Question: We can slow it down but your genes are the biggest factor in the ageing process

Shocked by her own test results, Dr Sara Gottfried was spurred on to devise ways of improving her health and slowing down the ageing process, says Áilín Quinlan.
“I’m no supermodel,” insists Dr Sara Gottfried, who is half-Irish — but, it seems, those trendy Celtic genes are no great asset: “I have very resilient genes which allow me to store fat — a little bit too much fat,” she quips.
Genetic testing in her mid-40s (she’s just turned 50), showed Gottfried carries what’s known as the ‘Famine Gene’ which means her body is adept at storing fat and has a tendency towards insulin resistance.
And there’s more: “In fact, obesity, hair-loss, anxiety, and Alzheimer’s disease run in my family,” she says, adding that, essentially, she’s genetically programmed to be “a two-hundred-pound anxious diabetic with thinning hair.”
One glance at the attractive Harvard and MIT-educated physician and gynaecologist who also happens to be the author of two best-sellers, and you’re wondering how on earth she managed to duck that set of curve-balls.
Maybe it’s because a few years ago, at the age of 44, the mother-of-two became interested in things called telomeres.
Telomeres are long trailing strands at the ends of our chromosomes. They start off long and shorten by more than 60% over our lifetime.
“Telomeres tell you how fast or slow you’re ageing — they keep your chromosomes from fraying,” she explains.
If your telomeres become too short, you’re at a significantly increased risk of conditions such as Alzheimer’s Disease, diabetes or cancer.
Gottfried was fascinated by the concept of telomeres and their impact on the body, as well as the idea that the rate at which telomeres shorten can be accelerated or slowed or potentially reversed.
She decided to get hers tested. At the time she was in pretty bodacious shape for a mid-forties mother-of-two, with a body mass index or BMI of 25. Yet the test results came as a huge shock.
“At 44 I was biologically 64 — 20 years older,” she says.
Gottfried couldn’t understand why she was ageing so fast. She knew she worked hard, and that, as a working mother, she had certain unavoidable stresses.
However, she also knew something could — and should be done about it.
“I felt I could be rolling with the punches better,” she recalls.
Gottfried realised that she was navigating a dizzying array of challenges — “crazy work hours, perimenopause, grief, breast lumps, ageing parents, tight clothes, travel, and stress.”
She embarked on a major research programme into the whole concept of ageing, believing that it was time to find a way to fight back against the warning signs of age in the body — worsening vision, thinner skin, weaker lungs, faulty memory — and turn them around.
There are several key factors which make ageing more pronounced after year 40, she says — factors which lead to what she calls ‘inflammaging,’ a combination of increasing inflammation, stiffness and accelerated ageing.
First, there’s muscle loss and fat gain — as your metabolism slows with age, you lose muscle and gain fat.
In fact, you lose five pounds (2.3kg) of muscle per decade. By age 50 you’ve on average lost 15% of your lean body mass.
As for fat, after the age of 35, your body fat rises 1% a year unless you take specific action to build muscle.
In the meantime, ageing means nerve cells lose speed and flexibility so you may find you can’t remember some words as easily as you used to.
Your hippocampus — the part of your brain that engages in memory creation and the control of the emotions — may shrink, especially if you’re stressed. Meanwhile, your hormones are changing for the worse.
With the passing years, men and women also make less testosterone. This results in more fat deposits at the breasts, hips, and buttocks. Women produce less oestrogen, which protects the hair follicles and skin. Lower oestrogen-to-testosterone ratios may trigger hair loss and heart disease.
Your thyroid gland also slows, so does your metabolism — so your weight climbs. Your blood sugar levels also increase, which may result in stronger cravings for carbs.
Your sleep may be affected. Lower levels of oestrogen and testosterone may weaken your bones. And that’s only a selection of the bad news.
The good news, however, is that the right food, sleep, exercise, and support for detoxification can reverse many of the problems associated with ageing, says Gottfried.
She says 90% of the signs of ageing and disease are caused by lifestyle choices — food, exercise, stress management, lifestyle habits — and not genes.
Gottfried — who doesn’t recommend that people have genetic testing, at least until the process is far more comprehensive and sophisticated — did another telomere test recently. After a few years of taking her own advice, that 20-year gap is now down to just two years.
How to look 10 years younger
If you find yourself squinting at labels or struggling to remember words, here’s how to circumvent the ageing process...
Eat well
“Your food can turn on and off the genes associated with ageing and telomeres,” says Gottfried who advises the avoidance of processed foods.
That includes anything that basically doesn’t grow in or run around on the ground. Watch the balance between protein and carbohydrate intake, she says, and don’t fall into the trap of eating too much protein.
Extra protein turns into sugar and raises your blood sugar levels, which in turn shortens your telomeres and ages your skin.
Floss
Flossing twice daily combined with regular trips to the dentist help decrease your mortality rate by 30% to 50%: “Your mouth is the most important part of your personal microbiome. Flossing helps remove bad bacteria from your mouth and reduces your risk of cardiovascular disease,” she says.
Sit less, move more
“Exercise turns on about 6,000 anti-ageing genes so it’s as close to a panacea that we have when it comes to men and women over the age of 35... It tells the brain you’re young even when your hormones are otherwise.
"There are certain obesity genes that get burned off by about 30 minutes of moderate exercise a day but the idea is to do about one to two hours a day.”
Drink a collagen latte
Collagen is an easily digested form of protein that improves skin, hair, and nails. As you age, you break down more collagen than you make, leading to saggy skin, cracking fingernails, dull hair, and wrinkles. Collagen is rich in antioxidants, lowers blood pressure and improves bone density.
Here’s how: Mix 250ml of decaffeinated coffee, or tea with 1 to 2 tablespoons collagen powder. Optional: A tablespoon of coconut oil or medium-chain triglyceride oil, four to six drops of stevia.
Place brewed coffee and remaining ingredients in a blender. Blend for 5 to 15 seconds until frothy like a latte.
Have a sauna
Positive exposure to saunas turns on a longevity gene called FOX03, says Gottfried. “Having a 20-minute sauna four times a week will reduce your mortality by 40% ...
It’s considered a form of exercise because it raises your heart rate.”
Take vitamin D
It’s associated with healthy sleep which, says Gottfried, helps to prevent osteoporosis, mood and reduces restless leg syndrome.
Meditate
“I have a headband that is called the Muse,” says Gottfried. “It costs about €200 and it’s like an EEG on the brain.” The device basically ‘gamefies’ meditation by giving you feedback on how well you are doing your meditation, she says.
“You get feedback on your mental state from the headband and if you reach a certain level of calm birds start chirping — that is your reward for being really calm and meditative — meditation is one of the things that very good for the telomeres!”
Meditation also helps you manage stress, which is extremely ageing, she warns.
“It can age you by a whole decade,” says Gottfried.
Know your ‘WHY’
“For me, it’s about the power of why and connecting to the why. The why is a very valuable touchstone for me to stay on the path. My why is about my kids and wanting to see them when they’re older.
“My great grandmother danced at my wedding and flirted with every man in the room! I think about myself in 25 years’ time and I want to be kind to that future self. I think about the choices I have to make now. Looking after yourself now is all about taking the micro decisions that add up to being kind to your 75-year-old self.”

What are some things science is doing to hack the mind today? originally appeared on Quora - the place to gain and share knowledge, empowering people to learn from others and better understand the world.
Answer by Adam Piore, author of The Body Builders, on Quora:
Before I get to new things, I just want to say that people have been trying to hack the human body and mind since the dawn of civilization itself. The difference is that now we know why some of the old-school techniques work.
I don’t know about you, but over the course of my studies and my career, I have often relied caffeine and nicotine. (Although I quit smoking more than a decade ago and could not use them for my book). People have been using smokes and Joe to to promote mental focus since at least 600 BC. Caffeine blocks a brain chemical called adenosine that promotes sleep and suppresses arousal. Nicotine mimics the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which causes brain cells in our sensory cortex and areas involved in attention to snap to life.
In my book, I detailed some of the cutting-edge efforts to take things to the next level. Outside San Diego, there is a guy named Tim Tully who is trying to develop a “memorization pill.” He and his team are funded by a billionaire named Ken Dart, who is the heir to the Dart Styrofoam empire. They are combing the world for individuals with naturally souped up memorization capabilities. When they find enough, they plan to sequence their genomes to get ideas for possible drugs. I spoke with an 11-year-old boy they found who could tell me what he was doing on my birthday every day for the last four years, and was able to name several people who share my August 1 birthday off the top of his head.
Already Tully has succeeded in genetically engineering fruit flies with photographic memories. He did so by manipulating tiny molecules known as CREB activators. The biology of memory is fascinating, but too complex to get into here. It’s hard to argue with the goal of improving memory – because memory loss is such a scourge to the elderly.
While reporting the book, I also met people involved with a controversial project to find all of the genes involved in intelligence – with an eye towards finding ways to genetically enhance intelligence. It’s a pretty big challenge because there are likely hundreds of genes involved. And many are skeptical these researchers will be successful. But they are trying.
Others are experimenting with deep brain stimulation (DBS) and attempting to develop a new generation of devices that can not only change the firing patterns of neurons with pulses of electricity, but also monitor brain activation patterns. They will be able to detect when something goes wrong (as in the case of a panic attack, or a brain state preceding a depressive episode or even a psychotic one), and respond by zapping the brain back into its normal mode of functioning. Again this is in development. And one could imagine any number of dystopian nightmare scenarios.
But people are trying.

Question: De Minaur, Whittington get wild cards for Australian Open

Represent the article to find a fitting news title.

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) Australian Open organizers have given 17-year-old Alex De Minaur and Andrew Whittington wild-card entries to the season’s first grand slam tournament.
De Minaur, a Wimbledon junior finalist last year, beat top-seeded Mikhail Kukushkin in the qualifying tournament for the Brisbane International, where he is set to make his ATP main draw debut this week. Whittington, 23, achieved a career-high ranking of No. 170 last November after winning six ITF titles and reaching semifinals at two ATP Challenger events.
Other wild cards already granted for the Australian Open men’s main draw include Denis Istomin, the Asia-Pacific Wildcard playoff winner from Uzbekistan, and Quentin Halys of France and Michael Mmoh of the United States, who were given reciprocal wildcards for the French Open and the U.S. Open.

BRISBANE (AFP) - Australia will play Germany in the opening round of the Davis Cup World Group on hard court in Brisbane in February, organisers said Monday (Dec 11).
The tie is expected to pit two of the world's leading young players against each other - Australia's Nick Kyrgios and German Alexander Zverev, the current world No. 4.
Kyrgios led Australia to the Davis Cup semi-finals this year, while Zverev had his best year on Tour, winning 55 matches and five titles, including two ATP Masters 1000 trophies.
"Our tie against Germany will be no mean feat and the boys will need to be in their very best form," Australia captain Lleyton Hewitt said.
The clash will take place from Feb 2 to 4 at the Pat Rafter Arena.

The query could be '['represent text', 'Alabama GOP Senate Primary Tests Reach Of McConnell, Trump']' and should be close to '['this news article should be represented to find a fitting news title\n------\nFor example, The scores placed it in the middle of state rankings. The study included surveys of more than 127,000 adults across the United States.\nStart the conversation, or Read more at WTVM. should be similar to The best place to find your valentine', 'In the Alabama Republican Senate race, every candidate wants to be just like Donald Trump.\nBut in Tuesday\'s primary, the leading candidate sounds and acts more like the president, while it\'s the incumbent, an appointed senator just fighting to make it into a likely runoff, who has Trump\'s actual blessing — but also the curse of being Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell\'s favorite candidate.\nThat\'s the conundrum of the Republican contest, largely seen as a three-way race between front-runner Roy Moore, a controversial former Alabama Supreme Court chief justice; Sen. Luther Strange, appointed back in February to fill the seat of now-Attorney General Jeff Sessions; and Rep. Mo Brooks, who\'s seized on an anti-McConnell platform as the president\'s attacks against the Senate\'s top Republican have intensified recently.\nMoore has consistently polled atop the field, and looks likely to claim a spot in a probable September runoff. His ads sound downright Trumpian, promising to "drain the swamp" and taking a swipe at D.C. elites.\nMoore is well-known throughout the state — and the country — too. He first gained national notoriety when he refused to remove a monument of the Ten Commandments from a state judicial building despite a federal court order; Moore himself was then removed from his position as chief justice of the Alabama Supreme Court in 2003. He won election to the same post again in 2012, but was then suspended after he ordered judges to enforce the state\'s ban on same-sex marriage despite the Supreme Court\'s 2015 decision in favor of gay marriage nationwide under the federal Constitution. He resigned earlier this year to challenge Strange.\nTo state observers, it\'s not surprising that Moore has been able to build a strong following and even expand beyond what might be his typical conservative base in the state.\n"Alabama voters supported Trump because he spoke his mind and said all the things they had been thinking about government," said Brent Buchanan, a GOP strategist and pollster in the state. "Out of all the candidates, Roy Moore has some of those similar characteristics. You may not agree with all of his policy or personal preferences, but you know that Roy Moore is going to do what Roy Moore believes."\nThat\'s why it was so, well, strange last week when Trump tweeted out his support for Strange, saying the incumbent has his "complete and total endorsement!"\nThe senator has benefited from millions of dollars in ads from the McConnell-aligned Senate Leadership Fund super PAC. The very next day after endorsing Strange, Trump started going on Twitter tirades against the GOP Senate leader for failing to pass a bill to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act.\nStrange has tried to prove his loyalty to the president ever since he was appointed under less than auspicious circumstances. As Alabama\'s attorney general, Strange was investigating then-Gov. Robert Bentley for misuse of his office amid a sex scandal when Bentley chose Strange to replace Sessions. Facing impeachment, Bentley eventually resigned, and the new governor, Kay Ivey, moved up the date for the special election to replace Sessions long-term.\nPolling done in the wake of Trump\'s surprise endorsement showed that the president\'s blessing had done little — yet — to move the needle toward Strange. One by cygnal, Buchanan\'s firm, conducted partly after the endorsement, showed Moore still with a lead and high favorables, Strange remained static and it was Brooks who took a hit.\nBuchanan said the Trump endorsement could help Strange turn out some who were less likely to vote on Tuesday, which could be key in what\'s already expected to be a very low-turnout affair.\nAnd the pro-Trump America First Action super PAC also announced late Friday it would be spending up to $200,000 on digital ads targeting Trump voters to encourage them to come out for Strange.\nHowever, although he\'s slipping in polling, Brooks is hoping to turn McConnell\'s fervent support for Strange into a last-ditch way to get into the likely runoff against Moore. He\'s hitched a "Ditch Mitch" banner to his campaign bus in the final days, and in his closing ad he echoes Trump\'s frustration with McConnell\'s inability to push through an Obamacare repeal.\n"McConnell and Strange are weak, but together we can be strong," Brooks says. "Mr. President, isn\'t it time we tell McConnell and Strange, \'You\'re fired?\'"\nUltimately, the Huntsville-area congressman hasn\'t had the resources the other two candidates have had, and he hasn\'t been elected statewide before like Moore and Strange. And, perhaps most damaging, he was certainly no fan of Trump during the GOP presidential primaries last year, during which he supported Texas Sen. Ted Cruz. McConnell\'s super PAC has pointed that out in ads, saying Brooks sided with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass.\nIf Strange does fall short of the runoff, University of Alabama political science professor emeritus William Stewart, a longtime political observer in the state, said that\'s a big problem for McConnell. And, if Strange does make it to the likely September runoff, expect that to be a big point Moore can use against Strange, too.\n"The McConnell support for Strange will not be helpful because McConnell, as the president says, hasn\'t been successful at pushing through the president\'s agenda, " Stewart said. "If Strange doesn\'t make the runoff, that\'s a definite blow to McConnell," more so than Trump.\nPolling shows Moore is still the favorite against Strange in a runoff, and that\'s where the McConnell ties could be the most deadly — and place the president in a more precarious spot given his surprising endorsement. Stewart said it would be interesting to watch how much Trump puts his muscle behind Strange later, and something like traveling to Alabama — one of Trump\'s best states in 2016 — for a rally on the senator\'s behalf would certainly give Strange a boost.\nNo matter who wins the GOP nomination though, they\'ll be the heavy favorite in the December general election, even if it\'s the more controversial Moore. Democrats are expected to nominate Doug Jones, a former U.S. attorney, though he could face a runoff against the aptly-named Robert Kennedy Jr., a Naval veteran who is not related to the famous Democratic political family.\nIf Moore is the GOP nominee, it will be interesting to watch whether the Democrats can make it even a mildly competitive contest — something Stewart, the former University of Alabama professor, said is doubtful, and is emblematic of the problems the party faces overall in the South.\n"Right now the Democratic Party is very impotent here," Stewart said. "I think whomever the Republicans choose as their nominee will be the winner."']' but very far from '['This news article should be represented to find a fitting news title', 'Good morning, here are our early stories:\n-- International Campaign To Abolish Nuclear Weapons Wins 2017 Peace Prize.\n-- Las Vegas Shooter\'s Life Comes Into Focus, But Not His Motive.\n-- Speaking Freely, Retiring Sen.

Question: Middlesbrough 1-2 Arsenal: Sanchez, Ozil save Gunners again

this news article should be represented to find a fitting news title

Sanchez’s free kick put Arsenal ahead in 42′
Negredo answered back 5 minutes into 2nd half
Ozil’s winner in 71′ keeps top-four dreams alive
Arsenal’s quest for a top-four finish has improved ever so slightly from where it stood two hours ago, though the Gunners’ performance in a 2-1 victory away to 19th-place Middlesbrough did very little to inspire confidence and relieve the pressure on Arsene Wenger.
[ FOLLOW: All of PST’s PL coverage ]
After an opening 40 minutes which saw very little in terms of scoring chances for either side, Alexis Sanchez broke the scoreless deadlock with a stunning free kick from 23 yards out (WATCH HERE). Brad Guzan, who returned to the starting lineup for the first time since Jan. 2 (in PL play), couldn’t move as the Chilean’s dead-ball strike cleared the wall and dipped under the crossbar.
The lead was short-lived, though, as Boro pulled level through Alvaro Negredo in the 50th minute. Stewart Downing hit the perfect cross to the top of the six-yard box, Laurent Koscielny whiffed on his clearance attempt, and Negredo beat Petr Cech to make it 1-1 (WATCH HERE).
[ MORE: Watch full PL match replays ]
Following Negredo’s equalizer, any semblance of discipline and game plan from either side went out the window. The pace of the game went through the roof as Arsenal chased three points in their bid to catch fourth-place Manchester City (who are now seven points ahead, having played one more game than Arsenal), as Boro sought the same in hopes of fighting off relegation.
Much like his manager, Mesut Ozil’s future remains very uncertain two months before the summer transfer carousel begins spinning once again. Monday offered Ozil a brief reprieve and the chance to play the role of hero (above video). Sanchez played a lofted ball into the box, which Aaron Ramsey chested down into the path of an unmarked Ozil, and the 28-year-old German international slammed his first-time effort past Guzan.

E.g. ['', "Pensioners stuck with interest-only mortgages and homeowners looking to help children or grandchildren on the property ladder could be offered a new wave of home loans.\nLenders are gearing up to offer retirement interest-only mortgages after the financial watchdog delivered on a promise to relax strict lending rules.\nThese mortgages would help those unable to clear interest-only debts, needing to take out mortgages to move in retirement, or even wanting to pass on an early inheritance.\nUnlike most existing equity release products, such mortgages would prevent debts from rolling up and eating into a property's value by allowing borrowers to pay off interest.\nA change to lending rules man that it should now be possible to use the sale of your home as the way you plan to repay interest-only\nThe launch of such mortgages on a widespread scale would radically shake up lending in retirement, enabling people to more easily borrow against their property's value. However, it is also likely to trigger concern over a fresh bout of mortgage debt.\nPost Office has just unveiled the market's first retirement interest-only mortgage, suitable for borrowers taking a new mortgage, but not those looking to remortgage an existing interest-only loan.\nMeanwhile, Family Building Society is the first lender to confirm plans to launch an interest-only mortgage for those needing to remortgage in retirement, with the lender expecting to be ready around September this year.\nEarly indications suggest that it could offer two options to borrowers looking to remortgage an existing interest-only loan: a long-term variable rate, allowing flexible repayments, and a combination of fixed rates spanning three years, five years and potentially longer terms.\nRival lender One Savings Bank has also confirmed it is keen to offer the loans at some point in the future, with chief executive John Eastgate saying the lender is in 'early stage discussions' about product design and funding options.\nHe said: 'The recent change to regulation is genuinely to be welcomed and opens up opportunities both to help those needing to remortgage existing interest-only mortgages and older borrowers looking to free up some of their wealth to pass on to the next generation.\nI can see interest-only in retirement helping expand the Bank of Mum and Dad and Granny and Grandad John Eastgate, One Savings Bank\n'I can see interest-only in retirement helping expand the Bank of Mum and Dad and Granny and Grandad, especially where they have a lot of equity in their homes and a desire to help kids and grandchildren onto the property ladder before they die and an inheritance is passed on.'\nThis is Money understands several other smaller lenders are also engaging in discussions ahead of plans to launch the deals in early 2019.\nLending into retirement on interest-only mortgages disappeared from the market several years ago after European mortgage rules made it virtually impossible for lenders to offer them.\nBut there is a sizeable chunk of people retiring with mortgage debt outstanding. Late last year the Britain's financial watchdog published research revealing that there are currently 1.67 million full interest-only and part capital repayment mortgage accounts outstanding in the UK.\nThey represent 17.6 per cent of all outstanding mortgage accounts and over the next few years increasing numbers will require repayment.\nFurthermore, the FCA found that 70 per cent of all interest-only and part capital repayment mortgages are held by customers aged over 45.\nAnd the proportion of 45 to 54-year-old mortgage holders with an interest‑only residential mortgage is higher than for all UK adults at 15 per cent compared with 11 per cent.\nAccording to the FCA's own data, those aged 65 and over with a mortgage are also significantly over‑represented when it comes to interest‑only mortgages. They make up one in nine of all interest‑only mortgage holders, whereas overall they are just 3 per cent of the mortgage‑holding population.\nIt's understood that the number of people who have no idea how they'll be able to repay these mortgages could run into the hundreds of thousands, with many of them older and financially vulnerable.\nYoung families looking to get on or move up the housing ladder could get a leg up from their parents or grandparents using a new breed of retirement interest-only mortgages\nWhat's changed on mortgages in retirement?\nIn September last year the Financial Conduct Authority put the European rules under review, admitting they had created a barrier for thousands of credit-worthy retired In borrowers.\nIn order to qualify for an interest-only mortgage, borrowers had to be able to show they have a credible capital repayment strategy, such as savings, investments, another property or enough equity in their home to fund downsizing.\nSelling their home to repay the mortgage when they died or moved into full-time care was ruled out.\nThis meant that even when retired borrowers were comfortably meeting their interest payments each month, they couldn't extend their mortgage term if they were ultimately relying on the sale of their home to repay the debt.\nSome people are really struggling when they come to the end of their existing term and find their lender won't extend the term, instead demanding that they sell up to repay the capital Keith Barber, Family BS\nFollowing its review, the FCA relaxed these rules at the end of March this year, meaning this repayment method can now be accepted by lenders.\nKeith Barber, of Family Building Society, said: 'There is patently a need for retirement interest-only mortgages to come back into the market - especially for those who need to remortgage an existing loan.\n'Some people are really struggling when they come to the end of their existing term and find their lender won't extend the term, instead demanding that they sell up to repay the capital.\n'While the finer details of our retirement interest-only mortgages are still being considered, we are confident that we'll be able to offer these borrowers a flexible option that works for them and helps them in their retirements.'\nWhat is already on offer?\nBorrowers hoping to renew an existing interest-only mortgage in retirement will have to hold on for a few more months, until Family BS launches its products.\nHowever, Post Office has launched a mortgage aimed specifically at helping retired borrowers who want to take an interest-only mortgage rather than do equity release.\nThe lender said the launch of the deal - known as Retirement Link - was not in response to the recent rule change by the lender, which could be why it's only available to borrowers taking a new loan out.\nTo apply, you must own your home outright and have no mortgage.\nThere are two options available - a five-year fix up to 50 per cent loan-to-value at 3.18 per cent for those looking to switch to capital repayment deal.\nAnd a five-year fix up to 30 per cent LTV, also at 3.18 per cent for those looking to stay on interest-only.\nBoth deals have a maximum loan amount of £500,000, are fee-free and come with a cashback offer of £750 to pay for legal fees.\nTo qualify for the repayment deal, you'll have to be over the age of 55 and able to show that you can repay by the age of 90 and for the interest-only version, that you'll repay by the age of 80.\nOwen Woodley, chief executive of financial services at Post Office, said: 'One of our key objectives was to provide a viable alternative to equity release. These deals allow customers to access equity in their unencumbered homes via a mortgage that is paid from their pension income.\n'This gives customers the opportunity to live the life they want, for example undertaking home renovations, gifting a deposit to a child or grandchild or taking the holiday of a lifetime.\nLooking for a better mortgage?

THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) - Dutch police say they shot and wounded a man who was standing on the balcony of a residential apartment block and reportedly was waving an ax and shouting "Allahu akbar."
In a series of tweets, Rotterdam police say the shooting happened early Wednesday afternoon in Schiedam when police tried unsuccessfully to calm the man. When an arrest team entered the apartment, the man attempted to attack them and injured a police dog.
Police say they are investigating the man's background. His identity was not released.
The confrontation came a day after a man in Belgium attacked and killed two female police officers and fatally shot a passer-by.

A man has been arrested in Belgium after he was accused of threatening passengers on a train with an 11-inch blade while shouting 'Allahu Akbar'.
Eyewitnesses reported hearing the man ranting on the train and he is alleged to have shouted: 'Allahu Akbar' and 'We're going to kill all of you'.
Police were waiting for the suspect on the platform as the train arrived at Brussels-South.
They reportedly found him in possession of a knife but noone was hurt during the incident on Monday (2 October).
The suspect is being held in custody on suspicion of being linked to a terrorist organisation.
His detention was extended by one month as the case is being investigated, Mail Online reports
There have been a spate of terror attacks in Belgium in recent months. In August, a knifeman was shot dead in Brussels after attacking a group of soldiers.
And in March 2016 35 people were killed and more than 300 were injured in the Belgian capital when suicide bombers attacked the airport and Maalbeek metro station.

Question: When is a bribe not a bribe? NYC mayor says he did no wrong

Represent this text to find a news title for it

NEW YORK (AP) - Harendra Singh was in a losing battle with New York City over millions of dollars in rent on his waterfront restaurant. So, by his own admission, he opened his wallet and bribed his way out of the problem.
He donated thousands of dollars to the mayor’s election campaign and, as a result, got a meeting with top city officials in which he hammered out a more favorable lease.
Singh ultimately pleaded guilty to a federal bribery charge. The man he admitted to bribing, Mayor Bill de Blasio, was not prosecuted.
That incongruity dogged de Blasio anew over the past week after Singh’s guilty plea, made in secret in 2016, became public for the first time. Reporters peppered the Democrat with questions about how someone could be guilty of giving him a bribe, but him not being guilty of accepting it.
“Everything we did on that matter and everything else we’ve done in this administration was legal, was appropriate. We hold ourselves to high ethical standards,” the mayor said. “The federal government looked at this exhaustively. I’ve got nothing else to say about it. We handled things in the appropriate manner.”
The mayor also suggested that Singh pleaded guilty only because he was in trouble for a variety of corrupt acts, many related to his dealings with political figures on Long Island.
“This man did a lot of bad things in a lot of places,” de Blasio told WNYC radio host Brian Lehrer. “This guy, to save his own skin, struck a plea deal with the federal prosecutors. … He agreed to certain charges for his own self-preservation. But I’ve been 100 percent consistent. What he said happened did not happen period.”
Legal experts said there are pragmatic reasons prosecutors might go after someone who tried to pay a bribe without charging the person who allegedly received it.
“In practice, the bribe payer is almost always the easy case,” said Kelly Kramer, a Washington lawyer who leads the white collar criminal defense practice at Mayer Brown. “The bribe payer has a very clear motive. Often times, you’ll have internal email or text that makes clear what their objective is. The recipient, you tend to have less evidence about their intent. You might have a recording. Lots of other times it’s more ambiguous.”
“Bribery is not just about the payment,” he added. “Proving intent is always the trick.”
The former acting U.S. attorney in Manhattan, Joon Kim, announced last March that prosecutors had concluded there wasn’t enough evidence to charge de Blasio with a federal crime.
Investigators had examined both the mayor’s dealings with Singh and with another businessman, Jona Rechnitz, who admitted buying himself political access with campaign contributions.
Like Singh, Rechnitz pleaded guilty to honest services fraud in a complex case involving a wide array of illegal acts. But one of them, prosecutors said, was buying access to city officials by contributing more than $100,000 to certain political committees. After making the donations, Rechnitz said he got a variety of special favors, including help with a dispute with the city over allegations that an illegal hotel was operating in one of his buildings
De Blasio has also denied that Rechnitz got special treatment and called him a liar.
The Supreme Court made it more difficult to prosecute elected officials in 2016, ruling they had to take an “official act” in exchange for a bribe for it to be illegal. Simply setting up meetings or organizing events for someone wasn’t enough.
Failure to prove corrupt intent led to the collapse this week of the federal prosecution of U.S. Sen. Bob Menendez in New Jersey. Prosecutors said they wouldn’t retry the Democrat on charges that he traded influence for gifts and campaign contributions from Florida eye doctor after a judge ruled that they had failed to show an explicit quid-pro-quo agreement.
One loud objection over prosecutors’ handling of the de Blasio investigation came from lawyers for former Nassau County Executive Edward Mangano, a Republican awaiting trial on charges that he also accepted bribes from Singh.
Mangano’s lawyer filed a legal motion Tuesday demanding that the case be thrown out on the grounds that the government had engaged in “selective prosecution.”
“The new revelations in this case demonstrate: (1) that prosecutors in the Eastern District of New York had both ample evidence and authority to charge Mayor de Blasio; and (2) that they nevertheless made a choice not to pursue charges,” attorney Kevin Keating wrote. “To date, no explanation has been forthcoming as to why this decision was made.”
Assistant U.S. Attorney Lara Treinis Gatz said in a court filing Tuesday that the claim of selective prosecution was baseless.

Associated Press Writer Larry Neumeister contributed to this report.

Will the courts ever again hold a corrupt political official to account? It appears unlikely, now that Sen. Bob Menendez has become the latest beneficiary of the US Supreme Court’s “get out of jail free” card.
In an abrupt reversal, the US Justice Department last week asked a federal judge to drop all remaining corruption charges against the Jersey Democrat.
see also Prosecutors drop corruption case against Bob Menendez The Department of Justice Wednesday said it no longer intends...
This, after another judge dismissed seven of the 18 counts against Menendez and Dr. Salomon Melgen, saying: “There is no there there.”
And after the first trial ended with a hung jury.
Legal experts say prosecutors had little choice: Their case was almost entirely circumstantial, with no cooperating witness, no tape recordings and no videotapes.
The judge himself said prosecutors failed to produce any “facts, either direct or circumstantial,” to prove a quid pro quo: that Melgen lavished expensive gifts on the senator in exchange for political favors.
And yet no one denies that Menendez received such gifts — including free vacations and $750,000 in campaign contributions. Just as no one denied that Menendez personally interceded on Melgen’s behalf on numerous occasions, including visa applications for his foreign “girlfriends.”
But both men insisted there was no corrupt bargain — and that everything was done as part of their 20-year friendship.
And therein lies the problem: In its 2016 McDonnell decision, the Supreme Court leaned over backwards to defend the right of public officials to conduct routine constituent services, even for donors, and essentially give them the benefit of the doubt in judging any such transaction.
But in the process, notes Fred Wertheimer of Democracy 21, the decision “pretty much ignored the interests of citizens in honest government and the dangers of allowing officeholders to sell their office.”
Yes, good friends give each other presents. But elected officials don’t “routinely” get Rolex watches and free luxury vacations.
Already, the Supreme Court ruling has freed William Jefferson, the Louisiana congressman caught with $90,000 cold cash in his freezer.
McDonnell’s impact also tossed the convictions of New York’s two top former legislative leaders, Sheldon Silver and Dean Skelos, and may well make it difficult to convict them in their retrials this spring. And it likely played a critical role in prosecutors’ decision not to bring charges against Mayor de Blasio.
Was Bob Menendez’s relationship with Salomon Melgen corrupt? Ten of the 12 jury members who heard the evidence thought he should be acquitted. But it’s clear that corrupt officials are skating free.
It’s up to Congress to tighten the honest-services laws to ensure that officials face justice for corruption. But it’s going to take a lot of public anger to get lawmakers to make it easier to convict . . . them.

Question: Woman charged in pregnant North Dakota woman's murder pleads guilty

A North Dakota woman pleaded guilty Monday in the killing of a pregnant neighbor so she and her boyfriend could keep the baby, though officials are still saying little about how the victim died.Brooke Crews, 38, could face life in prison after pleading guilty to conspiracy to commit kidnapping and murder and lying to law officers in the death of 22-year-old Savanna Greywind, of Fargo. Her boyfriend, William Hoehn, 32, has pleaded not guilty to conspiracy to commit kidnapping and murder and lying to law officers.He is scheduled for trial in March, which a prosecutor cited as a reason for continuing to withhold information on the case.Crews' attorney, Steven Mottinger, said afterward that the guilty pleas will help his client argue for less than the maximum sentence of life in prison without parole."Ms. Crews early on indicated that she wanted to take responsibility for her actions," Mottinger said. "From where I stand, she took responsibility today by entering a guilty plea to the three charges."Greywind was eight months pregnant when she disappeared in August. Kayakers found her body wrapped in plastic in a river. The baby was found alive in the apartment Crews shared with her 32-year-old boyfriend, William Hoehn. Hoehn is scheduled for trial in March.Crews didn't offer details on how Greywind was killed. Authorities haven't said either, but Fargo Police Chief Dave Todd has said her death was a "cruel and vicious act of depravity."Cass County State's Attorney Birch Burdick said further details aren't likely to be released until after Hoehn's case is finished."As you're well aware, this is one important step in two cases that are intertwined," Burdick said outside the courtroom. "At least our office will be rather circumspect until we've got both cases resolved. Then we can elaborate more fully."Crews initially claimed that Greywind gave up her newborn daughter, but she later admitted taking advantage of the woman to get the child, according to court documents. Crews told police she arranged to have Greywind come to her apartment and told her how to induce labor. Greywind came back two days later to give her the newborn baby, Crews said.But Hoehn told police a different story, according to the documents. He said he came home on Aug. 19 to find Crews cleaning up blood in their bathroom. Hoehn said Crews presented him with an infant girl and said: "This is our baby. This is our family."Hoehn told police he took garbage bags containing bloody shoes and his bloody towels and disposed them away from the apartment complex, according to the court documents. Hoehn is scheduled for trial in March.Authorities have not said how the baby was delivered. The baby is now in the custody of her father, Ashton Matheny, who was Greywind's boyfriend.East Central District Judge Frank Racek on Monday asked Crews about letters she sent to the court complaining about a delay in receiving evidence. Crews told the judge that the issue was resolved."Cases like this we start with initial police reports, lab reports," Mottinger said. "Things come in over a period of time. It's a step by step by process."

Now there's a guilty plea for a woman accused of trying to hire a hit man to kill her ex-boyfriend's new girlfriend.
The Valley News reports Monique Earle pleaded guilty Wednesday to two felonies. Earle originally pleaded not guilty in January and was released on $100,000 bond.
Last year, she allegedly offered to pay an undercover officer to kill the other woman.
The 20-year-old served two years in prison for that scheme which was never carried out.
Earle was staying in a homeless shelter last fall and was also pregnant at the time.

Question: Tampa Bay surrenders 1st hit in 7th against Oakland

This news article should be represented to find a fitting news title.

OAKLAND, Calif. — Tampa Bay right-hander Nathan Eovaldi has not allowed a hit through six innings against Oakland in his first start since having a second Tommy John surgery.
Eovaldi has four strikeouts and 70 pitches. The only hitter to reach so far is Matt Chapman, who drew a one-out walk in the first inning.
Rays centre fielder Johnny Field made a diving catch on a sinking liner from Mark Canha in the third. Right fielder Carlos Gomez made a similar play to take a potential hit away from Chad Pinder in the sixth.
Eovaldi last pitched in the majors on Aug. 10, 2016, for the Yankees. Nine days later, he underwent a second elbow surgery. Eovaldi also had Tommy John surgery in 2007 when he was a junior in high school.

James Paxton wasn’t expecting to win the American League player of the week award, despite a brilliant six days that saw him make two starts, picking up the win in both by pitching a total of 15 scoreless innings, allowing just six hits and striking out 17 batters.
Did he not think his numbers were good enough? Or was there someone he thought had been better?
No. It was for a different reason.
“I actually didn’t even know there was an award for the week,” he said.
Paxton found out about there was such an award when he got a text on Monday morning notifying him of the accomplishment. He will receive a watch from MLB.
“It’s really cool,” he said. “I’m honored. I wouldn’t have been able to do it without the game-calling of (Mike) Zunino behind the plate, he did a fantastic job and the guys making the plays in the field. It makes a full-team effort.”
One of those guys making plays was third baseman Kyle Seager, who has won the AL player of the week award three times. It was mentioned to Paxton, who laughed and said, “Well, how about that. That’s pretty cool.”
Seager could only shake his head at his taller teammate and offer up a few playful jabs, knowing full well what Paxton has done for the Mariners this season. He has yet to allow a run in three starts, throwing a total of 21 scoreless innings to start the season — a franchise record.
Paxton has tossed at least six shutout innings in each of his three starts this season, becoming the 10th pitcher in MLB history since 1900 to do so. Jordan Zimmerman did it last season with the Tigers. Before that it was Woody Williams with the Cardinals in 2003.
The last Mariners pitcher to win the award was Hisashi Iwakuma on Aug. 17, 2015.
“He’s certainly deserving of it,” manager Scott Servais said. “If you look back at where he was last year at this time, it’s been quite a turnaround. Certainly, we saw it in the second half of last season, moving in the right direction and he’s just continued to expand upon it.”
Indeed, a year ago at this time Paxton was in Albuquerque with Class AAA Tacoma having lost the competition for the fifth spot in the rotation to right-hander Nathan Karns. It was with the Rainiers that he lowered his arm slot at the request of pitching coach Lance Painter. It yielded more velocity, better movement and more success. Following his call up in June, Paxton continued to get better with each outing, finding his confidence and his sense of belonging at the big league level.
“I’ve come a long way and I’ve made some big adjustments,” Paxton said. “It’s showing right now. Putting in the work that I’ve put in and the preparation, it’s paying off. It’s nice to see the results follow my process and how I’m going after my starts.”
Also …
Reliever Steve Cishek started his rehab stint with Class AA Arkansas on Monday afternoon. Cishek pitched the first inning of the Travelers’ 3-1 win over San Antonio. Cishek worked a 1-2-3 inning getting a groundball out and two flyball outs.
“The numbers were good,” Servais said of the report he got from Arkansas manager Daren Brown. “He threw the ball well and felt good coming out of it. He won’t pitch tomorrow. He’ll have a day or two down and then maybe get back to back outings in at the Double or Triple A level based on where the schedules are at.”
Servais is still expecting Jean Segura to be ready to return to the lineup on April 21 — the day he is eligible to return from the 10-day disabled list.
“From what I understand he is,” Servais said. “You see him out there taking groundballs and taking a little BP. He hasn’t really gotten after it 100 percent by any means yet. I will get an update from the trainers later in the day, but everything is leaning towards him being available for us when we get over to Oakland.”

Question: Thousands march to demand more money for UK health service

LONDON — Thousands of people have marched through London demanding more government money for Britain’s overburdened National Health Service.
Trade unions and the main opposition Labour Party backed the “NHS in crisis: Fix it now” protest.
Marchers with placards proclaiming “Save our NHS” and “More staff, more beds, more funds” made their way through central London on Saturday toward Conservative Prime Minister Theresa May’s Downing St. office.
Britain’s state-funded health service has been under mounting pressure, with demand from a growing, aging population rising faster than investment. Winter illnesses and an exodus of stress-hit medical staff have led to thousands of cancelled operations and long waits for ambulances and emergency treatment.
The British government says it is putting more money into health care and training more doctors and nurses.

Question: Space Poop Problem-Solvers Take Home Cash Prizes From NASA

On Wednesday morning, NASA rewarded five members of the public — two doctors, a dentist, an engineer and a product designer — for their creative ideas for how to poop in a spacesuit.
Yes, it sounds a little bit funny. But unmet toilet needs could have life or death consequences for an astronaut in an emergency situation.
That's why thousands of people spent tens of thousands of hours on the "Space Poop Challenge," brainstorming, modeling, prototyping and number-crunching to come up with a crowd-sourced solution to the problem of human waste in a spacesuit.
Currently, astronauts on spacewalks rely on diapers, which is a feasible solution for only a few hours at a time. As we explained in November, NASA is imagining a situation where an astronaut is stuck in a spacesuit for days — like during an emergency on future Orion missions, which will take astronauts far from Earth.
The super-portable-bathroom solution had to work quickly easily, in micro-gravity, without impeding movement, for both men and women, for solid and liquid waste. It could either store waste in the suit, or expel it. And it had to be comfortable.
Since the project launched on the HeroX crowdsourcing site back in October, nearly 20,000 people, from all over the world, submitted more than 5,000 ideas. They were competing for a total of $30,000 in prizes.
The winning solution came from Thatcher Cardon, an Air Force officer, family practice physician and flight surgeon. He says his design was inspired by minimally invasive surgical techniques — and a strong desire not to store the poop.
"I never thought that keeping the waste in the suit would be any good," he told NPR. "So I thought, 'How can we get in and out of the suit easily?' "
"I thought about what I know regarding less invasive surgeries like laparoscopy or arthroscopy or even endovascular techniques they use in cardiology — they can do some amazing things in very small openings.
"I mean, they can even replace heart valves now through catheters in an artery. So it should be able to handle a little bit of poop!"
He designed a small airlock at the crotch of the suit, with a variety of items — including inflatable bedpans and diapers — that could be passed through the small opening and then expanded. His design even allows an astronaut to change underwear while inside the spacesuit, through the same small opening.
Cardon used an old flight suit to try some physical proto-typing, and his kids helped gather supplies. They were "totally excited," he says. "They lost their minds when I told them I won."
Second place went to a trio from Houston — a physician, an engineering professor and a dentist (who also served as the team's illustrator). All three had studied chemical engineering in college.
Stacey Louie, the environmental engineer on the team, said the different areas of expertise on the team were central to their solution. But before they fine-tuned their design, they had to discard a lot of ideas.
For instance, doctor and team leader Jose Gonzales says that he immediately thought of some medicine-inspired strategies that would be effective — but not at all comfortable.
"You have to take into consideration, 'Is the astronaut going to be OK with this design?' " Katherine Kin, the dentist and artist, notes. "You have to have something that's psychologically comfortable."
So internal catheters were out. Instead, Gonzales says, they used an air-powered system to push waste away from the body to store it elsewhere in the suit. "More specifically, that air is created by passive and active normal body movements of the astronaut," Gonzales says.
A product designer from the U.K., Hugo Shelley, placed third. He usually works with electronics and tech products, but he says for this contest, he went in the other direction — and tried to build a solution with as few electronic parts as possible.
"I think we're all aware of the dangers of things going wrong in space," he says. A simple design seemed safer, he says.
"My mother's a textile designer so I think I started off really thinking about materials," he says. "Making something as comfortable as possible I thought was fairly important ... a lot of your mechanism really has to be in, effectively, the first few millimeters away from the skin."
His solution, the "SWIMSuit - Zero Gravity Underwear," disinfects and stores waste inside the suit, like the second-place design does.
Cardon won $15,000, while the trio from Houston took home $10,000 and Shelley netted $5,000.
The next step is for NASA to start prototyping the ideas, and get working versions of a waste-management system up to the International Space Station for testing.
Dustin Gohmert, the Orion crew survival system project manager at NASA, explains that NASA will combine existing ideas with elements of the winning designs to create a solution that will, indeed, go into space.
"Optimistically this will never be used, because it is a contingency scenario that something catastrophic has happened," he said. "But this will be on Orion and should something happen, and should it be called on to save the crew, this will be there and at their disposal."
Shelley, the product designer, notes that research on how to improve waste management inside a spacesuit could also be useful in "earth-bound applications" — for people with incontinence or in high-pressure, critical job situations.
And while it was "kind of odd" to think about poop in space for weeks at a time, he says the project was "quite exciting."
"Yes, it's an amusing thing to think about, but still it's a part of a spacesuit — and there's something incredibly thrilling about the space missions," he says.
And, he notes, "you can't fully appreciate being an interplanetary explorer if you've constantly got to use the bathroom and you can't."

Question: Social media harnessed to expose white nationalists at rally

In this week’s roundup: Stories that break the hate.
It’s been a rough week in America. So, this week, we’re highlighting some of the glimpses of hope across the country.
Perhaps the tide is turning? From Tennessee, to Denver, to Virginia, hate groups and leaders have been ostracized, exposed and indicted over the last couple of weeks.
But first: Last Friday we held a Reddit Ask Me Anything on the antifa movement.
We want to expand on that by answering your questions about this new era of hate in America. Send us an email with questions about leaders, ideologies, movements and whatever else. We’ll answer them in next week’s newsletter.
KKK club gets denied a spot in a restaurant
Over the weekend, white supremacists from around the country gathered in Crossville, Tennessee for the annual conference of the influential neo-Nazi internet forum Stormfront.
Crossville locals went to great lengths to make the conference attendees feel unwelcome. And for good reason: according to records collected by the Southern Poverty Law Center, between 2009 and 2014, Stormfront users have been convicted of nearly 100 murders.
Conference attendees were barred from meeting at a local restaurant, The Beef & Barrel, the evening before the official event by the restaurant’s owner.
Organizers initially tried to keep the conference’s location a secret, switching locations inside Cumberland Mountain State Park, but dozens of anti-racist activists discovered the switch and spent the day protesting the gathering.
From USA Today:
“We’ve been coming to Crossville for three years,” said white nationalist Tom Pierce, a former Knox County Commission candidate in Tennessee who received 7% of the vote in his run for office. “There’s been no issues and no one has ever banned us. So what? There’s hundreds of other restaurants.”
Charlottesville rally organizer indicted
The man who organized the Unite The Right rally, Jason Kessler, has been indicted for perjury.
Kessler pleaded guilty to an assault charge in April and received a 30-day suspended sentence.
During a court appearance, he claimed that he was attacked while gathering signatures for a petition demanding the ouster the city’s vice-mayor. However, surveillance video of the incident showed Kessler had instigated the confrontation.
In Virginia, felony perjury carries a maximum sentence of a $2,500 fine and 10 years in prison. He was released on bond on Wednesday morning.
There’s a really good This American Life piece on the relationship between Kessler and the vice-mayor, who is African American.
Evangelical Christian leaders stand up to white nationalists
White evangelical Christians represent the cornerstone of President Donald Trump’s base. Now, some members of this group are leveraging their influence to get the president to take a stand against white nationalists.
An open letter co-signed by 39 evangelical pastors and activists from across the country urged the president to speak out against the the racist elements of his base and inside his administration.
The letter reads, in part:
This movement gained public prominence during your candidacy for President of the United States. Supporters of the movement have claimed that you share their vision for our country. These same supporters have sought to use the political and cultural concerns of people of goodwill for their prejudiced political agendas. It concerned many of us when three people associated with the alt-right movement were given jobs in the White House.
Alt-right ideology does not represent constitutional conservatism. The Constitution promotes the dignity and equality of all people. It maintains that we all have the ability to contribute to a just and free society.
Email leaker exposes how Breitbart intentionally fostered white supremacists
Someone accessed the email account of former Breitbart tech editor Milo Yiannopoulos and leaked it to BuzzFeed, resulting in a blockbuster story about how the right-wing news site actively worked to mainstream white nationalism. The story, which is well worth reading in full, is packed with jaw-droppers about how former senior Trump advisor Steve Bannon groomed Yiannopoulos to be the face of his publication and how Yiannopoulos touched nearly every important corner of the online white supremacist ecosystem.
For example, a video shows Yiannopoulos singing “America The Beautiful” at a Dallas karaoke bar while white supremacist leader Richard Spencer led members of the audience in Nazi salutes.
And when Yiannopoulos was writing a “big definitive guide to the alt-right,” he worked closely with Andrew “Weev” Auernheimer, a notorious hacker who works for the neo-Nazi website the Daily Stormer, and Devin Saucier, the editor of the white supremacist magazine American Renaissance.
Here’s an exchange with Saucier:
“I think you’ll like what I’m cooking up,” Yiannopoulos wrote to Saucier, the American Renaissance editor.
“I look forward to it,” Saucier replied. “Bannon, as you probably know, is sympathetic to much of it.”
Empathy for the racist
Theo E.J. Wilson went on an online mission to infiltrate the alt-right, and he found something he wasn’t expecting: Empathy.
After spending months talking with racists online, the black poet came away with a degree of understanding for the disenfranchised and confused white men he talked to in racist forums and on Facebook.
He blamed the left-wing’s demonization of white males for helping create the alt-right.
“If you are a pale-skinned penis haver, you’re in league with Satan!” Wilson says a new TED Talk.
Wilson’s point is that America’s new young racists didn’t just wake up one day with hate in their hearts. And he implores his audience to go back to their communities and set up discussion groups with people they disagree with — away from their “online echo chambers,” where they can listen to, engage and debunk hateful ideas before they take root in young people.
It’s a must-watch.

Question: UK bad weather shuts schools, cuts power and disrupts travel

This news article should be represented to find a fitting news title:

At least 2,700 schools closed, thousands of homes without power and dozens of flights cancelled after snow and high winds
Snow and ice have continued to cause widespread disruptions across the UK, with dozens of rail services and flights cancelled and thousands of schools closed.
Temperatures are expected to fall as low as -15C on Monday night, having dropped to -12C in some places on Sunday, the coldest day for seven years.
The Met Office extended its yellow weather warnings for snow and ice to cover vast swaths of the country, including London and the south-east, much of the Midlands, Northern Ireland and Wales, as well as the eastern coast of England and northern and western Scotland.
Rail disruption included a temporary suspension of the Gatwick Express, delays on the Eurostar between London and the rest of Europe, and at least 20 cancellations to services in Scotland.
Up to 200 flights from Heathrow were expected to be cancelled, and passengers complained of waiting for hours for travel to be rescheduled.
By Monday afternoon at least seven flights had been cancelled at Edinburgh airport, while Manchester had 13 cancellations listed and Birminghamhad 15.
At least 2,700 schools were closed, including about 300 in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire and south Cheshire, 200 in Shropshire, 200 in Gloucestershire and 344 in Coventry and Warwickshire. All council-run schools in Birmingham were closed.
In Wales, 71 schools were closed in Flintshire, 11 in Wrexham and 49 in Denbighshire. Many schools are expected to remain closed on Tuesday.
While children and teachers stayed at home, nurses at Birmingham’s Heartlands hospital walked for several hours through the snow from their homes to ensure they could work their shifts. Anthony Fearn, a West Midlands ambulance service paramedic, tweeted: “Did you know that some of the nurses at Heartlands hospital are so amazingly dedicated that they walked to work!”
Western Power Distribution said engineers worked through the night to restore power to 99,500 homes in the Midlands, south Wales and the south-west, but 7,000 customers were still without electricity on Monday, 6,500 of them in the West Midlands.
Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks said it had restored power to 48,000 homes, but 800 remained without power in Oxford and Wiltshire. It said heavy snow and winds of up to 70mph caused damage to the network’s overhead power lines.
Highways England declared the main road and motorway network clear. Frank Bird, an emergency planning officer, told the BBC that staff worked 14-hour shifts over the weekend to keep the roads open.
Motorists were warned of havoc on the roads as snow turned to ice. The RAC said it was expecting 11,000 breakdowns on Monday, 20% above the seasonal norm.
“I think the big thing is people are not going to leave enough time,” said its road safety spokesman, Pete Williams. “Journeys will take two to three times longer. It’s going to be treacherous driving conditions.”
Quick guide Top tips for driving in snow and ice Show Hide Stay safe and plan ahead • Charge your mobile phone, fill a hot flask and make sure everyone is dressed for the weather - you may have to get out and walk. • Clear snow from the roof – it can fall on to the windscreen and block your view. Don't forget the lights. • To car thieves, frosty mornings are a Christmas gift. Don't leave the car unattended with the engine running. • Never use boiling water to clear the windscreen – it could crack the glass. • Pull away in second gear, easing your foot off the clutch gently to avoid wheel-spin. • Anticipation and smoothness are key. Apply brakes gently. Drive slowly – stopping distances are 10 times longer. • Stick to main roads, as they are more likely to have been gritted • Watch out for black ice. The road surface can look wet when it is actually frozen. • After the snow: salt used to de-ice roads can cause corrosion to your car over time. Wash it off.

The TUC called on employers not to force staff to make hazardous journeys into work, saying firms should have issued advice to staff on what to do when snow, ice and a lack of public transport prevented them from getting to work.
The Environment Agency in the West Midlands said it would be using its 4x4s to help vulnerable people in areas affected by heavy snowfall. Dave Throup, the agency’s manager in Herefordshire and Worcestershire, tweeted that its staff and vehicles would be “available to help vulnerable people and allow patients to get to medical appointments”.

LONDON: Heathrow Airport said on Monday (Dec 11) disruptions were expected to continue after the heaviest snowfall in four years in Britain caused travel mayhem the previous day, while more than 300 flights were cancelled at Germany's busiest airport.
Thousands of passengers were left stranded on Sunday at London's Heathrow Airport, one of the world's busiest, after the cancellation of hundreds of flights, with many taking to Twitter to complain.
Heathrow Airport said disruptions were expected to continue. "Some flights at Heathrow will be disrupted today due to crew and aircraft being out of position following yesterday’s weather," it said in a Facebook post on Monday.
"We are working with our airline partners to return aircraft to where they need to be and full service recovery remains the focus."
We approach our 4th hour. The wing is buckling under the weight of snow and darkness is slowly descending. Still no sign of help. There is only hope, but that, like the light, is fading. @HeathrowAirport @British_Airways pic.twitter.com/USb1YeWQgV — Hopper Odyssey (@HopperOdyssey) December 10, 2017
British Airways, whose primary hub is Heathrow, had cancelled more than 140 short-haul flights and 26 long-haul flights on Sunday, leaving tens of thousands of passengers detained at the airport.
Meanwhile, Birmingham airport, serving the country's second biggest city, suspended flights for all of Sunday morning, as staff worked to clear the runway in heavy snow. The airport typically handles around 30,000 passengers and 200 flights a day in December.

Swathes of Britain were hit by the snowfall on Sunday, particularly in central and western regions, according to the official weather service.
Sennybridge, in Brecon Beacons National Park in Wales, topped the records with 30 centimetres (12 inches), while Coleshill, close to Birmingham, received 10cm, it reported.
Police forces in worst-hit Wales and central England urged motorists not to travel unless "absolutely necessary" as they dealt with surging calls.
A spokesman for the Highways England agency said there had been road incidents "all over the place". The flurries continued to fall into the afternoon, threatening to block roads.

Meanwhile, light snow and sleet fell through the morning in London, leaving Northolt, on the outskirts of the capital, with a covering of 2cm, the Met Office said.
"We've gone through the worst of it," said spokesman Oli Claydon in the early afternoon. He said the last time Britain saw this much heavy snow nationwide was March 2013, and during the winter of 2010.
In Germany, more than 300 flights were cancelled on Sunday after heavy snow and sub-zero temperatures struck the region around Frankfurt, a spokesman for airport operator Fraport told AFP.
The airport - Germany's largest air hub and the home base for major carrier Lufthansa - had been scheduled to handle a total of 1,260 flights over the day.
Duesseldorf airport was also forced to close for four hours during the afternoon, news agency DPA reported. Meanwhile, trains were delayed, redirected or cancelled across western North Rhine-Westphalia state.
FERRY RUNS AGROUND
In France, a ferry with more than 300 people on board ran aground in high winds in Calais, interrupting traffic in one of Europe's busiest passenger ports but causing no injuries.
Having been stranded for several hours, the P&O vessel was secured and passengers were finally able to disembark after they were given food and drinks.
The ferry, The Pride of Kent, ran aground around noon after it hit a gangway while making to leave for Dover in southeast England.
Five tug boats were used in the operation to free the vessel, as winds gusting at up to 110 kilometres (70 miles) per hour made the task difficult.

Elsewhere in France, 32 departments were placed on orange alert with winds of more than 100 kilometres forecast in some areas.
In the northern Pas-de-Calais and Nord regions, some 20,000 homes were without electricity due to gale-force winds, power provider Enedis said.
Heavy rain also led to the closure of two airports on the French Mediterranean island of Corsica, including the one serving the capital Ajaccio.
Heavy winds lashed northern Portugal. A 45-year-old woman died when a tree landed on her car near the city of Porto, Luis Belo Costa from the national civil protection agency said.
The weather service forecast winds of up to 130 kilometres per hour in the area until Monday morning.

Question: Rabid bat bites 2; alert issued in Port Charlotte - ABC-7.com WZVN News for Fort Myers, Cape Coral & Naples, Florida

A Southwest Florida neighborhood is on alert after a bat with rabies bit two people.
The following areas are under the alert in Port Charlotte: Frederick Avenue, Peachland Boulevard, Broadview Street, Adela Avenue and Beacon Drive.
The two people were infected last Monday while trying to rescue a sick bat that had fallen onto their property.
"I'm worried about (my dog). He's due for his rabies shots, so we're going to get it taken care of right away," said Shari Wooten, who lives off Peachland Blvd.
The bat was sent to Tampa for testing, and it came back positive for rabies.
Charlotte County Animal Control declared the rabies alert for a one-mile radius from the yard the bat was found.
"If you see any animals acting strangely, they appear to be sick, please contact our department, and we will come out patrol the area and hopefully get the animal removed," said Brian Jones, division manager.
Frank Anthony lives in the neighborhood and is concerned for his grandkids. Anthony and his wife recently had a run-in with bats while out for a walk.
"At about 8:15 in the evening, we turned on Nancy Road. I don't want to say thousands, but there were so many bats we ran back home."
Rabies is a virus that attacks the central nervous system. Symptoms include fever, headache, foaming at the mouth and delirium.
"If you see a sick raccoon in your yard or a bat hanging from the tree, we need to know about it right away, and we need to get out of there," Jones said.
The rabies alert will be in effect for 30 days, which means it will expire Sept. 6.
Anyone with questions or concerns is asked to call Charlotte County Animal Control or the Charlotte County Sheriff's Office.

FORT MYERS, Fla. An urban and small stream flood advisory was issued Wednesday afternoon for portions of Collier County and Hendry County, the National Weather Service of Miami said.
