to a severe and rare A-streptococcal infection , he is taking on the task and will be joining the charity Pilgrim Bandits to raise money for military personnel who have lost limbs at war.
"We scoured the globe to try and find kayakers with similar conditions," Alex said on This Morning of being the first ever quadruple amputee to take on the daunting trek.
"We are breaking ground and making it a possibility for any amputees, it is possible now [to kayak]."
ITV Alex Lewis lost all four limbs and half his face to a strep-A infection
Now Alex wants to take on the kayaking challenge
Channel 4 Alex lost half his face to the bacterial infection
Alex, 35, who was joined by his adorable son Sam, said he has never let his condition hold him back and his zest for life means he has his sights set on Paralympic gold for golfing.
Explaining that he still needs to raise £250,000 for two fully functional knee and ankle joints, he said: "If I could play golf in the Paralympics in four years time, that would be the ultimate goal."
ITV Sam with his dad
Channel 4 Alex thought he can a common cold before contracting strep A
Channel 4 Channel 4 aired the dad's documentary earlier this year, The Extraordinary Case of Alex Lewis
A pair of arms have been created especially for Alex to have the ability to row in the kayak and he has been putting a lot of hard work into training for the expedition.
His team have worked on a special life jacket that will keep him buoyant were he to fall in the water and he has been in the water properly just six times ahead of the challenge next week.
He joked that his wife Lucy was "made up" he would be leaving for 10 days: "Lucy is made up it's 10 days of peace and quiet without me! I am out there with my best mate Chris who is joining me on the trip."

It's not just what you say, it's how you say it - and dogs understand both

Dogs can understand what you say and interpret your tone, scientists claim
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Scientists have found evidence to support what many dog owners have long believed: man's best friend really does understand some of what we are saying.
Researchers in Hungary scanned the brains of dogs as they were listening to their trainer speaking to determine which parts of the brain they were using.
They found that dogs processed words with the left hemisphere, while intonation was processed with the right hemisphere - just like humans.
The dogs only registered that they were being praised if the words and intonation were positive. Meaningless words spoken in an encouraging voice, or meaningful words in a neutral tone, did not have the same effect.
www.courthousedogs.org
"Dog brains care about both what we say and how we say it," said lead researcher Attila Andics, a neuroscientist at Eotvos Lorand University in Budapest. "Praise can work as a reward only if both word meaning and intonation match."
Mr Andics said the findings suggest that the mental ability to process language evolved earlier than previously believed and that what sets humans apart from other species is the invention of words.
"The neural capacities to process words that were thought by many to be uniquely human are actually shared with other species," he said. "This suggests that the big change that made humans able to start using words was not a big change in neural capacity."

While other species probably also have the mental ability to understand language like dogs, their lack of interest in human speech makes it difficult to test, said Mr Andics.
Dogs have socialised with humans for thousands of years, meaning they are more attentive to what people say to them and how.
The study was published in the journal Science.
Mr Andics said the dogs involved in the study were awake, unrestrained and happy during the tests. "They participated voluntarily," he added.

World's worst driver? Motorist reverses into two cars sending debris flying while attempting basic parking manoeuvre

This is the moment that a motorist managed to hit two cars while manoeuvring out of a space – as another driver on the street sensibly backed away slowly from the situation.
The incident was caught on a CCTV camera filming a quiet street lined with cars on both sides.
It starts with the driver of a dark grey vehicle attempting a parking manoeuvre with more than enough space to clear the turn.
But as a black SUV waits for the driver to speed off the silver car suddenly reverses at speed into a vehicle parked behind.
YouTube / Skyblue Sims The car appears to be attempting a basic parking manoeuvre at the start of the CCTV clip
Instead of stopping immediately, they keep accelerating and the impact is so massive that debris is sent flying across the road as the car is pushed away.
The reversing vehicle then swings out into the road before hitting another car parked on the opposite side forcing it off the pavement.
YouTube / Skyblue Sims It then violently swings round and hits a vehicle on the opposite side of the street sending debris flying in all directions
Taking no chances the black SUV slowly backs away as the rampaging driver swings back into their original parking space – making the whole manoeuvre a bit pointless.

Was Bear's Celebrity Big Brother win FIXED? Chloe Khan finally reveals the truth

www.mirror.co.uk

Chloe Khan has addressed claims that Celebrity Big Brother is fixed.
Rumours spread like wildfire last week that Channel 5 producers were cutting out Stephen Bear's worst behaviour because they had secretly been planning to give him his own reality series.
More fuel was added to the fire when scripted scenes of the show were allegedly leaked on Channel 5.
Of course, nobody really knows the truth other than housemates and CBB bosses, so when Chloe decided to speak out this afternoon, we felt that perhaps the record had finally been set straight.
WENN Bear became the unlikely winner of the series on Friday
Taking to her Twitter account, she wrote: "haha scripted ? Even the top Hollywood writers couldn't of scripted / predicted all that craziness .... @bbuk."
It's pretty sweet that Chloe decided to defend her love interest's win after his antics on Friday.

Rather than sweep her off to Dubai as promised, the CBB champion was spotted getting hammered with a bevy of beauties at a London nightclub.

Since then, he's returned home to his family in East London and she has travelled back to her place in Wakefield.
Is it already game over for Chloe and her "naughty teddy bear"?

Arthur and Andrew Ramsay were attacked outside a pub in Dundee by John Garty
A father and son who were beaten unconscious by an “animal” have called for their attacker to be jailed.
John Garty launched the attack on Andrew Ramsay and his father Arthur last November, leaving the older man with permanent scarring and numbness, as well as a metal plate in his cheek.
Arthur said the attack had left him nervous about being out in big crowds.
He said: “All I remember is coming out, seeing Andrew lying and then being knocked out.
“I woke up in an ambulance and had no idea where I was. I blew my nose and my face erupted — my cheek and eye just felt like they exploded.
“I’ve been left with numbness in my top lip and teeth, I have a metal plate in my cheek and 15 stitches in my head.
“I still get headaches and the numbness will never go. I’m also not comfortable out in big crowds now.
“A week later, I was at the solicitors going over what happened and I burst out crying. All I was thinking about was that I might never have seen my family again, including my 22 grand kids and two great-grand-kids.
“He deserves a lengthy prison sentence for what he did.”
Arthur’s partner, Cecilia Gibb, and Andrew’s wife, Helen, looked on in horror as both men – aged 37 and 60 - were attacked by Garty outside The Town House pub in Dundee as they lay unconscious in the street.
Cascade Arthur was left with a metal plate in his cheek
Cecilia said: “He knocked Andrew out but kept punching and kicking him.
Helen and I were trying to get him off.
“Then Arthur came out to see what was happening and he volleyed him in the face as hard as he could, and Arthur fell back and hit against a car in the middle of the road — but he wouldn’t stop.
“To say he acted like an animal would be an insult to an animal. It was disgusting.
“The way he attacked them was horrendous. To attack an old man like that, I mean, Arthur is twice his age. I actually thought Arthur was dead at one point.
“It was only when the police arrived and told me he was in the ambulance being treated, that I knew he wasn’t.”
Garty, 29, admitted charges of assault to severe injury, and assault to severe injury, permanent disfigurement and permanent impairment. He will be sentenced next month.
Father-of-one Andrew said: “Garty had followed me out of the pub.
“He thought I had said something to him in the pub.
“Then he started punching me and knocked me out and I fell back on to the road.
“I was unconscious but my wife said he was stamping, punching and kicking me while I lay on the ground and couldn’t defend myself.
“As bad as that sounds, it’s the fact he hit my dad that really disgusts me. Dad’s an old man compared to him.
“I want to see him go to jail for attacking a defenceless old man.
“He’s scum — it’s as simple as that.”

Manchester United match-winner Marcus Rashford's time with England WILL come promises club and country captain Wayne Rooney
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Rashford will surely be in future England squads — but won't face Slovakia next month
Sam Allardyce feels he can afford to leave out boy-wonder Marcus Rashford .
Jose Mourinho might not find it quite as easy to do the same for too much longer.
Wayne Rooney comforted his young team-mate Rashford after his omission from Allardyce’s first England squad and demotion to the Under-21s , insisting: “I’m sure his chance will come.”
For Manchester United at least, that chance may happen sooner rather than later.
Rashford, last season’s breakout star, has been one of the victims of United’s summer of big transfer activity.
When he came on against Hull on Saturday evening , it was for his first appearance since a 20-minute cameo at the end of the Community Shield three games earlier.
Yet, in just 19 minutes, Rashford provided a reminder of why he is “one of the brightest talents in Europe” according to Rooney.

For all the big-money, global superstars United now have at their disposal it was the local academy kid who cost them nothing who was their match-winning hero.
United were dominant but toiling and struggling to break Hull’s resistance.
Then, fearless forward Rashford came on, just after another eye-catching sub Henrikh Mkhitaryan, and gave them something different.
Pace, movement, directness and a willingness to stretch the game, take on defenders and put them on the back foot.
His freakish instinct for being in the right place at the right time remains as sharp as ever, too.
And Rashford produced the decisive dart into the tiniest space in the six-yard box to meet Rooney’s injury-time cross, maintain United’s 100 per cent start under Mourinho and earn a string of compliments.
Substitute Rashford scores in added time to preserve United's 100% record:

What Rashford really wants is a place in the Reds' side, though finding a spot for him won’t be easy among the glut of established stars Mourinho has in forward areas.
But while most of them like to drop deep, want the ball to feet, or are a drawn to congested central areas of the pitch Rashford stands out as an alternative.
Anthony Martial is the one attacker who possesses similar attributes to Rashford, but he is lacking last season’s spark at the moment.
Rooney, a former boy-wonder himself, insists it is only a matter of time for Rashford with club and country.
He said: “Marcus is a fantastic player, one of the brightest talents in European football. I’m sure his chance will come.
Getty Rookie Rashford went to Euro 2016 under Roy Hodgson after a flurry of late-season goals...
Getty ..but new boss Sam Allardyce wants him to gain experience with England's U21s
"He did brilliantly when he came on and got his goal. He’s an important player for us.
“It was a big moment for him to go to the Euros and it’s still important for his development to go and play with the Under-21s.
“It’s important that he gets games, because he hasn’t played that much.
"I think it will be good for him. He knows that and he understands that and his time will come and he will get his chance for Manchester United and England.”
Mourinho said: “He has the perfect head for an 18-year-old — very stable, not in the Moon. So I think he has everything.”
In pictures — Hull 0-1 Manchester United:
Hull’s caretaker boss and former Old Trafford no2 Mike Phelan said: “He was probably in the Under-13s when I was there.
“I’ve just had a word with him, he’s too young to be playing football, he should still be at school.
“He’s an exceptional talent, he’s broken through and he’s taken his opportunity. He’s come off the substitutes’ bench, it’s reminiscent of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
“It just shows that Manchester United are still doing certain things really really well and I’ve been involved in those sorts of games myself where we’ve won it in the last minute.”

Arsenal transfer target Lucas Perez passes medical as £17million Gunners move nears completion

Lucas Perez has completed a medical in London and will complete his move to Arsenal this weekend.
Arsene Wenger is set to sign the forward for £17million — even though he was turned down by the Gunners one month ago.
The Spanish Deportivo La Coruna striker touched down in the capital on Thursday night ahead of finalising a deal.
Perez has been watched repeatedly by the north London club, but in July they knocked back the chance to sign him.
Getty Perez has completed a medical in London on Friday
Yet with pressure from fans demanding action in the transfer market as Wednesday night's deadline looms, manager Wenger has gone back in for the 27-year-old after he appeared to be heading for Everton.
Perez, who wants to play Champions League football, will have his medical in London today after being offered a four-year contract and it completes a dream rise for him from nomadic forward to being Arsenal's star summer signing.
Arsenal’s first offer was rejected by Deportivo on Thursday after they tried to pay the modest fee in two instalments, but a subsequent structured bid was accepted.
Despite scoring 17 goals last season, Perez was dismissed in the reports by several scouts as not being at Arsenal’s level and he was well down their list of potential signings.
But they moved back in to nick him off Everton, who had gone for Perez after strong recommendations from new director of football Steve Walsh — a key figure in Leicester striking gold with low-key buys such as Riyad Mahrez, Jamie Vardy and N'Golo Kante.
REUTERS
The Goodison Park club had already agreed terms, but Arsenal have beaten them to his signature.
And Wenger's late-window spending is unlikely to finish there.
Arsenal are still in the market for a defender and Mirror Sport understands a deal for Valencia’s Shkodran Mustafi could be back on.
The Spaniards have now agreed a £5m deal for Brazilian defender Sidnei - ironically, a Deportivo team-mate of Perez - and that may open the door for Mustafi to leave after all.

There is confidence at the Gunners that the Germany international wants to join them.
Arsene Wenger this morning claimed Arsenal are "99 per cent" certain to do big business in the transfer market.
Gunners boss Wenger is closing in on a £50million double deal for Deportivo La Coruna striker Lucas Perez and Valencia defender Shkodran Mustafi.
But Wenger admitted he has found this summer his hardest ever transfer window as the deals look set to go to the wire.
"I'm 99 per cent confident that we will make a signing," said Wenger. "I'm more optimistic than before but I can't announce anything yet.
"Honestly, I expected it to be easier than ever but it looks like it will be harder than ever. It will be frenetic in the next three days.
Stuart MacFarlane Calum Chambers could go out on loan
"I'm happy when our supporters are happy but my focus is on strengthening the squad in the right way."
Wenger also suggested Calum Chambers could go out on loan with the impending arrival of Mustafi.
"His future is not affected," said Wenger. "But he could go out on loan."
Wenger answered criticism from Wales boss Chris Coleman who questioned why Aaron Ramsey played and other Euro 2016 stars were rested. Coleman was annoyed as Ramsey suffered a hamstring injury and is out of the Wales squad.
Arsenal FC via Getty Arsene Wenger defended his decision to play Aaron Ramsey against Liverpool
"Because he didn't play the final or the semi-final," said Wenger when asked why Ramsey was played in the season opener against Liverpool.
Wenger claimed Arsenal's Champions League draw will be tough after they were paired with Paris Saint Germain, Basel and Ludogorets.
"We start in Paris so that will be an interesting test," said Wenger. "We don't know too much on Ludogorets at this stage but Basel we will have to be cautious.
Arsenal have the same squad but may be tempted to start with Olivier Giroud and Mesut Ozil.

Sir Philip Green set to find out in a matter of weeks if there will be a probe into the collapse of BHS

Sir Philip Green will find out soon if the collapse of BHS will be probed by the Serious Fraud Office
Billionaire tycoon Sir Philip Green will find out in a few weeks whether there will be a criminal probe into the collapse of BHS.
His £100million yacht is cruising the Med as the 88-year-old chain vanishes with the loss of 11,000 jobs and a
£571million black hole in its pension fund.
Shoppers are scrambling for bargains before the final 22 branches pull down their shutters for the last time today .
MPs have called for Sir Philip, 64, to be stripped of his knighthood after selling BHS for £1 to three-time bankrupt Dominic Chappell l8 months ago.

And Labour MP Frank Field, who has led a Parliamentary inquiry into the collapse, believes the Serious Fraud Office will decide in the next few weeks whether to launch a full-scale criminal investigation.
“They will make a preliminary finding by the end of September on whether fraud was committed by misleading people,” he said.
"The SFO said that it is “reviewing material in its possession”.
Splash Sir Philip Green is currently cruising the Med
A spokesman added: “If the director considers there are reasonable grounds to suspect serious or complex fraud which meets his criteria, he will open a criminal investigation.”
The SFO probe follows claims that Sir Philip rushed selling the 164-store chain to ex-racing driver Mr Chappell, who had no experience of retail.
BHS’s failure, which has put the pensions of 22,000 former staff at risk, is also being probed by the Pension Regulator.
It emerged Sir Philip could pay less than half the pension deficit.
Getty Sir Philip Green
A proposed deal with the Pension Regulator falls short of MPs’ demand that he should plug the entire deficit by handing over part of his personal fortune.
The Pension Regulator could be handed more regulatory powers to veto company sales in the wake of the BHS collapse.
An MPs’ report last month found Sir Philip had “extracted hundreds of millions of pounds from BHS”.
The lifeboat Pension Protection Fund has estimated it will cost at least £300million to provide for BHS’s pensioners.
Rex Sir Philip Green
As a secured creditor, Sir Philip will receive £35million he is owed if liquidators and administrators recover enough.
Sports Direct’s Mike Ashley has bought the BHS in St Helier, Jersey, for £18million. Primark has taken BHS stores in Canterbury, Leicester and Llandudno.
The Newcastle United owner’s luxury fashion chain Flannels.com has bought the now-closed BHS branch in St Helier, on the Channel island of Jersey, for £18million.
It is among 140 branches already shut by administrators after they failed to sell the high street chain as a going concern.

When is Notting Hill Carnival 2016? Map, outfits and weather for August bank holiday event
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Let's hope the 2015 rain on the parade is long forgotten at the Notting Hill Carnival
The Notting Hill Carnival hits the streets of London at the end of the month much to the delight of partygoers in the capital.
Known as Europe's biggest street party, it's likely to attract up to a million people
The carnival has been running annually since 1966, and is a marker of the summer for many residents of the capital and beyond.
Taking place every August Bank Holiday weekend, the carnival is an amazing array of sounds, colourful sights and social solidarity
A way for Afro-Caribbean communities to celebrate their own cultures and traditions, it features steel bands, flamboyant dress, amazing food and family-friendly entertainment.
The carnival itself is intended to unite communities, but also foster creativity and diversity in the borough of Kensington and Chelsea and beyond.
So here are all the details you need to have a great carnival.
What is Notting Hill Carnival?
WENN The area is likely to be crowded with people having a terrific time
Since 1966, the capital's Caribbean communities have celebrated their culture and traditions at this two-day festival of live music, ranging from reggae and dub to salsa and Calypso.
The very first event in 1964 was an attempt to showcase the steel band musicians who played in the Earls Court of London every weekend.
When the bands paraded through the streets of Notting Hill, they drew black residents out on to the streets, reminding them of the Caribbean homes they had left behind.
At the roots of the Notting Hill Carnival are the Caribbean carnivals of the early 19th century – a particularly strong tradition in Trinidad – which were all about celebrating the abolition of slavery and the slave trade.
Celebrations now include soca floats, steel bands and traditional foods like hot hot hot jerk chicken and fried plantain.
When is Notting Hill Carnival?
Performers take to the streets in their hundreds in amazing costumes
The carnival takes place on Sunday, August 28 (also known as 'Children's Day') until Monday, August 29.
The Carnival floats and bands set off at 9am on both Sunday and Monday mornings, running roughly until 7pm both days.
Bank Holiday Monday is the day of the main parade, with floats leave the streets in procession in the evening so people can continue the festivities at Notting Hill Carnival after-parties.
Where is Notting Hill Carnival?
The event is the largest street festival in the world and will show you some amazing sights
The carnival celebrations take over the streets of W11, west London. The nearest tube stations are Notting Hill Gate, Holland Park and Ladbroke Grove.
What happens at the Carnival on Saturday?
The event kicks off on Saturday night with Panorama - a fabulous, free open air evening for the entire family, steel band lovers, general music lovers or anyone looking to enjoy a great evening in a Caribbean style atmosphere.
The evening consists of a competitive performance by national steel bands and other entertainment.
It's at Emslie Horniman Pleasance Park, Bosworth Road, W10 from 6pm to 10pm and is free to watch.

Liam Plunkett says England comeback has been inspired by outgoing Yorkshire coach Jason Gillespie
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Liam Plunkett has credited departing Yorkshire coach Jason Gillepsie with revitalising his career and giving him another crack with England.
Plunkett has become a mainstay of England’s white-ball revolution over the past six months taking a central role in their progress to the World T20 final and their undefeated one day run this summer.
And he has hailed the part played by Gillespie who will leave Yorkshire at the end of the season to head back to Australia with his family, but not without making a considerably positive mark on English cricket.
“I’m obviously gutted he’s leaving because he was good for me, and good for the team,” said Plunkett, who made his England debut in 2005.
“It’s a tough decision that he’s made. But I want to thank him for taking a chance on me to come to Yorkshire. He’s been nothing but positive to me and he’s brought me back to playing for England.

“One of reasons I moved to Yorkshire is that he was a bowler himself and went through his ups and downs.
“One of the first net sessions I had with him was in the winter and I hit the side netting. I thought that was the end of my career at Yorkshire right then but he said don’t worry about it, it’s November. I take my hat off to him, I owe him quite a bit.”

Plunkett is not the only one and the White Rose county will aim to send him on his way with a third successive Championship title before working out who will replace him with the likes of Richard Dawson, Chris Silverwood and Paul Farbrace in the running.
As the most experienced bowler in England’s one day setup at 31, Plunkett rates this current side as the best he’s been involved with.
They should wrap up the series against a poor Pakistan side in Nottingham with the same team that has won the first two games, and then thoughts will turn to Bangladesh and whether to tour.
In pictures - England vs Pakistan, Second ODI:
“We had individuals in the past but I feel this is the best team,” he added. “From New Zealand last year we have gone from strength to strength and we want to win this series 5-0.
“I like the responsibility I’ve got, I feel comfortable in myself and playing for England. I am more consistent now and back myself to take wickets.
“I’ll think about Bangladesh after the series, I’ve not been picked yet. There is trouble everywhere in the world.”

Richard Branson and Virgin Trains need to live up to their promises, says Mirror columnist John Prescott

John Prescott: In the battle of Jeremy Corbyn v Richard Branson
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Jeremy Corbyn sits on the floor of an overcrowded Virgin train travelling from London to Newcastle
Jeremy Corbyn v Richard Branson – the Battle of the Beards. And as someone who uses the East Coast line every week, I’m with the passengers.
Virgin East Coast Trains, which Corbyn highlighted in his video, is 90 per cent owned by Stagecoach, run by SNP donor Brian Souter.
Virgin Trains owns only 10 per cent. And Stagecoach owns half of that too. But this dispute is 100 per cent about Branson. It’s all about protecting his “brand” at any cost.
When I was Labour ’s shadow transport minister before Major privatised the railways, Branson told me he wanted to own both the East Coast and the West Coast services.
His dream was to own a rail “loop” around the country. I was dead against it.
Getty Richard Branson needs to come good on his promises
As Transport Secretary I faced a mountain of problems to sort out the privatisation mess. My priority was improving the rail lines.
Sadly my hands were tied on taking the franchises back into public ownership.
They had years to run and would have cost billions in compensation to people like Branson to take them back.
Blair and Brown felt there were more pressing priorities – getting people back to work and investing in our creaking NHS and schools after years of Tory misrule.
But in 2009, Labour had to take the East Coast route back into public hands.
The previous private franchise owners National Express and GNER couldn’t make it profitable.
Video loading Watch next Watch this video again Watch Next Click to play Tap to play The Live Event you are trying to watch is either unavailable or has not started Please refresh this page in your browser to reload this live event video
So we created East Coast Trains. This meant we could compare a London-to-Scotland train service in public hands with Branson’s.
Guess which was better?
From 2009 until 2014, a state-run East Coast Trains delivered £1billion back to the taxpayer. Which was all reinvested in making the service better.
Over the same period, Virgin West Coast could only manage a third of that profit – and most of that sum went to its shareholders.
In fact, they lost the franchise to First Trains, only to get it back after a legal challenge.
East Coast Trains provided a better service, a better return, used less subsidy and made the taxpayer money.
A Virgin train enroute
But the Tories forced the sell-off of the East Coast Route to Virgin and Stagecoach just before the last General Election for £3billion. Branson finally got his loop.
But they paid twice as much as the previous private owners paid – and they couldn’t make it work. How will Virgin do it?
Well, in the past the state subsidised his profits. A study by academics at the University of Manchester found the total subsidy we gave Virgin West Coast between 1997 and 2012 was £2.79billion.
Government then spent £9bn upgrading the West Coast Track and heavily subsidised his new Pendolino trains.
And Network Rail, which controls the lines, reduced the yearly track access charges train companies have to pay from £3bn to £1.5bn. Another state subsidy.
So between 1997 and 2012, Virgin West Coast Trains were able to make £518m profit – 96 per cent of which was given straight to shareholders.
Richard Branson
But Branson’s finding Virgin East Coast a bit more of a problem as the Tories are reducing the subsidies – and it’s the staff and passengers who’ll pay the price.
It pulled many of its cheapest advanced fares from popular routes, doubling some fares – and passengers aren’t even guaranteed a seat.
According to the train union the RMT, dozens of staff face the sack as Virgin East Coast tries to find cuts. Free wifi on all trains promised in Branson’s bid has failed to appear.
And on my Virgin East Coast Train, once proudly known as the Hull Executive, the service has rapidly deteriorated. Forget wifi, the train I get doesn’t even have plug sockets.
And five months before we become the UK City of Culture attracting tourists from around the world, the engine is branded East Midlands Trains.
I wrote to Branson on three occasions but received no reply. But he’s more than happy to potentially breach data protection laws (the ICO is “making inquiries”) and publish CCTV footage of a man who wants to take his shoddy train service back into public hands.
They may be Virgin Trains. But the passengers are getting screwed day after day.

Elderly ex-England rugby star 'throws hot tea in burglar's face then uses mug to fend off his accomplice'
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Ex-England rugby international John Ranson played for the team in 1963 and 1964
An elderly ex- England rugby star apparently chased off three burglars by slamming the door on one, throwing hot tea in the eyes of the second and aiming his empty mug at the other one.
John Ranson, 78, says he chased off the balaclava-wearing trio – one of whom was reportedly armed – from his home in Malta.
The terrifying incident happened in Siggiewie – a rural area where the former sportsman has lived for a decade.
He told the Times of Malta: “I thought attack was the best form of defence. At the time, the only weapons I had were my tea and my voice.
“At first I thought it was someone playing a prank, then when I saw they were hooded, and one of them was holding a gun, I knew this was real – they hadn’t come for bacon sandwiches."
Rex He has lived in Siggiewie for the last 10 years
"I made a mug of tea and was going through the garage when I saw a foot behind the door."
"They were all wearing balaclavas and one of them had a gun. I thought: 'This is for real'."
After the burglars fled over a wall John then started shouting names to give the impression that there were others in his house.
He had earlier spotted a group of Italian-speaking men inside his property but they fled in a car when he asked why they were there.
John, who has seven test caps playing for England in 1963 and 1964, reported them to police but was told the escape vehicle’s numberplate was a fake.
He has now locked all his doors and windows.

Pagham siege: Gun-toting pensioner suffering from cancer set for second night in armed stand-off with police
| null | null |

The stand-off began at around 4pm on Sunday
A gun-toting pensioner suffering from cancer is set to spend a second night in an armed stand-off with police.
The man, named locally as Terry Bridger, 72, reportedly sparked the siege by taking a woman hostage at his home.
She left the property unharmed a short time after officers arrived at the scene.
The drama started at around 4pm on Sunday and the gunman remains inside the property.
At 8pm police said they are preparing for "a second night of discussions".
Crates of water and portable toilets have been delivered to help police involved in the stand-off.
PA Armed police at the scene on Harbour Road, Pagham
Neighbour Alistair Black, 77, said: "There's nothing unusual about them from what I've seen, they are just an elderly couple.
"They are trying to coax him out. I've seen about 18 officers, including about five armed police, and around 12 cars.
"It's quite sad really. It's obviously something that's just got out of hand."
Mum Charlotte Meeks added: "I'm not quite sure where we heard it but apparently he has quite a lot of guns. Loads of guns."
The sleepy village of Pagham, West Sussex, was placed on lockdown shortly after 4pm on Sunday.
Police received reports that a 72-year-old man with a gun had been behaving in a threatening way.
Armed officers carrying automatic weapons descended on the property and helped rescue a woman.
PA Police are preparing for a second night of negotiations
Negotiators used a loudhailer to communicate with the gunman as the siege went on through the night.
Most local residents have been advised to stay in their homes while some have reportedly been evacuated.
Terry, who is said to be terminally ill, lives at his seaside bungalow with wife Dawn, 67.
It is not known whether she is the woman he initially took hostage.
Local Josephine Aslett, 64, said: "Some people weren't allowed back to their houses at all, but luckily we were just on the edge.
PA The man initially took a female hostage
"The policeman said that an old boy was inside with a gun and had taken a lady hostage."
Chief Superintendent Neil Honnor said: "I appreciate this must be a little disconcerting and frustrating for local residents having a continued large police presence outside their homes.
"The safety of the local community is paramount and we are doing all we can to resolve this ongoing incident in a controlled way.
"The road closure and cordons remain in place but residents are still free to come and go as and when they need to with police support.
"We would once again like to thank the local community for their patience and understanding.”

Celebrity Big Brother's Bear CLASHES with Emma Willis as she loses her cool during interview

Bear came out of the Celebrity Big Brother house as the winner and made quite a grand escape from the house.
The outspoken housemate slid down the stairs, gave Chloe Khan a kiss and then got the live studio audience to start chanting "Winner".
Even during his exit interview he was chanting "champion" and said "I knew I was going to win it. I'm a nice guy, why wouldn't you pick me?"
Channel 5 Stephen Bear was boastful in his win
Channel 5 The Bear made sure to milk his win for everything it was worth
Bear had correctly predicted that he would win the show before he entered the house at the start of the series, and then explained to Emma why he was so sure.
He said: "If you believe that you're going to do something you always win. If I start off with the mindset that I'm going to win, then I win."
When asked about why he used to enjoy winding up the other housemates, Bear danced around the question and simply said: "All I think is if I wanna make a pancake I'll make a pancake, and if that annoys people then so be it."
Channel 5 Emma and Bear hugged despite clashing during the interview
Channel 5
Emma told Bear to be serious because of his constant interruptions to her during the interview and his lack of serious answers.
"If I know I've upset one I'll leave them. I know my limits, and I leave them," he said trying to be a better winner after visibly irking Emma.
Surprisingly, Bear actually said that he thought he was good at reducing tensions in the house, even though he was often the cause of the arguments.
He said: "I think I'm a good diffuser of situations. A professional."

Emma again pressed him and said: "You're not answering the question", to which Bear said: "I'm a politician, I suppose."
Emma sparked a reaction from Bear when she suggested he was a bad loser because he always reacted badly when the tables were turned, even though he always played tricks and wound up everyone else.
"When that game was turned on you you didn't take it very well. But its just a game you'd say," said Emma.
Bear replied: "When I won I loved it so it's swing and roundabout's in this house isn't it."
The Bear was also asked about his relationship with Chloe and why he couldn't wait until he was off the show to dump his girlfriend Lillie Lexi.

He said: "When two guys like each other, there's nothing wrong with it. I forgot i was in front of cameras.
"The reason I split up with my girlfriend was because I didn't want her to be put through all the stuff I put my last girlfriend through."
"Couldn't you wait?" asked Emma. But again Bear dodged the question and said: "Well couldn't you wear a red dress?"

Danny Dyer has taken a thinly-veiled dig at Mark Wright and called for his own role on Murder In Successville.
The EastEnders star - whose feud with the reality TV hunk was taken to another level when he was 'jumped' by some of Mark's pals at V Festival - responded to a tweet suggesting his rival is a better actor based on his performance in the BBC comedy.
He tweeted: "Get me on that show @BigTomD lively. Time for a masterclass in thespianism. ;) (sic)"
Twitter Danny wants to outdo Mark
The show's creator responded to the call and said he's "ready" when Danny is, leading the hard man to reply: "Let's have it!!!! (sic)"
The actor went on to take another possible dig at Mark's friends, sharing an image of three men each being trodden on by bigger men.

He captioned it: "The V festival dance. Wish I'd learnt it before. Can't wait for next year."
Danny confirmed this week that Mark wasn't involved in the physical confrontation which left him with a black eye, but he has asked him to name his "snakey" mates.
He posted a picture Mark's pals on Twitter, writing: "Friends eh. How to ruin ya pals career before it had even started. Legends. Other than that I had a proper night. X (sic)"

Danny was hurt in the V Festival incident
Things first turned nasty on Saturday night at 10.30pm at the Mahiki backstage area where according to eye-witnesses, Danny had been calling Mark names.
A source close to Mark said: “Mark was no way involved in the fight, he was shocked by what happened and was telling them to stop fighting.”
Towards the end of the fight Mark came running round the corner while one of Danny’s pals yelled at him: “Please, please can you get them to stop.”

Manchester United starlet Andreas Pereira agrees to join Granada on season-long loan

www.mirror.co.uk

Andreas Pereira, the Manchester United attacking midfielder, has agreed to join La Liga side Granada.
The 20-year-old Brazilian will spend the entirety of this season on loan before returning to Old Trafford on July 1.
Pereira played 11 times for United last season, scoring once.
However, he's not been included in any of Jose Mourinho's matchday squads this season and the Portuguese was keen for him to get game time elsewhere.
The United manager's first choice was for Pereira to join a Premier League club, but the youngster will instead continue his development in Spain.
John Peters/Man Utd via Getty Images The next phase of Pereira's development will take place in Granada
Pereira spoke out about his lack of game time at United during the January transfer window and suggested the club risked losing him if he wasn't given more time on the pitch.
Meanwhile, Mourinho has hammered another nail in the coffin of Bastian Schweinsteiger's United career, telling the German he'd rather throw untested youngsters into the first team than give the veteran midfielder another chance at the club.
Asked if Schweinsteiger, 32, could play for United again, Mourinho said: "I think it's very difficult to happen.
"I'm not saying it's impossible, I'm saying its very difficult because we have made a decision about Pogba, Herrera, Schneiderlin, Fellaini and Carrick, we have five players for two positions, so it's very difficult for an opportunity to arise."

"Something's coming," says Sherlock in the trailer. "Maybe it's Moriarty? Maybe it's not? Something's coming."
"We brought you back to deal with this, what are you going to do?" an unknown woman adds to Sherlock.

Nurseries left out of pocket by underfunding for the Tory 'free childcare' pledge plan to bill families up to £10 a day and place restrictions on hours

Parents face charges as David Cameron's free childcare promise falls to pieces
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Parents taking advantage of David Cameron's promise of extra free childcare could find themselves stuck with a bill, nurseries have warned.
The Tory ex-PM's pledge to double the amount of free childcare to 30 hours a week by 2017 was a key part of the party's 2015 Manifesto.
But nurseries say the Government is already dramatically underfunding them for the free care they provide now.
Some say they could be up to £70,000 worse off if the plan goes forward with the current funding, and it will lead to many nurseries abandoning the scheme altogether.
While nurseries aren't allowed to charge parents for 'free' childcare, they can charge for other things that are usually included in the hourly fee, like food and nappies.
One nursery owner told the BBC she'd be asking parents to make contributions of £5 or £10 a day.

But today the Department for Education said the government subsidy was "not intended to fund the cost of consumables (such as drinks, meals and nappies) or additional services (such as trips)."
They also insist: "Paying for additional services must not be a condition of taking up a free publicly-funded place."
Labour's Shadow Education Secretary, Angela Rayner said: "The Government's underfunding of childcare shows that they do not understand the challenges faced by working families in this country.
"Their manifesto commitment to deliver 30 hours of free childcare a week is evporating because, as always with the Tories, they simply fail to fund vital public services."
Another nursery owner told the BBC non-fee paying parents will have to apply for a place three times a year, and wouldn't be allowed to choose their hours - leading to fears it could create a two-tier system.
Currently parents can claim up to 15 hours of taxpayer funded childcare.
The policy will be trialled in York from next month and will be rolled out across England in 2017.
Vanessa Warn, who runs two nurseries in York said she expected the policy to leave her £70,000 a year worse off.
Neil Leitch, chief executive of the Pre-school Learning Alliance said: "As the Department for Education itself has acknowledged, if childcare providers find that they'll be financially worse off by delivering the 30 hours, many will simply opt out of the scheme.
"Unless the government ensures that funding actually covers the cost of providing free childcare – and will continue to do so over the years to come – this is exactly what will happen."
The Department for Education said: “We are doubling our free childcare offer for working parents to make it easier for them to get on and balance work with their family lives. We will be spending a record £6 billion on childcare by the end of this Parliament and recently published plans for a fairer funding system for nurseries and preschools, which received widespread support.
"We had huge demand from local areas to take part in delivering our 30 hour offer a year early and the eight areas that were chosen – including York – will help us get the delivery of our offer right so we can hit the ground running in September 2017.”

Celebrity divorces like Johnny Depp's are create unreasonable demands in normal splits
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

High profile celebrity divorces - such as Johnny Depp’s split from Amber Heard - are creating “unrealistic expectations” for divorcing couples, according to family lawyers.
They are warning that a recent spate of high-profile divorces among the mega rich are breeding a culture of unreasonable demands in normal divorce cases which can pile on the stress and pressure already created by separation.
Hollywood actress Heard, 30, published her expenses during her headline-grabbing split from Depp which she claims run to £33,500 a month.
She included claims for rent, groceries, gifts and entertainment as well as grooming and pet supplies for her dogs and her publicist, agent and attorney fees.

And former supermodel Christina Estrada, 54, was successful in obtaining a share of her Saudi husband’s fortune in one of Britain’s biggest ever High Court divorce battles last month.
Sheikh Walid Juffali, 61, was ordered to pay Estrada a lump sum of £53million - the largest “needs” pay-out ever made by an English court.
Estrada claimed she also needed £1million a year just to dress herself, with her shopping list including £58,000 for two luxury handbags, as well as £23,000 for six ‘casual’ handbags and £35,000 for ten clutch bags.
Lyn Ayrton, of family law firm Lake Legal, said: “Reports of a handbag allowance running to tens of thousands of pounds are not helpful in the vast majority of divorces.
“Couples need to have realistic expectations through the process. There is no principle in English law that a spouse has to be kept in a particular lifestyle.

Rex David Haye and wife Natasha divorced after eight years
“The standard of living enjoyed by the parties is taken into account but it is only one of many factors and in most cases both parties have to cut their cloth after a separation.”
Ms Ayrton argues that a more realistic approach to maintenance would help to facilitate quicker and easier divorce proceedings, which also helps to minimise the stress involved in separation.
Other recent high profile divorces include former world heavyweight boxing champion David Haye and his wife Natasha who were granted a divorce after eight years of marriage.
Getty Malaak Compton-Rock and Chris Rock ended their long marriage in 2014
Comedian and actor Chris Rock and his wife Malaak Compton-Rock announced the end of their nearly 20-year marriage in 2014, and spent the next two years hashing out the details of their divorce settlement - including the issue of child support.
China has recently been captivated by action star Wang Baoqiang who is seeking to divorce his actress wife Ma Rong.
The divorce, brought about by an alleged affair, sent Chinese social media into meltdown with posts about the scandal attracting more than five billion views.

Rob Kardashian's tumultuous relationship with fiancee Blac Chyna is laid bare in the latest episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians.
Rob's mum Kris Jenner is seen talking to his sisters Khloe and Kim about concerns the sock designer could go missing after an explosive fight with the model.
In a teaser for the next episode, Khloe asks Kris: "They're still not talking to each other? How long is that gonna go on for?"
"I don't know," Kris replies. "But I talked to Chyna and it scared me because it was everything that we had experienced with him, she was experiencing the same thing," Kris replies, referring to Rob's reclusive nature.
"So she wrote me last night and she said, 'Can I see you tomorrow? I just really need to talk to you, Rob won't talk to me.'"
Rob, 29, is expecting his first child with Blac, 28. They got engaged in April following a whirlwind romance.
Sensing their fight might rumble on, Kim asks: "Is he ever gonna see his kid though, or is she gonna take it?"
"You really think they're over?" Khloe asks. "He seems like when I talked to him he was very much in love with her. Am I missing something? How long have they not been speaking for?"
"I don't know," Kris replies.
Khloe then explains" "I know when my brother hurts how badly he does hurt.
"The more they're fighting and the longer things are bothering him the more depressed he gets, he'll go into hiding again, go missing. I don't want Rob to live that life anymore."

7 lessons learned from painful break-ups as the broken-hearted share words of wisdom
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk
|
Are you grateful for the lessons your last break-up taught you?
When in the throes of a heart-rending break-up, it's impossible to think that you might emerge from the experience a wiser person. However, anything that hurts leaves the reminder to not do it again.
A thread along these lines has been started on Reddit, asking commenters to talk about the lessons they learnt from break-ups. We've listed the seven most useful lessons below.
As the song Everybody's Free (to wear Sunscreen) - a break-up fave it turns out - puts it: "Don't be reckless with other people's hearts, don't put up with people who are reckless with yours." Amen, Baz Luhrmann.
Getty Some of these lessons will sound depressingly familiar
1. Beware of dating a friend who just happens to be of the opposite sex
Commenter WyYouAlwaysThinkThat's point was followed up by a number of people. toddsmash added his own story, saying, "While we were great mates, we were completely incompatible as dates."
2. Don't idealise your prospective other half
manuayala's point struck a lot of chords, with Namffohci wisely adding, "When you put people on pedestals, all they can do is look down at you." Indeed.
3. Don't be afraid of honest conversations
77remix's advice incited a slew of comments., including this tear-jerking one from sissy_space_yak: "I think surprise breakups are the most traumatic :("
4. Carve out time to be with your friends
As commenter Big_Truck says, " If the relationship ends on a bad note, you have a support structure (friends) as you transition into single life and all of the free time that comes with it.
If all of your friends are shared (not your own), then someone is getting cut out of the social group. Speaking from experience, that's a bitch."
Losing your friends as well as your partner - that's just too, too much.
Getty Love is all good and everything, but never, ever let go of your hotdog costume!
5. Be sure you have all your stuff moved out before you break the bad news
Good idea from tezoatlipoca, otherwise you might share kwerty_y's sad fate: "I lost my hot dog costume in my breakup :'("
6. You do not have to be in a relationship to be happy
Comforting words from tjeco, and another commenter, Tanellthyon added this depressing thought: "You can still be lonely in a relationship, and that's infinitely worse. Loneliness passes."
7. You will always heal
An uplifting thought to end upon, from AggressiveSpatula: "You will always heal. No matter how bad it was, no matter how long it takes. It will happen. And usually when you're looking the other way."
No matter how bad it was, no matter how long it takes. It will happen. And usually when you're looking the other way.

David Newlands has been jailed after boatsing about avoiding prison on Facebook
A thug who boasted about avoiding prison on Facebook has now been jailed by a judge who told him: “As they say LOL.”
David Newlands, 24, was given 150 hours community service for punching a vulnerable man.
But he refused to do the unpaid work and wrote on Facebook “I’m out bro, easy.”
The comment was brought to the attention of the judge by social workers who prepared a background report on Newlands.
And the yob, who is currently serving an eight-month sentence for a separate assault and breach of the peace, has now been given an extra nine months behind bars.
Daily Record Judge Norman Ritchie, on left, told the thug "as they say LOL" as he jailed him
Newlands, from Glasgow, was in a group of eight people, described as “a pack of animals” who chased a man with learning difficulties until he threw himself out of a flat window in August last year.
Last January he was given a community sentence but refused to comply.
He later posted on Facebook: “A got a high court conviction n they never sent me eh jail instead gave me a community order ..told them to stick it...so got sent back to court n what do they dae?
Newlands Facebook post, boasting when he wasn't sent to prison
“The judge says Mr Newlands I would refer to you as an idiot..n then what does he dae? He geez me it again...probation am no dayn it simple!!!”
Newlands admitted breaching the order when he again appeared before Judge Norman Ritchie at the High Court in Glasgow.
And the Judge told him: “It’s always interesting to see a different view on sentencing as in ‘I’m out bro easy.’ As they say lol.”

Hannah was treated by her owner to the dream day out
A heartbroken mum has chronicled the final day of her family dog's life through a series of touching Snapchat images.
In a post on Imgur - entitled "Dogs are too amazing to let go, but sometimes it happens and they will forgive you" - she shares how the beloved animal had grown old.
Describing the health of her pet, she wrote: "For about two months Hannah has been having seizures, they were small and nothing to worry about, but they gradually got worse.
"Hannah was on a couple of meds, one for her kidneys and another for the pain she had in her elbows and her hips.
imgur
"When she wasn't on her meds, she didn't have really bad seizures, she had them, but they weren't horrible, but when she wasn't on her meds, she couldn't walk well or make it up the stairs, several times she fell down them or up them.
imgur
"I finally decided that keeping her on the meds was selfish, but keeping her off of them was just as cruel. So I decided to give her one last hoo-rah day of pampering, like the queen she's always been, and let her go.
imgur
"Where there would be no pain, no seizures, no whimpering in the night. Just peace and hopefully love. <3 R.I.P. Hannah."
So before the dog was put down, she decided to take the dog on a dream day out.
It even included a trip to McDonald's - and the post has since gone viral.
And the dog was also treated to aroma therapy.
imgur
The dog also got a "little beauty mark" which was a purple colouring on his fur in the shape of a heart.
Eventually though, it was time to say goodbye.
On the final image, one user wrote: "I knew it was coming but that last image was heartbreaking."

French Montana, Iggy Azalea and a group of their pals jetted off to celeb holiday hotspot Cabo San Lucas in Mexico over the weekend.
The group flew via private jet and documented their short - but very sweet - flight on social media.
One video shows French, 31, admiring the Australian rapper's rear before playfully resting his head on it.

French, who used to date Khloe Kardashian, and newly single Iggy first sparked rumours they could be more than friends when they were spotted together at Jennifer Lopez's show in Las Vegas at the end of July.
The previous month, Iggy called time on her relationship with basketball player Nick Young.

Lazaar is closing in on a move to Newcastle
Newcastle United are reportedly closing in on the signing of Palermo full-back Achraf Lazaar.
The Morocco is wanted by Rafa Benitez with the Spaniard keen to add cover to his back four, report the Newcastle Chronicle.
Lazaar is believed to have been offered a five-year deal, with a fee of €3.5million agreed between the two clubs.
The left-back has also been linked with West Ham United this summer but Newcastle are keen to bring him to St James’ Park over the weekend.
Newcastle are also understood to be interested in Chelsea winger Christian Atsu but Benitez did not confirm or deny talk that the club are in for the Ghana international.
Chelsea FC via Getty Atsu (left) has been back in training with Chelsea's first-team
Alex Livesey Atsu has barely featured since his loan move to Everton
He said today: “We are trying very hard and we have been monitoring players, but sometimes it depends on offers, wages, agents.
“We can afford players if it is necessary, but sometimes it is not easy because they won’t come to the Championship or they are in the Champions League.
“We have to do some deals.
PA Wire Benitez is hoping to get some deals over the line
“We are loaning players, sending players, buying players, we have some names, targets.
“Arsene Wenger was saying it is a very difficult transfer window and it is true because of the prices.”

Android 7.0 Nougat is Google's way of refining what we already have, and adding some essential features to an operating system they were already happy with
Google has begun to roll out its latest software, Android 7.0, also known as Nougat. The tech giant has a long tradition of naming its updates after sweet treats, including Marshmallow, KitKat and Ice Cream Sandwich, and this year it opened the decision up to its fans .
Although the company has being releasing developer previews of Android N, as it was previously known, as far back as March, the final version is now finally available to download. Here are all the key features in the new update, and how you can download it.
More emoji

Can’t get enough of those little yellow faces? You’re in luck, as Nougat supports more than 1,500 emoji, including 72 brand new ones. Among the new symbols are an avocado, a pregnant lady, bacon and an owl.
For the first time Android users will be able to modify the skin tone of certain emoji, which iPhone owners have been able to do since last year .
You can do it by pressing and holding your emoji of choice, which will trigger a new menu providing a variety of skin tones.
Better battery life

Battery life is a key consideration when it comes to choosing a new phone, and Google is committed to developing software to help it run more efficiently and conserve power.
Last year’s 6.0 Marshmallow release introduced Doze, a clever feature which powers down your phone once it’s left stationary. Another hidden feature also helped to extend battery life by up to 30% .
This year, Doze has been updated to enter low-power usage mode even when it’s in your pocket or you’re moving around with it.
Improved productivity

Google has ramped up its productivity features, designed to help Nougat users juggle multiple apps simultaneously and simply.
The first of these, Quick Switch, allows you to jump between your two most recently opened apps - for example, Messages and Play Store - by tapping the Overview button on the far right.
You can also reply directly from within your notifications for the first time, removing the need to open up the app. Notifications are also bundled together, meaning all recent messages, emails and other alerts from other apps are stored in one spot.
The Multi-window feature has been designed to allow two apps to run on-screen at the same time, so you can continue watching a video on YouTube while replying to an email. You can resize the windows by dragging the divider up or down.
Custom quick settings

Nougat brings with it the ability to rearrange the tiles in your Quick Settings, granting you quick and easy access to the important functions you use the most, such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, battery life and location data.
Extra security

New security features are focused on updating your device without interrupting you, and keeping your handset more secure.
A new function called Seamless Updates allows certain new Android models to download software updates in the background, allowing you to continue to use your phone without having to wait for it to sync with all your apps.
Nexus owners will also benefit from significantly faster download speeds, according to Google.
Should you need to restart your phone, Direct Boot will help it to get up and running again more quickly. Apps will also begin running securely before you even unlock the phone, removing any potential for vulnerabilities.
Individual files will also be encrypted, resulting in better detection and isolation of any potentially harmful files on your handset.
Daydreaming in VR

Phones running Nougat will be able to support VulkanTM and Daydream, Google’s mobile virtual reality platform, due for release later in the autumn.
Can I download Android 7.0?
Google Nexus 6P
As usual, Google releases its new software updates in batches, meaning newer devices will be first to receive Nougat and owners of older phones may have to wait a while.
Currently the Nexus 6, Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P, Nexus 9, Nexus Player, Pixel C and General Mobile 4G (Android One) devices are eligible for the free, over-the-air Nougat update. Older devices will be able to upgrade in the next few months.
LG’s forthcoming LG V20 smartphone will be the first to ship with the new software, and is likely to be followed by Google’s next generation of its phones some time in the autumn.
How do I download it?

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West take Saint and North for a family dinner following VMAs

The Kardashian-Wests enjoyed a family dinner on Monday following their night at the MTV VMAs.
Kim and Kanye were spotted leaving their New York apartment as they headed for a meal at Serendipity restaurant.
The reality star looked as stylish as ever in a form-fitting leather skirt, black sweater and strappy heels as she carried a shy North.
While rapper Kanye, who debuted his latest video for new track Fade on Sunday night, was carrying adorable little Saint who looked as cute as a button in a camouflage T-shirt and shorts.

Later in the evening, the famous family were spotted returning to their apartment and Kim told the photographers to keep quiet so they didn't wake North who was fast asleep on her mum's shoulder.
The previous night, the pair attended the MTV Video Music Awards where Kanye gave yet another impassioned speech.

He said: "I am Kanye West and it feels really great to say that - especially this year. I came here to present my new video but before I do that I'm going to talk."
Kanye - who famously interrupted Taylor's acceptance speech when she picked up the Best Female Video award at the 2009 VMAs in which he said his friend Beyoncé should have won - went on to subtly mock the Blank Space singer, who didn't attend this year's ceremony.

He said: "Now later tonight Famous might lose to Beyoncé but I can't be mad. I'm always wishing for Beyoncé to win so... For people to understand just how blessed we are, ['Famous'] was an expression of our now, our fame right now, us on the inside of the TV... [I had the] audacity to put Anna Wintour right next to Donald Trump."
He then praised his wife Kim, saying: "My wife is a G! Not a lot of people's wives would let them say that."

He finished up his speech by mentioning gun violence and Taylor, whom he fell out with earlier this year after he referenced having sex with her in the lyrics for Famous.
He said: "We came over in the same boat, now we're all in the same bed. Well, maybe different boats, but, if you think about last week, there was 22 people murdered in Chicago.
"People come up to me like, 'Man, that's right, take Taylor down,' - Bro, I love all of y'all. That's why I called her..."

We don't think anyone had a better time at the MTV VMAs last night than Drake, not even Rihanna .
The rapper announced he was in love with the Bajan singer while presenting her the MTV Vanguard award last night in New York causing their fans to go into meltdown and the cute moments didn't end there.
The on-off couple then headed backstage where RiRi was congratulated on her achievement by her family including her mother, grandfather and brother Rorry and the Views rapper made sure he was right in on the action, shmoozing with the potential in-laws.
Twitter Drake and Rihanna with her grandfather
In a string of SnapChat pictures, Drake can be seen posing with the Fenty family and he can't wipe the huge grin off his face.
He was also caught having a sweet conversation with Ri's grandfather, who said he wanted to go back to the Toronto restaurant where the couple first met, something the Canadian star mentioned in his gushing speech.
Snapchat The Fenty family
A very smitten Drake then headed out with the 28-year-old star and her entourage to celebrate her night and if that wasn't enough, he then shared ANOTHER message on Instagram dedicated to the Anti songstress.
He wrote alongside the shot: "This is a night for us all to be thankful for what you have done for us! You have affected so many of our lives in the best way possible. Tonight we celebrate you! @badgalriri"
If Rihanna doesn't plan on marrying Drake someone should REALLY let him know.
Earlier in the night Drake almost had the whole of Madison Square Garden in tears as he presented Rihanna with the Michael Jackson Vanguard Award at the MTV Video Music Awards - and declared his love for the star.
Dressed in a tuxedo, Drake told the crowd they'd met 11 years ago, and admitted he's been in love with her pretty much ever since.
"She is someone I’ve been in love with since I was 22-years-old," he gushed.

"She’s one of my best friends in the world. All my adult life I’ve looked up to her."
He also praised the star, who performed four times on the night, for never changing.

"What’s most impressive isn’t the endless list of stats, awards or accomplishments.
"She succeeds by doing something which no one in this music industry does - and that’s be herself."
His gushing speech and outfit prompted many fans to believe Drake was about to pop the question.

"I think MTV cut out Drake's marriage proposal to Rihanna because it would have been too much for the general public to handle," one joked.
Another said: "Really thought Drake was about to propose though. Was about to make a lot of dudes look bad. Like, how can anyone beat a VMA proposal?"
Rihanna closed the star-studded show with another medley which included Stay and Diamonds.
*UK viewers can watch the awards on MTV at 9pm tonight with the pre-show starting at 8pm.

X Factor hopeful Samantha Lavery splits viewers with some fans labeling her a 'try hard'

X Factor returned to ITV on Saturday with teenager Samantha Lavery being one of the stars of the very first show.
In what has already been a great week for the 16-year-old, thanks to her getting all As and Bs in her GCSEs, we saw Sam audition in front of the new judging panel when the hit ITV show returned for a 13th series.
However, while she got four yes votes from the judges, the audience was split over her talent, with some labelling her a "shouter."
Syco/Thames/Dymond Samantha Lavery had a special guest at her audition for X Factor
Syco/Thames/Dymond The student sang Ellie Goulding's Explosion
One person tweeted saying: "She's got a good voice but is way too shouty!" Another viewer added: "She's trying way too hard, which is causing silly mistakes."
Other fans of the show couldn't believe she was just 16 with one viewer questioning: "Are you sure this lass is still in school?"
There were some viewers happy with her performance though with one tweeter writing: "Wow. What a voice!"
She's trying way too hard, which is causing silly mistakes #xfactor — Sam Ellis (@SamCEllis) August 27, 2016
HER VOICE IS INSANE WOW #XFactor — shan (@niaIllz) August 27, 2016
The student, who hails from Durham, took her granddad along with her to the audition for moral support, and confessed that it was through him that she learned to sing.
Samantha told the cameras that her grandfather was a singer too and when he was younger he even had the chance to perform in front of the Queen.
Unfortunately, due to family circumstances and a lack of money, her grandfather gave up on his dreams of being a singer and instead headed down into the pits as a miner. X Factor's Louis Walsh teases Sharon Osbourne about her many facelifts as the judges return
ITV Ellie's granddad could have been a singer himself
Syco/Thames/Dymond Samantha dedicated her audition to her grandfather
He only took the job so that he could support his family, but Samantha hopes that she can make it through to the live shows for him.
Samantha sang Ellie Goulding's Explosions and dedicated the track to her granddad, but how did she fair with the judges?
The new look show opened with a trip down memory lane as past winners and competitors flash across the screen giving inspiration to this series' crop of talent.
ITV Will Sam have done enough to progress?

Meet Chiara Biasi, Simone Zaza's stunning WAG who is moving to London after striker's West Ham transfer
| null | null |
www.mirror.co.uk

Simone Zaza has completed his move to West Ham - and coming to London with him is his stunning WAG Chiara Biasi.
The fashion blogger was with Zaza, 25, as he completed his initial season-long loan deal to the Hammers, although there is a clause in place that will ensure his permanent stay.
Zaza's career has been closely followed by Chiara, 26, who regularly comments on his performances and hits back at trolls online.
She is a popular figure in Italy and has amassed over 1.1million followers on Instagram, where she has posted a series of saucy bikini snaps.
Chiara actually has a significant amount more followers than Zaza himself, who has 760k, despite his status as a top footballer.
Instagram Chiara has been with Zaza in London
Instagram She has updated her Instagram with a series of pictures from her visit
Instagram She posed with Zaza after he completed the transfer
Cheeky Chiara clearly has a sense of humour to go with her social media following.
Following Zaza's comical penalty miss at Euro 2016, where he took a series of short steps before blasting the ball over the bar, a fan commented: ”If Simone Zaza makes love like he takes penalties, you just have to say poor girl”.
But the witty WAG immediately responded by aiming a jibe back.
Instagram Chiara appears to be happy to be in London
Instagram She is known for posting photos of her travels on her Instagram account
She said: “Relax, he always finds the right spot.
“There are those like him who miss once and those who miss their whole lives”.
Chiara runs a fashion blog, however she prefers to be known as a 'lifestyle blogger' on her popular website, which she started when she was 20 years old.
Instagram She has amassed over 1.1million Instagram followers
Instagram It is over 300,000 more followers than Zaza himself
She is very open on the Internet, using all sorts of social networks to share her movements around the world.
On her website, she describes herself as a very curious woman who is also passionate and determined.
Zaza became the Hammers 11th summer signing when the move was confirmed on Sunday morning, taking the club's spending past the £60million mark this summer.
Instagram Chiara regularly posts updates on her whereabouts
Instagram She accompanied Zaza ahead of his move to West Ham
His arrival is a major boost for Slaven Bilic, who has spent much of the summer looking to strengthen his forward line.
Zaza scored five goals in 19 Serie A games for Juventus last season, but was largely used as a substitute by manager Max Allegri.
“I want to thank everyone for welcoming me including the fans and everyone at the club," said Zaza following his arrival. "I wanted to start a new experience and I feel this is the right choice for me.
Getty Images Zaza completed his transfer to West Ham over the weekend
Getty Images He is unlikely to feature against Manchester City, however
“I have been fortunate enough to have already played at the new Stadium with a different shirt. It is a beautiful stadium and I felt the warmth of the fans and this was a big reason why I wanted to join the club.
“I want to become a better player and I know I can do that at West Ham. Unfortunately we could not qualify for the Europa League, but I am hoping I can help the club do that next season.”

Mel C reveals why she'll never do another Spice Girls reunion
Mel C has revealed why she'll never be part of another Spice Girls reunion.
Mel and mum-of-four Victoria Beckham both declined to join Mel B, Geri Horner and Emma Bunton in the upcoming 20th anniversary reunion due to take place next year.
And Sporty Spice says the girls should have hung up their performing shoes at the 2012 Olympics.
In an essay for LOVE magazine , the 42-year-old admits she would love to relive the band's former glory and also acknowledges it would be a big earner for her.
Instagram Geri, Mel B and Emma will be reuniting next year
Rex Five become three
"But we were a five-piece band. Didn’t we reach a peak with the Olympics?” she continues.
“There’s a lot to be said for bowing out on a high note. For me, the absolute pinnacle of my Spice existence was being watched by a billion people around the globe belting out Spice up Your Life on top of a black cab at the 2012 London Olympics. Anything less than the full line-up just didn’t feel like we’d be doing justice to the band or the fans.”
Mel recalls her many meetings with Mel B, Geri and Emma about the reunion before eventually deciding against it.
"The hardest part for me was letting people down, the girls, the fans, civilisation?! Unfortunately something didn’t feel quite right and I had to follow my gut," she adds.

Mel, who admits that her solo projects will never reach the success of the Spice Girls, added that she will still of course always love the girls and support them.
Elsewhere in the essay, she talks candidly about her early struggle with fame.
"You see, I’m a singer and songwriter. Not a celebrity. The two are very different things. You can earn a fortune being a ‘celebrity’ depending on how much dignity you want to keep in tact," the singer writes.

MSU defensive backs injured
| null | null |
www.starkvilledailynews.com
|
Mississippi State received some tough news concerning two defensive backs.
Seniors Tolando Cleveland and Cedric Jiles each went down with injuries last week.
Cleveland has a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee that will have him sidelined for the year. Jiles broke his right arm, but Mullen said there’s a possibility he returns before the end of the season.
That means that other defensive backs like Jamoral Graham will have to step up for the Bulldogs.
For more on the injuries and a story on Graham, see Thursday's Starkville Daily News.

The faulty levee at the Oktibbeha County lake could see repairs in the near future, if supervisors approve bids next week for the first phase of the project.
The first round of work to repair 800 feet of the levee was estimated to cost around $1.5 million. The lowest bid of $693,324, opened Thursday was entered by Cadamy Contracting, a group which recently completed work at the MSU golf course and on Chadwick Lake on campus.

Mississippi flag comes down at MSU
| null | null |
www.starkvilledailynews.com
|
Mississippi State University is the latest state school to take down the Mississippi state flag from campus locations. The flag has been controversial for years as the last state banner to include the Confederate battle flag in its design.
Below is a statement released Tuesday by university spokesman Sid Salter:
"Since 2001, Mississippi State University’s Faculty Senate. MSU's Student Association governing bodies and MSU’s administration have supported changing Mississippi’s state flag. Despite that institutional support, the voters of Mississippi did not approve the 2001 voter referendum effort to change the state flag.
After the 2015 church shooting atrocity in Charleston, South Carolina, MSU’s leaders – administration, faculty and students – renewed their efforts and have again through direct contacts and the sharing of formal resolutions called on the duly elected state leaders who are constitutionally authorized to change the state flag to proceed on that course. The Mississippi Legislature has not yet chosen to address the issue of the state flag.
MSU President Mark E. Keenum has been outspoken in expressing his heartfelt personal support for flag change and has maintained an open dialogue with those representing diverse points of view on the question of the state flag, including the state’s elected officials and higher education governance.
Under our process of shared governance, the leadership in our individual colleges have flexibility in making decisions about operations under their jurisdiction. In keeping with that process, requests were made recently to replace the Mississippi flag in several locations with a larger American flag to better conform to our very large American flag which flies over the Drill Field (MSU's primary campus green space), and Dr. Keenum approved those requests.
Dr. Keenum has said repeatedly that the issue related to whether Mississippi should change its state flag is not going to be resolved on our campus. That decision rests in Jackson with our elected leaders. Our focus at MSU should be and will be directed toward meeting the needs of the all-time record student enrollment this fall and on advancing our core mission of teaching, research and service.
In our historic Perry Cafeteria, in the interior rafters, there is a longstanding display of the flags of all 50 states and a large number of foreign countries representing the home states and countries of our students. The Mississippi state flag is still part of that display."

This is probably not a long-lost photo of Billy the Kid. More likely, it's the portrait of a proud young farmer or early Mississippi A&M student. But who? Does anyone have this picture in an old family album, or recognize those eyes and cleft chin in the features of a grandfather?
If so, let us know at [email protected] and we'll put your answer in next week's edition.
This picture and next week's are provided by Kirk Rosenhan, county fire services coordinator.
Last week's picture, also a Rosenhan contribution, featured 22 people standing in the MSU Mitchell Memorial Library. Two readers wrote in to identify the occasion and some of the faces.
“The picture in today's paper is the Templeton family,” Dora Herring wrote. “The white-haired lady front and center is Mary Ann Templeton, wife of Charley Templeton who donated stuff for the music museum on the MSU Library fourth floor. She is deceased but many of these live in Starkville now. I think the picture was taken in the museum and not the Grisham room … could be wrong … and the occasion was probably the opening of the museum or something to do with that donation.”
“You will get this one solved!” Larry Jones correctly wrote. “My guess is this was a presentation of Charles Templeton's music/musical instrument collection to the University. Pictured, left to right: E.O. Templeton (Charles Templeton's brother); skip next two; Charles Langston (a son-in-law); skip three; Chip Templeton and Connie (son and daughter in law); others don't know.”

www.starkvilledailynews.com
|
With temperatures expected to rise into the 90s and heat indices close to 100 degrees Saturday, Mississippi State Athletics has announced a number of measures to help ensure the safety and well-being of fans attending Saturday's season-opener against South Alabama in Davis Wade Stadium.
Each ticketed fan will be allowed to bring into the stadium up to two personal-size, clear water bottles or one clear reusable personal water bottle of 32 ounces or less.
Cash-only kiosks throughout the stadium will be selling reduced price water. A 12-ounce bottle will cost $1, while a one-liter bottle will go for $5. There will be an abundant supply of bottled water available for sale.
Cooling fan stations will be located at the concourse midpoint on each level of the stadium.
Other measures will be implemented to make sure the environment is safe for fans.
For details, see Wednesday's Starkville Daily News.

Kosciusko man arrested in nun murders

www.starkvilledailynews.com

Rodney Earl Sanders, 46, of Kosciusko, has been charged with two counts of capital murder in the case of two nuns found dead in Durant.
Mississippi Bureau of Investigation agents arrested Sanders late Friday after extensive questioning, according to Warren Strain, communications director for the Mississippi Department of Public Safety.
“Sanders was developed as a person of interest early on in the investigation,” Lt. Col. Jimmy Jordan, MBI director, said in a news release. “With the cooperation of the Durant and Kosciusko Police Departments, Holmes County Sheriff’s Department and the Attorney General Office this heinous crime has been resolved.”
Sisters Paula Merrill and Margaret Held were found stabbed to death earlier this week at their home, about 18 miles west of Kosciucko. They worked as nurse practitioners in a nearby clinic.

Find the Rock event in Stephensville
| null | null |
www.daily-review.com
|
On Aug. 20, a group of volunteers held a Find the Rock event at the Stephensville Park. Children were asked to bring their painted rocks several days earlier, and these were hidden in the grass around the playground area. The event was to celebrate the latest craze going around the state, where kids paint rocks with colors and sayings and hide them in public places. This particular Find the Rock event was also an opportunity for the children and residents of the Stephensville and Four-Mile Bayou communities to release balloons in honor of the policemen who have fallen in the line of duty. Volunteers for this event were Tracy Legendre, Loretta Duval, Dorothy Giroir, Connie Giroir, Madison Giroir, Kelly Eisenman, Olivia Baio and Judy Giroir. Pastor Herb Stanley delivered a prayer just before the balloons were released. On hand for the Find the Rock celebration was Deputy Ricky Acosta .

Gov. Edwards to address seniors
| null | null |
www.daily-review.com
|
Area senior citizens will have a chance Monday to hear Gov. John Bel Edwards speak and learn about how to protect themselves from becoming victims of crime and report incidents of abuse.
District Attorney Bo Duhe of Louisiana’s 16th Judicial District will host a Senior Citizens Educational Seminar from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday at the Cypress Bayou Casino Hotel Pavilion in Charenton. The seminar is free and open to the public. Lunch will be included. Attendees must be at least 21 years old.
The governor’s office confirmed that, as of this morning, Edwards is still scheduled to speak at the event, but his schedule is subject to change. Duhe expects Edwards to speak about what’s going on in the state and how that affects senior citizens.
The district attorney’s office has held the seminar for many years to educate senior citizens on services provided within the district’s jurisdiction of St. Mary, St. Martin and Iberia parishes, Duhe said.
Among the information provided includes protection against phone scams, emotional and physical abuse by caregivers and other criminal activity “that the elderly are generally susceptible to,” Duhe said.
With the increased use of online social media, senior citizens have become more susceptible to online scams, too, Duhe said.
Sometimes, senior citizens are afraid they will lose a caregiver if they report that the caregiver is taking financial advantage of them or abusing them, he said. Caregivers are often family members, and seniors also worry about the effects on the family of reporting an incident.
“The more we educate senior citizens, the more they may be inclined to report (incidents),” Duhe said.
The District Attorney’s Office has staff members who are responsible for investigating reports of elderly abuse. Those employees first determine if the complaint is credible, and, if so, they turn the investigation over to law enforcement, Duhe said.
Lots of other agencies and entities assist in putting on the seminar. The district is fortunate to have “very active” councils on aging and AARP chapters, Duhe said.

Virtual learning back at local schools
| null | null |
www.daily-review.com

St. Mary Schools Virtual Learning Program enrollment numbers are down this school year. But in spite of district budget cuts, it continues to serve as a viable option accommodating students with schedule conflicts.
“It’s different from school to school, I’m sure,” said Morgan City High school counselor Kimberly Philbrook. “Here at Morgan City High, we have a list of the virtual student classes for the students to choose to take as an elective.
“Now this year with budget cuts, we were kind of strapped a little bit. We were only offering the elective courses to students who needed the class for graduation.”
Overall, the district program’s enrollment numbers have decreased from last year to this year, said St. Mary Technology Facilitator Sue Dupre.
“We’re encouraging traditional students in grades 9 and 10 to take courses at their local high schools,” Dupre said. “Because generally speaking, all the people enrolled are in grades 11 and 12. They need those courses for graduation.
“The part-time students that are enrolled in the program are enrolled because they need these classes to graduate and they’re unavailable at their school.”
As of Thursday, 78 students enrolled in online courses. High school students take classes per semester due to block scheduling. Junior high students take courses for the entire school year.
Nine full-time high school students are taking at least two and no more than four classes this semester. The number of high schoolers enrolled part time and taking one or two courses is 59.
On the junior high level, one student is taking five courses full-time in the program. Nine junior high students are taking one class online and is considered part time.
The total course enrollment delivered by the virtual learning program for fall 2016 is 104. The course with the largest number of enrolled students is science, with 31. Career and technical courses follow with 28 students.
Twenty-one students are enrolled in the other course categories, which includes foreign language, fine arts survey and STAR I and II.
The subject with the fewest students is social studies, with 5. And only seven students are enrolled in English courses.
“As a counselor, I make sure the kids have all the required courses that they need to graduate,” said Franklin High school counselor Bridget Madison. “And if there’s an issue, then we resort to possibly getting them to take it on virtual school.”
Approximately 20 teachers are working with the program. The instructors are paid a stipend for the services because it’s an additional responsibility they take on after traditional working hours.
An online instructor can have at least one student or as many as 15 to 20 students.
Students can begin taking virtual learning courses in junior high school.
“We have a few students at Patterson Junior High in band,” Dupre said. “And they never get a chance to take the computer literacy courses, like keyboarding, because their elective is band.
“Some students at Patterson Junior High requested to take our online courses for seventh and eighth grade in keyboarding or Journey into Careers. Some are working with the gifted teacher and some are working at home.”
There’s a misconception about how kids get enrolled in the program, Dupre said.
Dupre only processes the application. Everything prior to that is done on the school level.
“These kids are just part of the program,” Dupre said. “It’s not a school.”
As for taking courses online, “it’s required, if either one or two things are happening. We may not offer the course because they’ve transferred to us from another school or out of state where they’ve taken a previous course and they need the next course in line.
“Or there’s a schedule conflict with a course that they need with some other courses that they’re taking. So that’s the alternate route for them to get the course.”
“I love that flexibility of having options when their schedule has a big conflict,” Philbrook said. “So, not only is it elective courses, sometimes they take core courses when it’s a conflict.”
The Virtual Learning Program serves as a tool to keep students on the path of graduating on time.
“I encourage whatever is in the best interest of the child consulting with the parent,” Madison said. “But I definitely let them know every option that’s available to them.”
Students seem to love the virtual option.
“They do. They love the classes,” Philbrook said. “In fact, I was speaking with some the other day and they’re like ‘Ah, we wish we could take all of our classes like this.’ But they do, they like it a lot. It’s a different environment. It’s flexible. ...”

Water parade participants must register

Staff Report
Boat owners who want to take part in the Louisiana Shrimp and Petroleum Festival water parade must register in advance at the festival office, 715 S. Second Street.
You’ll need to fly the special identification flag provided by the festival office at no charge. The flags must be visible for the judges.
Among the rules for participating:
Please stay on either side of the river, away from the center of the waterway (to allow king and queen vessels to make their way into the area to begin the parade.) When these large offshore supply vessels are on site and begin circling in front of the Berwick docks, this will signal the start of the parade. The Blessing of the Vessels will take place in front of the Berwick docks.
The parade route is circular, starting at the Berwick Docks, traveling upriver on the Berwick side all the way to Conrad’s, circling to the Morgan city side going downriver under the highway bridges, then circling upriver on the Berwick side. (See the map included) The parade route is made of an inner circle and outer circle. Large, supply vessels will be located in the inner circle and smaller craft on the outer circle.
For your safety and the safety of the other vessels, please don’t shorten this circular pattern.
At approximately 10:45 a.m., the king and queen vessels will break off from the parade in front of the Berwick Docks and maneuver their vessels bow to bow for the traditional champagne toast. It is imperative that all other vessels stay clear while this maneuver is being executed.
At this point, all vessels should point into the current to maintain their position in honor of the Royal Champagne Toast. In addition, the media will be recording this historic event from the Berwick wharf area; therefore, please do not position your vessel directly in line with the bows of the royal vessels on the Berwick side of the waterway.
Please remember: the bow-to-bow toast in the river current is a difficult maneuver. The skippers of these vessels will need you to stand well off to allow them room to maneuver quickly should they need to. Do not position your craft directly up river or down river of them and give them plenty of room.
Please refrain from sounding your horns until the king and queen’s glasses touch, at which time you are encouraged to make as much noise as possible!
The Louisiana Shrimp & Petroleum Festival & Fair Association assumes no liability for vessels and pleasure craft participating in the parade. All skippers are responsible for the safe operation of their craft and the safety of their crew and passengers.
All Coast Guard regulations and rules must be followed. You must have life jackets for everyone on board and all other Coast Guard required equipment. The Coast Guard, Sheriff’s Water Patrol, and the Wildlife & Fisheries will be on hand to regulate the parade and patrol the area. All three agencies have the authority to direct traffic and give citations. No personal watercraft (jet ski-type craft) will be allowed.
Please monitor Channel 18 on your VHF radio and KQKI 95.3 on your radio. For emergencies, use Channel 11.
Please remember to fly the registration flag so that authorities will know that your vessel is registered for participating. No vessel will be allowed into the waterway during the parade that is not registered and flying the registration flag.
Awards will be presented for the Best Decorated Vessels for Pleasure Craft, Shrimping Vessel, and Marine Vessel. The winners’ names will be announced at 3 p.m. Sept. 4 from the Petroleum Heritage Stage.

Patterson man sentenced to 60 months for scheme to commit tax fraud
| null | null |
www.daily-review.com
|
A Patterson man was sentenced to 60 months in prison Monday for his role in a scheme to use stolen identities to file false tax returns and pocket refunds, U.S. Attorney Stephanie A. Finley said in a news release.
Louis W. Carbins Jr., 37, of Patterson, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Dee D. Drell on one count of conspiracy to defraud the United States, seven counts of theft of government money and one count of aggravated identity theft. In addition to jail time, Drell sentenced Carbins to three years of supervised release and ordered him to pay $43,045.31 to the IRS and $2,196.71 to Patterson State Bank in restitution.
Carbins was found guilty on all charges after a three-day trial that ended May 25.
According to evidence submitted at trial, from February 2013 to August 2013, Carbins and co-defendant Laphrida T. Watts, 40, from Morgan City, but who currently resides in Palmdale, California, knew and allowed individuals from overseas to use stolen identities to file tax returns, Finley said.
The overseas individuals then directed the IRS to deposit the refunds into Carbins’ bank accounts. Carbins and Watts would then wire some of the money overseas and keep the rest. The IRS issued more than $815,000 in refunds to Carbins’ accounts. Carbins and Watts spent $45,681.22 of the funds, Finley said.
Watts pleaded guilty Jan. 13 to one count of conspiracy to defraud the United States and one count of aggravated identity theft. She faces up to 10 years in prison and three years of supervised release for the conspiracy count and an additional two years in prison for the identity theft count. Watts is scheduled to be sentenced Sept. 26.
