Question: 7th Heaven actor Jeremy London arrested for alleged domestic violence

Mallrats and 7th Heaven actor Jeremy London has been arrested for alleged domestic violence.
London was booked in Jackson County, Mississippi Friday on one count of domestic violence simple assault, which is a misdemeanor.
Jackson County Sheriffs Office released the 45-year-old’s mug shot but said no further details will be released at this time.
A representative for the actor confirmed his arrest to PEOPLE.
“Earlier today, authorities in Jackson County, Missippi intervened in a private marital matter, resulting in the arrest of Jeremy London on a misdemeanor charge – standard protocol in an attempt to diffuse an emotionally-charged situation,” London’s spokesperson told PEOPLE.
“An isolated incident, today’s events will be addressed privately by Jeremy and Juliet London and will be used to guide their decisions as a couple moving forward.”
In 2012, London was charged with spousal battery stemming from an incident in which he allegedly roughed up his wife at the time, Melissa Cunningham, during an argument about their 5-year-old son in Palm Springs, the Desert Sun reported at the time.
According to documents obtained by TMZ, who was the first to report the news of his most recent arrest, the incident erupted after Cunningham objected to London’s taking their son to breakfast, saying that the son did not wish to go.
London, whose twin brother Jason is also an actor, then allegedly pulled Melissa’s hair, the papers said, and struck her on the side of the head.
In light of the charges, a rep for London told PEOPLE in a statement at the time: “The allegation for which this charge against Jeremy London is being filed is false and no such abuse occurred. The facts regarding the incident do not warrant this case moving forward and will prove to be a waste of resources by the DA’s office. Jeremy continues to be focused on his work and looks forward to clearing his name of this allegation.”
The charges were ultimately dismissed and the duo divorced in 2014. The actor has since remarried to Reeves.
London, whose struggles with addictions were chronicled on VH1’s Celebrity Rehab, also made headlines in 2010 when he was kidnapped at gunpoint and forced to use drugs. Although his mother and brother make public statements doubting the events, one of his kidnappers in the bizarre abduction eventually pleaded guilty.

Richie's former pal was sentenced to 45 days in jail after a judge ruled that she violated of the terms of her probation in an alcohol-related reckless driving case.

Question: Section of Atlanta interstate buckles, launching motorcycle rider into air

ATLANTA – A section of westbound Interstate 20 in Atlanta is closed after the roadway bulged up from the ground and launched a motorcycle rider into the air Monday afternoon.
The DeKalb County police initially said an underground gas leak caused the “defect” in the roadway in the southeast part of the city.
Fire officials later said crews were pumping concrete into old, abandoned gas lines under the freeway and there was some sort of malfunction that caused a build-up of air pressure.
The air pressure eventually caused the ground under the roadway to surge upward.

Officials with the DeKalb County Fire Rescue confirmed the driver of a motorcycle hit the huge bump and was launched into the air.
Officials said the motorcycle came to a stop about 200 feet from the bulge in the highway.
The motorcycle rider was hospitalized in critical condition after the crash, fire officials said.

Officials said the buckled highway is causing a traffic “nightmare” for westbound travelers.
Just last month, Atlanta had another big problem on a different freeway.
A massive fire caused a section of Interstate 85 to collapse.
Crews said that section of highway would be closed for months during repairs.

DECATUR, Ga. (AP) – Another major highway in metro Atlanta has been closed, this one because an underground gas leak caused the fast lane to buckle.
DeKalb County spokeswoman Sarah Page says the pavement on Interstate 20 buckled in the HOV lane Monday morning, several miles southeast of downtown Atlanta. All westbound lanes are closed until further notice.
WXIA-TV reports the large bump in the interstate is about 3 feet high.
It’s the second time a major highway in the Southeast’s largest city has become defective in the past few weeks. A large fire allegedly set by a man smoking crack cocaine caused overpass on Interstate 85 to collapse a few miles north of downtown Atlanta on March 27.

Question: Traffic crackdown: Nevada, law enforcement presence could triple

Over the next two weeks, Nye County residents can expect to see double or even triple the normal law enforcement presence, the sheriff’s office announced.
Horace Langford Jr./Special to the Pahrump Valley Times The Nye County Sheriff's Office has joined forces with law enforcement agencies across Nevada to crack down on impaired driving. The effort spans from Feb. 1-15.
Over the next two weeks, Nye County residents can expect to see double or even triple the normal law enforcement presence, the sheriff’s office announced.
It has joined forces with law enforcement agencies across Nevada to crack down on impaired driving.
The effort spans from Feb. 1-15 and includes the upcoming Super Bowl weekend.
As part of the initiative, the sheriff’s office says it has an important message for the public. “If you’ll be drinking, designate a sober driver, and if you drive impaired, you will be arrested.”
Increasing law enforcement presence during these weeks supports the overall state goal of reaching zero fatalities.
Nye County residents can help reach that goal by following these safety guidelines, the sheriff’s office said:
■ Designate a sober driver before drinking;
■ Use a taxi, call a sober friend or family member or use public transportation if impaired;
■ Take advantage of local sober ride programs;
■ Call 911 if a drunk driver is spotted on the road;
■ Take the keys or assist in making other arrangements for someone who is about to drive or ride while impaired.
The Joining Forces Program is paid for by Nevada Department of Public Safety, Office of Traffic Safety.
The Nevada Highway Patrol is part of the crackdown, too.
“The Nevada Highway Patrol will increase the number of Troopers on the road to target impaired drivers,” Trooper Jason Buratczuk said. “Residents can expect to see a heavy saturation of troopers during Super Bowl weekend. This is fair warning, make the right decision, drive sober or be prepared to face the consequences.”

PINELLAS COUNTY, Fla. — Drivers call it a “recipe for disaster,” a highway so dangerous its nickname is: “death valley.”
There are thousands of crashes, dozens of deaths and US 19 is one of the most congested roadways in Tampa Bay.
Pinellas County deputies are stepping up enforcement along the highway, targeting distracted, aggressive and speeding drivers. It comes on the heels of our stories showing the sheer danger of driving along the highway.
We asked drivers, every time you get behind the wheel and you're about to pull onto US 19, what goes through your mind?
“Fear,” business owner Ryan Goodman said.
“Chaos,” driver Jim Eicholz chimed in, “That road is like a prescription for disaster."
Friday, it didn’t take long to see the problem. Within a minute of Corporal Wayne Zelinsky running radar, we found a driver zooming down US 19 at 77 miles per hour, that’s 22 miles over the speed limit.
Eicholz says it happens daily, “I’m going 50 or 55, which is the speed limit, and people are passing me like I’m standing still.”
Pinellas County Deputies will spend the next 8 weeks writing tickets, giving warnings and making themselves visible, all in an effort to stop the mad dash down US 19.
“The safer we can make it the better,” Corporal Zelinsky said, “with the number of crashes and fatalities, we just want to make sure people get home at the end of every night.”
The traffic enforcement will run until April 1st along U.S. Highway 19 from Pinellas Park to Tarpon Springs. At first, deputies will focus on giving warnings. Then, starting Thursday, February 15, they’ll switch to citations.
At the end of the initiative, the Intelligence Led Policing Division will analyze crash data to determine the effectiveness of the initiative.

Question: Sydney population grows by over 100,000 in a year for the first time

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

Overseas migration added 84,700 people to Sydney's population in 2017 but, unlike Melbourne, more people left Sydney than moved in, with a net loss of 18,100 people. Most left Sydney for other parts of the state (40,000 people) and 14,400 deserted the Harbour City to go to Melbourne. These shifts are due the cost of living, Professor McManus said. Sydney "growth areas" in the north west (Riverstone, Kellyville, Rouse Hill) and south west (Leppington) continued to quickly expand their population with Leppington now home to 16,352 more people than in 2007 (a 263 per cent increase). There were also places in Sydney where the population declined recently and since 2007. In western Sydney, there were 648 fewer people living around Claymore last year than in 2007, and Erskine Park had 437 fewer residents. In the south west around Illawong near Menai, there was a loss of more than 5 per cent of the population since 2007, and Menai also had 353 fewer people than a decade ago. These changes are due to the "life cycle stages" of an area where the "empty-nester syndrome" sets in, Professor McManus said. "People move into these suburbs with a couple of kids and when the kids grow up and form a household somewhere else, the demographics change."
The area around Parramatta had the largest shifts in NSW for three measurements of regional population growth - the most new overseas migrants (2840), the highest natural increase (565 more births than deaths) and the most internal migration of people moving out (1434) between June 2016 and June 2017. The migrants' movement throughout Sydney is concentrated in some suburbs, such as Parramatta and Auburn, that serve as "landing pads" for thousands of new arrivals while other growth suburbs, such as Kellyville, provide a second more permanent stop in their journey. Western Sydney University associate professor of urban planning Awais Piracha said Parramata was the entry point for many migrants to Sydney because of its access to public transport and the existing ethnic communities from south Asia who provide a support network. "The second stop for many of these migrants after they save some money to buy a house is north west of Sydney, places like Kellyville, Rouse Hill, and other growth areas," Mr Piracha said. "And at the same time, what we could also be seeing [in this data] is a bit of white flight going on, which is where people see too many immigrants, or the density is getting too high, and they decide to leave." The largest movements of people out of suburbs were in the eastern suburbs areas of Kingsford and Kensington (877 and 606 respectively) and in the south west around Lakemba (743), Campsie (642) and Auburn (626). These places saw large numbers of migrants move in - Kingsford and Kensington welcomed 1207 and 1094 people respectively in 2017. And 2720 new overseas migrants moved into Lakemba, Campsie, and Auburn last year.
Concerns about high immigration putting pressure on roads or jobs and ethnic hubs preventing social cohesion are "a problem of perception", Mr Piracha said. "These ethnic hubs, for example in Cabramatta, can be tourist hotspots or places to go for good food," he said. "In the current populist political milieu we are in that [perception of problems] can easily escalate, it is not a serious problem at the moment but it has the potential to be a problem in the future." Australian National University demographer Dr Liz Allen said Australia relies on overseas immigration and the current intake is "about right". "Any cut to the immigration intake could potentially cause economic strife for Australia," Dr Allen said. "We rely on migrants to offset the lack of skills of the local population in particular areas or where locals don't take jobs because they're unwilling to take them. "The problem is Australia hasn't been smart about the population distribution. We might see areas with high proportions of an ethnicity or culture, but over time as people become established and they gain greater confidence they then move around and purchase a home and establish themselves more permanently."

Question: Russian reporter, Ukraine police faked killing

KIEV, Ukraine — A Russian journalist who was reportedly gunned down in Ukraine's capital strolled into a news conference that authorities called Wednesday to discuss the investigation of his death, revealing that the slaying had been staged to foil an alleged Kremlin hit plot.
"I'm still alive," Arkady Babchenko, 41, told startled fellow reporters during the news conference held less than a day after police reported he had been shot and killed at his Kiev apartment building.
Ukrainian police said Tuesday that Babchenko, a strong critic of the Kremlin, was shot multiple times in the back Tuesday, found bleeding there by his wife and died on the way to the hospital. Kiev's police chief said he suspected the journalist was killed because of his work.
Details of the sting operation were not clear, including why authorities decided to go to such lengths to make it look as if Babchenko was dead. The head of the Ukrainian Security Service said the suspected organizer of the alleged hit plot was detained Wednesday, suggesting the bogus killing was aimed at flushing him out.
Babchenko apologized to his wife, who he said was not briefed on the scheme in advance, "for the hell she had to go through in the past two days. There was no choice there, either."
The turn of events brought harsh criticism from Russia and the international media advocacy group Reporters Without Borders.
The journalist group's director, Christophe Deloire, expressed on Twitter his "deepest indignation at the discovery of the manipulation of the Ukrainian secret services. It is always deeply dangerous for states to play with the facts."
Konstantin Kosachev, head of the international affairs committee of the upper house of the Russian parliament, compared Ukraine's allegations to Britain's claims that Moscow was behind the nerve gas poisonings of a Russian former spy and his daughter in England. Russia vehemently denies poisoning Sergei Skripal and his daughter, Yulia Skripal.
"The logic is the same — to defame Russia," Kosachev told the state news agency Tass.
Neither Babchenko nor Ukrainian Security Service chief Vasyl Gritsak provided details of how they staged Babchenko's injuries or made his wife believe he was dead.
The movie-like twist came as Gritsak convened the news conference to announce the security agency and the police had solved Babchenko's reported slaying. He then confused everyone there by inviting the supposed slaying victim into the room.
To applause and gasps, Babchenko took the floor and apologized to the friends and family who mourned for him and were unaware of the plan.
"I'm still alive," he said. "I know that sickening feeling when you bury a colleague. I'm sorry you had to go through this, but there was no other way."
Before ushering Babchenko into the room for the big reveal, Gritsak said investigators had identified a Ukrainian citizen who allegedly was paid $40,000 by the Russian security service to organize and carry out the hit. The unidentified Ukrainian man in turn allegedly hired an acquaintance to be the gunman, Gritsak said.
The man allegedly paid to organize Banchenko's killing was detained Wednesday, he said, showing a video of the arrest.
Gritsak said killing Babchenko was part of a larger alleged plot by Russian security services. The Ukrainian man also was supposed to procure large quantities of weapons and explosives, including 300 AK-47 rifles and "hundreds of kilos of explosives," to perpetrate acts of terror in Ukraine, he said.
Babchenko said he was not allowed to go into the details of his false death. He said Ukrainian law enforcement had been aware of a contract on his head for two months. He said he was approached by the Ukrainian Security Service, or SBU, a month ago.
"The important thing is my life has been saved and other, bigger terrorist attacks have been thwarted," he said.
Babchenko, one of Russia's best-known war reporters, fled the country in February 2017. He spoke and wrote about needing to leave Russia because of threats against him and his family. He said his home address was published online and the threats he received were made by phone, email and social media.
Moscow's annexation of Crimea and support for separatist insurgents in eastern Ukraine were topics on which the journalist was scathingly critical of the Kremlin. His flight from Russia came several months after he wrote in a Facebook post that he wasn't sorry members of a military band and state television journalists died in a plane crash on their way to Russia's military base in Syria.
Several Russian lawmakers said at the time that Babchenko should be stripped of his citizenship over the comment, and Russian state media called him a traitor.
Ilya Ponomarev, a former Russian lawmaker who also moved to Ukraine, said Babchenko continued being threatened after he settled last fall in Kiev, where he worked as a host for the Crimean Tatar TV station.
Babchenko did not take the intimidation too seriously, Ponomarev said Wednesday before the fact that the slaying was staged came out.
Ukrainian Prosecutor General Yuri Lutsenko lashed out Wednesday at Ukrainian politicians and civil groups who accused the government after Babchenko's faked assassination of allowing contract killings to happen.
Hours before pretending to have been fatally shot, Babchenko wrote on Facebook that he narrowly escaped death exactly four years ago when the Ukrainian military refused to take him on a helicopter heading to the front line in eastern Ukraine. The aircraft was shot down minutes later.
"I was lucky, it was my second birthday," he wrote Tuesday.
Gritsak, the security service chief, ended his remarks Wednesday congratulating Babchenko on his "third birthday."

A Ukrainian military pilot was facing a Russian allegation regarding the 2014 downing of Malaysian Airlines flight MH17. Police has said that pilot killed himself at his home in Mykolaiv, near the Black Sea on Monday , Ukrainian media report.
Capt Vladyslav Voloshyn was blamed by Russia over the shooting down of the flight, and called the allegation a lie. According to Dutch investigators, a Russian Buk missile had destroyed the Boeing 777 jet, leaving 298 people dead.
His wife reportedly said she heard gunshots and contacted an ambulance. But paramedics failed to save Voloshyn.
There are reports that claimed that a military service pistol was recovered at the scene. Experts are now examining the pistol.
The 29-year-old SU-25 fighter pilot had reportedly been working at Mykolaiv airport after retiring from the airforce. He flew 33 combat missions in a low-flying Su-25 ground attack jet against Russian-backed separatist rebels. Ukraine described him as a war hero, and he received a medal for bravery.
Mykolaiv police posted a statement on Facebook, describing Voloshyn’s death as "suicide." Under the premeditated murder article of the country’s criminal code, his death is under investigation.
The New Daily reported Voloshyn as saying that he was the victim of a smear campaign when Russian officials alleged it was his plane that shot down MH17. The airliner was shot down on July 2014 over Ukraine. Of the 298 passengers and crew, over two-thirds were Dutch, flying from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur.
Another Russian theory states that it was a Ukrainian military Buk missile that downed MH17. Some independent experts said the evidence pointed to a Buk fired by a Russian military unit or pro-Russian rebels. The Joint Investigation Team (JIT) wants to put the suspects on trial in the Netherlands. That is fraught, however, with legal difficulties.
Ukrainian media quoted family members as saying that Voloshyn had been feeling depressed. Ukrainian journalist Yuriy Butusov took to Facebook to praise him (in Russian) as an exemplary pilot who had fought bravely against the Russian-backed rebels.
"He didn't let himself break down, he wasn't depressed at all - he always acted as an exemplary officer,” he wrote, adding he did not hear him speak of any enemies or unresolved problems and is happily married and adored his family. Butusov said Voloshyn had bombed Russian paratroops during the battle of Ilovaisk in August 2014. Over 300 Ukrainian soldiers died in the fighting there, BBC reports.

Question: Rory McIlroy: No excuses for not performing well at Dubai Duty Free Irish Open

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

Rory McIlroy admits he will have "no excuses" for not performing well in this week's Dubai Duty Free Irish Open.
McIlroy won the title in 2016 but has missed the cut in four of the last five years, during which time he has had to juggle his duties as tournament host of the £5.3million event.
"I've cut back from a few things off the golf course," McIlroy said in his pre-tournament press conference at Ballyliffin. "It's not that we're not doing them, I'm just maybe not as involved in some of the stuff.
"There's been a couple of times where I just haven't felt as prepared as I could have been walking on to the first tee on Thursday. So I got here Monday morning, practised Monday afternoon and all day yesterday.
"I've done my work. So there's no excuse about not being prepared or not, and I've learned that as I went along. I felt I was underprepared at County Down [in 2015]. I felt OK at The K Club I guess. I've learnt as I went along and I feel this year I'm right where I need to be."

Tournament of the Year
It has been an amazing year for Majors and it is very difficult to choose between the Masters and the Open Championship because of the dramatic finishes at both events.
At Augusta, Sergio Garcia finally broke his Major duck at the 74th attempt, beating Justin Rose in a play-off after coming from behind three times on the final round.
Read more: Garcia targets more Majors after Masters triumph
Three months later at Royal Birkdale, Jordan Spieth triumphed in a fantastic see-saw duel with fellow American Matt Kuchar to claim the third leg of a possible career grand slam.
But I have to pick Garcia’s win at the Masters, which saw him follow in the footsteps of his heroes, Jose Maria Olazabal and Seve Ballesteros.
The Spaniard and Rose are among my favourite players on the circuit and it was wonderful to see them go head to head down the stretch on the Sunday.
Player of the Year
For the special nature of his Masters win and many other highlights in a brilliant year, I’d pick Garcia.
The 37-year-old has been a great supporter of the game throughout his career and has been at the top for so long now.
It was heart-warming to see him put on the Green Jacket after finally achieving his goal in such determined style.
Tommy Fleetwood also deserves a mention for winning the Race To Dubai. But while the Masters was the highlight of Garcia’s year, he also won two more titles – the Dubai Desert Classic and an emotional victory on home soil at the Andalucia Masters – to run Fleetwood close in the European order of merit.
Breakthrough of the Year
Jon Rahm is in a league of his own here. The Spaniard arrived on the scene like a meteor in 2017, winning three events including the DP World Tour Championship.
By the middle of his first full season playing on the main tours Rahm had gatecrashed the top 10 of the world rankings. Now he is No4. No rookie has ever achieved as much as he has this year.
The US college-educated powerhouse from the Basque Country, 23, is a hugely exciting player who has everything in his armoury. And the best news for Europe is that he’s ours.
Other highlights
Young Irishman Paul Dunne had an exceptional year, climbing from 275th in the world to inside the top 80.
The undoubted highlight was a final round of 61 at the British Masters in October that saw the 25-year-old hold off a charge from Rory McIlroy and claim a first European Tour title.
Another of the rounds of the year came from Ross Fisher.
The Englishman carded a record 61 at the Old Course at St Andrews, although that sensational performance still wasn’t quite enough to prevent Tyrrell Hatton defending his Alfred Dunhill Links Championship crown.
Players to watch in 2018
Having landed their maiden Majors this year it will be interesting to see how Justin Thomas and Brooks Koepka fare with the difficult task of following that up in the next 12 months.
Fellow American Rickie Fowler is another I’ll be keeping an eye on after his incredible 11-under-par final round earned him the Hero World Challenge earlier this month.
Dustin Johnson remains world No1 after his fantastic start to the season – will he recapture that form?
No2 Spieth, meanwhile, is closing in on him and will complete the career grand slam if he wins the US PGA Championship.
From a European perspective, I look forward to seeing how Rahm, Rose and Fleetwood continue their fine seasons and how McIlroy bounces back from a disappointing year.
As much as any player, though, in 2018 I’m excited about the return of Tiger Woods.
He looked fit and healthy, and holed lots of birdies in his comeback a fortnight ago. Tiger is most definitely one to watch.

Question: Wynne and Liberals excel at fake news

Represent the article to find a fitting news title

Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne and her cabinet ministers excel at alternative facts and fake news.
The latest example was Finance Minister Charles Sousa’s speech Thursday to The Empire Club, part of which boasted about how the Liberals saved Ontario’s electricity system by doing the heavy lifting needed to improve it.
As a result, Sousa said, Ontario’s electricity grid is now “the envy of North America” because the Liberals restored “integrity and reliability” to it, unlike neighbouring Canadian provinces and the rust belt states.
Simply put, what on Earth is Sousa talking about?
Hydro One controls the transmission of electricity through 29,000 km of hydro lines in Ontario and provides electricity to 1.3 million customers.
In her December, 2015 annual report, Ontario Auditor General Bonnie Lysyk said between 2010 and 2014, Hydro One customers experienced 24% more power outages, lasting 30% longer, while costs to run the system increased by 31%.
She described Hydro One as “consistently one of the least reliable among large Canadian electricity distributors”.
She said its maintenance backlog increased by 47% and power outages by 7%, between 2012 and 2014.
Lysyk reported the risk of power failures was increasing because Hydro One hadn’t replaced $4.5 billion in transmission assets, “that have exceeded their planned useful service life”.
In 2014, former Ontario ombudsman Andre Marin reported that trying to get straight answers out of Hydro One on its horrendous customer billing practices, following complaints by 10,000 customers, was like, “wrestling with a slippery pig”.
He said Hydro One had issued more than 100,000 incorrect bills, covering everything from unexplained billings, to “catch-up” bills, “estimated” bills, multiple bills and over-billing.
Wynne is now selling 60% of Hydro One to the private sector, putting it beyond the scrutiny of the auditor general and ombudsman.
Sousa said the government now realizes electricity rates are too high, which is why its cutting them by a total of 25% in June (by increasing the province’s debt to subsidize them).
While Sousa didn’t mention it, prior to this announcement, the Liberals claimed electricity pricing in Ontario was in the middle of the pack compared to Canada and the US.
Hydro Quebec does an annual comparison of electricity rates in major cities, standardized for a monthly consumption of 1,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh), with all prices in Canadian currency.
Its 2016 survey found electricity prices for residential customers in Toronto of 17.81 cents per kilowatt/hour and in Ottawa of 16.15 cents per kilowatt/hour.
That was higher than in Vancouver (10.70); Calgary (10.40); Edmonton (10.37); Regina (14.65); Winnipeg (8.43); Montreal (7.23); Halifax (15.88); Moncton (12.50); Charlottetown (16.02); St. John’s (11.96); Seattle (13.62); Portland (13.94); Chicago (15.19); Nashville (14.28); Houston (11.25) and Miami (11.67).
The Toronto and Ottawa rates were lower than in San Francisco (31.05); Detroit (20.24); Boston (27.69) and New York (29.52).
Thus, according to Hydro Quebec’s major cities’ survey, Ontario’s residential electricity rates are the highest in Canada and only in the mid-range when you add in American cities.
An accurate statement in Sousa’s Empire Club speech regarding hydro was that the system needed upgrading when the Liberals came into power in 2003 because of past neglect by governments of all stripes, including Liberals.
But much of it was firmly in the realm of alternative facts and fake news.
lgoldstein@postmedia.com

Rev up your engines because this campaign is heading into the home stretch and things are getting very interesting.
So far, this campaign has been frustrating for Ontario Liberals. On the one hand, most Ontarians have had a visceral negative reaction to Doug Ford and his vision for this province. But on the other hand, many voters seem to have an underlying desire for change that has driven them into the arms of the NDP, at least for now.
READ MORE: Growing number of Ontarians want a majority government, Ipsos poll says
I have written previously in this space about the myriad of economic risks associated with an NDP victory, so I won’t rehash those again.
In the days ahead, Liberals need to keep reminding Ontarians what’s at stake. While a growing number have decided that they shouldn’t vote for Ford and the PCs, they need to be convinced that they ought to vote Liberal. As we have seen before in this province, change for its own sake can be dangerous.
ELECTION PANEL: Ontario election political panel debates who won final debate
That’s the point Kathleen Wynne tried to make during last Sunday’s leaders debate. She did precisely what she needed to do, delivering a performance that might be able to put her back into this race as we head into the final week.
Wynne demonstrated why Ontarians elected her to a majority government in 2014 — her honesty, depth, and understanding of the complexity of government. As she defended her record, she was a stark contrast to the canned political speak coming from Ford and Andrea Horwath. Wynne stuck to that tone for the rest of the night — speaking directly to voters in an honest, unfiltered way about her values and her plan. It was passionate, intelligent and deeply personal. And that’s important because neither Horwath nor Ford appeared ready for prime time.
COMMENTARY: Tom Parkin says NDP’s momentum comes as voters reject Doug Ford’s ‘man of the people’ act
Ford was barely present. Sticking to pre-programmed slogans, he had no explanation for why he hasn’t released a costed platform and time and again he advertised the fact that he simply isn’t suitable to serve as premier of this province. Ford looked and sounded like a kid who hadn’t prepared for a book report and came to class with his Coles notes. Premiers don’t have the luxury of Coles notes.
WATCH: Kathleen Wynne to Doug Ford “Have you been to a daycare?”
Horwath wasn’t much better. While her grasp of key issues is stronger than that of Ford, she suffers from the fact that her party is beholden to a rigid ideology based in 1970s left-wing activism.
This was made clear in the signature exchange of the debate when Wynne took Horwath to task for her unwillingness to stand up for the public interest and say no to public-sector unions. Horwath simply couldn’t explain why she would take away the vital tool of back-to-work legislation to deal with strikes that carry on too long and hurt too many people.
WATCH: Wynne, Horwath spar over collective bargaining in final leaders debate
After the exchange, Horwath looked shaken, unsure of herself and ultimately appeared unprepared to govern. Worse, she confirmed that when push comes to shove, she’ll follow public-sector union leaders first and the people of this province second. For those thinking about voting NDP, that exchange should cause them to think again.
With a week to go in an election that has already been filled with volatility and surprises, Wynne’s debate night was the kind of event that might just kickstart a comeback, and at the very least provide some much-needed momentum to local Liberal candidates fighting tight battles across the province.

For example, this week’s Ipsos poll shows the Ontario Liberals have regained the lead in the city of Toronto. If this trend continues and Liberals keep a laser-like focus on ground game, including voter contact, Wynne may just be able to pull a rabbit out of a hat.
Don’t get me wrong. This campaign has not been great for Liberals thus far, despite a top-notch war room and election tour. Now is definitely not the time to slack off.

The 34-year-old, named World Rugby Player of the Year after helping South Africa win the 2007 World Cup, has been sidelined for much of the season at his French club Toulon.
"The inevitable moment has come knocking on my door and I've welcomed it in for a drink,” Habana wrote on Instagram.
"It's been more than a year of hoping, trying, pushing and willing to get back on the field for one last time, to taste the sweet victory or encounter that gut-wrenching despair.
"To hear the roar of the crowd or grab the pill out of the air. To make that last bone-crunching tackle or score that last game winning try.

JOHANNESBURG Lions centre Rohan Janse van Rensburg will undergo surgery on Friday and miss three months of action after suffering a ligament tear in his knee, his team said on Thursday.
“He will be out for approximately 12 weeks after being injured in the Super Rugby match against the Stormers in Cape Town on Saturday," the club said in a statement. "He has a lateral collateral ligament tear and posterolateral corner injury.”
It rules him out for the rest of Super Rugby’s regular season but he could be back in time for the playoffs for the Lions, who were runners-up last year and top their conference standings in the current campaign. They begin in July.
It also means the 22-year-old, who made his international debut for the Springboks against Wales in November, will miss out on potential selection for the three-test series against France in June.

Question: Man says he was stranded, surrounded by lava for 12 days before being rescued by helicopter

LANIPUNA GARDENS, Hawaii – Allen Bertram built his Lanipuna Gardens home nearly 25 years ago. When lava ravaged his neighborhood almost two weeks ago, he lost nearly everything.
“I look outside, I see a river of lava going down the street flowing 10 miles an hour. I opened the door and it came inside the house,” Bertram said.
With only the clothes on his back, Allen says he grabbed his dog and quickly ran uphill to safety.
“We slept outside and we waited until morning and then ran up to my neighbor’s mac nut orchard,” Bertram said.
Trapped by lava, the only way to his neighbor’s was to scale over fences.
“I had to throw my dog over the fence but then he bit me and ran away,” Bertram said.
His dog, missing. Bertram searched for shelter.
Over the next 12 days, he barricaded himself in neighbor’s garage, surviving off of canned foods stored in their pantry.
“I was surrounded by lava, just hoping for the best,” he said.
Hoping to capture the attention of the helicopters flying above, Bertram says he put out a distress signal he’d learned from a TV show.
“I did three garbage can lids bright red and marking paint and a red shirt as a flag. I was praying that I was going to get rescued,” Bertram said.
Just this past Saturday, his prayers were answered.
Firefighters spotted Bertram from the air, lifting him to safety.
“Thank God… best day of my life, very grateful to be alive,” he said.

Question: The Worlds Most Popular Rugby League Website

GIANT DAZ wrote: And if Hoyle was such a big fan he could have bought his club sooner saving Ken having to save it but chose to do nothing, riding in later like the knight in shining armour to be the hero.
Town fans conveniently forget Ken saved their club while Hoyle watched it go to the wall.
In my opinion it should be Hoyle answering questions like where the hell were you when we needed you most ?
Why were you only interested in buying the club once someone else had done the work and made it a viable purchase ?
He's answered that before, and it was because he didn't have the money at the time in 2003 as he was still building a business...Ken as a businessman to be fair, is very smart - I give him a lot of credit there. He used previous HTFC chairman Terry Fisher, Martin Byrne and a couple of others to front the bid to gain popularity, and as soon as it was completed, dropped them completely. People forget there was another viable bid on the table from a consortium fronted by a chap called Paul Haigh. Did Ken save the football club? Yes. Would it have gone to the wall if he hadn't? No... Because there was another viable bid.Ken's purpose in buying the football club was to protect his interest in the HDone project, the stadium and in turn the Huddersfield Giants, and you know what... Fair enough. I've got no problem with that personally, and thanks to Ken for stepping in. But (allegedly) financially draining HTFC for his other interests? ......I'd never call a football club a viable business, especially one who's debt had risen from 1.5m to 7m despite zero playing investment, and one of the lowest wage bills in the division, and one who'd had their greatest asset stripped, and then lumbered with debt and interest payments towards an asset they didn't even own anything of.For all of the great work Ken has done for Huddersfield Giants, his tenure of HTFC was not particularly great. The thing I'm most thankful to Ken for is that he agreed to sell it.As a Giants fan, I'm delighted at the on field progress and him turning a normal Championship club into a top end Super League side, it's just a shame that the crowds aren't coming. Hopefully we can put all of the above to bed and look at a future whereby the district can get behind both teams - and Town fans really have to get over themselves if the sole reason that they're not coming is Ken Davy.

Question: Delaware Auditor accuses school district of wrongdoing

Represent the article to find a fitting news title.

On Thursday information was released by the Office of Auditor of Accounts and in a press release State Auditor Thomas Wagner suggested that both parties did a number of things wrong while moving forward with work completed at the High School. During a brief phone conversation Wagner pointed to an audit on construction which found that Michael Horsey of Common Sense Solutions LLC, had purchased a piece of land for about $110,000 knowing the school was interested and then sold it to Sussex Technical School District for $200,000.
Start the conversation, or Read more at WMDT.

The City of San Diego may have missed out on more than $1 million in the last two years because it has failed to maximize its share of tax revenue from large construction projects, according to a recent audit.
The report by City Auditor Eduardo Luna found that the city’s Economic Development Department has not taken full advantage of a program that allows it to keep all the sales and use tax from large research, manufacturing, or construction projects in its jurisdiction, according to the report released last week. As a result, much of the revenue — perhaps more than $1 million — has been distributed to other jurisdictions.
City officials said they tried in the mid- and late-1990s to target large construction projects for the voluntary tax program, but there was little interest so they gave up, the report said. One of the big challenges was that it cost contractors more to change their accounting systems than they would receive in city incentives to participate.
Auditors pointed out that other cities, such as Santa Clara and Sacramento, have successfully persuaded contractors with large projects to change their accounting so they can participate in tax-capturing programs like San Diego’s.
One tactic that has worked well in other cities is to target large publicly-funded construction projects and make participation in the tax program a condition of the contract, the report said.
Auditors recommended the city put internal controls and processes in place to identify large construction projects and approach contractors. Other recommendations included making participation mandatory in some large city construction contracts.
City officials agreed with the auditors’ suggestions, though they added a couple of recommendations of their own. For example, they said the city would need to hire additional staff to make the auditor’s recommended changes, so they would need to do some analysis to make sure the additional revenue would exceed the new costs.
City officials said they would make the changes by October 2018.

Question: Norwegian aluminum maker apologizes for pollution in Brazil

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — A Norwegian aluminum maker operating in Brazil is apologizing for polluting a river and promising to make changes so that it doesn't happen again.
In a statement Monday, the CEO of Norsk Hydro, Svein Richard Brandtzaeg, called the discharge of rain and surface water into the Para River "unacceptable." Brandtzaeg went on to apologize and say an ongoing environmental review of its practices would be expanded.
The company's plant is located in the city of Barcarena in the northern state of Para. Last month, residents alerted environmental authorities to a reddish hue in puddles and flooded areas near the river after some heavy rains.
Authorities said they found areas of irregular discharge. The company initially said it had not released untreated water into the environment, then said it would investigate.

Question: Feds order external review of Diab case

OTTAWA — Justice Minister Jody Wilson-Raybould has asked for an independent review of an extradition that resulted in Ottawa professor Hassan Diab spending three years in a French jail, only to be suddenly released.
The external review — which has not started — is in addition to an internal "lessons learned" examination already underway, a spokesman for Wilson-Raybould said Wednesday.
French authorities suspected Diab, 64, was involved in the 1980 bombing of a Paris synagogue that killed four people and injured dozens of others, an accusation he has always denied.
The sociology professor and his supporters have been urging the federal government to hold a full public inquiry into the case and to reform the Extradition Act to ensure individual rights are respected.
In a letter Tuesday to Amnesty International Canada and the British Columbia Civil Liberties Association, Wilson-Raybould said Diab was afforded "all of the procedural safeguards" under the Extradition Act and that his charter rights were considered during Canadian court proceedings.
"Nonetheless, due to the three-year-period that Dr. Diab spent in custody in France, I have been reflecting carefully on this case," said her letter, made available to the The Canadian Press by the two rights organizations.
"As you know, Department of Justice Canada officials have undertaken a 'lessons learned' review of the Diab extradition proceedings. I have also asked for an independent external review of this matter."
Josh Paterson, executive director of the B.C. association, said Wednesday he is seeking answers from the minister about the independent review, including whether the findings will be made public.
"Who will be or has been appointed? What is the scope of the review? Will they have the power to require the department to co-operate with them?"
No other information was immediately available from Wilson-Raybould's office.

Question: Scandal-hit Weinstein Co. files for bankruptcy protection

NEW YORK CITY (AP) — The Weinstein Co. filed for bankruptcy protection on Monday with a buyout offer in hand from a private equity firm, the latest twist in its efforts to survive the sexual misconduct scandal that brought down co-founder Harvey Weinstein, shook Hollywood and triggered a movement that spread out to convulse other industries.
The company also announced it was releasing any victims of or witnesses to Weinstein’s alleged misconduct from non-disclosure agreements preventing them from speaking out. That step had long been sought by New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, who filed a lawsuit against the company last month on behalf of its employees.
The Weinstein Co. said it has entered into a “stalking horse” agreement with an affiliate of Dallas-based Lantern Capital Partners as part of its bankruptcy protection filing in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Delaware. That means Lantern has agreed to buy the company, subject to approval from the court.
The company made the filing about two weeks after negotiations to sell the company to a group of investors fell apart. Lantern, which had been one of those investors, has now offered to buy most of the assets of the company and keep on its employees, the Weinstein Co. said.
Other bidders also could emerge, particularly those interested in the company’s lucrative 277-film library, which includes award-winning films from big-name directors like Quentin Tarantino and horror releases from its Dimension label. Free of liabilities, the company’s assets could increase in value in a bankruptcy.
The movie and TV studio becomes the first high-profile company to be forced into bankruptcy in the nationwide outcry over workplace sexual misconduct. Dozens of prominent men in entertainment, media, finance, politics and other realms have seen their careers derailed, but no other company has seen its very survival as tightly intertwined with the fate of one man as the Weinstein Co.
In more fallout over the scandal, New York’s governor directed the state attorney general to review the 2015 decision by the Manhattan district attorney’s office not to prosecute a 2015 case involving an Italian model who said Weinstein groped her.
Weinstein, who was fired as CEO of his company in October, has denied any allegations of non-consensual sex.
Hanging in the balance is the fate of more than 100 employees and several lawsuits filed by Weinstein’s accusers.
Under bankruptcy protection, those lawsuits will be halted and no new legal claims can be brought against the company. Secured creditors will get priority for payment over the women suing the company.
However, the lawsuit filed by Schneiderman’s office will not be automatically halted because it was filed by a law enforcement agency.
The bankruptcy process also will bring the company’s finances into public view, including the extent of its debt. Negotiations to sell the company to a group of investors led by businesswoman Maria Contreras-Sweet fell apart earlier this month after the buyers claimed they discovered up to $64 million in undisclosed liabilities, including $27 million in residuals and profit participation. Those liabilities come on top of $225 million in debt, which the buyers had said they would be prepared to take on as part of a $500 million acquisition deal.
The Weinstein Co. already had been struggling financially before the scandal erupted in October with a news stories in The New York Times and The New Yorker. Brothers Harvey and Bob Weinstein started the company in 2005 after leaving Miramax, the company they founded in 1979 and which became a powerhouse in ’90s indie film with hits like “Pulp Fiction.” After finding success with Oscar winners “The Artist” and “The King’s Speech,” the Weinstein Co.’s output and relevance diminished in recent years. The company let go 50 employees in 2016 and continuously shuffled release dates while short of cash.
Several other executives and all but three members of the board of directors also have left the company. Last year, the studio sold distribution rights for the movie “Paddington 2” to Warner Bros. for more than $30 million.

Question: Nationals assistant hitting coach Jacque Jones suspended

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

WASHINGTON — The Washington Nationals say that assistant hitting coach Jacque Jones has been suspended with pay pending an internal investigation.
The team says the suspension is connected to a legal matter.
The club announced Jones' suspension less than a half-hour before the scheduled first pitch of Game 1 of Washington's NL Division Series against the defending World Series champion Chicago Cubs on Friday night.
The 42-year-old Jones retired as a player in 2008 after 10 years with four teams.

Two of the Marlins’ most prized winter acquisitions landed on the disabled list Wednesday morning ahead of Miami’s series finale against the Rays.
Right hip inflammation pushed center fielder Lewis Brinson to the DL, while a right axillary infection forced right-hander Sandy Alcantara out of action. Brinson was the top overall prospect acquired in the offseason (from Milwaukee in the Christian Yelich deal) while Alcantara is the club’s top pitching prospect (from St. Louis in the Marcell Ozuna deal).
To fill the vacant roster spots, the Marlins activated Jose Ureña from the 10-day disabled list and recalled left-hander Dillon Peters from Triple-A New Orleans.
Brinson said he’d been feeling the injury for the last week or so, but tried to play through it. Tuesday night’s 16-inning game served as a breaking point, though, and the team decided it would be best to silence the nagging injury with rest.
“I got tight hips,” Brinson said. “I call them fast guy problems. For the past couple years of my career, just on my feet, going to get balls in center field, it takes a toll on you. Just something I got to take care of.”
Brinson has struggled in his first full season in the major leagues, slashing .186/.232/.338 with nearly twice as many strikeouts (94) as hits (54). Among qualified major league hitters, Brinson’s .570 on-base-plus-slugging percentage is the third-worst in baseball.
Marlins manager Don Mattingly said the team was concerned about future leg injuries should Brinson change his running stride to account for the injured hip. For a player such as Brinson — a fast and athletic 24-year-old who has much of his value tied up in his defense — his legs will be a big part of his future.
“I kept noticing it, little gyrations in the box,” Mattingly said. “You could tell that hip was bothering him. And then the runs down the line, first couple steps are good and then you can tell he can’t really run. I think our biggest concern was change of gait, hamstrings, stuff like that. It just seemed like ‘Let’s get on top of this right now. Let’s get it knocked out so we can move forward.’”
Alcantara’s armpit infection will prevent him from throwing for four or five days, Mattingly said, and then the Marlins will build him back up to re-enter the rotation. If Alcantara follows a similar path to Ureña, he could return after a two-week absence.
He is eligible to return July 11, since the move was retroactive to July 1.
“It showed up the other day, it got worse and we knew we weren’t going to be able to pitch him,” Mattingly said.
While Brinson and Alcantara could both return just days before the All-Star break July 16-19, Mattingly said the team would “play it by ear” depending on what the games around then dictate. He pointed to Tuesday night’s 16-inning game as an example of changing circumstances that forced the recall of Peters from New Orleans. Peters will serve in long relief for Miami.
Reinforcements on the way
The Marlins won’t be short-handed for long, though.
Third baseman Martin Prado (left hamstring strain) and first baseman/outfielder Garrett Cooper (right wrist contusion) are expected to be activated this weekend when the Marlins visit Washington for a four-game series against the Nationals.
Mattingly said Prado would be making the trip to D.C. and Cooper tweeted that he would rejoin the team in Washington.
“He’s not going on it for no reason,” Mattingly said of Prado.
Prado hasn’t played in the major leagues since injuring his hamstring on May 25. In a rehabilitation assignment, Prado played six games at third base for High-A Jupiter.
Cooper began the season as the Marlins’ Opening Day right fielder, but hasn’t played with Miami since April 1. He played 11 total rehab games with Jupiter and New Orleans.

Question: White House Narrows List Of National Security Adviser Candidates To Replace Flynn

The White House is narrowing its list of candidates to replace former national security adviser Michael Flynn and has already interviewed former CENTCOM deputy director Robert Harward about the vacancy, according to a senior administration official.
The official said they spoke to Harward last week and again on Monday.
"We've been getting our ducks in a row for a long time," the official said.
The comments indicate that Flynn's exit had been anticipated for some time as controversy swirled around his conversation with the Russian ambassador during the White House transition and his subsequent comments that misled then-Vice President-elect Pence about those conversations.
Trump asked for Flynn's resignation on Monday night, citing an "evolving and eroding level of trust," White House press secretary Sean Spicer said during Tuesday's briefing.
Spicer told reporters Tuesday evening that the administration hopes to announce a replacement by the end of the week. But he cautioned that Trump has not yet made a decision.
Robert Harward is a retired Navy vice-admiral who was the deputy director of the U.S. Central Command under now-Defense Secretary James Mattis during the Obama administration. He served on the National Security Council during the George W. Bush administration. As ABC News notes, Harward was the deputy commander of U.S. Joint Forces Command and led Combined Joint Interagency Task Force 435 in Afghanistan. He also led troops in Afghanistan and Iraq after the September 11 terrorist attacks.
Harward is currently the Chief Executive for Lockheed Martin operations in the United Arab Emirates. He's the son of a Naval officer and grew up in Iran, graduated from the Tehran American School. He speaks Farsi.
Other candidates believed to be under consideration for the job are former CIA director and retired four-star Gen. David Petraeus and Keith Kellogg, a retired lieutenant general who was named the acting national security adviser after Flynn's resignation.
Petraeus would be a controversial choice given the scandal that caused him to resign in 2009 as head of the CIA. He pleaded guilty in 2015 to sharing classified information with his biographer Paula Broadwell, with whom he was having an extramarital affair. Petraeus was given two years probation (which runs through April of this year) and had to pay a $100,000 fine, but he avoided jail time due to a plea deal. Petraeus met with Trump during the transition and was in the mix to be Secretary of State. Before his fall from grace, Petraeus was a widely-respected general who helped lead military US strategies in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Kellogg is a retired three star Army lieutenant general who was a foreign policy adviser to Trump's campaign. As NPR's Tom Bowman noted, he served in the Vietnam War with 101st Airborne Division and was commander of the 82nd Airborne. Kellogg also served in Iraq as a leader with the Coalition Provisional Authority, the interim government after the fall of Saddam Hussein.

Question: Ottawa proposes restricted pot labels, packages

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

The federal government says the Canadian public broadly supports the tight regulations it has proposed for marijuana packaging, which will include a bright red stop sign emblazoned with a pot leaf and the letters THC.
Health Canada unveiled the results Monday of a 60-day consultation around its proposed regulations, in which it emphasized a focus on reducing the appeal of marijuana to youth and preventing accidental consumption.
The proposed regulations would require logos to be a single colour, with no metallic or fluorescent finishes. Packages would have to be opaque and child-resistant, with a bright yellow health warning similar to those used on tobacco products.
“We are taking a public health approach to legalizing and regulating cannabis, and we are committed to keeping cannabis out of the hands of children and youth,” Health Minister Ginette Petitpas Taylor said in a statement.
“Measures such as the packaging and labelling requirements announced today will help to achieve this goal.”
READ MORE: Legal marijuana won’t hit shelves before August
Packaging would also have to describe how much active ingredient is contained in the product, including THC and cannabidiol.
Cannabis legislation is currently before Parliament and none of the regulations are final until approved by legislators. Once approved, the restrictions will apply immediately to recreational marijuana, while a Health Canada official says medical marijuana packaging will be granted a six-month window to comply.
The consultation received more than 3,200 online submissions and 450 written responses, as well as input from health and law enforcement experts, governments, patient advocates and industry representatives.
Health Canada also proposed two new categories of small-scale producers — micro-cultivators and micro-processors — where lower-level security requirements would apply to businesses that grow or process smaller amounts of marijuana.
Micro-cultivators would be allowed to grow marijuana with a plant canopy of 200 square metres, which Health Canada described as equivalent to half the space between the blue lines on a standard Canadian hockey rink.
Legislation to legalize recreational marijuana is currently before the Senate, with the federal government hoping to see it passed and given royal assent by early July.

OTTAWA –The House of Commons Health Committee has completed its study of Bill C-45, the government’s bill to legalize marijuana, and has made some tweaks to the government’s proposal, including cutting out the height restriction on homegrown marijuana plants.
The original version of the legislation proposed by the government stated that when growing marijuana plants at home, the maximum plant height would be 100 centimetres. Now, any references to a specific height have been removed from the bill.
During the marathon testimony that saw more than 100 witnesses come before the committee, the point was raised that if a plant owner let their plant grow one centimetre too tall, they’d become a criminal.
Despite a wide range of other serious concerns about the legislation—from the impact on youth and the bill staying silent on edibles, to provinces and police forces’ preparedness—no other substantive amendments were passed.
The committee spent several hours over Monday, Oct. 2 and Tuesday, Oct. 3 considering amendments. The Liberal majority defeated the amendments proposed by the NDP at committee, while the Conservative members voted against all proposed amendments as they are opposed to marijuana becoming legal.
The committee did make more than 20 other mainly technical changes to Bill C-45, including adding the definition of a medical emergency as it relates to a psychoactive substance, for the purpose of exempting people from any potential charges if they call for help.
The legislation will also now be reviewed and reported back to Parliament three years after coming into force.
Other tweaks made were to the wording around promotion and ticketing; and it makes a related amendment to the Non-smokers’ Health Act, to address concerns around marijuana in the workplace. The committee added a definition of work space to essentially be any indoor or outdoor space where employees perform duties of their employment.
The government is eyeing July 2018 as their target to have marijuana legalized in Canada.

Question: Nanomaterials help spiders spin the toughest stuff

Spiders' silk is already tough stuff—just ask your friendly neighbourhood Spiderman.
But now, researchers in Italy and the UK have found a way to make Spidey's silk a lot stronger, using various different spider species and carbon nanotubes or graphene.
The research team, led by Professor Nicola Pugno at the University of Trento, Italy, succeeded in having their spiders produce silk with up to three times the strength and ten times the toughness of the regular material.
Their discovery, published today in the journal 2D Materials, could pave the way for a new class of bionicomposites, with a wide variety of uses.
Professor Pugno said: "Humans have used silkworm silks widely for thousands of years, but recently research has focussed on spider silk, as it has extremely promising mechanical properties. It is among the best spun polymer fibres in terms of tensile strength, ultimate strain, and especially toughness, even when compared to synthetic fibres such as Kevlar."
"We already know that there are biominerals present in in the protein matrices and hard tissues of insects, which gives them high strength and hardness in their jaws, mandibles and teeth, for example. So our study looked at whether spider silk's properties could be 'enhanced' by artificially incorporating various different nanomaterials into the silk's biological protein structures."
To do this, the team exposed three different spider species to water dispersions containing carbon nanotubes or graphene.
After collecting the spiders' silk, the team tested its tensile strength and toughness.
Professor Pugno said: "We found that the strongest silk the spiders spun had a fracture strength up to 5.4 gigapascals (GPa), and a toughness modulus up to 1,570 joules per gram (J/g). Normal spider silk, by comparison, has a fracture strength of around 1.5 GPa and a toughness modulus of around 150 J/g."
"This is the highest fibre toughness discovered to date, and a strength comparable to that of the strongest carbon fibres or limpet teeth. These are still early days, but our results are a proof of concept that paves the way to exploiting the naturally efficient spider spinning process to produce reinforced bionic silk fibres, thus further improving one of the most promising strong materials." "These silks' high toughness and resistance to ultimate strain could have applications such as parachutes". "Furthermore, this process of the natural integration of reinforcements in biological structural materials could also be applied to other animals and

An AI took a crack at decoding the mysterious language of the medieval Voynich manuscript, Chinese scientists used 3D printers to grow new ears for kids suffering from a rare medical condition, and their peers developed a coating for cellphones that could allow scratches to heal themselves. Even in the dead of winter, the world of science is writhing with life.
AI Cracks The Voynich Mystery Manuscript Wide Open

What is it? Computer scientists from the University of Alberta used artificial intelligence to take the first steps toward decoding a 600-year-old manuscript whose meaning has eluded linguists and cryptologists for more than a century.
Why does it matter? The Voynich manuscript, named for the Polish rare-book collector who obtained it at one point in its history, presents two inscrutable puzzles - a set of unrecognizable letters coded in an unknown language - wrapped into one 240-page book. Computer scientists and cryptologists alike are hoping that the algorithms used to partially crack the Voynich manuscript will also unlock other textual mysteries.
How does it work? First, the AI program studied the UN's Universal Declaration of Human Rights in roughly 400 different languages to identify patterns. From there, AI concluded that the Voynich manuscript was written in Hebrew and then encrypted. Next, the scientists worked off a hunch that the texts used an alphagram (where letters in a word are rearranged alphabetically, e.g., COOLEST is CELOOST) to devise an algorithm to turn each word into real Hebrew. After polishing up the language with Google Translate, the computer scientists came up with this opening gem: 'She made recommendations to the priest, man of the house and me and people.' It's a start.
3D-Printed Ears

What is it? Chinese researchers used 3D printing to grow ears for five children who suffer from microtia, a congenital condition where the external ear is deformed or completely missing.
Why does it matter? Microtia, which occurs in roughly one in 5,000 births, can impair hearing and is tough to treat. Patients must undergo reconstructive surgery using cartilage from their ribs or wear a prosthetic ear made from plastic. This new procedure could offer kids another option.
How does it work? Scientists took a CT scan of each child's fully formed ear and used its mirror image to 3D-print a mold for housing biodegradable scaffolding. Then they filled the scaffolding with cells taken from the child's deformed ear and cultured those cells for three months. Once the lab-grown cartilage began to resemble the patient's ear shape, doctors implanted the new ear onto the patients. 'We were able to successfully design, fabricate, and regenerate patient-specific external ears,' the researchers wrote in their study, which appears in the journal EBioMedicine.
Miniature Robots Powered By Moisture

What is it? Researchers at Seoul National University in South Korea have created tiny robots - called hygrobots - that run on moisture. Though they look like primitive animal shapes fashioned out of office supplies, hygrobots can move themselves across surfaces by creeping like inchworms or wriggling like snakes.
Why does it matter? Medical scientists have longed dreamed of using autonomous microbots to treat patients internally. However, no one wants to swallow a device with a battery that might go awry. A bot that runs on moisture is perfectly organic (not to mention gluten-free), and its simple design enables 'autonomous yet directional locomotion,' according to its creators. To demonstrate the hygrobot's potential, researchers loaded it with antibiotics, then placed it in a petri dish full of bacteria. The hygrobot cut a path free of bacteria.
How does it work? Inspired by plants that move in response to moisture, such as self-burrowing seeds, scientists built the hygrobots out of a nanofiber consisting of two layers, each of which responds differently to moisture. When dampened, the first layer will stretch and expand, while the second remains unmoved. That tension triggers an up-and-down movement strong enough to send the bot crawling forward.
Laser Vision
What is it? Electrical engineers at Brigham Young University have devised a new laser system that can create free-floating images that, unlike holograms, appear three-dimensional from any angle. That means the ethereal shape of Princess Leia in 'Star Wars' could become a reality. Cue the joyous cheers of sci-fi nerds everywhere.
Why does it matter? Holograms may appear three-dimensional, but they are actually created by bouncing light from flat images at angles to create the illusion of depth - one that's only convincing from the right vantage point. The new images actually occupy a 3D space, appearing right no matter where the observer stands. Hovering 3D images could help heart surgeons hone their skills without cutting open a patient, or Olympic skiers could record their performance and review details as minute as the placement of their pinkies. Advertising would never be the same either. Imagine how enticing a 3D visual of an iced latte would seem on a hot summer day.
How does it work? Researchers trap a single particle of cellulose within a nearly invisible laser beam, which allows them to move it through the air. Next, a second laser swoops in to shine red, green and blue lights onto the cellulose, which 'the particle scatters in all directions,' according to Science News. The particle moves rapidly enough through the air to make the shape it traces appear solid at any angle. So far, the new laser system can only generate images the size of a fingertip. However, the researchers expect to scale up very soon.
Smartphone, Heal Thyself

What is it? Scientists in China recently wrote in the ACS Nano journa l that they invented a new 'smart' coating for consumer goods that combines the healing property of skin with the wear-and-tear strength of tooth enamel.
Why does it matter? Selling products that can repair themselves has long intrigued manufacturers. The problem is that most 'smart' coatings are made of soft polymers that wear out quickly. Harder materials are resilient but too rigid to weave themselves back together. A coating that can do both unleashes a whole new market of consumer devices - like a cellphone capable of fixing its own scratches.
How does it work? Like human skin, the coating consists of layers. The inner layer is supple and dynamic enough to self-heal. The outer layer consists of the same chemical components but includes a dash of graphene oxide to keep it rigid. According to the researchers' study: 'The hybrid multilayers can achieve a complete restoration after scratching thanks to the mutual benefit: The soft underneath cushion can provide additional polymers to assist the recovery of the outer hard layer, which in turn can be a sealing barrier promoting the self-healing of the soft layer during stimulated polymer diffusion.' Aside from healing itself, the new coating can also kill bacteria.

Just how much are each of the most popular TOWIE stars earning?
The salaries of the stars have been revealed - and we reckon they may shock you.
The Mirror has divulged the earnings of the stars, and we reveal them for you below:
Megan McKenna
Megan has cemented her position as Essex queen.
From the media storm over her relationship with – and eventual split from – co-star Pete Wicks to her own beauty range, Mouthy By Megan, Megs has been raking it in since hitting the big time.
Before joining TOWIE she was thought to be worth around £285,000 – but then she got paid an estimated £30,000 for her CBB stint and has had a successful collaboration with clothing line Miss Pap.
Megan is also just about to open her first ever restaurant, McK Grill, in Woodford.
Gemma Collins
Gemma may well be a secret millionaire, given her various TV appearances – she got paid for her three days in the I'm A Celebrity jungle in 2014 and has presented on This Morning, as well as doing a stint in Celebrity Big Brother .
Her own Brentwood boutique shop carries her plus-size fashion range, Gemma Collins' Collection, which continues to do well.
She made headlines in 2016 after a fan accused her of charging £12 for selfies, but something's working for her – she's now estimated to be worth £2.7million.

Chloe Sims
This mum-of-one is also thought to have joined the TOWIE millionaires' club, having reportedly earned a seven-figure sum from her Essex beauty bar in Brentwood as well as her various modelling shoots and personal appearances.
Amy Childs
Although she didn't stay with the show for very long, Amy's savvy business sense has seen her rack up more than £5million in fashion ranges, tanning products and eyelashes and perfumes.
She also has a fitness DVD and beauty salon.
Joey Essex
He might not be able to tell the time but the star has managed to set himself up for the future with a number of TV deals, including Educating Joey Essex .
The winner of Channel 4's The Jump also owns his own men's and women's clothing store. He was worth just £350,000 in 2011 but raked it in with his fragrances, autobiography and by appearing in adverts.
Joey's thought to be worth £4.5million.
Sam Faiers
Joey's ex may be worth less than him but she's still raking it in after signing a number of fashion ranges and modelling contracts, and made £750,000 alone from a tell-all book deal.
Sam's reported net worth is £4million.
Mark Wright
The TOWIE original boosted his bank balance when he joined forces with wife Michelle Keegan (whose net worth is estimated at £2.7million) to create an unstoppable celebrity power couple.
Ferne McCann
While not as rich as some of her TOWIE co-stars, Ferne's still worth a decent £400,000.
She's made it with various modelling deals, her magazine column for Star, her stint on I'm A Celebrity in 2015 and her presenting for This Morning.
Now that Ferne has confirmed she's pregnant with ex Arthur Collins' baby, the star may well follow Sam Faiers into tapping up the 'mummy market' for lucrative opportunities.
Lauren Goodger
This TOWIE original cast member was one of the first to hit the million mark with her beauty and fake tan range Lauren's Way.
She's since been paid to enter CBB in 2014, appeared in multiple photoshoots documenting her weight loss and gains and is now thought to be worth around £2.1million.
